What You'll Get
Jump to: Reviews | Undependable Restaurants
After completing your New Year’s resolution to ventriloquize all of the great passages from Melville's I'm Angry, White Whale in just three days, you deserve a reward. For $15, today's Groupon gets you $35 worth of cozy comfort foods and fine wines at Jovino, a wine bar, coffeehouse, and favorite breakfast spot on Union Street. Your Groupon is redeemable during the normal operating hours of Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 10 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. It does not include tax or gratuity.
Like a kitchen that heats its oven mitts over a gentle fire before giving soothing stomach rubs to its clients, Jovino’s menu restyles classic favorites just in time for a little winter socializing and storytelling in a handsome, relaxing setting. If you're dining anytime after 11 a.m. for the lunch and dinner menu, get the ball rolling with macaroni and cheese peppered with cauliflower and bacon ($7), or dive right into things with ahi tuna tataki (with cashews, romaine, and ginger dressing, $15). For those whose fingers crave the pillowy comfort of a perfectly bisected bun, test the mettle of the portobello on toasted ciabatta (with hummus, cukes, and sprouts, $9) or the free-range turkey burger under a layer of caramelized onions ($10), complemented by a side of quinoa salad, mixed greens, or kettle chips.
If you prefer your sustenance to be sippable, treat your palate to Jovino’s wine bar, which was installed by wine aficionados back in April. After working so hard this winter, you now have the perfect excuse to rekindle your forgotten relationship with grapes, as well as that attractive stranger who lives in your house and bears an uncanny resemblance to all your children.
