Food:
Extremely small portions, generally underwhelming, exorbitantly priced.
Service:
I've typed and retyped this a few times trying to figure out how to convey the absolute disappointment we felt with the service at Branca. After making a reservation and spending over $300 at Branca we were asked to vacate our table as "there were other guests waiting", despite the fact that we were still eating our dessert and finishing cocktails... cocktails the waitstaff recommended we order while waiting for our dessert since "it might take a while". We hadn't been there for an extraordinarily long time, in fact the table of 8 that had been seated before us were still there and seemingly enjoying their evening without being asked to move on out so someone else could be seated.
It was a very uncomfortable end to the evening and we were honestly appalled that we were asked to leave while still finishing our extremely expensive meal.
Not only are we not recommending Branca to friends, we're actively letting them know that the food certainly doesn't come close to making up for the awful customer service.
