Description

It's beyond us just how Sam Kacar (former manager at Dominic's Trattoria) crafted such an exceptional restaurant on his first try. But by golly, he's done it. Branica's four courses of bliss may prove to be the best Italian victuals in town. What's more, they're served in très-fancy environs but at mucho-cheapo prices, with only one entrée topping $20 and most everything else $15 and under. Make your reservation now.

  • 2006 | Best Italian Restaurant (Cheap)

    "Cheap" is such a crass word, so let's call Trattoria Branica "inexpensive." But let's say it with seductive Italian flair--inexpensioso, perhaps?--and let's talk about just how much fantastically, classically prepared Italian cuisine you can get on a plate at Branica for less than twenty bucks. An eight-ounce steak filet, thick and supple, ladled with a mushroom Cognac sauce and melted mozzarella. Grilled shrimp or salmon bathed in lemon-butter sauce. Heaping helpings of all kinds...
