Great food and ambiance -- food was different, tasty, and beautifully displayed. Would highly recommend this restaurant, along with the Village Tavern at the Summit. More

A friend and I came for Happy Hour and the Tuscan Tasters. The bar and restaurant is such a great space, one can almost imagine being in Europe. The specialty drinks (pomegranate cosmo) provided a great value and I loved my spicy shrimp & eggplant 'taster'. The Beef Carpaccio was really good also. Warning, these tasters only whet the appetite... More

Brio is in the heart of the Brookwood Mall area though not actually inside the mall. Parking is almost nonexistent on the street but there is a nice parking deck across the street. Sometimes they have valet parking. I met friends for lunch after church this morning. The place was quite busy but we were seated and served promptly. Brio's... More

We came here to celebrate our good friend's daughter having graduated from Birmingham Southern College. We very much enjoyed our little celebration here. The service was top notch and the food was even better. More

Lobster bisque and spicy shrimp with eggplant were above average. Chicken was very bland. Wine by the glass was a small portion for the price. Mixed drink was a full portion. Very crowded the night we were there so service was average. More

Go for the crab cakes and nothing else. Chicken under a rock; the rock would have been tastier and more moist. Wal Mart Deli has superior chicken and at least has flavor. Disserts were even poor. We all (8) had different varieties and not one was worth sharing. Even the ice cream was old; not fresh. Have been to this... More

We were in town on business and found that Brio was located right across the street from our hotel, in a charming shopping center. The trees were wrapped with little white lights and the center was more like a European market place rather than a typical shopping center. The most remarkable feature of this restaurant is the staff. The food... More

The lamb chops at Brio are excellent. Pasta is very good. There is outside seating when the weather is nice. Bread and breadsticks are excellent. More

We visited Brio on the last night of a business trip. I was beyond surprised with the experience we had. The service was wonderful. The staff were friendly and very helpful with meal suggestions. The meal sizes were just the right size for dinner. The atmosphere for the restaurant was nice, but it was an open area so there was... More
