Here’s a remedy to rush hour.

Instead of sitting in traffic, head to Bar Americano for happy hour drink specials such as $3 Prosecco and $3 Bellinis plus a complimentary spread of fine meats, cheeses and olives from 4-6:30 p.m. weekdays. Should you decide to stay for dinner, the restaurant offers an assortment of pastas, pizza and entrees including chicken parmesan, swordfish and steak Florentine.
