Best Italian Restaurants in Brant Beach

The complimentary brushetta, grana cheese, various breads and fried zucchini were all very nice. The octopus appetizer was fabulous and I really liked that you could order half portions of pasta. The bolognese sauce was the best I’ve had and the veal Marsala was out of this world. Portions were plentiful and service impeccable. Would highly recommend this authentic Italian restaurant. The only negative was the noise level made it difficult to have a conversation.

Went to Raimondo's for their pork chop. Husband has never ordered anything else- he tries to, but always ends up with the delicious pork chop. It didn't disappoint. I had the Parmesan Trio (shrimp, chicken, veal). It was delicious, but my only critique is that there was only 1 shrimp. If the dish is going to be highlighted as a trio, one shrimp doesn't fill the bill. The chicken and veal were perfectly portioned. Otherwise, we had a great dinner.

The music was a little loud initially but as the restaurant became more crowded the level dropped. They were playing rock n roll hits from the 60’s and 70’s instead of like Bocelli.

Awesome food, awesome service! Made a reservation a month in advance for 5:00, we were catching a show! Got there 45 minutes early, all empty tables. Hostess was extremely rude and shouldn't be working with the public. We asked to be seated earlier and she said we couldn't, she explained she was over booked. We sat at the bar and had some drinks. 5:00 came and went, she sat every table for 5:00 before us! Rude! Finally we spoke to another host who sat us right away, and he couldn't believe we weren't seated yet. Too many restaurants to choose from in AC to be treated like this!

It was our first time here and it won’t be the last. The food was fresh and delicious. John our server was attentive and always very pleasant and friendly. Looking forward to many more meals at Stefano’s.
