I celebrated my husband and I’s 15th wedding anniversary today at Brando’s. Our waiter was Giuseppe. To start, service was amazing. Not surprising as we have been there before and the place is truly a gem.we ordered the Burrata for appetizer. Only complaint is that I wish it had a balsamic drizzle. We decided to order something different today. I went with the ‘angry’ lobster which was ordered ‘happy’ style as I do not like spicy foods. The lobster had a great texture but unlike other places, not too oil based and more so white wine flavored. the lobster meat itself was soft and tender and non-oily-much different than what I’ve encountered in other places. Nonetheless, delicious. My husband ordered the Pappardelle Toscana which included scallops and shrimp. It was delicious! Not too spicy and flavorful. We both ordered dessert. I went with the Pistachio ice cream cake which was amazing and my husband went with the fried Tortoni. This place does NOT disappoint. It’s a MUST try! I cannot wait to go again. A special shout out to Giuseppe who went above and beyond in making sure we did not feel rushed during our special celebration even without knowing!

Absolutely amazing, we got the meatballs for an appetizer we got the meatballs, then for our main course we split the tomahawk steak which was perfect. My only complainant was the Brussel sprouts had too much balsamic sauce. But I’m not complaining! A must try if you’re here!

By far one of my favorite restaurants in the area. I’ve never had a bad meal and I love finishing it off with the pistachio ice cream cake. Getting a table or even a bar stool is pretty impossible though so you definitely need a reservation.

Fantastic food and service. Great portions and everything is so delicious. The bread they give in the beginning comes with three different choices to top the bread. Magnificent! You will not be disappointed!

Giuseppe is probably the coolest waiter in the world or at least Asbury Park.

Delicious food and great service!! Must try the threeway gnocci – it is homemade. Basil sauce was the best, then Alfredo then red. Veal was delicious; eat off the bone good. All coffee drinks come with rock candy, such a nice touch! Dessert was okay. Mozzarella appetizer was good. Anthony was an awesome server!
