Best Cocktail Bars in Branford

I consider Siena a true hidden gem. Some of the finest food we’ve ever enjoyed was served there…for the second straight visit. The menu offers variety to suit a wide range of tastes. Service is very professional and warmly friendly. Just right. Our waiter remembered us and our drinks preferences. (We’re, a small quiet family, and our only other visit was over two months ago.) Highly recommended!

The restaurant is nice the food was amazing had a lot of appetizers and they were all great the Burrata was amazing with the balsamic glaze and the fried artichoke was delicious we a seafood salad forgot the name but it was also delicious and the bread was so fresh. Had the grilled chicken piccata that was a great sauce only the chicken was a little rubbery the Bronzino fish with lemon sauce amazing the chicken Parmesan was also amazing instead of pasta we got fingerling potatoes very tasty .dessert was good we had the flourless chocolate cake with pistachio gelato delicious and the basil gelato with strawberries with balsamic very good and last lol lemon sorbet tasty

our 1st brunch at Gioia & of course it didn’t disappoint. So many great dishes it’s hard to choose - so we got a lot - haha. Must try’s - Cacio e pepe scrambled eggs, the Breakfast Sandwich, Eggs Benedict. They had a beef checks hash special - if they have it - GET IT! so much more to try across their menus - we’ll be back.
