Bravo! Italian Kitchen

The food was great, and the portions were adequate and balanced. The atmosphere for being a Friday, was quiet. Our server who was also the bartender was busy and had other tables outside the bar area to maintain as well. She was a vey friendly individual, but a little to tasked(we felt for her). We can see the sign of the times as they were lacking servers in general. This did cause delays in getting drinks/refills. The outside of the facility needs a little TLC as their restaurant name has bulbs out. Again the food was awesome, but service is a little slow.

Honestly, Bravo has potential. With some small improvements, the food could actually be good. The bread was borderline cold, but the actual taste and texture was wonderful. Just serve it fresh out the oven. I ordered the Bravo Woozie and it was lukewarm and the spinach was undercooked. If served hot and fresh, it would have been great. My friend ordered the rigatoni dish and the pasta was slightly undercooked and hard tasting, and also lukewarm. With little tweaks, Bravo could go to the next level. The decor and ambience of the restaurant is wonderful. I was expecting the food to match this quality, and it sadly did not. I was disappointed with my experience here. For the price, we felt we could have gone to Olive Garden and been more satisfied.

Went here for a repass after a funeral. The food was wonderful. The ambience was excellent. The service was impeccable. Couldn’t of asked for more in terms of food quality, experience, service, and pricing. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for an excellent place to old and event or even a small gathering.

We ordered fettuccine Alfredo (omg the sause was so delicious!), fried mozz raviolli ,spaghetti pomodoro, and an eggplant dish which I forgot the name of 😅. All of it was delicious. Ambience is sublime. The time I visited it, it was nearly 1.30 pm on a Thursday so it was quite and not crowded ,yet the service was not as quick as one would expect. I also had a creme brulee, it was my first time having it ever and I'd say it could have used less sweetness.

I would not recommend Bravo Livonia for your group event. I have had some time to consider my review, to ensure I am being fair in all factors. The main reasons that I would not recommend are for the customer service in both the planning aspect and in the waitstaff, and for the overall quality given the price. I booked with Bravo Livonia for our Wedding Rehearsal Dinner in 2021. The planning was a headache from the start, due to having to do it over the phone, with differing coordinators, etc. For instance, one planner told us we could have the room from 730P – 1030P, but then I got a call from someone else who said we had to be out by 10P, and to bump us up to a 7P start. When I tried to confirm if it was okay if we were late, since they moved us earlier to accommodate, it was impossible to get a straight answer, which was very frustrating as we were traveling quite a distance to make the 7P arrival. On the day of the actual event, the service was incredibly slow, and we actually ended up leaving around 1030P anyways, simply because the food took so very long to arrive. It was the slowest service I have ever experienced, which was incredibly disappointing, given that they had known we were coming for months in advance. And even then, orders were incorrect. The one positive was that the overall quality and taste of the food was good, and the drinks were good. At the end of the day, it was not a great experience with the service and planning, and for those reasons, I would not want to do it again. I would rather pay more money for better service in the future. I don't even have any photos from that night, as we did not enjoy it.

My server Nina was very nice. Only pleasant experience here. My chicken bravo came out, and the sauce was popping hot, but the noddles were cold. I know they are cooked in advance, but some kind of warming to the pasta needs to happen. Chicken was okay, a little chewy and I had a piece of gristle in mine but I was given half a breast, and for the price, I expected more protein. Chocolate cake was not done either, it was cooked enough to hold mold, but I might as well have eaten cake batter.
