" Wow, what a fantastic dinner! The ambiance was perfect, especially with the live music on the patio. I ordered the seafood risotto, and it was creamy and full of fresh flavors. The portion was generous, and my husband enjoyed his steak which was cooked to perfection. We were celebrating our anniversary, and the staff treated us wonderfully, making our evening even more special. Definitely a place I would recommend for a special night out! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Brio for a business dinner, and I was quite impressed! The decor is modern and chic, setting the right tone. I ordered the pasta with a spicy tomato sauce which was beautifully executed. The portion sizes were decent, and the price was reasonable for the quality of food. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and really attentive, making great recommendations that we followed. I would definitely come back for another meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food was good, but the entire experience was marred by a series of unfortunate service incidents. We had trouble getting the attention of our waiter, and our orders were mixed up. I ordered a seafood entree but received a vegetarian option. The atmosphere was pleasant, so that did help; I just think they need to brush up on their service skills. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience was not what I hoped for. The ambiance was alright, but the service was quite slow. We waited a while before anyone came to take our order. I ordered the pizza and while it had a nice crust, it could have used more toppings. Additionally, I felt the overall value for the meals did not match the prices on the menu. I left feeling somewhat dissatisfied. " (*Curated Review*)

" Cafe Brio was a great little find. The food exceeded my expectations. I had the seafood pasta, and it was wonderful! Just the right amount of spice. The server was charismatic and attentive throughout the meal. I found the prices to be more than reasonable for the quality. The vibe was relaxed and enjoyable, which is what I was looking for. Will come back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Eating at Brio was a blast! The atmosphere was vibrant and perfect for gatherings. We began with the bruschetta, which was fresh and tasty. For mains, I had a delightful mushroom risotto and my friend opted for the gnocchi, which was fantastic as well. The service was great, very attentive without being annoying, which is a balance I truly appreciated. Would definitely recommend it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I wanted to love Brio Italian Grille, but unfortunately, my visit left much to be desired. The fettuccine was swimming in cream, but it lacked a distinct flavor. While the atmosphere was lovely and fitting for a date night, the server was a bit inattentive. I think I expected more from a place with such a strong reputation. I might give it another chance, but I have to say I’m a bit hesitant. " (*Curated Review*)
