First visit was for a bridal shower, will not be back.. Location is pretty wedged in there so you will walk before dining as it’s not near the parking entrance. Beautiful restaurant decor but temperature wise it was awful warm for an indoor dinning room. The appetizer dip was ok but the cracker they give you is hard and just crumbles everywhere (all the breads were hard to be honest), the salad was a mush mess, and the meal (chicken Marsala) was average. The bathrooms were clean.

El servicio es bueno, sin embargo la comida no vale lo que pagas por ella, pedí un Gorgonzola- crusted Beef Medallions y no era más que un filete mignon en salsa de champiñones con una capa de queso gorgonzola al grill, que daba más la sensación de estar comiendo unas sliders con queso, los espárragos eran buenos pero también te ponen una porción enorme de puré de papa para compensar la cantidad tan pequeña de proteína. El Tuscan Grilled Pork Chops, el único sabor que tenía era la capa exterior donde hizo contacto con la parrilla, lo demás estaba completamente seco y sin sabor, el puré de papa que acompañaba este plato no tenía nada que le diera humedad y potenciara el sabor, requeri de un vaso de agua para poder comerme los platillos, finalmente también pedí una copa de Melomi (vino tinto) muy malo, te dejaba el sabor en la boca como a pegamento. Fueron los 100 dólares peor gastados, en la plaza hay más restaurantes donde te gastarías la mitad y quedarías más satisfecho. No lo recomiendo.

We had dinner at Brio in Tampa and were lucky enough to have Emberlee as our server. She was extremely nice, welcoming, and attentive from start to finish. Her warm personality and genuine care made our entire dinner absolutely delightful. She went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed, and it truly elevated our experience.
