The food wasn't bad but the servings...aaaaa....they serve you so little that you won't know you just had food...deffinitely you'll step out hungry just like you'd stepped in! Plus its pretty expensive as well..so Next time, I'll try elsewhere!
These reviews seem to be so mixed. I came into this restaurant with a friend expecting comfort food, boy was I wrong! We ordered two items: Seafood Risotto and Chicken on Sweet Peppers. The Seafood Risotto had three pieces of seafood on top of rice. The Chicken on Sweet Peppers was another version of Sweet and Sour Chicken common to all chinese fast food eateries in America.
If I ever come back, I'll be sure to try the pizza. :P

Brando Pizza - Completely different experience, Saturday, 19 May 2007
Some friends and myself visited Brando's after the Chinese New Years fireworks at Xinghai Square. When we entered, there were about 20 people scattered at random throughout the restaurant and 2 waitress. We were told, before we even sat down, that pizza was not available. This was disappointing as that is the entire reason I wanted to go there, however, we settled on coffee. We ordered 3 coffees and an orange juice. About 10 minutes after we ordered these coffees, one was served, thirty minutes later, the second coffee showed up, ten minutes after that the other coffee and the orange juice arrived. I was told the orange juice was fresh squeezed, but squeezed from frozen oranges. The coffee, on the other hand, tasted like the coffee grounds had sat in the coffee maker for a month. While we waited for the "coffee," we noticed that 3 groups who came in after us ordered pizza and received pizza, before our last coffee was served.
All in all, we spent 25 RMB each for some really bad coffee and dissatisfying service.
We had lunch there a couple of months ago.I almost forgot about the place because is a bit far away from my place.We had pizza which was very good with thin crust and rich in toppings.They also had anchovy topping which is a plus for us.I haven't seen anchovy topping in Dalian so far.The price wasn't very high if I remember correctly.I think it was approx.60rmb for a good size pizza.They also have some pasta dishes,some chinese ones,good coffee,beer.
