We had fish tacos. Good and spicy. A little too spicy for one of us.

First time here with our family. Our server Cassidy W was fantastic. The service, food and drinks were 5 stars. Will be back!

Service was decent and most of the food was good. The risotto was bland and the rice was overcooked. Fish tacos and pretzel ended up being the highlights.

Good food. Very loud place; sit in the back or outside if you want to talk with your party.

We had a fantastic dinner. Two people had the tomahawk and two people had the scallops. Both were cooked to perfection. We sat on the outside patio and it was a perfect evening to do that. Cody was our server. He was wonderful and had so many great suggestions. The cocktails are so beautiful and creative. Looking forward to heading back soon!

I enjoyed the Blackened Shrimp Tacos w/ rice and beans. It was full of flavor and so yummy. ? The Bloody Mary was the best too. My friend loved the French Dip and her Bloody Mary. But the best service came from Pam! She was very courteous and smiling with each encounter. She reminded me of Kelly Clarkson!! I loved that she split the chocolate cake so that we can have our own plate to enjoy it on. Nothing was left untouched. In all, we had a wonderful time and definitely will return.

Tonight was 5 stars. Some nights have been 3 stars. A few of the bartenders and wait staff are AMAZING a few are not. I've seen the owners be not so nice to staff but maybe that was just a bad day? Overall thougts: a hometown upscale joint that fills a "date night/happy hour/brunch cloth napkin" niche not otherwise found in LF.... And they take yiftee!

We had the nicest server at The Bru! He was so respectful, well spoken and polite. Very rare for a 19 year old. He was just as nice to the other customers around us as well. The food was great as always, you can't go wrong with anything on the menu.

This was our first time trying brunch. The food was great , as usual, but the noise level was overwhelming. Samson did a great job despite being crazy busy. We probably wouldn't go back for brunch unless outdoor seating was available to avoid the noise level inside.

I've enjoyed going to Bru since the second day they opened. The food, the servers and the patrons have all added to the quality of my life. To me they are extended family. I usually sit in the bar area but occasionally set reservations like I did the other night. I had the fig and arugula flat bread pizza and my friend Laslo has the Thai Chili Chicken-both were exceptional! If you haven't been yet, go!!! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do... ~j

The service at Bru is just awful.. I like to treat friends to Bru for the atmosphere and food.. You always get a nice super friendly young man to greet you.. that friendly guy has disappeared soo many times on my visits that I now ask first thing 'are you our guy 100%' ? yes I am they say.. Being in the business myself and dislike poor service more than most, it's gotten old here.. AGAIN, today I asked my server Parker, the usual 'are you our guy' ? He assured me all is good! Our food was delivered by a young man that looked miserable and never brought the extra plate requested when he knew they were sharing that dish.. my eggs were poached instead of scrambled for my benedict and nobody came back even though we were the closest table to the kitchen.. Our food was already lukewarm, so we started eating and finally I got up and got ketchup and hot sauce myself that is part of the meal for me.. We never had the chance to ask anyone.. Parker came by toward the end like as if all is great.. it wasn't! The third visit the hollandaise sauce was not HOT here !! The water for my hot tea was not hot either (really).. There is absolutely no excuse for the server to not check up on the customer after someone else has delivered it.. out of three people eating breakfast, someone is going to want something!!! The expeditor doesn't care.. The consistency of bad service here when these servers are not new and the place is not busy is soo disappointing.. Parker was simply socializing.. Do better Bru!

We had a large (ish) party (8 adults); our service was not as timely and responsive as it needed to be, and because we were out on the patio, there were not other staff members nearby. There were problems with a few of the meals, but since our server was not coming by, and no one else was available, we just needed to make do. I have been here before, and have had overwhelmingly positive experiences, so I will return.
