About

Branca Midtown is a love letter to traditional Italian flavors with a fresh, modern approach. Located in the heart of downtown Rochester, New York, in the newly renovated Tower 280 building. Branca Midtown is a destination spot and the heartbeat of the downtown resurgence. 

The word “Branca” in Italian means “branch.”  At Branca Midtown, we seek to extend hospitality to all who walk through our doors and maintain roots in the rich familial culture and cuisine of Italy.  

Our kitchen offers the highest quality ingredients sourced meticulously in an effort to celebrate seasonal Italian cuisine. We are committed to using the best possible products, local whenever possible.  All of our pasta, pizza dough, and cheese is made by hand every day.  

Our beverage program focuses on cocktails inspired by traditional classics with a clean and whimsical spin.  Our Italian wine list is thoughtfully curated sure to please every palate.
