"I concur with reviewers on other sites who equated this restaurant with Carrabba’s. This restaurant upholds the SoFlo tradition that there are not a lot of options down here for good Italian food. We went here because friends were staying at a hotel on 17th Street. It is not a place I would likely return to because if I wanted this type of food, I would go to Carrabba’s and save a lot of money. Bravo is okay but over-priced for the quality of food. Don’t bother trying the pizza, it’s not pizza. The trend lately has been for restaurants to offer “Artisan” pizza. While I get that, some restaurants do a great job with this trend. Bravo does not. It’s like a quesadilla with too much cheese and they use dried spices, not fresh. It’s not a pizza place or an Italian restaurant for that matter. It’s a tourist trap that serves pasta and other dishes with Italian names. As for service, they’re attentive for sure and we all know that servers are supposed to up-sell customers. This place is overly pushy about the up-sell to the point that it is a distraction. We were waiting for them to offer us a set of steak knives if we were willing to hear a pitch about buying a timeshare. Okay, that an exageration but you get the point. Can’t really say anything too bad about Bravo other than it’s not worth the trip and it’s not exciting. If you would like to overpay for average food and want to try it, go ahead (Just don’t order the “Pizza” . Everytime I read a review that contains too many upper case letters, words like “Amazing”, or overuse of exclamation points, I skip it and am usually right. You guys have to knock it off as very few reastaurants are capable of creating a food-gasm."
