    First time eating here and we loved it! The service was appropriately attentive and, acknowledging that most people are unfamiliar with Georgian food, they walked us through the menu showing pictures of various items on a tablet. Very helpful. The food was outstanding, and the flavor profiles wonderfully different from our normal fare. You should note that the cheese and bread offerings and salads were big enough to share. Also, I was very impressed with the wine. I had a terrific Saperavi, a full-bodied dry red wine. We were there on a quiet Sunday night so not sure of the noise level when it would be more crowded, but that wouldn't stop us from going again. Can't wait! Note that I think they have changed the name of the restaurant to "MaaMa by Cheese and Bread" (which should not be confused with MaaMa Cafe, which is a separate coffee shop they run down the street from the restaurant).

    We’ve been to O’Neill’s before we were looking for a comfortable place with very good food to celebrate Mother’s Day, and I immediately thought of O’Neill’s. Never had a bad meal. The service is great and yes, it was a little loud because had a table at the bar but come on, it’s a pub.  thoroughly enjoyed!
