7/30/23: In Bushnell’s Basin. It was only ok. The brick oven pizza was too charcoal tasting. The bottom of the pizza had lots of charcoal black sections. I read online that burned bits are carcinogenic. I could not eat more than 2 slices, but my friends liked the charcoal taste. The charcoal taste overwhelmed my taste buds. The garlic bread with honey was incredible tasting! The meatball tasted great. There was a worker in the kitchen sporting a long bushy beard with NO beard mask! Some of the female waitresses wore dresses & shorts that I thought were unprofessional, too tight, & too high up on their legs . Of note, Wegmans Holt Rd. uses a brick oven to bake their pizza , but they do not burn their pizza.

Started with the housemate ricotta and calamari. Both did not disappoint. I would say the crostinis for the ricotta should be thinner, by the roasted garlic was an amazing touch. I also enjoyed the butternut squash soup with goat cheese and pepitos. I will definitely put goat cheese in next time I make it at home. I had the scallops, while wife enjoyed the soft shell Crab over risotto. Both dishes were fantastic. I didn’t get a while lot of lobster from the broth with the scallops, but overall I really enjoyed it. The zeppolis were hot and piping fresh from the kitchen for dessert. Service was very attentive and friendly.

Great food, great service, great atmosphere, decent prices. I couldn’t ask for a better date for me and my wife. It was amazing. We come back every year for our anniversary and this is why. I also proposed to my wife here.

Drinks and service is great. The food is lacking attention to detail. The lobster risotto was lacking salt and an acid. It was also overcooked. The pasta carbonara was not a carbonara. It was missing parmigiano and percorino cheeses. Only taste like eggs and pasta water. Someone should really taste the food before it gets plated. The appetizers were great. The cook making the appetizers should be the one making everything really.

So let me start with the staff was wonderful but expect our server I think her name was Nathalie? But who knows since she never introduce herself with us since she was too busy in a room that wasn’t full? It took her 10 mins to come to our table had an attitude when serving us, just cuz we are Asian? Since I overheard her from another table very energetic but coming to our table she was very rude and didn’t even want to hear us. As she asked how was everything my friend was answering and she just walked away. I think you should first hear what your customer is saying before walking away that is just awfully rude in the first place. Also I think she was miserable being there but after I saw her smile at all her other tables, I think she was just targeting us since she never gave us a smile while we ate there. We are all very generous tippers while we eat out but after all I still tipped a little. I do like this restaurant but next time I’ll won’t like her being our server.

I am a huge foodie and have been to most of the restaurants in Rochester. My boyfriend and I wanted to try somewhere different for his 25th birthday yesterday so he chose Branca. We were really excited and liked the atmosphere inside. The downfall was the service. Our waitress Nathalie didn’t give us the time of day. She took awhile to come over and get our drink orders and it was another 10 minute wait for our drinks. Once she dropped off our food she didn’t check on us for the rest of dinner and we waited a long time for our check. I’ve gotten much better service at chain restaurants. The food also didn’t thrill me for the price we paid. The pork chop was dry and the kale tasted horrible. The bread for the ricotta was also way too hard. I ordered the linguine and I did enjoy that. Overall it wasn’t a great experience and I didn’t feel like we were taken care of. Which sucks because it was my boyfriends birthday and we spent a lot of money. Although the atmosphere was nice we will not be returning.

We sat outside on the patio and ot was beautiful! The service is excellent, our ricotta board was delicious, and my seared lasagna was so flavorful! I didn’t give it 5 stars because my husband had the chicken milanese, and the chicken was very dry, and it didn’t have enough of the sauce drizzled over it. Other than that it was good.

Service was very slow. We waited 20 minutes to place our drink orders. The waitress hadn’t taken our entree orders by the time we finished the appetizers. The watermelon salad, cheese bread, and lamb ragu were good. The lasagna was overly burnt (not just seared) and flavorless.

Overall a good vibe. The food is tasty but could benefit from some more seasoning … bit of salt greatly improved things. Portions are large. If you aren’t starving, one appetizer and one entré will make a filling dinner for two. The pizza easily feeds two with an app. Cioppano aka fish soup aka zappa di pesce…had plentiful fish but undercooked potatoes ♂️
