| - First of all, the dishes are all arranged beautifully, though for a fancy-looking (chain though, I think?) restaurant like this, I would expect no less!
I came here with my boyfriend last year and ordered the Berries and Cream French toast off the brunch menu. It wasn't particularly memorable, but much better than french toast from places like IHOP, say. It had a fluffy texture, with no sogginess. My boyfriend thought it was far too sweet, but I liked it (I have a major sweet tooth though). He also deemed the signature Pasta Bravo! that he ordered "delicious."
This year, I came alone for the free appetizer loaded onto my account and sat at the bar. I ordered the Meatballs and polenta and my gosh, it tasted AMAZING! The meatballs were tender and juicy, while the polenta underneath was creamy. The bitter taste of balsamic vinegar mixed in throughout blended well with the salty and mildly sweet tones of tomato sauce. The bartender (who was also very cordial and attentive throughout) also brought me a free bread basket with what I suppose was Bravo's special dipping oil - it looked like tomato olive oil. The bread was warm and so soft on the inside, while slightly crispy on the outside.
I will definitely be visiting more often from now on!
