Our family has been in the food industry for over half a century. It all started with our great grandmother who made sausage and was known as the “Sausage Queen of Hoboken. The influence was so pronounced, it affected our father with a love for food and a desire to start his own food distribution business, providing high quality food to Italian restaurants and pizzerias. He passed this love on to his sons and grandson. This led to the establishment of “Branda’s Italian Grill” founded in 2001 by Claude and Joe Branda. Both Claude and Joe bring years of culinary experience. Join us for lunch or dinner. Our menu includes salads, hot and cold sandwiches, wraps, pasta dishes, chicken, veal and seafood entrees. We also offer catering!
Relaxed bistro providing Italian cuisine such as pizza, pasta & classic entrees, plus a kids’ menu.

Brandas is our second home. We eat here many times a week dine in and take out as well as host parties there for a group of 30. The food is amazing as well as the service. We’ve recommended Brandas to many people and they all rave about it and go back over and over as well. Can’t recommend eating here enough to everyone. And its a BYOB!

Been going to Branda’s for a few years now, and we’ve always been satisfied with the food and service. I just had them cater a large church event, and they did a fantastic job. Claude was great to work with, the crew showed up exactly on time with hot food, and had everything set up within minutes. Best of all, the feedback on the food was excellent! Branda’s offers delicious food and affordable prices with excellent service.
I just had Branda’s cater our company Holiday party, and the food was excellent once again. The assorted stuffed bread tray was the biggest hit!

Branda’s catered an event at our house last night and everything was absolutely top notch. From planning the menu with Claude to the delivery, presentation, and quality of food—-we were so pleased with Branda’s! Everyone loved all of the food and couldn’t wait to pack “take home” containers with leftovers. We love Branda’s Italian Grill and can’t wait to order more catering from them in the future! Best Italian food in the area. Thank you Claude, Joe, and the entire Branda’s team!

From the wonderful bread to the homemade ricotta cheesecake Branda’s Italian Grill is a small but hearty restaurant that is above par. The calamari with balsamic reduction is a treat. The daily special of perfectly cooked scallops with escarole was an amazing complement to the firm pasta it was laid upon. As a byob, a perfect way to spend an evening with friends. Service by all staff could not have been more attentive. Finishing with a prewarmed cup into which was set a very good cup of double espresso an extremely enjoyable time had by all.
Back again calamari appetizer a little more spicy today, still very good.
The Chicken Balsamico was really very good along with the chefs special Irish Bread pudding to finish with another very good cup of espresso.

We went here for the first time on our Anniversary and we couldn’t be happier that we chose to go here!! The food and service was absolutely amazing we were both blown away by how good everything was!!! We absolutely can’t wait to go back again, I would give them 10 stars if I could!! Definitely a hidden gem that we will consider our go to Italian restaurant which is truly amazing since we are both Italian!!!

Something happened the Branda’s over the last year. We no longer get the same quality of food we used to get. Our last two orders have been very disappointing. Earlier today we picked up a small order of two ceasars with chicken, kids friend and chicken nuggets and garlic knots. The garlic knots were horrendous – stale, hard and drenched in oily garlic. Pretty inedible. Our ceasars were supposed to come with a ceasar dressing. What we received was some mysterious blend of white sauce tainted with wasabi sauce. Branda’s used to be our go-to Italian, but we’ll have to give it a break for now.

Me and my wife had dinner last night there and again as always was outta this world . The welcoming hello from the staff including the owner was awesome , the Server Wendy super friendly and her helpers very attentive and pleasant since beginning till the end. We got the calamari and Capresse salad and very homemade , Calamar very good crispy to perfection and amazed with the tomato slices on my Salad so big 🙂 my wife ordered the swordfish special and I got the chicken special pairing that with a nice bottle of wine we brought in since this great place is BYOB and let me tell you it was really good 9.5 outta 10 , later on the OWNER came to say hello and sat with us which I think is very nice for him to do ✅ I can’t wait to go back to have dinner again and say hello to everyone there ✅ keep the great work and Thank You again For being really awesome and make everybody happy at every dinner you served .

Brandas as a whole is an amazing Italian Grill, but for this review, we are going to talk about Brandas Pizza as we search for the Best Pizza in Mt Olive and Morris County. Now in comparison to Mt Olive, Brandas is definitely in the top 3. This is a solid slice of pizza. Especially if you are a big fan of cheese. They do not cut corners on the cheese. In fact, this place can contend in the state rankings for the amount of cheese that is used. I would hate to see what they consider an extra cheese pizza. The consistency was good and sauce was excellent. Could have been cooked a little more, but it was overall an above average slice of pizza for sure. The people and customer service was excellent. Staff actually talked to you and went the extra mile in making sure you were comfortable and had everything you needed. Would definitely go back to Branda’s. Thank You.
