“Hey Connecticut, you have a culinary gem in your back yard. We had been trying to get to Grano Arso for a couple of years while visiting CT from San Diego and it finally worked out. We stopped by on our way to the Goodspeed theater and wow, it was worth the wait. We don't like to fill up too much before the theatre so opted for the small, rotating, tasting menu, which included 2-3 choices for each phase of the meal and each was amazing. At the recommendation of our very adept server, we did share the peach salad and it is truly a winner. All pastas and the bread are house made from locally sourced ingredients. I opted for the cod as my main and it was so fresh... you can taste the fresh North Atlantic Ocean. My opener was squash soup, which was perfectly cooked .. not to thick not to thin .. and oh my so good. Service was first class from the time we entered until heading out the door with lots of assistance, from all. I'm one to ask lots of questions, which were met with patience and a smile. The ambiance is elegant but not over the top. We both felt we could enjoy our meals without any pretentiousness. The Michelin folks need to head to Grano Arso fast ... as do you Connecticut because after Chef Jean gets his first star, you know the prices, which are very reasonable for the quality and service, will rise. Well done and can't wait to return to enjoy one of their pasta dishes.“

“Dinner at Rustica Ristorante – A Perfect Experience

From the moment we walked into Rustica Ristorante, we were welcomed like family. This multigenerational gem exudes warmth and hospitality, and the service is second to none.

Our server, Andres, was a true professional—attentive, knowledgeable, and gracious. His recommendations were spot on, and his thoughtful service made the evening even more memorable. It was a pleasure to meet his mom, dad, and aunt, who were just as warm and welcoming as the atmosphere they’ve helped create.

The meal itself was exquisite. We enjoyed the Lasagne Bolognese, rich and comforting with layers of perfectly seasoned meat and pasta, and the Halibut special, which was flawlessly cooked and elevated by a delicate orange cream sauce that brought a bright, citrusy balance to the dish.

For dessert, we indulged in the Budino al Formaggio (cheesecake) and a classic crème brûlée—both beautifully prepared and the perfect sweet finish to our evening.

Rustica is more than just a restaurant—it’s an experience marked by genuine hospitality, exceptional cuisine, and the kind of heartfelt connection that keeps you coming back. We’ll absolutely be returning.“

“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.“
