Editorial Review for Brioso – by Valerie Moloney

In Short
Black-and-white photographs grace the sage-colored walls in this upscale L-shaped Mexican eatery. A tiny front bar brightens the room with its mosaic pattern. With chill, lounge-y tracks playing on the speakers, couples on dates feast on starters like seviche of halibut, shrimp, poblano, avocado and mango or carne asada, then follow with more substantial entrees such as slow-roasted adobo pork or pepper crusted-tuna served with fried plaintains and bok choy.

At night, Lincoln Avenue is quite a scene with its diverse crowd of pedestrians; grab a sidewalk table to watch passersby.

User Reviews for Brioso

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Very inventive, delicious dishes on a small menu, and the drinks are equally inventive and tastey! The number of entrees is limited, and becomes even more so if you're a vegetarian, but all the food itself is excellent. Very good date spot with nice atmosphere, though a tad crowded.

In a neighborhood where the many restaurants don't last, we truly hope Brioso is around for a long time. Fresh delicious "Mexican" food. We sampled all of their tacos--all were very good, but the shrimp taco was best. Incredible guacamole and even better mango margaritas.

Pros: Mango Margarita, friendly service, reasonable

Cons: tight space
