Brio offers a small brunch menu and the food is pretty good. The BLT and shrimp and grits are both tasty and the fries are nicely done. Mimosa is tiny, but the bloody Mary at $5 is a great deal.

Great ambience and very attentive service. The menu was crisp and delicious. Will clearly recommend this place to my friends. Fair prices and big portions. Keep it up.

Great happy hour! Get the shrimp and the buffalo chicken chips. Really good stuff.

I came to BRIO for drinks and appetizers and was pleasantly surprised to find everything to be outstanding! The inside of the restaurant was trendy, but my group was on the patio, which had warmers going, a ping pong table, and large Jenga games. We ordered many appetizers: - Crispy Calamari: delicious! small pieces of calamari battered and fried. They are served with a spicy, creamy dipping sauce that is incredible. - Margherita pizza: pretty standard pizza with a classic thin crust - Burrata caprese: salty, savory, creamy, and delicious! I would definitely get this again - Roasted beets and whipped feta: sometimes, I think cheese can really make anything taste good, and this whipped feta went so well with beets. - Shrimp and Grits: I am not a huge fan of grits, and these were okay. I liked the shrimp, they were cooked well, but I probably would not order this one again. - Buffalo cauliflower steak: this was delicious! Smokey, cheesy, and spicy. A great option for everyone, and especially non-meat eaters. - Prosciutto and Burrata pizza: how can you not like pizza with burrata? this was delicious and I would recommend trying it! Even though we were a large party, the service was great. Another plus is that this restaurant is located in a large shopping center, which means that there are many FREE parking structures around. This is not too common in LA, and makes a trip here even more worth it. I will definitely be back!

I love this place but the service is just not good. The restaurant can be almost empty and the waiters aren't attentive.

Great place for lunch and happy hour! Perfect place for a nice get together with friends or family. We celebrated my sisters 40th birthday and got the private room, service and food was amazing. They're also very accommodating especially with our large party of 19! Great kids menu, relaxing vibe and prices are reasonable. S/O to Shawnee, our server!

The staff was really nice and accommodating with our large group. Our party was late (visiting from out of state) and the staff were kind to still honor our reservations. The food was great and the games out on the patio helped entertain the little ones and adults as well.

Prompt and friendly service, as always. Even when they're super busy with a full house, I've never had to wait an unusually lond time for the food to reach our table. I've been here multiple times and have never had a bad experience.

Nice service, great food and ambience. Ordered the shrimp and grits- so good! My kale caesar salad was tasty,the kale isn't overpowering. Will be back soon.

Our server SHAWNY was excellent. She answered every and any question we had about the food & drinks. Truly appreciated her for making us feel welcomed at Brio. The vibe of the restaurant was very relaxed. If you want to be comfortable and unwind; i suggest sitting inside on the couches on the far side of the restaurant. My family & I ordered small plates, main dishes, & desserts. We enjoyed each plate that SHAWNY brought out.

Very delicious food, a little on the pricier side, and did take 20+ minutes to be served. The servers were beyond kind and caring for us though.

Our waitress was so friendly and since it was our first time here she was very helpful with the food menu options. Will definitely be coming back.

Attended a small work lunch at Brio a few weeks ago. We sat on the patio and had a lovely server. The food was very good-well made, fresh, flavorful. One of our party is vegan and the chef special made a sauce to accommodate her diet. I was impressed from start to finish.

Four star's because: 1. Very good service 2. Varied menu 3. Excellent, mouth watering Chicken Saltimbocca. 4.(2 stars) Calamari. Breading was horrible. Sauce seemed to be from some cheap bottle off a grocery store? The sauce was spicy and I didn't like it. 5. Pricing was fair.

The food quality was superb. We met the Executive Chef who made some excellent suggestions. The wait staff was on point as well paying good attention to us. Overall this was a great dining experience. We are definitely fans! Thank you Chef Alexia and staff.
