Came here for a date night - it was awesome. Good wine, good food, good conversation, gorgeous date! Make it even more special, it was the day that the earnings came out for BBRG - only if I had bought stock in them back in April, I could've had Brio paying for my dinner based on the stock price! Oh well.
Gotta go for the pork chops. A co-worker of mine who hadn't dined there suggested I get the pork chops and being the malleable easy-going dude that I am, I said why not. Pork chops were the best ever. Hands down - I don't know/care what else is on the menu, but it was, as my friends like to say, bomb diesel. :/
Truly a 4.5 - the only thing that kind of killed the 5 star potential was the desserts. The creme brulee, a standard of any good restaurant, needs to be immaculate. Theirs, however left much to be desired. Thin crust and it was actually burnt a little bit - worst part was they tried to camoflauge it by putting a strawberry on top. Sneaky, sneaky, but you won't get passed me!
Like I said, everything aside from the creme brulee was ON POINT. I'd like to think my first date went well too because I was so funny, good-looking, smart, and of course, modest... but on balance, it was probably the restaurant that did all the legwork. THANKS BRIO.
dmo out.
