My husband and I spent Christmas dinner here. It was amazing from the waiter to the delicious food. We had the fried ravioli, both had the lasagna and shared the tiramisu. We will definitely be back.

First off all the people that work there were really, really nice. This Restaurant used to be great 6+ years ago but definitely not any more…Bravo! Italian Kitchen is owned and operated by Earl Enterprises. Earl Enterprises acquired Bravo! Italian Kitchen and Brio Tuscan Grille from FoodFirst Global Restaurants in 2020… There was no Hostess, no Bartender… Everything is pre fab Sysco Italian Food now, they used to have Chef’s cooking from scratch. Everything was terrible, chewy, rubber like Calamari, Frozen Meatballs and Nuked… Frozen Vietnam Farm Raised Shrimp I wouldn’t even eat, not de-veined either… Absolutely terrible, worse than Olive Garden….The sign out front doesn’t even work… Definitely going out of business soon…

Wonderfully delicious, seriously amazing food!! We had Italian Wedding Soup (orzo, meatballs, spinach & parmesan) & Pasta Woozy (chicken, fresh fettucci, house made Alfredo sauce & spinach) with a side Cesar Salad!!! It was absolutely amazing!!! Highly recommend!! Price was well worth it about 20 per person!!!!

I recently visited Bravo! Italian Kitchen in Louisville, KY for a birthday dinner and had a mixed experience. The atmosphere was very nice—elegant yet comfortable, with a warm ambiance that made for a pleasant dining environment. However, the service was extremely slow, especially considering the fact that it wasn’t during a peak time. It felt like the staff was either short-handed or just not attentive, which really affected the flow of the evening.
As for the food, it wasn’t bad, but I wouldn’t say it was anything above average. Honestly, it reminded me of a typical Olive Garden experience—decent but nothing memorable. One thing that stood out in a not-so-great way was when I ordered a bowl of Alfredo sauce to go with our bread. What I got was a ketchup cup, half full of Alfredo. It was a tiny portion and almost felt like an afterthought. To their credit, they did go back and attempt to make more, which I appreciated.
The highlight of the meal was definitely the birthday dessert—it was absolutely amazing. Rich, flavorful, and beautifully presented. That dessert alone might bring me back. Overall, it wasn’t terrible, but also nothing spectacular. I’d be willing to give it another try and explore more of the menu.

Don’t eat here!! The place is not clean the food is disgusting and the service is terrible. It’s also way overpriced just awful one of the worst dine in experience I’ve ever had in my life. Paid $17.99 for dry overdone pasta!

We hadn’t eaten at Bravo in several years. It used to be in our normal rotation of restaurants; however, it had fallen out of rotation as it has gotten expensive in recent years.
We ate at the Louisville location (as we were in town for the weekend for an event). I made reservations for our party of 3 for Saturday evening. We were seated promptly upon arriving; however, as we looked around while being seated, I was a little shocked to see the restaurant ~60% full on a Saturday night in December (near what appears to be a fairly heavily visited shopping area).
Positives:
-Our main dishes were good (Pasta Fra Diavolo and Lasagna)
-Bread was warm and delicious
Negatives:
-Salads were very meh. At $7.99/each with our entrees, they’re pricey, but my wife and I have always enjoyed our salads on previous visits over the years. My wife’s dressing was water-y (Insalata Del Casa), and mine (Chopped Salad) lacked the excitement and taste that I recall from previous trips.
-Restrooms (both men’s and women’s) were disgusting. My wife commented first on it, and when I used the men’s restroom after finishing dinner, I experienced similar conditions (dirty floors, dirty toilets, and paper towels scattered about). I’ve seen cleaner restrooms in gas stations.
It is unlikely we will return to this location.

I’ll preface this by saying that the only reason we came is that we had a Groupon. I’ve lived in the area for longer than this restaurant has been here and never noticed it before.
It was a strange experience overall. Reservations were required, but the parking lot and restaurant were pretty empty. We did not sit in the bar area, but the person waiting on us was also the only bartender. There were a few servers in an area 10 feet away from us… that didn’t cover our table for whatever reason? The whole restaurant seemed pretty understaffed and the kitchen staff sounded pretty annoyed with how many times they had to call out orders. Because our server was also bartending, it took a while to order and receive everything. Our server did as well as they could given the circumstances.
The bread was pretty small, especially since there were three of us. Each piece was maybe half the size of a regular stick of garlic bread. Of course we asked for – and received – more bread, but it seems pretty stingy to start. I was expecting my chicken caprese to have actual slices of tomatoes and mozzarella instead of diced chunks.
Everything tasted good at least, and the people with me were very pleased with the cocktails, especially the limoncello lemonade. I didn’t notice anything being dirty as other reviewers mentioned. For how relatively expensive everything is, I personally don’t see myself going back without another Groupon or similar discount.

When were you last here? They are under new (returning) mgmt. Michael the Executive Chef is BACK!! Come back and make Bravo come alive again. The food is always perfectly Italian, big portioned and don’t forget the bread! And the chocolate lava cake is the best in Louisville. 5⭐️’s

Been wanting to go here for a while. They were open on Thanksgiving Day and I got the opportunity to try it out. The employees were very nice and accommodating. The food was great. I got recommended to try the Salmon and it was amazing. I would like to try the Rigatoni next time. The Calamari was also nice. Overall ticked every box.
