Had a pretty good experience at Brio last Friday evening. We made a reservation, and glad we did! We watched a lot of people get turned away.
I was a little surprised at how long we had to stand at the hostess stand, before she even acknowledged us – literally probably 10 minutes! She was obviously trying to figure out some table and/or waitering figurations, but it’s not that hard to look up, and say, “we’ll be with you in a moment”. A little thing, but most people would appreciate even a moment of recognition.
Once we were seated, our waiter was attentive. The restaurant is huge, so I was amazed at how fast our food came out of the kitchen.
They brought out their bread first, which is light and airy and amazingly good!
We started with a Caesar salad- it was pretty standard, nothing amazing (they could at least use fresh parmesan to kick it up a notch!) Then we got the Carpaccio- I’ve never had this dish before. First of all, it was huge! I thought the waiter had brought us the wrong thing at first lol. It was so flavorful, every bite was divine!
I ordered the Chicken Caprese- highly recommend! Every bite was so yummy. My husband ordered the grilled pork chops. They were terribly dry… like chalky dry. He wasn’t going to say anything, but for nearly 40 bucks, I feel they can cook a pork chop correctly, so I requested a fresh one. I felt bad that my husband then had to wake so long to eat his meal. Thankfully, the next one was better. It was still slightly on the dry side IMO, but not chalky dry. I appreciate them making it right on the spot.
Overall, it was good. I’m not sure that I’ll come back, I feel that there are other restaurants at this price point that are better, but it was a solidly good meal.

I took my fiance here for lunch for Valentine’s Day. We had never been here before.
Hostess was friendly and seated us promptly ( we had a reservation ). The restaurant wasn’t very busy.
The server was friendly and offered suggestions. We ordered and were presented bread. Butter was soft, which is nice. Many restaurants serve hard, cold, non spreadable butter. The bread was top-notch.
The server hadn’t brought my dates diet Pepsi, but when she brought my salad, she asked if she could have her soda. ( we had water already ).
Food seemed to take a while, but when it arrived, it was very delicious. My date wanted a spoon to twirl her spaghetti, but the server didn’t stop back until our meal was almost finished. My date asked for a spoon and received one and maybe had 5 bites.
We waited a bit to receive a check. We also waited a while for our server to take my card. We probably were there from 12:40 until 2:10
The food was wonderful, and the server was friendly, but it seemed like service was slow even though they were maybe 35% capacity.
I definitely recommend this place. This was my experience. I wasn’t blown away but wasn’t disappointed. Food was definitely 10 out of 10.
My ceaser salad had the best croutons ever. I don’t really even like croutons and typically pick them out of my salad. I ate every one.
I’d say 8/10 on the service. Room to improve slightly but good.
I’ll definitely be back.

First time here. Had a large group, so we had a reservation. We arrived early but still waited 20 minutes to be seated. Understandable with the evening reservation and the number of people, but I was hopeful that we wouldn’t need to wait that long. The service and food were very good. Started off with bread and appetizers, which were delicious. The meal arrived in decent time. There was an error with one of the orders. We were not offered any form of resolution, unfortunately. The food was very good, though. I’ll probably return for another visit. Try it for yourself.

This food is always great. We were sat quickly by the very friendly host. The service in general is great. If you don’t get bread on your table, make sure to ask for it. The bruschetta sampler was very good. The shrimp and lobster ravioli was delicious. The sauce was creamy, and had a little bite. The shrimp Mediterranean was also very tasty. The orzo was light and flavorful. This is a great restaurant for lunch, dinner, and dates.

Perhaps I should be more generous with my rating (pretty good food, very attentive and accommodating service), but it’s a high-carb, chain Italian restaurant. Thus we’re starting at a lower baseline.
Restaurant is echoey, even though it was not at capacity. Servings are generous but dishes are pricey. I did like the calamari and Italian wedding soup. When our group outgrew the table, they very kindly made a bigger place for us.

Food was good overall. Lobster bisque was good. Steak medallions for slightly overcooked well the kids mac and cheese was very rainy and the kids yeti with meat sauce was not my style. Service was slow and didn’t pay much attention to what we needed. Very small portion of dessert to go.

I wanted to share feedback regarding my recent dining experience at your restaurant on December 22, which coincided with my birthday. Unfortunately, the evening did not meet the standards I’ve come to associate with Brio.
Despite having an 8:00 PM reservation, we were seated at 8:30 PM due to a delay. While I understand the challenges of managing a busy evening, the service that followed was disappointing. Our server seemed inattentive, failing to respond promptly to requests for water and tissues, and their behavior made us uncomfortable as they appeared to be observing us throughout the evening.
Basic service expectations were not met. For instance, when we requested silverware and tissues, they were placed haphazardly, and no napkins or extra plates were provided, despite us being a party of two. Furthermore, dessert was served before our main course, and when we inquired about the dessert menu, we were told there were only two options to choose from.
Having visited Brio several times before and enjoyed the experience, this particular visit was far below expectations. It was disappointing for both me and my date, and it has left us reconsidering our choice of dining venues moving forward.
In the end if anyone is looking for a good place with some good food and good service Brio isn’t the one to even consider.
Thank you and I’ll be waiting for the automatic sorry response.

I don’t know who rated this higher but they are not to be trusted. I tried almost every appetizer and all of them were disgusting. The truffle garlic toast had a giant hair, the lobster bisque was clearly from a can, they claimed to be out of the shrimp risotto.
The lamb chops were the only decent thing on the menu and they were just ok. The mushroom ravioli was so bad we had to send it back and the bruschetta was essentially just bread and balsamic. Service took forever even though there were only 2 other tables occupied. We came at 7pm on a Thursday night and the lack of people at that time should have been our first clue that we were going to be disappointed. Definitely not worth the price or the time. Shake shack down the road would have been better.

The chicken Parmesan was good. The restaurant was very dead for a Sunday afternoon. Staff was nice. Things were clean. The kids portion is huge and can probably be split. Not bad for a chain restaurant.

Very nice establishment. Very clean and service was super fast almost too fast lol. Ana was a great waitress ! The wedge salad and Pasta Brio were well done. I do feel like they may add too many noodles to the dish. I’m sure not many complaints about getting too much food. Was just not my preference on sauce to pasta. The tiramisu looked a little haphazard on the plate but tasted amazing! And I was disappointed they advertised a seasonal desert but it wasn’t available .
