Brunello Trattoria Restaurant & Bar

"Went with wife and had beef carpaccio app, rigatoni bolognese was authentic Sicilian an I had the veal parm....I was very impressed with the food and service! Our server Bonnie was great..."

"I can't believe I spent the money I spent here. I just came home from there, and ordered three apps to go. We ordered Korean BBQ skewers. There was NOTHING Korean about it. It was just bbq sauce, like sweet baby rays. That's embarrassing for a restaurant! You can't claim to have Korean BBQ and not have it. It's false advertising. Included a pic. We also got the chicken parm potstickers. Included a picture. There is nothing potsticker about this dish. It tasted like canned pasta. We also ordered the eggplant, mozzarella, and tomato app. The tomatos were unripe and crunchy. These apps are $12-$14 a piece and are terrible. I have never left a review before for any restaurant, but I will never go back there and you should never order from there."

"Fabulous Food, Specialty Drinks, Service as well as the atmosphere was wonderful. Also, there was great entertainment as well."

"I have had a poor experience here before they had closed for a bit but when I heard that Jonas from 55 Main fame was there as the head Chef, we were all willing to give this place another try. Jonas's food is the best but even his cooking will not save this place as it all comes down to service, which is subpar. Some things never change, the biggest flaw with this place is the service. You walk in and there is no visible "check in" desk or kiosk. There was a very noisy bar to the right and stairs in front of us, so we walked up the stairs and were greeted by a woman who had an attitude, "What are you doing up here?" I told her we had reservations and she walked us back down the stairs and into the Bar to a small kiosk/desk that was NOT visible from the entrance to ONLY be taken back upstairs to our table. There were 6 in our party and we waited much too long for someone to come over and greet our party. When they finally did, I asked for the Wine List and was told, "We don't have one to give out because the prices are wrong"..... Okay, so I asked what Cabernet's they had and she started reading off names as if I knew how much each variety was, I finally stopped her and just said give me the "House Cab" and asked for the price so I knew, which she replied "I don't know". We had to ask for bread for the table and when it arrived there were four pieces of bread for six people. When we asked for more we were given major attitude. As mentioned prior the BEST part of this place is now Jonas and his food, it was fantastic, that being said, as much as I liked the food the poor service will prevent me from coming back for sure. Time for our bill and even though we asked for separate checks to make it easier (as I am sure the current staff could not handle splitting the check) my bill was still incorrect as there was an item on my bill from another couple. BUT first I received a check and card from another table!!!!! NEVER had a bad experience at 55 Main (ever) and it's unfortunate that I will miss Jonas's culinary delights, as the service here will definitely keep me from a return visit. The success of a restaurant never solely lies on the food, but also the service and I will never sacrifice service no matter how good the food is. This was the flaw prior to Jonas coming on board and it appears that the poor service has ported over to the second opening."
