Brio Tuscan Grille - Richmond

It 's Saturday and we 're being lazy and there 's a bunch of kids here and we 're all hungry but no one wants to cook. Where can you go for takeout to feed a group where someone only likes fish, and someone only wants pizza, and someone craves chicken, and an adult wants an excellent Tuscan inspired healthy and delicious meal? You got it! Right here at Brio Tuscan Grille. Ordering was easy, and I scooted over to Stony Point Fashion Park arriving in about 20 minutes, and the order was ready! I entered the door and was greeted by Amy. Amy is one of those rare people you come across who it seems was made for the hospitality industry in any of its incarnations. Thoughtfulness, attention to detail, and authentic friendliness can 't be taught, it can only be honed and Amy has honed hers to a fine point. Kind, professional and pleasant. And a little girl leaving out the door as I came in was expressing her love to her as she exited. If Kids and adults approve you know you 've got a winner for sure. I didn 't expect to have my day uplifted by someone serving take out to me, but Amy accomplish that. She 's a gem they should keep in a permanent Tuscan Platinum setting. The food was phenomenal: The small pizza was devoured. The chicken parmesan, although a child 's portion was huge and the flavor was fantastic and everything you 'd want in a small plate of chicken parmesan. On the side of the chicken parm was campanelle with alfredo sauce and was a meal by itself for an adult, let alone a child. The sauce was smooth and not gritty like you 'll find in a lot of Alfredo sauces and the campanelle was still​ al dente. Great job! A child 's cheeseburger was ordered and was huge! Yes I finished the other half The fries were delicious and perfectly cooked. A side order of lobster bisque was added and it was excellent, especially when spooned up with the large chunks of bread they included. They also included very nice crackers. The star of the meal was 'Chicken Limone. I 'm telling you, you could not get a more well-prepared meal anywhere in the hills of Tuscany. This was sooo good and included moist and perfectly sauteed lightly breaded chicken breast, sauteed caramelized carrots, steamed broccoli, sweet red bell pepper, zucchini capers in a wonderfully light but rich lemon sauce that was perfectly seasoned. I used to straw to get the last bit of sauce from the corner... Seriously None of these meals today needed any seasoning or any home doctoring to make them absolute perfection on this day A double dose of awesome happened today beginning with Amy 's hospitality and ending with many satisfied people rubbing full bellies and thinking about naps. Mission accomplished Excellent!

Took my wife here for our date night and we were both thoroughly impressed. We had reservations after an event we planned but we were running late. We called the restaurant and the host promptly rescheduled us for 15 minutes later and confirmed that I wanted a bottle of wine on the table waiting for us. Upon arrival the location was very nice. The ambiance was romantic but not stuffy. The food was absolutely wonderful. We placed our orders and within 30 minutes we were eating our meals. Definitely recommend for romantic occasions, prom, date night, or corporate functions. A bit on the pricey side but not enough to make you reconsider. 5 star service, food, and wine.

We love this restaurant. It has a great feel, amazing bar, fantastic wait staff and service. The food has terrific as always. The Pesto pasta was so good that the crusty roll was used to get every bit of it! The Shrimp Capri was also delicious... sauced beautifully. Fingerling potatoes with rosemary were a hit as well. Portions were what should be expected! One of our favorite restaurants. Reservations assure you a table at this popular restaurant.

Brio offers delicious food and an impressive menu. I've visited several locations, but this one is my favorite. The interior is spotless, and the service is both prompt and friendly. I highly recommend trying the lobster bisque and calamari as appetizers.

The pasta was quite tasty. The bruschetta was decent. The other dishes were fresh and enjoyable.
