Brandos

Brando’s was founded on the premise of great food made from quality ingredients, excellent service, and a warm atmosphere, which we believe are the three elements of an enjoyable dining experience. Brando’s is an “Osteria” in the truest meaning of the word. “Osteria” means a place where the owner hosts his guests.In creating Brando’s, they believe they have achieved the perfect balance with a menu that is influenced, not only by a particular region of Italy but by a combination of all its regions with subtle influences of French cuisine. From simple and rustic to the elaborate, all of our dishes start with the freshest ingredients and are cooked “alla minute,” which translates to “cooked to order.”
