I've been to a few functions here and the staff is amazing. They make sure everyone's needs are met and everything is perfect. The food is fantastic and they even accommodated the kids with meals they would enjoy. Bar 101 is a great place to book for a function or just an evening out.
First off I love it cuz my friend is one of the owners and he's a sweetheart of a guy. Jamie is an incredible cook and has a lot of authentic Italian recipes that have been handed down from his family members . The bar is top-notch with all the best top shelf liquor as well as beers. The Establishment itself Is very modern and has TVs as well as a great sound system. Staff is competent and pleasant to interact with. Very good experience all around. A must visit .
Food and drinks are great. Visit here often but tonight I had the special which was fantastic. Clams over risotto. First of all there were a dozen littlenecks, second flavor was amazing, third $19? Unheard of! This is not bar food- amazing meals at great prices. I should have taken a picture…
I met some friends there yesterday after work. It’s on a main road in Johnston with a strip mall feel to it. Definitely has a local small bar feel to it but I was pleasantly surprised. It was Taco night and got 3 REALLY good tacos for $7.00. I was on the fence about getting 3 more they were so good. Our waitress was awesome. Down to earth and super accommodating. I was impressed with the staff as most places seem to lack people who care these days. Food and drinks were really good and the pricing was great. Will definitely stop back again.
Cute place with great drinks and really nice staff.
Great food. Good drinks. Quick service. Inside a little strip mall but it’s still good. They play like TikTok music inside No blender for the drinks :( but they’re still great drinks and then it’s not loud when someone else orders one lol
We had our 35th High School Reunion at Bar 101. I cannot say enough great things about this place. You must absolutely book your venue there. The side room is perfect for parties. Peter is one of the managers. He worked with us on the perfect menu. All food was excellent and so so SO very good. You must go there to eat. The atmosphere was also fantastic. The place was clean and spacious. Definitely top notch. Noelle was our bartender for the evening. She took a group picture of our class which I truly appreciate. She was super friendly and Kind. She exceeded our expectations. Please do yourself a favor and go there for dinner, drinks or book a party. Their staff are wonderful people ! Everyone had a great time there.
Don't let the word "Bar" fool ya! The food that comes outta here is amazing! Lobster 🦞 ravioli with pan seared scallops in pink vodka sauce 😋 …
Delicious!!! We ordered the prosciutto and arugula pizza and the mozzarella sticks! Yummmm!!!!
