“I am a big fan of B & W’s overall food quality especially the variety of salads, especially the tunafish & fruit. Met a woman from Branford who comes especially for their Broccoli & Tunasalad a ***** always fresh. The homemade dressings delish especially the Honey Lime my favorite. Yes standing in line is never easy but servers work very hard to keep up with food requests & always willing to make the selections exactly as requested. We on the Shoreline fortunate to have such a great place to order such a variety of home cooked food.“

This is a hidden secret that I never considered in my nearly 30 years in the area. Don’t make the same mistake.“

“Grano Arso is an absolute must-try! The food was unbelievably good, and the service was exceptional from start to finish. Lani, Chef Joel, and the entire staff truly know what they’re doing.

We started with the peaches and Nardello peppers, followed by the short rib, Toasted Rye Tagliatelle, and Rigatoni Bolognese. Everything was incredible and so well done. Easily one of the best meals we’ve had in a long time.

Hands down, you need to try this place. We will absolutely be back!“

Whether it’s a big celebration or just dinner out, La Foresta never disappoints.“

“My family and I stopped here after a beach day yesterday. At first we were a little nervous because we were the only customers, but I’m so glad we stayed! (There were a number of people who did come in to pick up orders while we were there) There’s a small seating area inside along the wall and some tables with umbrellas outside. We got a party sized special for the four adults and chicken nuggets and a bacon burger for the kids. Both the kids’ entrees were delicious, especially the fries, which were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. But the pizza was the star! They kindly brought it out on two separate trays for us, so no one was stuck reaching over one another to grab more slices, and you definitely will be grabbing more! The crust was thin and crispy (but not like a cracker) with a little bit of a char on it. The top was loaded with toppings and the whole thing was delicious!!! I know the girls side each had three slices a piece, and I’m sure the guys side had just as many, and we were left with 6 slices to take home. I’m so sad this restaurant is so far from where I live, but it definitely has become our new place to eat after a beach day!“
