Dematteo's - Rome

I saw EV there. The band was awesome. Need more bartenders on shift for a band like that. You're burgers are the bomb

Great concert going on in the window, so we stopped inside. Was pretty crowded but that's expected for a Friday night.

A great place to meet up with people for a few drinks and some good food.

Mostly a bar but they also serve burgers and chicken sandwiches with rotating specials as well. The food is good. They don't serve fries, only potato chips, which is a miss as far as I'm concerned. If you want a good beer selection, then it's a great place. They have a solid selection of craft beers on tap and full bar service, too. Generally the service is good, but when they're busy it can sometimes be hard for them to keep up. They have an appetizer plate with local Italian bread, hot peppers and sliced provolone that's outstanding. The main part of the bar is old and hasn't been updated in a long time, but the addition is newer with a really nice outdoor patio that is the most recent update to the place.

We were hungry after visiting the Fort Stanwix so we decided to stop by here for lunch. This place is definitely full of mostly locals having drinks. We ordered their cheeseburger and grilled ham cheese sandwich. They do not serve any fries here so our meals came with chips. The food were just decent. The buns on the burger were a bit hard. There was only one bartender who were taking all orders for both food and drinks. She was friendly and polite.
