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.

    Our second time to visit and first time for the other couple. We were seated in a back more private area which was excellent for conversation. Service was just what we wanted and everyone enjoyed their meals. My only complaint was the pork chops, while an excellent piece of meat, lacked somewhat in flavor which needs to be added to pork to bring out the enjoyment. The other 3 meals were perfect. Also want to mention that we like the open atmosphere (high ceilings) and separation of areas.

    Very enjoyable first time experience. Excellent service and quality food. Maybe a bit on the pricy side for the drinks but not an issue.

    Good things first, service was great. But the food just not that good. I had the Tuscan pork chops and while they looked very good when they came to the table and they were very tender they had actually no taste to them at all. My wife had the spaghetti bolognese and while it was a nice helping same no taste. I will also add that the mashed potatoes that came with the Tuscan pork chops were hard cold and what appeared to be simply microwaved at a very low level. The broccoli Rob was average. The wine was also pricey and average. We usually come to Brio for happy hour at the bar. The wine and the bar food is priced well and it's pretty good. Going forward I think we'll stick with that approach rather than coming here for a full dinner.
