I was really excited to try this restaurant and came in with my husband looking forward to a nice meal. Unfortunately, our experience was extremely disappointing. After being seated, we waited for 20 minutes and not a single host or server acknowledged us. No one brought us menus, water, or even asked for our drink order.
We felt completely overlooked and unwelcome. After waiting with no communication at all, we decided to leave. It’s frustrating to be excited to support a business and then feel like your time and presence don’t matter. Sadly, we won’t be returning.

Brio has one of the best happy hours in Santan Village area. This location started offering daily all-day happy hour last summer and continued it, which is awesome when looking for something on a weekend. $8 quality drinks (ex: Grey Goose martini) and $8 delicious appetizers ranging from shrimp/calamari to flatbreads to burger/fries and more. Annabel provided excellent service during our enjoyable time on the patio in perfect weather.

I arrived today with my family and noone at front desk to assist. A lady walked by and just said be right with you with no smile or welcome. Front desk was unprofessional with her drawings. She had no greet or smile didnt feel welcomed at all. I almost walked out but my family was really hungry. I expected a nice welcome to such a nice restraunt but was very disappointed. Front desk easily is first impression. If its your first time dont expect a warm welcome

Monday 5:00 reservation and we were one of two tables in a large restaurant. Maybe 4-6 tables outside. Our waiter was very good. We've eaten here several times and this is the first time we've been disappointed. The two bread plates were stuck together with food remains. When the bread basket came the base was smeared with food. Adair, our waiter, was very apologetic and replaced the basket and plates. Had the lasagna a number of times and loved it, but tonight it was prepared differently; the noodles were overdone and hard/ chewy. Salads were excellent and the chicken marsala was very good. I would also recommend the peach bellini. I have never seen this restaurant so underutilized. We chose this for our wedding anniversary dinner and left feeling 'meh' when it has previously been truly an outstanding dining experience.

On the Saturday we visited their location wasn't overly busy, so we were able to be seated as soon as we arrived. Service went pretty smoothly; we received our drinks quickly along with some bread for the table. The appetizers were alright, the calamari dish was cooked just right & the sauces it came with were good, the spinach dip was basic, but we all liked the cheesy dipping bread like chips it came with.
For our main courses, everyone really enjoyed the meal they picked out. Portions were large & filling and no one had any complaints on how the food was cooked. There were six of us and in total I would say we were here for about an hour.
The restaurant itself was clean, the chairs were comfortable, and staff/guests generally seemed to be in a good mood.
