    Service was impeccable. Disappointed that two items listed on menu not available, one of which we were not told until after placing order. Also out of fountain Pepsi. Rather odd. As for the food, all were pleased with cheesy bread as well as tuna appetizer. The chicken special was very good, but not served with any side (just French fries would have been nice). Chicken Santorini thoroughly enjoyed. Both Caesar salads and Greek salads were very nice. Worth a visit if in area.

    OpenTable reservations made for Christmas Tree Lighting at Congress Hall. Had table if 7 including two grandkids 5&3. Attentive service throughout the meal. Food was well prepared and served very timely. Was able to get outside in time for carols and tree lighting. Always great service at Blue Pig and Congress Hall.

    Service: professional, attentive, very friendly. Food: nice presentation with great twists on classics (Cali Turkey Club was terrific). Ambiance: wonderful combination of a modern bar/restaurant, hometown sports bar with ample TVs everywhere including at booths, plus the live music was fantastic. Summary: If you are in the mood for a cool spot, great food, a great sports bar, or great live music, Fairview checks all the boxes. I highly recommend it.
