Food was delicious! Service was great - we hand an awesome dinner . We did the Chef Menu tasting for $50 per person that came with two appetizers, meal for two , dessert and 3 glasses of wine each. It was so much of delicious food - we had to take a lot of it home . We will definitely return.

Had a great experience at Brasero! Sat at the bar and the bartender was great. I highly recommend the option where they pick the courses for you. Everything was absolutely amazing. The oyster and steak frites were my favorite.

Always an excellent meal. We very much like the tasting menu but everything we have had has been excellent. Service is first rate and the ambience is great. We tend to like a table in the bar area as the tables are larger. We continue to be impressed with the quality of the food and service.
