The best appetizers, I would say try them all and really tasty desserts. Pizza, pastas and everything was prepared really well. :) The restaurant also offered our table some complimentary cannoli for our party of 9 and then was so nice for our celebration. Thank you so much!

When we asked about it, the server's reply was, "yes, that because the chef squeezes lemon on the dish." We were hoping they might offer to redo some of the dishes, but it seems they quite like it that way.

I have been coming here, or ordering online, for years and it never disappoints. I recently took my friend to Barano to celebrate both her birthday and pregnancy, and she had a wonderful time! The food and drinks were excellent, including her mocktails. The waiter even brought out a couple comped desserts at the end that really made her night. Everything was fantastic!

We ordered the garlic bread, caesar salad, and burrata nonna pizza for appetizer and it was all so delicious. The. We ordered the carbonara, cacio e pepe, and chicken parm which were all unbelievable. We finished it off with zeppoli and cannolis. Everything was so yummy and the service was outstanding as well. My mom had a blast! I love Barano! The best
