“my wife and I were looking at places to go, There was Doma, Pasta Cosi, LaMonacos,Goodfellas, Cava, so many other places , But we optioned for Rossittos, and asking Branford locals they gave some mixed reviews, I made reservations for valentines day, We were looking forward to it, And then we Arrive, Its like a Noisy Bar as soon as u walk in , We were seated in the Back along a long wobbly bench seat Next to a filthy wall with an oil pipe coming out, We ordered, The wait staff was extremely slow, I get it , It was busier than they probably ever are considering the occasion, No excuse, we ordered cacio e pepe, And a Lasagna Simple, Casio Pepe which is supposed to be done with Romano Cheese and Black Peppercorns , And pasta Water to form the Gravy.....over Bucatini which is a hollow pasta Well what I got was Brown Butter and someone's leftovers in a Bowl The portion was literally 3/4 eaten when I got it, I immediately asked waitress what the hell is this, she ignored me and walked away, The waitress comes by after almost 30 minutes of it sitting on my table and uneaten, and asks how was everything and is something wrong, I explained that situation, and this is not what I ordered, Couldnt be, We sat next to a couple who ordered Pasta and the Portion was Very Large and looked delicious, Then mine shows up which is literally 2 fork full of pasta in a bowl with This gross looking Brown Buttery sauce and Green parsley I have Many Photos, the waitress asked what I wanted her to do and I was mortified and quipped Bring me what I ordered for 26 dollars , she said We just want to make ya happy sarcastically , I said there is Nothing you can do to make me happy, But bring us the check she did 45minutes later and it was 89 dollars For a lasagna and Cacio e pepe, one soda and a martini, I added it came out to 61 dollars so where is the additional 28 dollars, we paid , Said nothing No Tip and left, Never will I ever Return I guess they charge extra for someone else's Leftovers the kid forgot to wrap!....“

“best chicken franchise with lemon, spinach and mashed potatoes. compliments to the chef“

“Excellent Food! Friendly Service! Unbelievable Deserts! My Favorite Restaurant!“

“The Best, and I’m a Blue Devil Westie girl. :)“

“OMG! My favorite place to eat! Bacon Cheeseburger made the way you like it. Added saute mushrooms. Crisp lettuce and coleslaw on the side.Took half home! The perfect Onion Rings!
At Townhouse you get a bite of crisp fresh onion with a delicious crunchy outside coatiing.
My friend had Greek spinach pie
(I forgot the Greek name). It was hugh! She took 3/4 home! Big Greek salad was also delish.
The server was polite and pleasant. The turn around from the kitchen less then 10 minutes. They were very busy but did not rush us. We sat and talked after the meal, very comfortable. The whole atmosphere was pleasant.
A dinning pleasure.“

“Blue cheese dressing was a big hit with your wings for my gathering. Folks were like “this is some good s__t!”“

“Probably my favorite restaurant in Branford. Best lobster bisque hands down! Service is always so wonderful, kind and accommodating and the food is out of this world.“

“Love the new make over. The service and food are great!! However the noise level is so uncomfortable and the was not a full seating. So bad that the hostess had to go outside when answering the calls. Highly recommend sound proofing panels.“

“Good food and portion sizes, and very friendly and attentive waitstaff. Glad I stopped in while traveling.“
