Brio Italian Grille

Brio Italian Grille delivered a great dining experience with both food and atmosphere. The Spaghetti Pomodoro was simple yet flavorful, with perfectly cooked pasta and a rich, fresh tomato sauce that tasted homemade. The Spinach & Artichoke Dip was creamy, warm, and packed with cheesy goodness, making it a perfect starter to share. Overall, a solid spot for comforting Italian food and a relaxed, upscale vibe.

The prices are a bit high in relation to the amount of protein that came with my pasta dish. Definitely disappointed there. The spinach dip was good. Beautiful atmosphere. Long wait times though. Chicken marsala was decent. The service was wonderful, out waiter did a fantastic job.

It has been years since I have been to a brio. I was extremely disappointed in the food quality. It tasted similar to Olive Garden where everything tastes microwaved. The steak was tender, but tasted low quality beef and lacked a good sear crust. On a positive the drinks were delicious and the service was phenomenal. Every employee was kind , smiling, and helpful. Unfortunately the food has left me with no desire to return.

Came for lunch and loved it. Found street parking. Had a feast. Loved the Italian music playing. Also greatly enjoyed the Parmesan they grated. Savored our tiramisu ending. Will return. Thanks Steven for making our first visit to this location a delight!!

Terrible service, our server didn't take any plates or clear our table unless we handed it to him. We had dirty plates on the dividers between us and another area. Empty glasses, empty bread holders, we had to stack to make room for our food. Our dirty, empty appetizer plate was still on the table at dessert. $450 dollars with tip for 10 people, I really expected a lot better, we went there to celebrate 2 family birthdays.

I had a remarkable experience dining at this Brio location for dinner. Everything was superb; the food, atmosphere, location, and most of all the service. My waiter Steven was amazing! Will definitely be coming back to see him.

I had the salmon fresca here for the first time today at my servers recommendation... It was phenomenal, certainly one of the best salmon entrees I've had in DFW. I really appreciated the servers personal attention and help guiding me through the menu. The music was a bit loud for my taste, so I docked points for atmosphere.

This is a fancy restaurant that seats many and has a nice outdoor patio area. We were warmly greeted by the host and our waitress was very nice. We ordered the Chicken & Spinach Fettuccine, Risotto w/Shrimp, Lobster Bisque, and Kids Mac & Cheese. Food was really good. My preteen son was asked how the food was by the host on his way to the restroom. He thought it was cool that he considered a child's opinion. Great experience all around.

Great Happy Hour Spot with Tasty Food & Drinks I love the happy hour here--it's daily from 3 to 6 PM, Monday through Friday, and available in the bar area and on the patio. They offer a great selection of food and beverages for just $8. The service is consistently excellent, which makes the experience even better. I've tried the chicken strawberry salad, the flatbread, and the eggplant with shrimp--all were delicious. The sauce on the eggplant and shrimp dish is absolutely to die for! Drinks are strong, flavorful, and well-crafted. While the regular menu is on the pricier side, the portions are generous and the quality is worth it. Highly recommend this spot, especially during happy hour!

We decided to go to Brio after we received a 50% off coupon code for pasta celebrating the upcoming national pasta day. We just got back from Bologna, Italy and wanted to compare the pasta before we forgot how wonderful it is in Italy. We went for a late lunch on a Friday afternoon, and the restaurant was only about 5% occupied. We ordered lasagna from the dinner menu ($22)and another pasta dish and a Caesar salad from the lunch menu. Our waiter placed the order and then came to tell us that the cash register gave us 50% off of the $13 lunch pasta instead of the $22 dinner lasagna. We said can you fix that and he went and talked to his manager. Carl (his manager on duty) came by and asked if we had a problem and we said no that Ron was taking care of it. Carl went on to say that they couldn't change it because it just automatically takes off the cheapest pasta ordered. We kinda thought he was being funny so we asked if they could figure it out and fix the problem? He said, no, that's just the way it is. Out of principle we said just take the lunch pasta and the side salad off our order. He did that without any hesitation. The restaurant lost $20 in sales and more importantly good will and a really bad taste left for Brio and its management. Our waiter was wonderful and did all he could so we left him a $20 tip but Brio got their $12 and got knocked off the restaurants we like to patronize. We have 250 restaurants in Southlake that are happy to welcome paying customers Brio has a wonderful location, nice patio seating, elegant interior with white table cloths, etc. the waiters have always been nice and as accommodating as they can be. Soo ... the lack of customers must be the fault of the management. I've looked through these reviews and the responses to negative reviews is always 'we will let management know, etc so we can improve...'. Maybe, the owners of Brio should be informed and start with a new management in southlake that wants to retain customers before this Brio goes out of business.

Upon entering Brio with two kids in tow, I was nervous if they would accommodate young children. However, Amarea put my worries at ease immediately with his kind smile and overly-accommodating and reassuring presence. He helped store the strollers very graciously. The quality of the food was excellent and so was the service. I will be back!

Everything on the Happy Hour menu is awesome, especially for $8! We came on Wine Wednesday ($7 Pinot Noir) and shared the Carpaccio (my favorite), Sausage Pepperoni &Ricotta Flatbread, and the Strawberry Balsamic Chicken Salad. Seriously amazing food and you can't beat the service at the bar from Shawn! Had a fantastic evening like always!!

One of our favorite restaurants ever . We decided to order our premade Thanksgiving dinner this year to serve at home. Everything was absolutely perfect . The best turkey i have ever eaten . This will be our regular plan going forward

I had forgotten what a great restaurant this is! We visited on a Sunday around 3pm and the place was (sadly) almost empty. Service was top notch and every dish we ordered came out amazing! I wish it had a little more "buzz" and I hope it does have buzz on a Friday or Saturday night.

The food is amazing. The service is very professional from the customer perspective. The ambiance is peaceful from the customer perspective. From my experiences with the Expo Associates causing unexpected drama in my life at work. Treating Door Dasher like less than Dogs! For customer experience 4 Star. For Door Dasher Experience 1 star. This balances out to a 2 Star Experience Overall!

Nice upscale spot - white table cloths - some outdoor seating - in a very (VERY) nice part of DFW. In fact, the nicest neighborhood I've seen. Brio boasts a solid tuscan cuisine lineup with crisp service and a classy setup. It feels quite formal - while we were not out of place for lunch, I would have felt more comfortable in a sport coat after the sun goes down. Food was very nice - As with all Italian, it deserves a local and a "real" scale - Compared to other local "chains" - Olive Garden (1.5), Macaroni Grill (3), Maggianos (3.5)... Brio is a solid 4 with some of the better Italian in Las Vegas at a 5. Globally, it really doesn't compare to little hole-in-the wall places in Rome - maybe a 3/5 on that kind of scale. Date worthy - great place to relax - quiet but not uncomfortable. Big open kitchen. They do always seem to take longer than expected - almost frustratingly so.

Attended Friday happy hour (4 to 6 pm) at the bar and bar table ( includes outdoor patio). New menu for hh as of Oct 15th. Great 8$ cocktails and several new heavy appetizers. The menu is online unique by location. We had cosmo martinis and old fashions and they were handcrafted to order and strong as desired. We tried the chicken salad and eggplant on shrimp. Both were outstanding. Also had the brio pasta and it was el dente with appropriate sauce and chicken. We will be back as the bartender, Lehan was spot on.

The 3-Course Meal Deal for 25 bucks is a fantastic deal! and on top of that, we leveraged the deal on inkind to make this dinner for two very affordable. I came here with my wife on a random Thursday night, and we didn't need to wait and got seated without reservations. Not sure how that would go on the weekend? Anyways, while getting seated and waiting for our food, they offered some bread for us. Below is the choices for the 3 course meal for 25 bucks. Choice of Salad: Chopped Salad or Caesar Salad Choice of Pasta: Sicilian Shrimp Spaghetti, Pasta Brio or Chicken Milanese Choice of Dessert: Tiramisu, Chocolate Chip Bread Pudding or Crème Brûlée We got both salads, as for the pasta we got the chicken milanese and the sicilian shrimp spaghetti. for dessert we got the chocolate chip bread pudding and the creme brulee. Everything was delicious. The only thing i'd mention that could have been a little better is the chicken milanese. the chicken was kinda dry. The best thing was actually the chocolate chip bread pudding!!! Service was good, and they came by with a good cadence to check in on us. My only gripe about this place was the uncomfortable booth seats. Since this is located in the back of the southlake town center, there are parking garages you can park. Not too far of a walk from the garage to Brio.

Food was delicious as always. Our server Bailey was wonderful as well. Me and my girlfriend had a great time. Make sure to leave room for dessert. Love the location too in Southlake Town Square.

We are regular at Brio for quite some time. It's up and down but menu that didn't change is Carbonara, Capriccio and lobster bisque, all are delicious. The servers are nice and very attentive with good service. The atmosphere is business casual and they have private room for business meetings plus happy hour is great.

Came back here on a Thursday for my husband's Birthday. It was a better overall experience. We were sat right away and the service was good and the food was very good. I got the mushroom ravioli and it was great. I always liked the dining atmosphere here and it being in Southlake town square.

My husband and I went in for a last minute date night. Our server was friendly but would ask us a question and before we could answer she was walking away. She had a trainee with her but somehow it took 20 minutes to get a drink from the bar. She apologized and said "They were out of paper " and didn't see the ticket. It was slow, Wednesday night, but I would have had another to wash down the horrible risotto but she never came back to check on us. Food was sub-par. I had the scallops and shrimp risotto, ($39) with 3 shrimp and a 1/4 of baby scallops. The risotto was cooked well but the seasonings were so overpowering that I couldn't enjoy it. The flavors built nicely until the spice kicked it and the canned mushroom flavor was all that was left to taste. My husband had their version on chicken Parmesan. Sauce tasted like it came from a jar, not made in house. The chicken was butterflied and very small. The bruschetta was the best thing we ate. $19 for 3 full pieces of Italian bread cut in half with whipped ricotta and marina sauce! Tasted good but not for the price!! We had eaten here years ago and had the same experience. Disappointed it happened again.

If you're looking for authentic Italian food, this is the place to be. The lasagna is hands down my favorite dish--rich, flavorful, and perfectly layered. A close second is the NY steak, cooked medium well, which is the only way to go. To top off the meal, a shot of espresso is a must, and their extensive wine selection offers something for everyone. This spot is also perfect for a dinner date. Enjoy a delicious meal, then take a stroll through the outdoor mall for a relaxed evening. If you have kids, there's even a big park nearby where they can play. Great food, great atmosphere--highly recommend!

I was a little skeptical of this place due to its less than 4 stars rating. However, my mom is a huge fan of this place due to their happy hour offerings and a with a look at their menu and offerings she does have a great point. My dish, the Chicken Caprese, was a lot larger than I thought it would be! I feel as if many of their entrees can be split between two people. The chicken is was a little hard to cut at first, but I later really got into the dish. They put just the right amount of dressing and toppings with the chicken. I also tried the smoked salmon deviled eggs (solid) and lots of fresh bread - the staff kept bringing more out at my dad's request. The waiters at this location were super helpful and kind too! I did wish my mom got an extra perk for it being her birthday when we went, as a lot of places do that. This place definitely isn't the fanciest place but it is upscale and a fine place to dine in the overall area.

Badly waited our table with amazing professionalism and shared knowledge and recommendations based on our interests. She was very courteous and respectful. Bailey got all our foods to us in time. Food was delicious too. Good job of excellence. Thank you Bailey! Monica

We were here for lunch on Thursday. It wasn't busy so we could enjoy a relaxing moment and great foods, everything was delicious. We enjoyed them a lot. Especially SPAGHETTI BOLOGNESE tastes great, simple but high quality ingredients. I have my bolognese recipe from my ltalian friend which she got from her Italian grandmother. Brio's one was very similar but more elegant taste. RISOTTO and RIGATONI ARRABBIATTA are big portions so we needed to-go boxes.

Great food and service. Lemon chicken was perfect! Very clean. And Delicious summer special warm berry cake dessert!

Consistently Excellent Whether it's lunch or dinner, Brio always delivers. The quality is consistent and the staff is genuinely welcoming; Will provided excellent service during our last visit. I usually get the grilled steak salad--it's flavorful and perfectly portioned. Always look forward to dining here.

This is exactly the kind of place you go for an elegant date night. It's in a shopping center and there's a parking garage nearby. It is clean and spacious with low lighting, and well put together staff. It was just two of us and we ended up just sitting at the bar instead of waiting for a table. It was a great choice. We ordered an appetizer, two entrees and two drinks and left completely satisfied. Margherita pizza to start, perfection. It had crispy edges, cheesy middle part, and fresh basil what more could you want? I had the ravioli while hubs ordered lasagna. Perfectly cooked pasta, the filling in the ravioli was just right and piping hot when it came out. My portion was alllmost too big, I think I would have had no problems had we not had an appetizer. We aren't from Dallas so I don't know if I'd come back if we return, but I wouldn't be mad if someone else suggested it.

This place is nice, the host was great. The gentleman who served us was great and got our food out quick. Ordered the lobster bisque(soup) which was good. The bread that they give u at the beginning paired great with it. Both my husband and I got pasta, plates are filling and so good. Will come back for dessert soon!

We stopped by on Friday afternoon just before 6pm and ordered 4 items from the Happy Hour menu and what we thought would be a nice bottle of wine. 3 out of the 4 appetizers were cold and were not supposed to be. The lettuce looked like it was wilted and soggy and gross. The water brought out an Italian wine and we noticed it was a screw top and a 2023 vintage. The taste was not what we expected nor cared for and told the waiter to bring out another on we knew would be good even though it was $10 less. A manager came out and basically scolded us that he was going to have to throw the original bottle of wine away since they did not offer it by the glass! The restaurant was not very busy but the service started out slow but was ok overall. Disappointing experience and poor food quality will make this our last time to visit this restaurant.

I've been coming to various Brio locations for years and if you aren't coming here for their amazing happy hour, you are missing out!! I haven't dine at the restaurant for a meal, but the happy hour menu is pretty extensive and they have great drink prices as well! Seating for happy hour is only in the bar area. It can get really busy/crowded so it's best to go early if you can. I've tried just about everything on their happy hour menu and it is all great. On this specific visit, I got a burger and a caprese appetizer. I love bringing friends to Brio to eat!

The lunch special here is the same affordable price as other Italian restaurants in my area, but is a much nicer quality and in a nicer atmosphere. Our server Will was super down to earth and easy to talk to. He was super helpful and understanding with my questions. We had lobster bisque, a chicken sandwich and fries, spinach artichoke dip, peach tea, and a whole bowl of pasta for $30. Granted we had to pull a few strings with a third party app, but such a good price for that quality food would make you a fool for not stopping here. Shoutout to Will, he's a cool dude.

Decided to stop by on a Sunday afternoon. They were not busy which was a shock and also should have been a sign. I remember when brio used to be good but I have not been to one in years. The atmosphere is great but the food is just so-so. The calamari was chewy and I don't understand why they put the sauces on the plate instead of in cups or ramekins. The pastas were cooked well but lacked in flavor. The pasta brio and the pasta alla vodka were lacking in richness. The cheese and the sauces were bland. The best part of the meal was the bread. The service was also lacking. The waitstaff spent most of their time talking in the corner and only came by our table a couple of times. Overall, I would not recommend Brio. The entree prices are high for what you get and the service is lack luster.

Arrived for a dinner date night and all went smoothly with my OpenTable reservation, including my notes on seating preferences. We were quickly seated at a great table. Our server, Joe, was fantastic! Friendly and really paid attention to our pace, which was slow. I had the Salmon and she had the penne. Both dishes were delicious, though her chicken was a little dry. Enjoyed a terrific Tuscan wine. Will definitely be back.

Food was amazing! I like that it is a bit different than typical Italian places. Service was fantastic and didn't feel rushed. Gave great recommendations as well. Where we sat was kind of a pass thru so it was a bit busy but overall it was a great experience. I would definitely go back! Drinks from bar were also great!

Service was abysmal to say the least. Server, Bailey, was either comatose or sick. She was inattentive and slow as molasses. Though we had a reservation it took 15 minutes or more to be seated in an almost empty restaurant. Getting to place orders was another 45 minutes later. One order came out incorrect and the replacement took so long we asked to just box it up to go. Food was fine. No excuse for such subpar service on a Sunday evening in an almost empty restaurant.

Haven't back since my last review maybe 3 years ago, and mad at myself for going back. My complaints are the same. They only have an Italian Name...culturally they are an American restaurant masquerading as one. If there is a cuisine that accommodates, it's Italian, but not here. Maybe the only unaccommodating Italian restaurant ever. Mashed potatoes, no thanks, how bout a side of pasta? Nope, not here. Unbelievable. Sorry not for me. Clue, Italian restaurants will serve a garlic and olive oil side, red sauce as well of course .

Everything was tasty. Calamari was decent portion size and was really good. Spinach dip was yummy, but seemed to be on the smaller size. My chicken limone was perfect- no leftovers. Chicken is very thin- it comes w broccolini and mashed potatoes (you can get pasta for an upcharge). Service was ok. Don't go at shift change(around 3ish) as you may be waiting 20-30 minutes for food- in our case, dessert with no communication.

Brio on Christmas Eve was the perfect after church dinner. It was pretty bust but we had zero wait time. Everything came out quickly and was perfect temperature and taste. I had ordered the bisque in a bread bowl but they didn't have bread bowls that day so I was a little confused when the bowl arrived. The server did bring another bread basket so I did get the sour dough bread dip I was craving. The shrimp risotto was fabulous and large enough to share. The lasagna was pipping hot and covered with melty cheese. It was the husbands since I am not a big cheese fan. He loved every bite.

Awesome service, Makena! Thank you so much for your kindness and professionalism. You made the whole experience enjoyable, and I truly appreciate the care you put into your work. I'm already looking forward to coming back again!

Their Happy Hour timing is great, you can actually make it to HH after work! Nice specials on food and drinks.

Allen, Tx location. Excellent food. Excellent service / John was our waiter Great atmosphere

Fantastic Experience!We came here for a family dinner and were blown away by the food and service. The lobster bisque was rich and flavorful, and the lasagna was one of the best I've ever had. Laney was attentive without being overbearing. We'll definitely be back!

A very nice restaurant with a nice bar area. The service was not good. I kept having to flag down other servers for things like napkins, drink refills, and to get the check. The food isn't bad. But way overpriced for what it is. It's nothing special. I've had better italian food at smaller mom and pop type places.

Took my girlfriend out here for dinner and it's quickly become a favorite date night spot for us. It had a lovely ambiance and we appreciated the great service given by John C. The food was absolutely delicious! I particularly loved the pasta alla vodka and my girlfriend loved the margherita flatbread and the gnocchi. Considering that everything was also very reasonably priced given its quality, we were very happy with our night out!

We love this place. I usually get the lobster bisque and split a Caesar salad with the beef medallions. Service is friendly and courteous.

I stopped by with a friend for Brios happy hour. They have an amazing happy hour. Very extensive menu with food and drinks at great prices! I had a tropical martini and it was sooo good! Then to eat I had a flatbread pizza with sausage and pepperoni. Delicious! Good atmosphere. Several TVs in case there's a good game on. Bar service was very attentive too! I would totally go back again!

I was so excited to go back to Brio. It was one of my staples when I lived in another area, but there isn't one close to me anymore. So I saw the sign and immediately smiled. However, that was the end of my pleasant experience. There were 2 people standing at the host stand when I arrived. Although I was the only customer at the time, they said nothing to me. Finally I said " hello, I'd like to eat dinner" and one of the hosts got a menu and took me to a table. I sat at the table for a few minutes before I pulled out my phone to start the stop watch. 11 minutes I sat at the table without water. 11 minutes before I was finally acknowledged by a waiter. He simply said "be right with you" as he whizzed by me. Another 4 minutes went by and I got up to leave.

Brio Italian in Southlake is just ok, in my opinion. The service was very slow, even though they weren't very busy. The restaurant is nice, and they were able to accommodate my large family group (10). The food prices were alright, but the food was mid. For example, we all had leftovers, but no one wanted to take them home. It's not an awful experience, but we won't go back.

Nice place for last minute dinner after shopping. Salad was pretty good, haven't tried the pasta but I will definitely be back.

Brio has always been a solid mid-tier restaurant, and one of our favorites to visit when in town (we don't have one anymore in Austin!). Can you come here expecting premium, made from scratch good? No. But is it way better than Olive Garden? Yes. The food is good and the location is prime. We walked in on a Saturday night with no reservation and opted to sit in the bar section since there was no wait! The service was good. We started off with the complimentary sourdough bread and butter, which is delish, but I do miss the parmesan crackers they used to give out (you can order them or they come with the spinach dip app). Food ratings: - Lobster bisque (4/5): As expected. Pretty flavorful and good. - Strawberry balsamic chicken salad (5/5): Portion is generous and so refreshing. A favorite salad of mine! Strawberries, grapes, pecans, and chicken make this so perfectly balanced. - Ravioli di bello (5/5): I love mushroom ravioli, and this is full of great flavor with the light browned butter sauce and tomatoes.

Mother's day reservations. Dining and waiting areas packed. Snotty hostess said she didn't know how long the wait. We left. Thought I'd give get one more chance. Service has always been a challenge. Done with brios.

My wife and I had dinner a few weeks ago and were sorely disappointed. My wife ordered an entree salad (forgot which one) which she could not finish because the salad was literally swimming in dressing. I ordered the pork chops and remember being surprised how quickly our order was served. I recall wondering if it was even possible to cook one-inch-thick pork chops in that amount of time. My hunch may have been correct. The pork chops had a very soft exterior, not like you would expect on a recently grilled pork chop. The internal temperature was not hot - just lukewarm. After pondering whether I should even eat the pork chop, I proceeded to eat one of two. Without trying to be unnecessarily graphic, I can honestly say my stomach was out-of-sorts shortly after that meal and for several days thereafter. I should have gone with my initial sense that the pork chops were not freshly or fully cooked.

I was really craving some pasta and Brio did not disappoint. I typically sit in the bar section because the service is faster if you have a party of 2-4. There happy hour is 3pm-7pm and you're sure to enjoy it! I typically start with the Carpaccio and I just can't get enough of it. Thinly shaved beef paired with that mustard aioli puts me in a trance. So good. For dinner I got the sausage Carbonara Campanelle and it was truly delicious. I felt like I was in Italy and the dish felt authentic. The calamari was not the best, I only ate it because it was on the table. If you love pasta, you are gonna love the dishes.

Our waiter was great. Not all in our business but attended to our every need which was where we were personally on this day. We ordered Prosecco and a a glass of red wine. They bring you bread which is the window to my soul!! We both ordered the wedge salad which was huge. We totally could have split it. It was so good. I ate 80 percent of mine. The Gorgonzola cheese was very creamy and delicious! We split the beef medallions with mashed potatoes and asparagus. It was cooked to a perfect medium and we both looked each other in the eyes when we took the first bite because it was so good. I feel like Brio is a hidden gem. It's been in Southlake for awhile but it's always good when you go back.

Food was ok. I wanted to switch mashed potatoes for pasta as a side for m chicken Marsala...was told I had to pay an $8 up charge. They were both the same price if had ordered them individually. Ridiculous
