Cocktail Bar popolari a North Branford

Gioia is our favorite restaurant in New Haven, Connecticut. It’s a whole experience and everything on the menu is delicious. You just gotta go there. Make a reservation first. We will keep going back!

We were happily surprised by the quality of the food. It was superb. I still remember the flavor of the yellow fin tuna with brown butter! Next time, we will do the chefs tasting with wine. Beautiful space, amazing food and very cool atmosphere!

We had a wonderful meal. Our appetizer, Tuna tartare perfectly prepared. Also , lollipop lamb chops, although much smaller than previously but still delicious. Entre ,lamb with cavatelli , this was a special but should always be on the menu!! Shout out to Lupe who was a very attentive and friendly hostess.Also, the band was amazing (I did not know they did this on Thursday nights) . Music added to a very romantic atmosphere for my husband and I as we celebrated our anniversary !

I absolutely love this place! The food is fantastic, with every dish packed with flavor and made from fresh ingredients. The drinks are equally impressive, offering a great selection that complements the meal perfectly our favorite was “let that MANgo”. We had the following and everything was delicious: lobster Mac and cheese, fried calamari, salmon, and flan for dessert—YUM! The atmosphere is welcoming and lively, creating an excellent vibe for any occasion. Best of all, the prices are very reasonable, making it accessible without compromising quality. The service from Jalinda was top-notch—attentive, friendly, and made the whole dining experience even better. The owner is also incredibly welcoming and goes above and beyond to make sure guests feel right at home. Highly recommend!

Good, solid Mexican food with friendly service in a nice atmosphere. Would definitely return.
