    We had a great experience at Bar’Cino. We brought our friend and her family to celebrate her birthday. We were sat in a lovely booth and enjoyed the fabulous meal. The food is very good and the atmosphere is lively, but not too noisy. We are lucky to have such a great neighborhood place.

    Just exceptional on all fronts. Felt well-taken care of from the moment we walked through the doors. Food was outstanding and was coursed and timed comfortably. Beverage selection is extensive and staff members are knowledgable about offerings or easily access management to help with suggestions. Never felt rushed but didn't feel like anything was dragging. There's a reason why Eastern Standard had historically been an easy choice for just about any sort of occasion, and our experience in their new location picked right up without skipping a beat.

    The food and drinks were delicious. The waitress was friendly and helpful but seemed busy, so finding the same waitress when we wanted to add to our order was hard. Overall, it was delicious, and we enjoyed it as a family, so we'll come again.
