Was there for Belmont, the Jim Dandy was totally remodeled. Unfortunately
will likey be packed all the time. I used to like to slip in there and grab
an easy drink to watch a few races.
    If you like good old fashioned, Pennells would be near the top of
my list. If you dont mind driving 25 minutes the village pizzeria in east
galway is excellent, both pizza and italian dishes.
    For fine dining much more expensive my top 3 would be 15 church,
Chianti, and Osteria Danny.

Don’t know Chianti, other two are great. One step down and more casual/local, Mama Mia’s.

Osteria Danny is my favorite, although getting an RSVP might be tough now.

Forno Bistro (same owner as Chianti) is another favorite- nice outdoor dining and great calamari.
