I usually do not do reviews, but I had to. 1 -Service was slow. The excuse from manager, a new cooking staff. 2 - Did not have ingredients for a drink. The entries were ok at best. 3 - you are persay an Italian restaurant, expresso machine is broke, so no speciality coffee drinks. 4 - Dessert, took forever wait just to be told after the order, no Gelato, no Buddy V's cake, or the chocolate molten cake.
I definitely will not return.

Mediocre food but great ambience. Fulisha was the worst server. We asked for a bottle of wine and water with lemon and she told us she needed to write it down so she'd remember. About 15 minutes before we get our drinks. We place our order and another 10 minutes she asks if we're ready to order. I really wasn't that hungry for two lunches. LOL

First time i took my family to BRAVOS. The atmosphere, service and food was beyond my expectations. i ordered the“ GRILLED SALMON FRESCA*Grilled salmon, asparagus, sweet potatoes,spinach, red peppers, feta, Roma tomatoes,pesto vinaigrette, balsamic glaze”My late was made to perfection with several requested accommodations. Thank you Executive Chef Robert for visiting my table to ensure you received my order clearly. Thank you Sean, Restaurant Manager, for a welcoming experience. We will be back.

What was suppose to be a quick lunch was ruined by poor service from the server and lack of understanding from the manager, not to mention the hostess who was ignoring some guests. The food was average, was never asked for a refill on our drinks or bread, one table next to us was missing food, another was fed up of waiting on the long delays like we were. By delays I mean things like getting the check or paying the check not the food, heck even just getting someones attention. Just horrible.

3.5/5 stars to be clearWhen we first arrived the hostess greeted us rather stiffly, but she was courteous. After being seated we were brought water and our order was taken.The calamari appetizer was a little overcooked and bland, but the sauce and breading were delicious. The kids' pizzas were very good, and the "best pasta" was pretty good. My chicken marsala was also good, but it was actually outshined by the sides (mashed potatoes and asparagus), go figure. Unfortunately the adult entres were finished about 10 minutes before the pizzas so me and my husband's food was barely warm while our children's pizzas were piping hot. The vanilla bean Gelato was also yummy, though nearly half melted when we got it.Our waitress was very friendly and professional. She was busy but did a great job. All in all we enjoyed our experience and would return.

Food needed a bit more flavor but overall was pleasant. Very good place if you prefer the more mild flavor.

9 of us met here for a book club in one of their side rooms. It had a cozy dining room feeling and the waiter was fantastic, handled all of our orders and separate checks without missing a beat.

Absolutely terrible service at this restaurant. waited over 20 mins to even be greeted, never received the tables bread, server was extremely rude, only came by our table maybe 3-4 times the entire meal, couldn’t even be bothered to bring a 2 year old a kids, took just as long to get our food as it did our drinks all for some mediocre pasta with barely any sauce.
