Reviews for Brio Italian Grille in Sterling Heights, MI
Ordered the lamb chops(medium rare)/spinach (appetizer) lobster bisque and ceasar salad w/shrimp (to go). Waitress was very... knowledgeable and pleasant. The first order of lamb chops were 'well done' and she immediately had them re-cooked. They ran outof lemonade so she made us non-alcoholic drinks comparable and better than the lemonade! Very good service and food was not thatbad. Read more
We were disappointed when we arrived and had to wait a few minutes to get seated even though there were 2 employees engaged in... conversation nearby. We also noticed that this happened again with another customer. Makes one feel unwelcome. When we satdown we were greeted by our friendly server, Victoria. She put the bread down and when we asked about the crackers we were toldthat they no longer put them out with the bread. ???? Unfortunately 2 of our bread plates were already soiled beforehand. Weordered lemocino lemonade and peach/ice tea. Both were very good. For appetizer we ordered carpaccio. That was delicious but wehad to order extra crackers. For our entree we ordered gorgonzola lamb chops and salmon Fresca. We thoroughly enjoyed those! Ihave not been to this location for a while because the last time I ate here we also experienced dirty plates. Makes me wonderabout the cleanliness of the kitchen. Used to be my favorite restaurant but sadly, not anymore. Read more
I've been to Brio in other locations and always get the Grilled Salmon Fresca. There weren't many people inside at all. Which... should have been hint, hint, clue #1. Secondly, no one came to greet, seat or assist us. We ended up walking up to the bar, andagain, no one attempted to greet or assist us. So my hubby, actively engaged the bar attendant about ordering carry out. Inwhich he replied, she walked away, left us standing there for a little while then said, I'll take your order. We probablyshould have just left but we didn't. This was our first time at this location so I opted for my favorite, the Salmon Fresca.However, the presentation was not what i expected and Salmon and asparagus were a little over cooked. It wasn't too bad butdefinitely not worth the price. My hubby ordered the Grilled Chicken Marsala. He was really disappointed. The meat looked andtasted like cheap frozen chicken breat and the marsala tasted like burnt gravy. Very disappointed. Due to the poor service,subpar food and high price, they earned 2 stars.

So I am only giving it 3 stars for the happy hour deal. A burger and potatoes for $6 is a great price especially since the... burger was very good. Calamari was also $6 during happy hour. Staff is very slow and they are short staffed a lot, calamari wasok. Flatbread was not good. Swapped for the sausage and pepperoni flatbread and it was just ok. Only good thing was probably theburger. Read more
The food here is so good I always enjoy it. The ambiance is great for a nice dinner. The staff was friendly as well.
Tried this place for lunch the other day and it definitely didn't disappoint! The mushroom ravioli with butter sauce was my... favorite! They also served fresh sourdough bread! I would love to come back for dinner! Read more
Food was great, over priced a bit, but I give four stars for the food. You’d think paying $26.00 for beef medallions would... include a side salad, but no. You have to pay an extra $5.99 for a side salad. Anyway, we’re sitting there, I look over nextto me and the counter separating all the booth sections are all REALLY dirty. Yuck!!! Even in the bar area. There was actuallypaper bits and crumbs along with the thick dust. I cannot believe they didn’t clean the surfaces separating the eating areas.All it would take is a small draft to blow that dust into your food. ????. I will not be going back, food was good butcleanliness was REALLY lacking, ick!! If their dining room looks like that…. Imagine what the kitchen must be like. Ewwww Read more
Was Thanksgiving to remember. The food was delicious & plentiful, the atmosphere was quiet & lush the service was the... Best. Our Thanksgiving plate had slices of Brest meat, stuffing, garlic mashed potatoes, green beans and cranberry. Baskets ofbread and punpkin pie for desert. Read more
