    We dined at Breva before a concert at Symphony Hall, which is extremely convenient. I had a spicy Paloma cocktail which was tasty. My husband had a burger which he liked and I had the steak frittes which I liked. Our server Carlos didn’t hover which I appreciated, but timed our meal well as he knew we had theater tickets. All in all a positive experience.

    We were pleasantly surprised with our choice for this restaurant before a Minnesota Orchestra concert. The food was delicious, the noise level was perfect & ambience was on point.

    The menu was very interesting and innovative, but the food was average. Nothing remarkably good. Well, actually the honey wings were good. Skip the Walleye for sure it was a total disappointment as were the veggies served with it. Burgers were average at best. Service was friendly, but needed to be reminded to bring basics like ketchup and mustard and the dressings we selected for the salads (which were already dressed with a something else). We found it kind of expensive, but we did order 3 apps and 3 entrees - so that was our doing. Will not return.

    Environment was great for a working lunch. Noise level was low and service was fast and efficient. Food was delicious, salad and French fries are always my go to at lunch and it was simply fantastic. Will definitely be back. They also carry Coke Zero which you can't find many places!

    Giving three stars because the food tasted good. But they were understaffed and everything was quite slow. All of our food came out at different times and most of it was cold. Four in our party were done eating before the fifth person’s entree arrived. One of our orders was incorrect and had to be sent back and corrected as well. Hoping it was an off morning but everything just seemed disjointed.

    I will not be visiting Breva ever again. The service was terrible resulting in our 4th entree delivered to our table in a takeout box. We arrived at 5:15, ordered at 5:40 and had to run out of the restaurant at 6:52 to our concert venue. We nearly missed the curtain. Drinks and salads came at first. But 45 minutes later the entrees hadn't arrived. The waiter called out - we will comp your entrees-- but no maitre d' or other manager handled the situation. The service was so bad, the quality of the food was irrelevant at this point! 2 of the diners left cash for drinks out of kindness. Don't go to Breva!

    The two for $27 dinner is good value. The walleye dip and Walleye dinner were good. The wine is good value. The chicken needs improvement > crispier, with better prepared carrots. Great location to the convention center.

    Hi Tony, Thank you for sharing your thoughts on our two for $27 dinner. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed your experience overall. We appreciate your feedback regarding the chicken and the carrots – it's through comments like yours that we can continually improve our offerings.

    Food was good! App portions a little small. Service was pretty slow at lunch and the restaurant wasn’t that busy.
