bravo! cucina italiana. an italian chain restaurant new to wlr. traditionally, i avoid chain restaurants like i avoid high fructose corn syrup...but, an invitation lead me here. the restaurant attempts to be grand, & it is huge. it has the same italian kitchen layout as a few other italian chain restaurants around town->think; a tiled half wall with a visible kitchen and busy cooks behind that half wall grilling. i started my night in chains with the chopped salad. iceberg topped with cucumber, red onion, feta cheese, a couple of tomatoes and olives. sounds like a greek salad but it came closer an italian deli style salad. next up was Frutti di Mare, a mix of shrimp, scallops, mussels, and clams in a flavorful broth topped with pesto bread crumbs over tender fettuccine. YUM. bravo!’s dishes are heavily spiced and more flavorful than other italian chain restaurants i’ve tried. i really enjoyed my meal and my evening. which brings me to this conclusion: a restaurant experience is improved by the company you keep. top that with good service and you’ve got one fun night. try bravo! you’ll like it.
