About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Romantic
  • Good for groups
BRIO (meaning "lively" or "full of life") is a "polished casual" restaurant serving authentic, northern Italian cuisine. The subtitle, "Tuscan Grille" is descriptive for a menu that features oven-roasted steaks, chops, and seafood; similar to what one would find in an authentic ristorante in Tuscany. BRIO's philosophy of "to eat well, is to live well" is why they only use the finest and freshest ingredients. BRIO brings the pleasure of a Tuscan country villa to the American city. To learn more, go to www.BrioItalian.com.

    Sunday morning about noon. Only one other family in the cavernous restaurant which instantly makes you think maybe you chose wrong? Looking for brunch and they had several breakfasty-things on the menu. But.it.was.just.so.empty. Very energetic server (Sean?) but still had to prompt him for things like a spoon for my coffee. Wound up actually having a pasta dish which was good but not fabulous. The only reason I wouldn't recommend it to a friend is that I wouldn't go back myself. Just too many other places to try that might have a better vibe and at $65 for breakfast/lunch for 3 (without alcohol) it just isn't worth it.

    Our server told us that this location of Brio was closing at the end of this week to make way for expansion of BI urgent care. Not my favorite place but easy to get a reservation. The bruschetta plate was delicious. I had the salmon which is always good. Others had the lobster and shrimp fettuccine which they liked. Too bad that they are leaving the location

    Food was excellent, the server was very nice, however no one came by to re-fill the water glasses, which meant most of us didn't have anything to drink for the meal. It was difficult to find our server to request a refill until our dishes were being cleared.

    BRIO is absolutely hitting its stride. Waiter was great - very attentive, knew the menu well and made excellent recommendations. The food was all very tasty and served piping hot. We all got something different and everything was really exceptional. Definitely recommend Brio especially for large parties as they accommodate well. Smaller parties also do well. Great experience and looking forward to going back.
