    Roasted Chicken

    Delicious. But with the smallest "full pour" beer i've ever been served. Where is the rest of my beer, Brava?

    Pork Milanese
    Alex C.

    I had a great meal at Brava the first time I went but my second time there was even better. Our party of two came for an early Saturday night dinner at 5 and were seated at a hightop within seconds. They have a great 3 course pasta meal deal that I got last time but I remember seeing the Pork Milanese on another table and I knew I had to get that this time. We started our meal with fried brussels sprouts that came with large chunks of pancetta and a apple cider reduction. All the flavors worked well to balance each other out, we attempted to recreate this delicious combo several days later at home. Next came the Verdi insalata, which was an arugula and watercress salad with apple, pistachio and balsamic, a refreshing followup to the brussels sprouts. Next came the massive pork milanese, it's a show stopper. The breading is impossibly crunchy and not oily at all, while the pork was juicy and flavorful. There was a citrusy fennel salad on top and that paired really well with the fried pork. Every course of our meal exceeded our expectations and I am excited to come back next time to see what's new on the menu.

    The perfect date night spot with some of the most delicious Italian food in the area. The vibe of the restaurant is cozy and romantic. The pasta is made in house and they even have gluten free options! Every dish is seasoned to perfection. They have a great Pasta Dinner Special where you can choose a bruschetta, 1/2 salad, arancini, or polpette, and pasta for only $33! This is typically my go to as I can try a few different dishes for such a great price. Service is always great, the staff is super attentive and knowledgeable on dietary restrictions. My water cup is was always full!

    Lobster Fusili

    The best new restaurant I've had in an incredibly long time. This new trend of restaurants focusing exclusively on vibes and not enough on food is exhausting. Brava Cucina is quiet in presentation but loud when it comes to service, ambience, and food. Excellent from start to finish! For starters, the banana sporca mocktail is the best mocktail I've ever had. All the apps were amazing, especially the meatballs and coppa/prosciutto toast. The braised wild boar was equally as delicious! Then for the pasta, I had the special lobster fusilli. Very lemony, fennely, and flavorful.

    I think we found our new favorite restaurant in the area!!! We visited for dinner on Valentine's Day and Brava definitely exceeded expectations. We've also been to two other local spots from this restaurant group, and while they're all great, I think Brava just stole the top spot. The restaurant itself is small, but intimate, cozy, and decorated well with a nice bar area in the front. I booked a reservation weeks in advance since it was Valentine's Day and even though the place was packed we were seated right away after walking in. We kicked things off with a round of the tastiest vodka kumquat cocktail (I wish I could remember the name but it isn't listed on the online menu). It was honestly one of the best cocktails I've had in a while, I can't wait to come back to sample some more options from Brava's bar menu. The wine and beer list are small but well-curated, we had no trouble finding something we liked for round 2. The food we sampled was equally as exceptional. They have a whole list of bruschetta's on house made focaccia. We went with the Red Wine Poached Pear option and it was so unique and flavorful. That dish alone was enough to sell me on this spot, but the Orecchiette al Forno and Squid Ink Bucatini Vongole we had for our entrees were just as delishious. Our server was so kind and gave some great recommendations--I wish I could remember her name so I could give her a shoutout. Can't say enough good things about our first meal at Brava, it certainly won't be our last :)

    Everything tastes fresh and homemade. excellent service, attentive and kind staff. Great ambiance, lively but also relaxed and awesome spot to enjoy dinner. I really think the flavors this place serves are up there with north end restaurants, maybe even better. $36 pasta special is an unreal deal for the quality of great food you get. Plus, free garage parking is an amazing perk. Will continue coming back to this awesome spot.

    Orecchiette Al Forno
    Jessica B.

    Outstanding!! A great addition to Weymouth Landing! My friend and I came here to check the place out shortly after they opened. They did a great job renovating to give it a cozy, intimate vibe. We started with the arancini and burrata. Both were excellent but the bread that came with the burrata was UNREAL. I've never tasted bread like this before. I wanted to take a loaf home with me! For my entree, I ordered the bucatini carbonara. It was fantastic! The black pepper flavor was very strong but I loved it. I'm already looking forward to coming back here, if only for that bread alone! I definitely recommend checking this place out :)

    Gnocchi
    Lindsay D.

    The place is pretty small but has a nice bar. Our waitress was so nice and recommended some good wines for us to try. The Caesar salad was really good and we split a couple pastas, the bolognese and gnocchi, that were both delicious. Very pleasantly surprised by this place!

    Bravo for Brava! Welcome to Weymouth! We all know that way back when Weymouth didn't always have the best restaurants. But, now they have come along way and with their newly opened Italian restaurant called Brava (was the former establishment of 4th and Cherry). Brava belongs to the awesome and amazing restaurant group that includes: Drift Hull, Dotty's (formerly The Townshend), and Pearl and Lime. We have become like family since we frequent these restaurants quite a bit. Their food is always fresh, cocktails are innovative and service is impeccable. Brava is their newest sibling in Weymouth center and we had the pleasure of dining their this past weekend. It is cute and cozy; the perfect date night spot. Parking is mostly street parking, but they do have a garage next door. I was able to find street parking. We started off with a few cocktails and their Caesar Salad and Roasted Figs. What was special about their Caesar is they had cacio e pepe croutons which were amazing. Also, their Roasted Figs were hot, creamy and cheesey...who doesn't love that. For entrees, my hubby got their Porchetta and I ordered their Orecchiette al forno (GF). I thought the Gluten Free pasta was a bit heavier and filling but still very good. We both brought home leftovers. We also ordered a few scoops of their gelato. Brava is like visiting your best friend, you never want to leave! Cheers and I hope you check them out. Tell them "hello" from me!

    Crispy Brussels Sprouts
    Damien S.

    I want Brava Cucina to succeed, because this location is seemingly cursed. Which sucks, because this and its previous iteration have a beautiful aesthetic, and promising menus - both bar and kitchen. But dang if there weren't kinks in the execution. They have a series of sides, dips and accoutrement to accompany their focaccia, which is raging on TikTok because people loved to stick their grubby fingers in things, but I digress - it's a fantastic fast bread, and when done well, is as versatile as quick breads can get. We got the coppa and prosciutto starter, and the star of the show was waaaaaaay too dense. Underproofed? Underbaked? Both? Dunno. We could get past a single piece each, so we scarfed down the meats and chalked up a loss. (And yes, we did notify the server of the off bread. She said, "Oh I'm sorry" but nothing went beyond that.) We also got the crispy Brussels sprouts, and as far as seasonal litmus tests go, this was a stellar version. Exquisite roast, in a glaze of reduced apple cider, honey and lemon, tossed with guanciale and topped with parm - order them every time. Our entree pastas - the orecchiette al forno (sweet italian sausage, broccoli rabe, fontina and pecorino moltinero crema) and bucatini carbonara (moar guanciale, black pepper, egg yolk, parm) - had everything we wanted on a brisk fall night... on paper. Again, the execution was off: very soft guanciale (way less rendered than in the brussels), overcooked bucatini, and the flavors were solid in my orecciette but the sauce was broken and there was SO. MUCH. OF IT. Take a look at the pic: it looks like ear pasta cereal swimming in milk. Flatware, interior, lighting and decor gave total Italian nonna - the water glasses especially (loved it). I have to assume this was an off-night. We gave feedback through the evening which was met with the sort of same "Oh, okay" and that was that. Nothing was bad, so kept our plates and just chalked it up to a difference in tastes, which is fine. Not clamoring to return immediately, unfortunately, but will definitely give it another shot a bit further down the road. And I'll bring nonna.

I went with one of the specials - butternut squash and black beans quesadilla. I asked for the sauce on the side. When it arrived, it looked like 4 pieces of thin tortillas so I opened to see what was inside and it had very little inside. The butternut squash was drowned in oil and the beans were again hard and tasteless. There wasn't a lot of cheese or any other fillings you would expect from a quesadillas. Service was good and our server checked with us and refilled our drinks. Place has a bar area that was somewhat empty for a Friday night and they had a game playing on the big screen tv. Bathroom seemed somewhat messy.

When we had a waitress I ordered a beer and my wife had a martini we ordered dinner. Everything seemed fine. The food was decent. Nothing memorable.

She comes back with my beer and forgets my wife's martini and says oh I'll go have it made right now. I finished my beer before she even came back and we just said forget the martini we are done and leaving. They looked a little shorthanded, so I gave him the courtesy of the doubt. So we went last night with my three brothers and wife's. We had a 5 o'clock reservation. We were sat down promptly and ordered around of drinks. The waitress comes back and didn't even have the right beer for my brother. She got on the wrong kind. No big deal. We ordered dinner and waited and outcomes our dinner but missing one dinner. My wife's chicken masala. she apologize and said she'll go right back and get it. They never made it. They were making it on the fly. Most of us had finished our dinner and my wife's dinner still had not come out so she just said cancel it I don't want it. The waitress was apologetic and said that she'll take the meal off the bill and then making it anyway so she can take it home. She also said that she would give her the drink for free on the house. My wife said she'd take another one and the waitress left and never came back with the drink. By that time we were done we weren't gonna say anymore so we just got up and left. Paid the bill and left. I know this is lengthy, but the restaurant food is mediocre if you order a chicken dish every chicken dish is gonna be chicken tenders, chicken masala, breaded chicken tenders cut up, chicken stirfry breaded chicken tenders, Parmesan chicken tenders are on the menu so they buy frozen chicken tenders and use it every chicken dish. That's not quality. We just won't go back to martinis even though it's nice enough from the outside and inside but the service is poor. The food is mediocre at best. I'll pass and go somewhere else.

The inside has a really fun upscale lounge vibe with colorful lighting, floral decor, hanging lanterns, and a huge centerpiece tree that makes the whole space feel almost like you are dining in a tropical garden.

Both were well presented and came in beautiful glasses. The mai tai was refreshing, balanced, and not overly sweet like many places make them. The mocktail was also excellent and felt thoughtfully made rather than just tasting like juice. For food, the short ribs pho was fantastic. The broth was rich and flavorful, and the portion was generous with tender pieces of meat. Definitely one of the better pho presentations I have had in the area. I also ordered the sizzling steak pate with baguette, which came out hot and smelled amazing.

It was not very good, but we had a bite or two. I was shocked that he then proceeded to drop the entire bill without any migration or even a gesture.

I dunno maybe take off a soda or bring out a free slice of cake if not take something off the bill. Just felt pretty amateur. All we got was some vague excuse about the kitchen being renovated. That's something you should tell a large party when they're ordering. Anyway we've been doing this dinner at different restaurants across the country for years and this night was unfortunately the first time we've had a bad time like we did here that night.
