Brio Tuscan Grille

I went to Brio for dinner last night. They provided me with a gluten free menu which I was excited about. I finally received my meal, took a bite and the manger came running over in a panic saying you were supposed to have GF right? Don’t eat that.... kinda to late I already had a bite. I was appreciative the manager came running over when they realized but I was disappointed the waiter was not trained properly on food allergies to the point where he ignored that I said Gluten free like 4 times when ordering, I even verified when the food came to the table... I’m really disappointed and will probably not go here again because of it.

No

Great gluten free dining experience! I loved eating here! Ate here twice so far. They have a gluten free menu. The first time I tried the gluten free pasta. The pasta had a great consistency and the sauce was very flavorful and delicious. The second visit I had the grilled salmon salad. The salmon was grilled on a wood smoke grill which gave it a wonderful flavor and it was perfectly cooked and seasoned. The salad was the freshest salad I have had at a restaurant in ages. The balsamic dressing was perfect with the salad and I enjoyed my meal so much. I was with two other people, one ordered angel hair pasta with chicken and raved about how flavorful it was. The other had the regular version of the salmon salad (which came with some crispy cracker-like strips so be sure to order the gluten free version if you get the salad) and she loved it also. I want to mention the ambiance. It was bright, roomy, relaxing and nicely decorated. It reminded me of being at a Disney resort (which is a great thing for me). I will definitely be going back soon! They have one gluten free dessert, Creme Brûlée, which was very creamy and delicious.

The chef was very understanding and came out without my asking him to. He brought out the ingredients list for the pasta to make sure I had no allergies to it. They let me make my own dish and were careful to double check that every last thing was definitely gluten free. I felt very safe and had a great meal!

I went here for my prom date right before prom started. I informed my waitress of my gluten allergy and she seemed to understand. She brought out me and my boyfriends meals and everything seemed to be fine. I was feeling a little off and bloated when the chef ran out to tell our waitress she had given me ACTUAL pasta. There's really no way of determining the difference between gluten pasta and gluten free pasta at these locations. I highly doubt they have any separation between the two. If you have celiac do not eat here. Allergies are not taken seriously.

I worked here briefly. None of the "gluten free" options are safe. All of the "gluten free" pasta is cooked in the same water at the same time as the gluten pasta. The cook uses the same spatula all night on all dishes, so even the risotto is contaminated. There are no special protocols for gluten free meals at all, even if it is an allergy. Additionally, servers are supposed to know which items are gluten free/dairy free/peanut free and they just take a guess. I sent people away who asked for gluten free due to an allergy or Celiac because I knew nothing from the kitchen here was safe. As a Celicac, I never ate anything from the kitchen. The management will insist that their gluten free options are indeed gluten free because they don't know what gluten is. The grilled chicken is okay unless the grill cook uses the pasta spatula to flip it, which he often does. Even the strawberry salad uses contaminated candied pecans.

My daughter worked here, they cook the GF pasta in the same water as regular pasta. Avoid if you're serious about GF.
