Live music and outdoor dining are possible this summer. Bistango and Bayside restaurants are both still OPEN for business, with regular hours. They are taking advantage of their quite lovely outdoor patios, and have moved their live music outside too!
SUMMER JAZZ SERIES: Fresh air, live tunes, great food. It’s just the mini escape many people need. Under the palms at Bistango and on Bayside’s lush patio, either location is the perfect setting for summer. Bayside has music seven nights a week, plus at Sunday brunch. Bistango features live music from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. Wednesday through Sunday.
TAKEOUT STILL AVAILABLE: Of course, the Ghoukassian family wants to keep all families safe, and understands that some folks just aren’t ready to dine out. Both locations are still doing takeout, with online ordering and safe curbside pickup available.
HI TIME WINE CELLARS COLLAB: Both restaurants have also reinstated their summer collaboration with Hi Time Wine Cellars, as a way to support small, locally-owned family-run businesses. Purchase Hi Time’s wine of the month, and bring it in to dine (with receipt) and the Ghoukassian family waives the corkage fee.
