We come here every Christmas Eve and our dinner is fabulous. This year instead of a carafe of red sangria, my husband and I shared a carafe of the Fall Sangria. Unfortunately it wasn’t made properly or well and it was very watered down. No Captain Morgans in it as the description stated, no cinnamon or apple taste whatsoever!! Dinner and desserts and service are always great here. Just disappointed in the sangria.

Christmas Eve tradition continues with the Feast of the Seven Fishes at Bar’Lino in Johnston. It was the perfect venue for Richard and I to bring my mother to so that she could take part in this sacred Italian tradition; and enjoy it she did!! The easy in and out of the location proved super easy for her and the decor was upscale sophistication. The food was plentiful and tastefully prepared. Their version of the seven fishes began with a dish that consisted of-baccala salad, snail salad, calamari and the most tasty smelts ever. The next dish was the perfectly al dente spaghetti and clams. The last course was broiled cod, baked stuffed shrimp and broccoli rabe. We were so full that we did not have room for desert at that moment. However, for those who have been to Pane E Vino, you know how delectable their bread pudding is; so we did get three orders to take home🤗. It was a special evening being able to share this tradition with my mother as I have for the past 67 years❤️.

Great and friendly service, excellent food, with a cozy ambiance.

Great and attentive service. They catered to all our requests. Food was delicious and served piping hot as always. PS-drinks were great and offered some creative selections as well

Extremely quaint and well worth the visit. Food, service and ambience are superb. Very affordable and a great value for the portions and variety they offer. Owner is usually on site and very approachable; a family run business.
