The host and server were excellent. The food and beverage choices were good as well. Ambience and decor were fantastic. I had walked by Bianca many times, but did not realize how adorable the interior was. Was perfect for a girls Sunday brunch! Great gluten free menu as well.
Great service and a lot of choice of food. So far the pizza and the hamburgers are my favorite. Just seems a little pricey, but everything was great.
We sat close the front door on a cold day. Without a heat curtain or other physical barrier, it is uncomfortably cold when the door opens and shuts frequently. Unacceptable
Warm and welcoming, delicious and very high quality food, priced more than fairly, clean and bright.
I ordered the chicken parmigiana. The chicken was so tough it couldn't even be cut with a steak knife. Waitress took it back but since the other members in my group were in the middle of their meals I ordered sushi. It looked like Someone took a handful of rice, mushed in a couple of scraps of tuna and cucumber and cut it into 6 pieces. The member of my group who had the chopped chicken salad also had the Sam Inedible chicken. The waitress never apologized. No manager came over. It was obvious no one cared if we ate or not as long as we paid the bill. Which was VERY overpriced for the quality of food they serve.
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!
Good dinner and nice service

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.
