Types
Brio Tuscan Grille’s food choices are split into multiple menus including a menu for lunch, dinner, dessert and a children’s menu. A brunch menu is also available on Saturdays and Sundays. Each menu includes a selection of steaks, homemade pasta and flatbreads.
Features
Along with preparing homemade pasta, other menu options are made with fresh ingredients with some of the most common ingredients including chicken, cheese and cream sauces. As the features of the menu options change with ingredients and cooking methods, the overall nutritional content from calories, fat, carbohydrates and protein also changes.
