    Just finished dinner on their beautiful patio when it started to rain so we were ushered to a table inside for dessert. Friendly and attentive service, delicious food, inventive cocktails, easy parking. Happy to live nearby. :)

    Nice Saturday brunch outside on patio. Good selections, reasonably priced. Arrived at 2:00, quieted down quickly once the large party next to us left.

    Went for Sunday brunch with friends. Food was very good, but service very spotty. My mimosa did not arrive until after entree. Husband’s entree was incorrectly delivered, so he had to wait for the correct entree to be prepared. Total bill was incorrect and had to be fixed. On the positive side, management was very apologetic and comped the drinks. We will return because of food quality and friendly ambience.

    I had a very enjoyable dinner experience last night at Bar Cino in Watertown. The food, service and ambiance were all high quality. I will return for another experience there soon.
