    Lasagna
    Steven P.

    Four of us dined here on a Friday night... they were about 1/2 full. First time visit. Service was really good - attentive and not far when needed. We had a cocktail ... aperol spritz, martini, beer, and wine. Aperol spritz was in a cocktail glass versus a big wine glass, which I am accustomed to. They did make my second in a wine glass upon request. Bread was nice - I asked for some olive tapenade which was yummy. Not for those avoiding salt! We had some calamari to start plus I had stuffed mushrooms since I ordered prix fixe. Calamari was average, and the marinara was bland. The three stuffed mushrooms were generous and tasty - I only ate two as I was already getting full! Entrees were squash ravioli, veal scallopini, sea bass, and lasagna. The fish and veal were reported as good... unfortunately the pasta dishes were so so. Lasagna was super soft - i suspect it is hard to keep lasagna from overcooking through the service evening. Desserts included the chocolate mousse pie and our server generously let us try the lemon dessert which was very refreshing. Italian is hard to pull off... timing is important and unless dishes are made "to order" it can be unpredictable. Biga won't break the bank, but the possibilities for a better than average option are there in my opinion. Again, nice service - they have been there for a long time, so hopefully a tweak here and there keeps them there even longer. Dishes weee

    Attentive servers bring delicious food and drinks. What more could you ask for? Every Monday night, Biga hosts a wine dinner with a different menu.

    Biga was simply not on our radar until a few months ago. It's quickly become one of our favorite Italian restaurants. The atmosphere is basic and more subdued than some other Brookside Italian restaurants. The food is very good with so-so presentation. This evening I'm having Spaghetti and Meatballs from the prix fixe menu, including a house salad and cheesecake for dessert. The salad was cold and there was no brown wilted lettuce to be seen. It had some shaved Parmesan a couple slices of cucumber, couple cherry tomatoes, and lettuce. The dressing was light and just right. The bread that was brought to the table was really great. It was warm had a nice dense crumb and a wonderful crust. The spaghetti and meatballs was great, the meatballs for a rather large, and I ended up taking half the plate of spaghetti home. Our server this time Was OK but not the best. Not the most sociable server.

    What a spectacular surprise! We went to Biga for a new year's eve dinner. It was our first time coming here. The food, service, and ambiance did not disappoint. Every bite was flavorful and prepared with care. We'll definitely be back and we'll tell our friends about our great experience.

    We had a wonderful time at the Meomi wine dinner! It is always great to see the chef pair the food and then come out , explain it and work the crowd. The bonus was the wine rep was here to explain the different varietals. Meomi has long been one of my favorite Pinot noir but they now have a Chardonnay that's been out a couple years and a brand new Cabernet Sauvignon. All three wines were delicious and have a good price point. Catch one of these wine dinners if you can.

    Ask to sit at George Clooney's table. It's a corner table facing the fireplace. The most romantic table in the house!

    The service and food are excellent here. The ambience is perfect for a couple or dinner with friends. Ask for Ely...he's been with this group for 6 years. We tried every item he suggested and all was excellent!

    Marinara soup disaster.

    Thought I was in an episode of Kitchen Nightmares. We had reservations at 7pm so I waited at the bar and Tommy (I believe that's his name) knows how to mix a drink well. He gets the one star of this review. While sitting there a guy in a man bun and Carol from Tiger King (who I assume are both owners) were barking orders at Tommy in a demeaning tone and one of them asked why he got the orange juice out to which I said, "It's because he's anticipating my next drink order" to which man bun replied "Him?! Highly unlikely." We sat down at 7pm. Menus were laughably vague but they had Osso Buco so I ordered that. What they did to this dish is far worse than the treatment of the calf before they slaughtered it. Looked like it was boiled and now swimming in a broth with a few carrots to show it which stew it came from. The Risotto it came with was a white, bland mound in a sea of broth. I didn't want to be that guy, and the waitress was nice enough to take the plate away to get me spaghetti with meatballs. How they screwed up marinara sauce will forever be a mystery, but they did it. I literally asked the waitress if they had anything that wasn't soup. I ate the meatballs, paid the check, and left as quick as possible feeling unfulfilled. Thanks for the drinks Tommy. Run far away from this place and open a bar.

    Gnocchi

    We had a lovely time, w/o reservation on a week night. We were welcomed right in, plenty of seats which rotated more slowly on this eve. Three of us shared a bottle of wine and the prosciutto/burrata/porter peach appetizer w/ basil & pine nuts. Yum. I ordered prix fixe $25 three course. We shared my calamari. I had lasagna, they had eggplant parm' and gnocchi. We shared my dessert. The gnocchi was majorly cheesy and my friend thought it needed more thyme, less cheese & we felt everything needed salt. But that's better than being too salty from the gitgo. We adored our waiter. No rush, perfectly timed. And we were treated to limoncello shots, just as I have been in Sicily.

    spicy sautéed shrimp with chickpeas-so delicious!!!

    Does anyone know if they have anything gluten free here besides a salad and antipasti? Thanks all

    Yes. They have gluten free food and can adapt recipes. The polenta is delicious

We understood the reason for it.. just would've been nice to know in advance, as we had our hearts set on other dishes. Unfortunately we experienced terrible service. We ordered a bottle of wine and our 2 entrees: Seafood carbonara & the halibut which was a bit dry and mashed potatoes were cold. As soon as we ordered we never saw her again, except to hunt her down for our check. She never came to ask how our meal was after it was delivered, nor did she come by to fill our wine (like has always happened in the past). Never came to even ask if we wanted dessert. Just AWFUL service!! She even brought us the wrong check. Thank goodness we caught it, as it was double the price of ours. We felt like we were taken advantage of... forced to pay a much steeper price for a very limited menu and then not getting the fine dining service we've experienced in past visits. Restaurant was playing Aerosmith loud & did not go with the restaurants ambience at all. I will add that we came for Valentines Day last year & there was not a limited menu then, so just would've been nice to know of this change so we could have reviewed the menu. Their regular menu has a ton of entree options. This limited menu had like 6-8 & all very high priced. Unfortunately they got one over on us, but fortunately it won't be happening again, as we'll never return.

After waiting well past the quoted time, we continued to sit and wait with no update. At 48 minutes after placing the order, I finally called again. We were put on hold for several minutes, then told they'd bring it right out. When the food finally came, the explanation was vague, something about the takeout staff shifting to another task, which only made me wonder how long the food had actually been sitting there. The takeaway here: if your pickup time has passed, don't assume they're still working on it, call and check. Being overly patient may just mean you end up bringing home cold food. Disappointing experience, especially given the price and the simple expectation of timely pickup service.
