Branzino Italian - Philadelphia

We understand they were understaffed, but the service was almost nonexistent. Our wine glass didn’t have a proper base and ended up on the floor. It took an eternity for our order to be taken, and we even had to follow up after the meal. Aside from the crab ravioli, the food was not well prepared. The branzino was so old that it left our mouths feeling irritated. The short rib was tasty, but it looked like it was made by an amateur. The duck breast was served cold, and the skin wasn’t cooked properly. The mostarda was weak, and the oysters were not properly chilled. The bread was hard, as if it had been frozen. While the olive oil cake had good flavor, it was dense and also seemed frozen.

Our experience at the restaurant was absolutely wonderful and delicious. The branzino was the best I've ever had. The atmosphere was comfortably European—elegant without being stuffy. The service felt personal, yet not intrusive. Overall, it's a fantastic place to enjoy a great meal.

Branzino offers delicious food at reasonable prices! While the portions may be on the smaller side, they provide excellent value given the quality of the ingredients.

Our supper club had a fabulous meal in branzino. we haven't been there since the expansion. the dining room is beautiful, the garden is spectacular. that was delicious. our favorites included the branzino, cacio y pepe pasta, and the Albanian cake. we'd go back, just for this cake!

This place is incredible! The warm and cozy vibe was augmented by great service that was attentive to every detail. The food was inventive without being fussy and every single item we ordered was delicious. Cannot recommend Branzino enough!
