Once it was the day, we were greatly so nicely and seated at our table. After that, the experience begin. Cuts of meat were coming out left and right.

    From the time we walked in until we left, we felt not but the utmost hospitality from the FoH staff. Our server was friendly, engaging, and knowledgeable about all aspects of the menu. The food came out timely and everything was delicious. We were seated near the chef’s counter and it was fun to watch things being prepared. The focaccia, cauliflower, beets, and short rib risotto were incredible and the cheesecake shouldn’t be missed. Highly recommend this for your next dinner spot

    I took a group to Brasero. We really enjoyed the option to do family style or the normal menu. The group split the porterhouse which was excellent. The noodles and fried rice were a great pairing. Service and the staff were friendly and engaging making for a great night.
