Brutole was highly recommended by friends so we decided to try it. We were very impressed from the moment we walked through the doors. It was early on a Sunday evening and the restaurant had only a few diners and a few people at the bar although when we left 2 hours later there were many more diners. The maitre d' was very friendly and we were seated immediately. I read the previous reviews about the snooty attitude of wait staff and you "needed to know someone to be treated well"----that was not the case with us! Our waiter could not have been any nicer and was more than attentive, friendly and very proficient. The food was fantastic----we split a caesar sald, which on its own, could be a meal. The warm aromatic french bread arrived soon after we sat down. It was accompanied by a dish of olive oil for dipping. We had chicken marsala and veal marsala as entrees. The food was beautifully presented, arrived hot and the portions were very generous. The pasta was the only disappointment in that it was tri-color rotini and was not fresh pasta. The marsala was subtle, creamy and not overdone or bitter in any way. We shared a Warm Chocolate Raspberry Souffle and Vanilla Bean Ice Cream for dessert. It was very good but a little too firm and overdone for our taste. Coffee was piping hot and really quite good. -All in all, it was a great experience and we plan to return again soon.
I used to eat here every couple of months. The maitre'd acts distant and snooty and as others already commented, the waitstaff is spotty. You don't get a welcoming feeling. The locations is post industrial; not all that nice. That said, the food was pretty good generally.
I deign returning because of the general unfriendliness of the place.
Depends on who you are.: You get that old Italian feel with the people here. If you know someone, or they know you, you are treated like royalty. If not, well, there's your unhappy reviews.
The food is often stellar. Try the roasted beet salad!
Service is great (I know someone).
