    Fantastic birthday meal at Branca on Saturday night. Wonderful service and the food was excellent. We were really well looked after. Only small issue was the VERY loud table next to us, and even though our waitress apologised it wasn't her fault. Still a great night out.

    Great restaurant, but try to get a table further from the door. A cold draught occurs every time the door is opened, which in a restaurant this size is lots.
