On a Tuesday evening, the newly opened Bar 'Cino in Saint Mary's is packed. Families toast across high top tables and groups of friends fight over who can pay the bill. At the bar, a young, dressed up couple nervously navigate their first date, while next to them, a senior couple comfortably embarks on their 1,000th date.

At Bar 'Cino, the Brookline community is doing what it does best, coming together, preferably over a delicious meal. The latest feather in Newport Restaurant Group's cap, Bar 'Cino opened on January 17 and has quickly been embraced by the neighborhood.
