“ Good food, it just takes a while. We stopped in for lunch on a Saturday. It wasn't all that busy but it took about an hour all in. We ordered the home burger, which was delicious. Ordered it medium and it came closer to well done, but it was really flavorful and seemed like it was cooked New Haven style instead of fried. I nabbed a chicken tender from the kid and it was crispy and flavorful too. It's got a fun ambiance inside, with a couple of tables lower to the ground with comfy chairs. The service was a bit slow but the folks working there were very nice. I'll definitely be back if I'm ever in the area. ”
“ My girl Lue lue told me she went in for lunch yesterday she was craving the meatballs we started this together as a favor for her cousin but she's not finding yelping much fun I'm loving it all though I was not a fan she said she had a completely different experience than when we went together her and her friends went in for early dinner her friend was surprised they had gluten free options as most of them have a picky palate she said staff was much nicer than the few other times we've been there and the food was much better I don't know what's in the meatballs but I herd how good they were for about 20 minutes ”
“ Home has been a favorite of my family's for years and is conveniently located right across from the green in the center of Branford. This visit was as enjoyable as all the others with good food and a friendly server. There is a larger room with more typical restaurant tables in the back, but the font room (seen in the photos) is my favorite and has comfy seating, like you're just chilling in a living room. I love that the menu will sometimes change with the season to include fresh food for each time of year. They offer all the items you would think of as comfort food too, exactly what you would think a place called Home would serve! I've had plenty of different items and have never been disappointed. At this particular visit, my friend and I came for just a bite and a drink. We enjoyed our wine, shared the cheese board, and had soup and salad. While the cheese board was very basic, the quality was delicious, and we were both very happy with our soups and salads; it was a perfect winter meal eaten in comfy armchairs - just what we needed to unwind! ”
“ For a long time we've been hearing from our foodie friends what a great spot Home is, so we finally made our way for dinner one night! We were seated in the front dining room, which was very cozy and has a laid back vibe. Their menu has a lot of unique options and twists on dishes that we admired- braising the short rib in foxon park root beer was one of them! All around fresh and delicious locally-sourced options. I thought it was great that they offer a separate gluten free menu as well. All of the food arrived to us in good time, and all of the staff was friendly and welcoming! ”
“ Welcome Home When it comes to supporting your local business, look no further than the comfort of your local Home! Comfortable setting, warm staff, calming & feel at home ambience and a delicious & immaculate menu which takes creativity & bold flavors to a whole new level. They certainly hit Home on all fronts. The community of Branford is lucky to have a place like Home. Now enough puns... let's talk menu. Spinach Salad A luscious salad topped with roasted beets, a decadent ball of creamy fried goat cheese & a housemade honey-balsamic vinaigrette. A perfect start. The Home Burger 10/10 one of the best burgers ever. Pecan wood smoked bacon, a delicious caramelized onion jam & sautéed mushrooms on perfectly toasted brioche bun. And my the god Boursin cheese adds an incredible mouthwatering explosion of flavors that brings it all together. Hawaiian Turkey Burger Guess what Gordon Ramsay... you were wrong!! Worried about the Turkey patty being dry, don't!!! This delicious burger is topped with grilled pineapple, crisped applewood smoked ham & housemade BBQ sauce that add just the right amount of fat & juicy moister to the lean Turkey patty. I don't ever go out of my way to try a non-beef patty but this heavenly gem is a must try. HOME-style Spinach & Artichoke MAC can you say cheesy goodness?! This delicious Mac is topped with a slice of torched Brie that further enhances the flavor of this creamy dish. HOME-style Mussels Frites MAC Oh my what a bold combination of flavors & textures. A creamy delicious Mac with mussels, arugula & tomatoes topped with crispy potato gaufrette. Highly recommended. A big thank you to Home for the wonderful experience & accommodating this extremely hungry bodybuilder post competition. We will be seeing you again... soon. ”
“ A very interesting menu. For appetizers we had the General Tso's brussel sprouts. What a flavor bomb. We also had the eggplant fritters. Nice and crispy outside with a soft middle-great marinara too. For an entree we split an ahi tuna melt. It may not sound all that interesting but so light and tasty. Served with awesome fries. They also have a variety of Mac and cheese combinations and a Cajun meatloaf I can't wait to try. Friendly staff. Quick service. Their sign says they are celebrating 10 years in Branford. They deserve it and 10 more. Great place-we'll be back. ”
