Best Contemporary Italian Restaurants in Branford

It was exceptional. The surrounding waterfalls made it comforting, our server was attentive and turned out to be a sports fan and had a great brief intrusive convo with my husband who is another sports fan and he was super impressed with her sports knowledge and experience so she added something special to our experience. However, the skin crusty salmon and grits was the best we've EVER had. We raved about it all evening. Was perfect. My husband and I also loved the warm bread and the 2 dips were tasty. We had fun trying to figure out the flavor of one of them. It had a familiar flavor to me and our server indulged us and told us it was like a puree lima bean. Was amazing and unheard of. Bravo to the chef! Was an ingenious idea. The other dip I immediately knew was olives but it was semi puree and bursting with flavor on the warm bread. Just amazing. My husband had the Broccolini with bacon and I had the garlicky spinach side dishes. Tuscany Restaurant has plenty of Ambiance and sitting in the open area near the waterfall looking out on the concourse at the people passing by and seeing the shops inside of Mohegan Sun was The Best Thanksgiving lunch I've ever had. Our First thanksgiving away from the big family tradition 😊. The experience was 👍😃 great!

We live in Florida and travel to Connecticut each Thanksgiving. Dinner at Consiglio’s is an annual event and each time we dine there, it’s exceptional in every way. It’s our favorite Italian restaurant of all time.

Great food, great service. Pace of dining experience was just right. Have had consistently good experience at this restaurant!

Kinda dark. While our server was good he moved at his own pace. Food was great as usual.

Romantic. Modern. Fantastic food and service. Highly recommended.
