Saturday date night with my wife. We didn't have a reservation but wanted to try it after seeing it on the phantom gourmet. The staff was very accommodating and got us seated right away. At first we ended up at the bar and enjoyed the Italian wedding soup and some arancini. Later they were able to move us to a table after a no-show reservation.For my main course I had the Pollo con crema and my wife had the vegetable risotto. Both dishes were excellent and we had enough leftover to take home.For dessert I had the Iris which is a fried donut stuffed with fresh ricotta and lemon zest. My wife enjoyed a pistachio canoli.Price was reasonable but there is a charge for paying with a card. The building is beautiful and the bathroom was spotless. Can't wait to go again.

Great authentic Italian here in Waltham! Cozy environment, friendly staff, generous portions. Dinner options are delicious, but definitely try the breakfast, too! It is 100% our go-to spot.

My family and I went to Brelundi without a reservation and the host moved several tables around to accommodate us. Our server was attentive without smothering us.Our food was amazing!!! I got the pesto ravioli. I ate 1/3 of it and it remained hot even when it came time to pack it up. I was super impressed by this!There is limited seating - next time we will make a reservation and you should too ;) You will not be disappointed!

We stopped here for breakfast this morning. The food was excellent. I had the breakfast sandwich with spinach, red pepper and mozzarella. It was delicious--far above the usual breakfast sandwich. The service was wonderful and the place has a great ambiance.

We recently hired Brelundi to provide the catering for our wedding day. I must say that I was blown away by both the food and the service provided. We dealt with Sarah and she gave excellent suggestions regarding delivery items and menu items which both had a positive impact. I would recommend Brelundi for any of your catering needs and will definitely be dining in their restaurant in the future.

A solid place. The people truly cared and I enjoyed very much. Pasta was well cooked. Bread was awesome. The marinara was good. The food was a bit too salty and not inspired by good. Pizza crust was excellent.

This summer I became a regular at this charming restaurant. I brought a different person with me each time; everyone loved it! The ambiance is pleasant, especially outside. The service is wonderful, and the food fantastic with generous portions. Leave room for no dessert!
Good food. Cool location. Overall a bit pricey for the quality of the food.

I have dined here about a half dozen times. The food is great. The service is not. I was surprised to hear that anyone had good service here because I consistently have had slow, inattentive or down right rude service here. We go back because it's convenient and we work very close by, but our last experience we stood for more than 8 minutes waiting to be acknowledged, the server who finally came over was downright rude. We saw her drop things from someone's table and kick those things across the room. We finally got seated and waited another 15 minutes for someone to come to the table. Their patio had people out there but there was no one inside but it looked like they had only 2 servers working. Our sandwiches did not come with any pasta salad or anything on the side like they used to and our table was missing the two non-alcoholic beverages that were ordered until half way through the meal. My advice is to try Brelundi, perhaps you will have a different experience than we have had. If you like Italian food, the food is worth the wait. The bread is delicious, the pasta and sandwiches and salads are great. Just be aware that your service may be extremely slow, they will forget items and may be rude to you. Also, any time we have gone (at lunch time) I was berated and not seated for not having a reservation so I now make sure I call and make reservations before attempting to go there or we get take out.

The food is great here. It's a little different than the normal style Italian food. I enjoyed it very much and was as full as can be afterward. Great desserts. Make a reservation.Parking: Parking is limited.Dietary restrictions: They were able to accommodate a seafood and a gluten allergy.
