What People Are Saying About Brio Tuscan Grille

The Scene
Gold and maroon vests on the bentwood chairs echo the wood floor's inlay, and 3-D friezes on the wall allude to the Tuscan theme. A long expo line (open kitchen) runs down one side of the room; you can watch flames lick the inside of the brick oven as cooks nearby flip their sautes.

The Food

Pricey upscale Italian, with brick-oven flatbread pizzas and wood-grilled or roasted meats and vegetables. Order the antipasto sampler for two?outstanding fried calamari and pepperoncini with both marinara and garlic mayonnaise for dipping, baked mushroom ravioli, and an average bruschetta (garlic/herb toast) with peppers and shrimp. For a crackery take on pizza, try one of the flatbreads, such as pollo al forno,with rosemary, tomatoes, feta and grilled chicken. Vanilla bean is the best of the homemade gelati. High demand can slow the kitchen a bit, but when our dessert arrived late with a small mistake, the server immediately took it off our bill.

I had an early dinner here with friends once and it was great. It was around $15 for one person w/o drinks. The menu has a lot of great choices. The restaurant is clean. Parking can get bad because of the busy shopping area around the restuarant.

I love the tuscan atmosphere and the food was phenomenal. The prices were reasonable and better than I thought they would be. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening out there.

If you are ever bored out of your mind or starving this is the place to go! Every where is a flurry of vibrant energy and constant interaction. The food is always excellent and the drinks are always perfect. The bar is very lively and everyone who is waiting is amiable and friendly and if they are dull, annoying, and too good to wait then they usually leave quite quickly? This place is not for the impatient! Sometimes waiting can be longer than 45 minutes but if you are hungry grab a bite and some drinks at the bar otherwise you are in for a long night. This is a place to see and be seen.
