"I 'm so conflicted. My bf took me here for birthday dinner last year and it was one of the greatest steaks I 've ever had in my life. Today for brunch was overpriced, sub-par, and exceptionally rude service from our main server. My pastrami sandwich was fine, but the pastrami should have been the star and instead it was drowned out by the cheese, slaw, egg and dressing, and the egg was way overcooked. The fried pickles were good, but overkill with the potato salad that had a pickly taste to it already. And btw, the potato salad was good, but I 've had much better. For $24, I expected more from this dish. The duck egg burger was just alright, nothing special, including the fries, but the best dish by far was the shakshouka. The labneh really set it off. However, the egg was supposed to be poached, and for all three people who got this dish, the egg was overcooked and solid instead of runny. Again, I expect the quality to be a lot better at a place like this. For drinks, the green juice was delicious, but my mom, a ****** mary connoisseur, said it wasn 't that good at all, and that was a $16 ****** mary. Finally, when the check came, I noticed they charged us for water, and with three bottles at $9 each, I had to say something. For a drink that 's supposed to be free be $27, that definitely should have been communicated to us. I nicely told the server that and she replied with the rudest, nastiest, ok, what do you want me to do about it? attitude. She returned with the water taken off, but the attitude that came with it was completely uncalled for. It 's a shame that the brunch experience was nowhere near the quality of the dinner experience a couple years ago. For that, I 'm not sure that I can return without heavy convincing from trusted sources that it 's safe to go to again."

"I was very disappointed at the treatment of my recent visit to la briola! added, it was an additional point night and the place was crowded, but the workers of the treatment of the situation was terrible. being greeted by a long line was not unexpected, but I had a reservation from open table. there were only 2 people who took orders and left one after the order! Now we were on a person, they called someone from behind to command. When we came into register and our ordering tasks, we were told that they were from all specials for the evening, the roasted chicken, the salmon and several other options! that was only a little after 6! the register operator had no idea how the points were credited and when he asked who we saw about our reservation, he looked at me empty and asked “what reservation?” I explained that we had a reservation from open table for 6 at 6:15 he said he had to ask a manager. he never asked my name and then wanted to know if we were all there and what we wanted to eat! I had just finished my order, each one of us had ordered individually so that we had the right order! very unprofessional and a little disappointing. I went to the restaurant regularly in la briola, since its opening in 2008, and the quality of the food and service is in the rule excellent, were even at other events where everything was handled smoothly, but this last encounter was anything but good."
