This review is based solely off the bar and what our friends that we were with were saying about the food. We plan on being back and I will write about my own personal experience with the food then.
This place is kinda tucked away in a plaza in Castle Shannon (we went bowling so we went there after a Saturday of open bowling at Princess Lanes). Our friends wanted to get an early dinner and a drink or two, so we joined them (we do not eat dinner that early). One thing is for sure, if you want to get seated right away on a Saturday, I think you need to get to Armstrong's early based on what we had seen. The place got packed.
Our friends just had a veal parm dish and a pasta dish. Both were exceptional according to them. What I liked about the place was the service... the bartender was great (we sat there since we were not eating and our friends ate at the bar), they were attentive and fast (never an empty water glass) and it was just overall a pleasant experience. They had a basic bar, and their prices were more than reasonable (and the cabernet I was drinking was actually pretty good).
We cannot wait to come back and try a real dinner ourselves.
