My husband and I love Bros Bistro. His chopping is absolutely amazing. Ron is always so friendly. Love when they have live music. The patio is beautiful with flowering plants and greenery everywhere. Love to hear the water splashing in the pond. Very romantic.

Last weekend my family was in Fallbrook for a wedding. I stumbled upon Brother’s Bistro on Google. Let me tell y’all we were beyond pleased. Communicated several times with Ron ( The Owner) who was super nice. My little cousin loves French Fries and Vanilla Ice Cream ( not together) LOL. This restaurant due to its authentic deliciousness has no deep fryer and doesn’t offer ice cream. Mr. Andy, our table server went out of his way twice. He actually went to the Burger King a few doors down and brought my cousin French Fries. Then, he went to the store and brought her Häagen-Dazs Vanilla Ice Cream. Talk about Above and Beyond! They were so great to our party of 16 or so. If you’re in the area I recommend Brother’s Bistro! Thanks Again! We will be back!

Very good food! I had the seafood dinner and my husband had the lasagna. The bruschetta was good, but I would have liked the bread toasted. The clam chowder was delicious and not over filled with potatoes.

Another of our favorite local restuarants - I LOVE LOVE LOVE the lasagna - it's about 2.5 - 3 inches high, not runny with sauce just stuffed with all the good stuff! My other favorite is the Chicken Picatta, which is always very tender.The atmosphere is nice; we usually sit outside, which is a lovely, quiet little patio.They have live music about once a week in warm weather, I think on Fridays. The type of music varies from one week to another.We like their wine selection, and love the wait staff (especially Andy).
Parking: The restaurant is tucked into a corner in a shopping center, we can always find parking.

A nice place to spend an evening, but little aspiration to excellence.Extra star awarded for allowing me to finally have found a restaurant with no television. It's hard to enjoy a family meal when your kids are watching TV, ruining the ambiance.I had the "special" which wasn't on the menu. The chicken Scaloppine. It started out quite nicely tender with food tasting noodles and texture. The mushrooms, which I normally don't like, were exquisitely cooked.The chicken did not taste seasoned at all and over time, went from tender to drenched in the sauce, which was about a half-inch deep in the plate. The chicken finished as a soggy, buttery mess.The staff were friendly and cordial. Our drinks were refilled continuously, almost to the point that I couldn't understand how they got anything else done.The menu is not overcomplicated but certainly doesn't cater to families with children. A kids option is limited to pizza unless they want to eat fancy.It seems this place is mostly meant for couples and friends and draws a senior crowd. It was pleasant. The lighting in the dining room was dim and I could barely see my food. But I wasn't too worried.Pricing was really reasonable for what you get. My wife had Mahi-Mahi which was also a special, but was $10 more than my plate.There seemed to be no wine list presented, though they had plenty of options which the manager was indulging in from time to time, which some would see as fairly forbidden on the clock. But the casual atmosphere and excellent conduct of all staff didn't make me worried.It was also concerning that a dog was allowed in the dining area. It was a non-service dog and even though the couple with the dog was limited to a table in the tar corner until an outside table was available, I heard commente from other customers about it. Some diners don't prefer hairy friends in the dining room.All in all it was a decent experience with casual food, an uncomplicated selection and a questionable ambiance indoors. I would have much rather been outside. But, we didn't need a reservation and the place was packed outside which should tell you my opinion is likely exclusive and my party wasn't their usual type of patron.Suggestions: Ditch the paper napkins and bare tables in the evening service and to for something radiant to cover tables. Ditch the candles and go for small lamps so people can see their food, since the lighting up top flickers. Stop drowning your chicken. 1/4 of that amount of sauce would do, with a little more seasoning on the chicken. Don't be afraid to blacken the chicken. Perhaps add some color for contrast. My plate was white, yellow and brown. Some steamed carrots, shallots or green onions should do the job.No one can tell you are open. You can't see the Christmas lights from Burger King where you turn into the place. You need an Open sign like your neighbor

A little Fallbrook gem! Food is always delicious and the service outstanding. The atmosphere is warm and inviting and just fun! Wish it wasn't in a strip mall, but what they've created with the space is very beautiful. One of our top Fallbrook/Bonsall restaurants, our #1 Italian/Mediteranean and our #2 pizza in town with The Mill being our fav. Long time customers.

Great small town Italian resturant. The owner was efficient, kind and made us feel like we were regulars, eventhough it was our first visit... We saw him even lend his eye glasses to a customer who couldn't read the menu... while the food wasn't 'flashy' it definitely had that cooked by Nonna feel.

If you’re tried of the waits, and crowds and lack luster service at the “foodie” places in town, you should try this lovely little spot! It really is a gem. Super tasty cuisine, old school service.
