Friday Live Music at Trostel's Greenbriar

Stop by Trostel's Greenbriar Restaurant and Bar tonight to check out some live music from local singer Michael Hope, who will be playing from 7 to 10 p.m. Hope covers a variety of songs from the 1970s, '80s and '90s.

Trostel's Greenbriar on Merle Hay Road in Johnston is one of the city's dining classics. Though this venue’s been around since 1987 and still offers a selection of enduring fine-dining options, today’s vibe and decor swing more polished-casual than formal. There’s plenty on the menu that follows suit, including pizzas, burgers and sliders.
