    Pasta dish was tasty and good. Husband got the lobster and shrimp fettuccine. I chose the chicken Marsala. The chicken was over cooked and a little dry. The sauce was more like a brown gravy then the traditional Marsala sauce. Drinks from the bar were very good.

    We sat for Mother’s Day and with the reservation, got priority seating. The food is very good though the portion size tended to be smaller than other places. There was a large time gap between our appetizers and entrees being served. For that the manager comped us a desert. I can’t complain there. The waitress, though busy forgot to check our beverages properly and my wife had mentioned she wanted a glass of wine with her entree. The waitress didn’t come and ask after our food was served. Overall, the food is very good if not overpriced for the portions.

    service was super slow, inconsistent, and at times non existent. our food came out way too late and all at different times. My meal actually never did show up at all. Manager tried to make up for it by comping a few items but didn't even deduct my meal that i never got. they tried to blame it on the kitchen but plenty of other tables around us got their food and before we did and were seated 30 minutes after. I want to give them a break because it was mothers day, but just can't . ruined my occasion and i will not go back. food that was received was just ok.

    The Brio menu has really become costly, and even pricy, compared for what you receive. They somehow need to reevaluate their offerings price, one can go to a much nicer restaurant with class for the same price point.

    Brio is one of our favorite restaurants. Food and service is always exceptional. Last night, my wife and I tried all new dishes to further explore the menu. We seem to be inclined to order menu items we have come to love from previous visits. Tonight, we leave with new favorite dishes and an incredible new wine choice.

    We alw always come here for Easter this is a Easter tradition for us and we enjoy it each year also we go here for Mother's day so we go twice a year. The only thing that I didn't care for is that they didn't have our table already prepared but and seat us at a booth when we ask to move too a table they told us we could move but then a lady which she could have been a Manger question us about sitting at the table because the one we was going to seat she told us it was reserved. So my question was why wasn't our table reserved like that. And the table she wanted to sit us at somebody had already sit there and left and the table was dirty she was going to sit us a a dirty table when we said something she then tried to dust off with her hand when I advised that wasn't going to work she told the host to seat us at another table. We shouldn't had to be subject to that since the she saw the table was dirty 😕 but our waitress Ashely was the best and she deserves all the praise 👏🏼 for her excellent customer service attitude. She was great

    We are foodies and enjoy a good quality meal and don't mind paying for it. We have always enjoyed Brio's in CA and were so excited to see Allen had one and so we went for brunch. I ordered the chicken marsala and the chicken was tough and it appeared to have brown gravy with mushrooms instead of a nice light marsala sauce-no bueno. This plate was $25.00, which I thought was pricey for chicken and mash potatoes w asparagus. It did not state organic or any specialty about it. The other dishes were standard pasta dishes that were also $25.00, which for the quality, a bit dissappointed. We did enjoy the ambiance and our service was very attentive and a delight. Feel free to try it, it could have been a bad day for the kitchen. I don't think we will be back.

    Good service. An item we didn't order was on the check and the server immediately apologized and corrected it. The shrimp and scallop risotto was delicious but not enough scallops. The Pasta Brio was great. The fillet was great, but the fingerling potatoes were cold and the brocolini was limp. The wedge salad and lobster bisque was also very tasty. Our server, Jacqueline, was sweet and attentive but not overly so.

    Had not been to Brio since prior to the pandemic. Prices have gone through the roof as compared to our old visits. Service was good. Asked for salmon to be medium well done when ordering, and it was very rare when served. Waitress took it back and returned with a freshly cooked piece of salmon - still underdone. Overall, we were underwhelmed and disappointed based on our prior visits (and there were many). We've been there, done it, and crossed the restaurant off our list.

    Our waiter gave us very poor service. We had to remind her about the wine we ordered. The amount of bread for 4 people was late and minimal. She did not offer dessert, we're had to ask her after she brought our bill. She was not friendly either. Hopefully she was just having a bad day.

    We had multiple issues and extended wait times for food and drinks. I could understand it if it was busy, but that was not the case. My chicken was dry and they forgot my son's order altogether. Took way too long to get drinks from the bar. Dissatisfied and disappointed. Will probably not return.
