Brio Tuscan Grille

A new addition, like so many at Fashion Place Mall, has opened this week.  Brio, a Tuscan Grille restaurant, is sandwiched between Nordstrom and the soon-to-be Crate & Barrel facing west.


It was the group consensus (4 of us) that this place tops Olive Garden on a bad day.  Price ranges are $9-15 with a good variety of Bruchettas, Paninis/Sandwiches, and different pastas.  The menu isn't large, but the food is so flavorful and unique.

Our experience began with outdoor dining on a fabulous September day in Utah.  :)

Brio- the bread came with crispy pita covered
in assorted seeds/seasonings and butter

Lobster bisque ($3.95) with fresh ingredients in a presentable and appealing bowl

Mushroom ravioli: delicious, cheesy, and a HUGE plate :)

Grilled sandwich with their very own made chips

The Pasta Brio with a lemonade

I ordered the eggplant pomodor panini with wild rice. (~$9)
The bread was perfectly toasted, and arugula made this amazing!

The rice was nothing I'd ever had before- possibly one of my
favorite side dishes ever.  EVER.

Tiramisu in a cup (usually comes in a carousel of other cups
such as carrot cake, strawberry cheesecake, chocolate mousse,
etc.) and the creme brulee with a fresh strawberry.  :)  

The Tiramisu had a heavy coffee liqueur flavor and the creme brulee was creamy and sweet with a hint of strawberry.  :)

Overall, I would definitely go back for more to try other items on the menu.  Would not recommend if you're looking for quantity- however, none of us finished our plate.  The portions are a fair size.

Try it out!
