First time dining here and everything was exceptional! Drinks, food and our waiter Brad was very attentive. Highly recommend their pasta dishes, beef carpaccio was very tasty but could've been thinner (I'm picky when it comes to this dish). Creme brule was just right and went very well with salted caramel espresso martini!!

I was told this was the best Italian food in town and they did not disappoint. It was packed with people and they found me a seat and served me quickly. The staff was super friendly. The food was delicious and the portions were more than enough. I was so full, I had no room for dessert. I am definitely going again the next time I'm in town!

Restaurant Bricco was a very nice dinner experience with my parents. First of all, the service was wonderful. Our waitress was very kind and she was very prompt with service. She was on top of things, and I appreciate her. The food came out very quickly, the appetizer and the meals were out very shortly after we ordered them. The food was very nice as well. Now, I will say it was very loud in here, and sustaining a conversation was difficult. But, it was still a nice time. My only recommendation is to get a reservation for your table, because it gets very busy. We had a reservation and had to wait about 20 minutes, so definitely get that reservation. All in all, Restaurant Bricco was a nice experience with good food.

Came here for an early dinner. It was a birthday celebration of 10 people. Service was perfect. Food was amazing. Atmosphere was great. Our waitress made sure we had everything we needed. She was very helpful and on top of things. The food was perfect. The Pene pasta with vodka was as close to a 10/10 dish as you can get. The pork ribs melted right off the bone. The pizza dough was perfectly crisp. The gnocchi was ok. Overall it was delicious. The atmosphere was perfect. Not too loud that we couldn't hear each other talk, and not too quite where everyone else could hear us talking. Overall, amazing experience. Would definitely recommend.

We had an incredible meal at Bricco and every dish we ordered was a hit, starting with the carpaccio, which was super fresh and perfectly paired with arugula and shaved cheese. The whipped ricotta was another standout: creamy, rich, and amazing with the toasted bread. The shaved Brussels sprout salad was surprisingly one of our favorites: light, bright, and full of flavor, especially with the meatball on the side. And the pumpkin-topped pizza? Amazing. The crust was perfectly crisp, and the balance of sweet and savory made it unforgettable. What really elevated the whole experience was our bartender, Jay. His recommendations were spot-on, he was friendly and attentive, and he kept us laughing the entire time. You could tell he genuinely enjoys what he does, and it made our visit that much better. Highly recommend Bricco for great food, a fun atmosphere, and exceptional service. We’ll definitely be back!

Calming, comfortable and delicious. What a nice treat to have dinner at Bricco's. The welcome bread and oil was delicious, as well as the lobster ravioli appetizer. But what took it over the top was the Australian Lamb Chops. Perfectly cooked (medium rare) with a nice sear that made it so satisfying. The potatoes were also nicely baked. I only wished I had room for dessert. Next time! #recommended #bechego
