    Friendly staff (and helpful). Great food. A lovely evening & our friends were so impressed with our choice! I wish the music was a bit more appropriate to Spain/North Africa? (Check out lounge: Morocco, Cairo, Barcelona, for example.) OR, lots of gypsy jazz (Django Reinhardt)! And perhaps turn the volume down a bit. One of our friends was having trouble hearing. Brandon rocks!

    Our experience at Bresca was superlative in every regard. The tasting menu was sumptuous, and creative, so utterly transcendent that it's nigh-on impossible to select a favorite dish. The burrata and green tomato was a springtime sensation. The hamachi crudo was refreshing and bright. The stuffed chicken wings were a culinary revelation, a symphonic melding of flavors and textures. The lamb saddle was melt-in-your-mouth delicious. And the strawberry cheesecake was a palate-pleasing capstone on the meal. The quality of the cuisine was matched by the precision and care of the service, especially from team member Roman. In sum: a memorable experience in every regard.
