We've visited for thursday happy hour. The service wasn't good and the food is average. I wasn't expecting great Italian food but the portions were huge for $5, also the cocktails were all very sweet.
This was my first time at BRIO. With two friends, we decided to order from the Starters and add a salad for lunch. I really enjoyed my plate of lobster raviolis and Caesar salad -more than I could eat. Service was fine but it was a bit too noisy to have a conversation. Although I enjoyed my meal, I thought it a bit pricey for lunch. (You may want to check out the Specials)
Brio has been a family favorite for years now, but the newest menu leaves us questioning that standing. The food is all quite good, but they've removed many of our family favorites. Most notably their flatbread menu has been cut in half. And the ones that are gone were their best options. They've also removed the kids salmon, my daughters favorite dish. All in all the food is still very good, the prices as always are on the high side, and the atmosphere is great. But I'm not sure how often we will be returning with these changes.
Satisfying Italian meal. More authentic in style than someplace like an Olive Garden. Attentive staff. Bread could have been a little more user-friendly; it was soft inside but had a jackhammer hard crust.
We had never been here before. We came at a slower time and it was nice and quiet. The crab cakes were amazing! It was suggested as an appetizer and it did not disappoint. The food was so delicious. We are definitely recommending and will definatelynbe back!
