Brio Tuscany Grill - Dana Point

Hidden gem in dana point! the atmosphere is great and if they have luck, they get claudio as their server! he brings so good energy into the experience. the pasta is all homemade and delicious! my Italian grandmother would agree. will be back soon!

This is hands-down my favorite restaurant in OC! Every sauce is perfection. I've never had a disappointing meal. The bar has a Cheers type atmosphere where everyone knows your name. The staff is incredible (make sure to meet Mary, Shauna and Dwight and the patrons are all nice down-to-Earth people. There's never a shortage of someone to talk to if you're sitting up at the bar. On weekends they have live music and the atmosphere is lively! Love it, love it, love it!!

$26. For a small plate if spaghetti and 2 meatballs, waited :20 for the check, crappy music..... ridiculous.

First time in this area and we were met with an incredible ambiance. Live music, great recommendations, and overall delicious food. For all those visitors out there, eating here is a must! Shout out to Claudio and our server who recommended us the baguette!!

We've been here once before and loved it! It is our 31st wedding anniversary and we could've gone anywhere and decided to come back!! So glad we did. Mary was just as awesome second time around. Feels like we've made a new friend! Doesn't hurt that she makes terrific martinis and so knowledgeable about cocktails, the area and terrific food. The Tortellini Brio was the wonderful! Husband had repeat of what he had last time - Carolus Pasta. Delicious!
