    Bacon Burger
    Laura R.

    We live in NJ and were up in the area with local friends. Ally was a server and she was absolutely delightful and patient with our group. The apps were very good and I was thrilled they had Poutine on the menu. The drinks were delicious as well and as you can see by the pictures they gave me the extra. I don't have a picture of the cucumber collins but someone else had it and it was delicious. The entrees were good and plentiful. They have lots of live entertainment throughout the week. There is also outside seating available. In the dining room is a large fireplace. Comfortable setting. Enjoyable and relaxing evening. We were not rushed. There is plenty of parking.

    went in on a saturday night, the band was setting up for over an hour and a half (got in at 6 30, left at 8, heard maybe 10 minutes of vamping). i got a funguy burger and my dad got a smash burger, no one ever came around to ask how our food was, and we had to ask anyone who dared walk past for help. might be better on another night but it was tough!!

    The food is actually pretty good but when I first got my pasta, it had random sauce that I didn't order. Other than that it was good.

    Thought we would give this place a try. Had the special burger and a pesto pizza. I would say both were terrible. Service was marginal.

The staff…read morewas incredibly kind and attentive they noticed right away that my grandmother had some mobility challenges and truly went above and beyond to help her feel comfortable. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere made for a really enjoyable, relaxed meal. We both left feeling well taken care of. I would absolutely recommend this spot!

    So this was our second time there. The first time was just me and my wife. We went there early to…read morehave dinner. We were sat down and waited and waited for someone to come over to us. 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. When we flagged down the waitress to order another drink. I said I'll have another beer and my wife another martini. 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.

    Back again after seeing The Odyssey (see it). Able to snag a reservation for a bar high top but…read morethat bar was crowded until 8 pm (no one was moving on!). All the regulars were regulating! The vibe was lively and inviting. Finally got to try the composed oyster--I enjoyed ONE and that was enough. It's rich and delicious, but one is all you need before eating regular oysters (from Duxbury). Had all my regular fav apps, but tried the haddock entree and it was amazingly complex and delicious. First time actually eating a kumquat! Sylvain was his usual charming & attentive self-which keeps me coming back!

    Dropped in on a Tuesday night. No reservation. Had 45 minutes to order and eat!…read more Seated promptly in the bar area, which was busy for a Tuesday night in my mind. About 25 tables, but not tightly packed. Felt like an Italian restaurant where you might just share with the table nearest you. I could order nearly anything on the menu. Awesome and terrible with a time crunch! We started with the focaccia bread, which was delicious. We saved some and I'm eating it now. Then it was Splitsville: I mean we split a salad, bolognese and chicken parm. Garden/House Salad was described as fresh, what the kitchen could get, flavorful and colorful. It was all those things and didn't disappoint. Chicken parm was not fried. Was Bell & Evans chicken breast not beat to hell. Was plump, juicy and flavorful. Maybe the best I've ever had. Bolognese was equally good. I'm glad we split everything so we could each try a number of different options. We were out on time and never felt rushed if you can believe it. Excellent service and pacing to go with the excellent food.

We ordered the Zucchini Fries which were amazing! Super crispy and the aioli paired perfectly with the flavors of the fries. I thoroughly enjoyed the Shrimp Alla Busara...a dish that brought me back to when I was small and my uncle would prepare a similar dish. Each ingredient in the delicious sauce shined through in a beautiful way. The shrimp were cooked perfectly and almost had the taste and consistency of lobster. There was a generous slice of crusty bread which I used to sop the sauce at the end. My god it was good. Paired with a great little off the menu but on the menu side salad of fennel, orange and arugula, this was the perfect portioned meal for me. My mom had the small portion of the Vodka Radiatori which was spicy the way she likes. Jessica checked in and gave our compliments to the chef!! For dessert we had the perfectly portioned small Pistachio Cannoli. The filling was exquisite with a hint of orange which elevated the ricotta to a delectable level! This was a STELLAR meal made all the better by our server, Jessica! We arrived on the early side just after they opened so the ambiance was still rather quiet and subdued. By the time we left more tables had filled and the place was really coming to life. Highly highly recommend if you are in search of some very well prepared Italian food. It was obvious the chefs put a lot of love into what they serve! Well done. Complimenti allo cuosco!!

    What a delicious and affordable gem of an Italian place!…read more I've visited 3x in 3 months, and Brava Cucina always hits the mark. Logistics: garbage parking is free, convenient, and available- we missed it the first time! Streetside was easy too. Ambience: perfect for a gathering with friends or a professional meal or even a date night! Music is at a tasteful volume Value: Unbelievable. $36 for an a foccacia, app, and entree is such a steal in this economy; available every day! The entree portions were sizeable as well! Food: everything from the focaccia to the salads, pastas, pork milanese, desserts, and drinks were wonderful. Speedy and kind service. Would highly recommend coming in a crew to try as many menu items!

The restaurant is decorated well, seems clean, and is dark with big windows on two of the walls. Server was okay. He seemed to have a lot of tables, but we were able to get his attention whenever needed. The manager seemed to be floating around the restaurant all night. He checked on us truly as we took our first bite of the first appetizer, then not again. We split the 2 for $50 weeknight special, which was a good deal. The elote dip was okay. It came out luke warm and honestly tasted like a can of creamed corn. We both agreed that warmer and with a little kick/spice would have been better. I can't remember what the second app was, but it was a fried beef and potato appetizer. It was very tasty, but very oily. We were wiping our hands between each bite. The Arroz Chaufa was very tasty and a good size. Unfortunately the plantains that came with it were extremely salty. Cocktails I tried the En Claro and Maldiablo. The En Claro was okay, I expected it to be sweeter than it ended up being. Maldiablo was very tasty and I would drink again. My husband got the sangria that had not been mixed prior to serving, so the first sip was all brandy and otherwise just okay. Overall the food was good but the drink prices seemed steep. $50 for two people to eat was a good price, but we spent just as much in 3 drinks and really only truly enjoyed one of the three.

I reached out to them months ago to explore using them for the welcome party for my wedding. After dozens of calls, emails, instagram messages AND even going IN-PERSON to speak to someone, their event organizer never responded. We followed up numerous times and not once, did we get a formal follow-up. It look messages on 3 different social media channels for me to finally get an answer. When we did, the organizer ghosted us AGAIN! When I followed up with her (now having her phone number) we set a date to call. She could not figure out how to send me the event details, she did not have very many answers to our questions - we got a ton of, "I need to ask the owner". She promised to give us an update to our questions, and NOTHING. The kicker is that she even ignored my follow up text asking for an update. She ended up texting me accidentally - the text was to her coworker asking them if they can let her inside because she was locked out!! So incredibly unprofessional, they do not seem to care for our business even though we were so excited to potentially have our event there. Would not recommend - try back maybe in a couple years when they can get better customer service and more organized.
