text: I have been here twice and Brio has done just swell Start with a decent wine of which they have many You do not have to break the bank to get a good one We found a nice Ruffino that we liked so much we had a couple bottles Small groups do great here especially in the sharing department The breadcracker basket is dangerous be forewarned nnNow should you order the carpaccio appetizer which I recommend you do be prepared for a large portion that you will either share or have no need for an entree Good meat tangy argula and shaved parm all good This second time I was set to have a salad but randomly queried if there was anything not on the menu Gazpacho I was told and yay to that It had excellent flavors and a pleasant texture complemented with just enough kick Mmm And it was cold of course Truly an excellent way to start a meal especially since it was um degrees outside at leastnnDespite the weather we were very comfortable inside Service flowed effortlessly or maybe that was the wine Still I enjoyed a very good Filet cooked to order This is not a steakhouse of course Rather Brio has many things they offer with a Mediterranean way about them Entrees are typically served with their mashed potatoes which I could not imagine but our Server was flexible she easily swapped the spuds for spinach nnThe pastas looked and I am told are good There was a nice salmon a few folks ordered Tasted it myself and it was perfectly fine with some memorable flavors that right now I forget Really there were no sour notes here Which leads me to dessert always fun with a group We tried several and they were all outstanding Seriously we must have had three or four we worked on Top things off with good coffee or espresso and you are good
