  Well, if you lack taste buds then this is the place to eat. There is no flavor in this place. Had the Cesar salad and the bag at Schnucks is better. The Pasta Brio was bland and the chicken was chewy. My friend had a vodka sauce pasta and also had no flavor. The service was just ok but the atmosphere is nice. I don’t need to visit again.

  Quite the Italian gem to find in Missouri! Brio combines phenomenal Italian cuisines with a beautiful environment and atmosphere. We were greeted upon arrival to surprisingly inviting, cordial and extremely friendly staff, making the environment and atmosphere and complete experience top notch. It had been a hectic week, and at that point we wanted to treat ourselves to one of the most comforting foods in our opinion that exists.. Italian! While down in St. Louis for personal affairs and business, we inqured about finding a place that gave the quality and taste of Italy, we were told about Brio from several in the area. I am truly glad our week needed this type of experience! The food was flavorful, savory, and generously proportioned for extremely amazing prices, which in our experience with travels, is often unheard of. We have the best server I think any of us ever had experienced, we still smile now at how light and airy and friendly Miss Sherri was during our visit. Her personality it was great, her positivity was truly enlightening and was much needed at that point, at no point were we left waiting wondering or hoping for good quality service, and a few laughs she provided and we desperately needed. Brio is a beautiful establishment, and we are so thankful to have been able to had the opportunity to visit. We will definitely be sharing our experiences with others. And look forward to returning should we find ourselves in the area again. Thank you, from each of us, who just needed the right atmosphere and lasagna to celebrate the accomplishment of a stressful week. Until we find our way back to you again, please know, we were grateful for you all! And should this review be seen, please let Miss Sherri know, we are so grateful for her and her contagious personality that day!

  My husband and I really enjoyed our lunch the other day! The margherita flatbread was amazing and pasta was very flavorful. The food came out at a decent time, but the star of our experience was our waitress, Taylor! She had amazing service, she explained the menu items and specials well and recommended the flatbread that we absolutely loved. Taylor's bright smile and warm personality made us want to come back for more. Great staffing choice, Brio!

  The service is fine, not attentive and very slow, and the hostess looked like she’d rather be anywhere else, which was fine. The calamari was fine, lacked seasoning and flavor, but the lemon aioli was delicious. The Chicken Milanese is a good portion, 2 chicken breasts and a decent serving of pasta, but the actual chicken was very bland, and tasted like cafeteria food. The oil they use when asked for olive oil and parmesan is a blend, and not a good one. It tastes pasty, so it ruins the flavor of the bread. The atmosphere is tuscan, and it is also just fine. Overall, just a boring and lackluster experience.

  I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience at BRIO in St. Louis was bad from beginning to end. First, the customer service was simply poor. From the moment we walked in, the staff seemed uninterested and inattentive. There was no warmth, no sense of hospitality — just a rushed, careless attitude that set the tone for the entire meal. The food was even more disappointing. The pasta dishes looked and tasted like frozen, reheated meals. The red sauce lacked flavor and depth, and the portions were shockingly small for the price. Over $20 for pasta that looks and tastes like this? No way. The so-called macaroni and cheese was basically kids’ mac and cheese — extremely simple, bland, and nothing close to what you’d expect from an Italian restaurant at this price point. Overall, the entire experience felt low-quality and overpriced. I’m from South Florida and have been to BRIO locations there that were significantly better — this one doesn’t come close. Very disappointing and honestly pretty disgusting compared to what I expected.
