I hate leaving bad reviews but my experience eating at Brava was bad enough for me to want to write this. My mom wanted to a have a girls night out with my sister and I plus our tween daughters. I've never been to Brava before but my mom had a few times so that's where she suggested. We showed up and were greeted by a woman, Joy, who was instantly unfriendly. Whatever, no biggie. We walk through this very cute restaurant but are walked into a back room and seated at the very furthest table in a not very nice corner despite's walking by a bunch of empty tables in the nicer section. Ok... fair enough we don't have a reservation. Joy takes our drink order. My sister's drink comes out wrong. No biggie. Then another waiter, Ulysses, comes to take our food order. Appetizers come out, great. Two small plates of veggies, the cauliflower and the brussel sprouts. There were good. 45 minutes go by and no food and no one comes to check on us. Did I mention we're in a back corner? The vibes were not nice where we were seated. The tables around us were empty. The bus boy opened the door next our table and it was a large dark cold room. My daughter was creeped out sitting next to it. The nicer tables stay empty the whole time we're there. We see our waiters multiple times but they never stop by. Finally my sister goes to the front to find out what is going on. Our order never got put in. Ulysses thought Joy was taking care of us and she thought he was blah blah blah. Our order was taken so that excuse doesn't add up. We were nice about it and told Ulysses stuff happens but were secretly really bummed. I'm here from out of town and blew my one night out with my mom and sister . We ask for the bill. $54 for one cocktail and two veggie plates over the course of 1.5 hours. I never ever do this but I left no tip. On the way out we got to see Joy's sour face wish us a forced goodbye. My mom was embarrassed and said that's never happened before and that the nice couple who owns the place wasn't there. I'll take her word for it.

I ordered a pasta dish, it was gummy, pasta wasnt cooked long enough. Sent it back for more sauce, it was still not edible, almost $30. No bread, no salad, no hospitality. Oh, and they didn't have any coffee. Brava doesn't deserve a Bravo.
Steamed vegetables consisted of spinach.

Food: consistently good…flavorful, nice presentation, and usually a solid 3 stars.
Service: always exceptional; warm and hospitable
Atmosphere: when the weather is nice, the garden dining area is truly fantastic! Bonus that Brava is located is a neat little downtown with plenty of other restaurants, coffee shops, clothing stores, bars, etc.

Got our table right away. Food came quick and was terrific. We had empanadas, brussel sprouts, steak, and lasagna. Atmosphere is relaxed, and the service was fine.

My friend and I had lunch there. We ordered one appetizers two entrées and each had a sangria. The bill was over $120 without tip. To me that is absurd prices are way too high.

Not only did we have to wait 2 hours after having reservations to be seated, but when I called back today (October 2nd at 4:31 PM) and spoke with someone who claimed to be the owner, the interaction was unbelievably rude and combative. The food itself was mediocre at best, but the service was a complete failure—an “F minus.”
I’ve never in my life been spoken to so disrespectfully by any business owner. The way they handled the call was beyond unprofessional, and it confirmed that this place does not deserve anyone’s hard-earned money.
I will never return here. If you look at my other reviews, you’ll see I always give honest and fair feedback. This experience, however, was terrible from start to finish.

Zero star for the service and rude behavior by the front desk manager. I had made a reservation for 8:45pm and reached at 8:50pm but the front desk manager refused to take us in. He was super rude to sent us back saying you didn’t arrive on time without even being sorry for how he spoiled the evening of my family and 2 little kids who were excited to have a good dinner.
Been multiple times and probably more times to come.
