    I looked this restaurant up and booked it immediately because I knew my fiance and I deserved a nice meal while on our trip. Our server Alexis was incredibly attentive and kind, got us everything we needed and took very good care of us. Our food came out so fast! And not only was it fast, but it was delicious! The atmosphere was a little loud, but overall this was a great dining experience and I would absolutely come here again!

    We sat at the bar rather than a table and had a great experience with bar tender staff. The Red Drum with black eyed peas was delicious and a real treat.

    I was very please to find a wonderful option for Mother’s Day. While the food was really amazing, what I think is best about Bresca is the staff. Every member of the staff was incredibly kind and accommodating. It made for a fantastic meal. Our main server (I feel awful, I can’t remember his name) was an expert at explaining all the dishes and offering us his thoughts and suggestions. I would gladly come to this establishment at dinner time hours. That seems to be when they usually do business. Something felt a little off about the pacing (dishes coming somewhat on top of each other.) I wouldn’t put this against them and I still think what is truly exceptional is a charming and delightful staff who should be proud of the atmosphere they create.
