Bar 'Cino (we say "chee-no") is an informal spot nestled in the heart of Watertown Square with a lively bar and a menu that highlights the green & white of the Italian flag more than the red.A great crowd fills the space nightly - from neighbors, after work folks, and local professionals. Open nightly, plus lunch on weekends.

    Food is good, portions are smaller than you would expect for the price though. Very cool setting.

    The hostess was very polite and helpful. We had reservations, but came early to sit at the bar. We found two spacious seats at the bar. The bartender served us immediately and was very friendly. The food came out quickly. The portion was perfect and the quality was exceptional. I had the risotto and my Friend had the Bolognese. We were both very pleased with our meal and the price was appropriate. I highly recommend this restaurant and I’m very picky.

    Our server was the definition of inattentive, which is the last characteristic you would want to describe your service. We had to flag down other staff to bring us a drink menu as we did not enjoy the Bloody Mary (something I could have addressed had we seen her). Then flag over another person to put the drink order in. At no point did she check in to see if we were enjoying our meal. She then took it upon herself to drop the check as we were not even halfway through our drinks. I had the noted the occasion of my friend’s birthday and it was never acknowledged. Despite the disappointing service our meals were very enjoyable.
