“We dined early at Bar ‘Cino this evening. It's Restaurant Week, and this place offered three courses for $36; there were lots of choices in all three courses, so we decided to try it. Restaurant Week pre-fixe menus are a mixed bag; many restaurants fail to put their best foot forward in their effort to attract new diners. But tonight's experience was quite the opposite. Among the three of us, we ordered a romaine and kale Caesar, meatballs in polenta and sweet potato frittela first, followed by chicken Milanese, braised pork shoulder and grilled salmon. We closed a vanilla panna cotta and a couple of lemon cakes topped with strawberry mousse. All of the firsts and mains were very good, and some — the meatballs, chicken and pork — were excellent. Unlike many other restaurants running pre-fixe promos, Bar ‘Cino did not skimp on anything. The plates were all generous and in some cases (the meatballs, Caesar and chicken), they were enormous. The desserts were nothing to write home about; they seemed almost institutional in their ordinariness. But whatever, we'd already eaten, frankly, too much. We had a terrific server, Joseph, who was friendly, helpful, personable and relaxed. We enjoyed his repartee. But other aspects of the service were uneven. As common as slow service tends to be, especially in crowded restaurants, it's highly unusual that the service is too fast. But tonight's courses definitely came out too quickly, with virtually no time between them to catch our breath. Plus, the food runner essentially brought the dishes to the table and placed them anywhere there was room — not even placing the wrong choice in front of each diner. It's not that it was a hardship to place the dishes in front of each diner ourselves, but it's not what you dine out for. In all, a wonderful meal and experience. Will definitely be back.“
“Who would think that a hole in the wall pizza shop serves some of the best Greek food in Watertown. Don't get me wrong. There are some fierce competitors, But Johnnie's definitely holds their own. They also serve, hands-down, the biggest calzone I've ever had.“
“The new management have modernized the experience from the long time previous owner. I saw two styles of slices available for reheat and a long list of other entrées.I tried out their Italian sub and was pleasantly surprised at the freshness of all the ingredients. Yes, they bake their own sub rolls and slice the cold cuts to order right in front of you. They also warmed up the roll to put a little crunch into the top.I'm full and satisfied with my first trial item. It won't be my last. I would recommend others try this long term Italian restaurant with the new and progressive owners. Mangia bene!“
“Always great food! All of the staff is friendly and does a great job! I'm trying to try everything on the menu. I try to go once a week at least. Definitely worth going to. My favorite is the mushroom pizza, mozzarella sticks, and chicken parm sandwich.“
“Amazing food, great service, affordable prices and just the kindest person running the shop. Very clean shop and it is made sure that your food is made to perfection. I have been coming here my entire life and will continue to come here and recommend it to everyone I know.“
“I give Frank Pepe's four stars. They lose a star because $15 for a Caesar salad, that is as plain as they come, is not worth 15 bucks, it's boring to eat. The pizza on the other end is delicious and enjoyable to eat. Pick up that salad game and I'll give it 5 stars.“
“This is an excellent place! The people are kind and amiable, as most of us Latinos are.The food is excellent!!I had a torta (is like a big sandwich made with telera bread, spread with refried beans, mine had stake but they also have chicken options, tomato slices, jalapeños). It took me back to my dear Mexico.100% recommend.“
“Standard pizza and sub shop, but the food is delicious, and the service goes above and beyond. My boyfriend and I always order takeout from D&D. They are super kind, efficient, accommodating, and the food is always on point. Would 100% recommendDietary restrictions: Menu options are made to order“
“My order is always 100% correct which is MUCH appreciated. They take attention to detail and the instructions on the order very well. Food is prepared in a timely manner and the delivery drivers are always SO polite, oh and the food is DELICIOUS“
“Staff and service is speedy & great! Not many vegetarian options including protein though, vegetarians need protein too!! They keep the front outside seating part of the restaurant clean and tidy but the playground side w/ the hedges is always FULL of cigarettes butts & trash.“
