Bianca Woodfire Kitchen & Bar

This seems to be a very popular place, including with families. Not sure why since the prices are not what I'd call "family friendly". The noise level is high and since the floors are cement, there's nothing to absorb the noise. We started with SEASONAL BURRATA. It was served cold. Warming the cheese- at least to room temperature would have brought out the flavor. Our 2nd dish was FUSILLI with almond-pistachio pesto, red pepper, asparagus, tomato confit, parmigiano-reggiano. The pesto flavor was good but there was too much salt added to the dish. The asparagus spears were very tough and woody. We finished with PRIME FILET MIGNON, potato puree, and umami jus. The meat was very tender, although my husband felt it should have had more flavor. Too much salt was added to the potato puree, so we couldn't eat it. The umami jus tasted like it was from a jar...and TOO MUCH soy sauce. The staff was very pleasant. They were all attentive and seemed sincerely interested in our well being.

We love Bianca's and go often! The double Wagu beef burger and meat pizza are great. We also love the sushi, particularly the mushroom truffle roll. And to top it off, the bartender makes the best manhattans, which are my favorites.

Very very positive overall. Ordered spinach&artichoke dip, spicy tuna roll, vodka pasta, short rib pasta, and a chocolate chip cookie. Everything was very very good and great portions. All the food plus two alcoholic drinks totaled $130 before tip. Inside of the restaurant was beautiful and perfect for a date night or other special occasion. Service was solid and attentive. Could not recommend more!

Love the ambiance, food is delicious but services is okay. Presentation of food is poor. Food doesn't present as fresh (salads aren't super fresh- wilted greens etc) This needs help because food tastes good and the restaurant is beautiful. Service is okay- hard to pin down the server Hope feedback helps!

Sat outdoors and had a great experience with our waiter Sam who was professional and attentive !!

A delightful gem for anyone visiting their BC student. Minutes from campus with delicious pizza and gluten free menus for those who need them.

We ate here around 4 years ago and had a horrible experience- the service was horrific and the food was mediocre. We decided to give it a second chance last night and could not have been happier. The service was outstanding by all who work there and the food was amazing- could have licked the plate. So glad we gave it the second chance and we will most definitely return!!!

As always, Bianca is the BEST! My favorite restaurant in the Newton area by far. Shannon, our server, is exceptional! The food is amazing and creative-always delicious. It is my go-to restaurant!

Ate dinner here with the family. Service was fantastic! Hostess made seating accommodations for us, and our waitress checked in multiple times, and was friendly, professional, and efficient. Food came out quickly and was tasty. Fried chicken appetizer was delish! Teens loved their margharita pizza and penne a la vodka. It's a solid choice. I enjoyed my salmon w fennel, sauce was tasty, wish it was thicker. Chicken parm was good. Solid choice for dining out.

Delicious food and a great place to bring our girls — they love the Legos and the play lawn out front

Had slightly higher expectations here - we ordered a pizza (delicious), caesar salad (awful) and my friend ordered a chinese chicken salad that looked decent but had some brown lettuce. The caesar salad had lettuce that was brown/wilted, the croutons were bland/rock hard and the salad was just overall terrible, didn't even eat it. I also ordered a vodka penne to go for my daughter and when I finally opened it when I got home the serving size was laughable for $25. It was good but for $25 - ridiculous when pasta is $3 a box. I also ordered a sandwich to go for my mom which she said was good. It's a fine place if you are shopping around and want something quick - I wouldn't go out of my way to go back. Our server was great & very attentive.

The atmosphere is great. The food delicious Our waitress was very accommodating. Looking forward to go again.

the food and server was fantastic and especially loved it that you let us bring our do to the outward patio. It was very clear that you were welcoming to dogs! :)

Celebrated hubby's birthday; he had won a gift certificate to the restaurant. Had a quiet booth in the corner all to ourselves (specified it was his bday on the reservation). Playlist included lots of music we recognized and enjoyed. Ordered cocktails, smoked salmon roll, wagyu burgers with truffle fries, crispy Brussel sprouts, and for dessert (on the house for the birthday) - banana pudding tiramisu. Everything was delicious, but wish the burgers were bigger and the number of fries were fewer. Server was very attentive and put a candle in the tiramisu. Had a wonderful time and will definitely consider returning.
