Service was great and food was good, but a few items were just overly rich. The sweet potato dish, for example, was great, but felt like I was eating dessert. Overall value is reasonable as well.

A perfect night we came the family for my son's 21st birthday. It was a great night. We had to get to united center. The service pace was perfect. Not rushed but not slow. The pao de quieo was divine. The jam added was wonderful. The sweet potato was the star of the meal. Starched, crunchy at the same time. My son had the wagu beef. Was excellent. The chimichurri sauce. The brazino was good. Even though did not like the Harissa but the green paste on the other side of the fish wonderful. The chef knows how to grill a fish. They even served my son a birthday icecream with coconut. I am gluten free had no issues most of the menu items are gluten free. There was one honest mistake they served me the brazino and forgot to mention the aioli on the side is not gf. I did not touch it so it was not a big deal and frankly speaking feel bad to even complain about it as everything else was just perfect. But if I would have eaten it it would have ruined the night. So a little bit more caution with guest with allergies. Anyway mistakes happen Brassero is not a dedicated gluten free kitchen and it is a risk for GF diners every time they go to a restaurant establishment. So did not even bother complaining. I will be back despite that. Can see why it is so highly rated. Keep up the good level.

Two of my girl friends and I came here for a much-needed catch up. The food was delicious (I'll be back to try more). The space is absolutely beautiful. Very cozy and the decor is so thoughtful. But the standout of the night is our server, Cat. So personable, attentive, and genuinely fun to talk to. Cat was extremely gracious as we lingered longer than we planned to. I can't wait to come back and bring other friends!

Ordered "the leap of faith" where the menu is curated by the team. There are 2 options and we chose the more expensive of the 2. Stated we were big meat eaters. Thought every dish was incredible! However, thought the amount of wagyu Picanha we received should've been much more for the amount we spent. Overall, I would definitely come back but this time choose the dishes myself.

My husband and I celebrated our 1st wedding anniversary with dinner. We got the pao de quiejo with the special add-on cheese, and the oysters. The pao de quiejo was authentic, perfectly chewy and cheesy (and hot, fresh out the oven?), and the brie/american cheddar special was AMAZING. The oyster was SO good, light and refreshing with the nice spice from the hot sauce. We had a mid-course of the noodles, which were like a seafood laksa. It was so flavorful, filling, and memorable for us, especially since we also love Akahoshi 's noodles! We had the pistachio-crusted lamb special as well as the crispy papas and paulista fried rice. The lamb was HUGE, one of the biggest servings of lamb chops we've ever had at a restaurant. It was so juicy, flavorful, and marbled, cut through nicely by the refreshing and crunchy salad. The crispy papas were a crunchy, hot, and complimentary side while the fried rice was a bowl of greasy, cruncy, deliciousness. There was a significant amount of peanuts throughout all of the dishes, and we loved how it added even more crunch and flavor! We were given a free coconut soft serve because of the special occasion, and as people who don't like coconut, this was amazing especially with the chocolate syrup and toasted coconut. Thank you to Dwayne, our AMAZING server, who was the best giving us recommendations and making us feel special, as well as the staff that kept our plates clean, glasses filled, and table spotless.

The service and atmosphere were excellent. I tried the cheese balls, the steak, and the noodles (vegetarian-style). Everything was delicious. The sweet potato was a bit too sweet for my taste, though.

Had a great experience at Brasero. Our waiter was super friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. Most importantly, our food was also delicious! Personal faves were the fried rice, noodle bowl and pork shank! Cocktails were also a hit as well. Looking forward to coming back soon.
My server was soooo attentive. He saw I wasn't enjoying my wine and decided to get me a new one

Food was great. Everyone liked what we ordered and liked the vibe. I brought my family to celebrate my daughter's 20th birthday. Our server did not bring attention to our birthday celebration as I had presumed, since the person who called me to confirm the reservation was also aware we were celebrating a birthday. Just an FYI, a party of 5 is considered a large party and triggers an automatic gratuity.

Great service! Amazing food! Ordered a little of everything! Loved the Noodles dish! Went for my mother in-laws birthday!

Food was quite good. Husband and I split the pork shank dinner. We also had the fried potatoes (papas). Delish. Our friend had the wagyu which was good too. Had hamachi appetizer and oyster appetizers—oysters are not to be missed. Bit pricey, so special occasion dining for us. Oops! Almost forgot to mention the FABULOUS service (Barb?) and equally fab dessert the coconut ice cream fudge sundae thing with shaved coconut. Woo Wee! Mouth waters just thinking of it.
