Brava Garden Eatery, Pleasanton CA

Food is good, serving staff was great. We had appetizers and 2 glasses of wine. While our apps were tasty, and portions generous, I still thought pricing was too high. Lunches/Dinners range $25-35, even for Salad. Our 2 apps/wine + a dessert to go was over $90 (incld tip).

Food was good, mine wasn't very warm by the time I got it and the service could have been a bit quicker/warmer - but we were a large group of around 20 so that may be why. I wished they had more Argentine cuts of meat like entrana and more of an Argentine malbec selection. The atmosphere was gorgeous! Overall I would return in a smaller group for a happy hour!

Nice atmosphere but $50 for an entree at a casual dining spot has to be questioned! Many dining choice open up at these prices

Disappointing experience. Well overpriced for the food we got. Mushroom pasta was good, but the Chicken Milanesa was overpriced for the quality of the food. We also ordered the habanero fries, which were a joke - $13 for simple French fries, some feta and garnish and a sauce that tasted like it came from a bottle. Overall, for the amount we spent on the meal, I’d much rather take my money elsewhere.

A lovely place to return to time and again for special meals, date nights, and celebrations.

Dining area is in a partially covered back patio with heat lamps.

My partner and I had the Argentinian BBQ with a sweet sauce and chimichuri sauce. Everything was wonderful.

We finished our meal with a delicious tiramisu.

The staff were very welcoming and kind.

Last night I went to dinner with some friends and they charged us $130 more. They added some drinks that we didn't consume and raised the tip.

This little eatery is big on service and quality. The food is actually the best I’ve had in a long time. Our waiter acted very much like an owner and kept walking back and forth to ensure everyone had everything they needed to make their experience a pleasant one. We will definitely go again.

Those who order on Doordash from this restaurant, please be aware that you may not receive your order at all or the food will be delivered late - not because of dasher's fault but because the staff here are habitual liers. When dashers arrive to pick up the orders, they tell them they don't have such orders at all or the order has already been picked up by another dasher. This is their ploy to get rid of dashers, especially when food is not ready at the promised time. Apparently they don't care about their own business or customer satisfaction. Most notorious one is a male staff in formals who thinks he is super smart. He even rudely asks dashers to wait outside on the sidewalk, apparently their presence inside makes him uncomfortable. After several inquiries he tells the dashers that order has never been received or some one else picked up the order. When dashers unassign the orders, their completion rating goes down for no fault of theirs. This unethical practice is hurting the hardworking food delivery drivers as well as the innocent customers who are eagerly waiting for their food at their doorstep.

Happened upon this place not too long ago and it's definitely my go to spot for pasta. They do gluten free pasta as well which my wife prefers even over Maggiano's. From the drinks, to the appetizer, to the pasta, everything is simply a delight. The people who work here are very friendly and accommodating. Seating is outdoors in the back with great ambiance. Price is the only thing to complain about, but definitely worth it for those times you want to treat yourself. Great date night spot for sure.

Their food has outstanding flavors in every bite. So good the portions almost feel like it's not enough. But the portions are hearty. Great place for special occasions.

Best meal I’ve had in a long time! Daniel was so friendly and the service was so quick. I’ll be back asap

I wanted this to be a great restaurant, but it was underwhelming. The Caeser dressing was from a bottle and had so much cheese.
The fries were frozen. I have to eat, charging $13 for frozen fries is nuts. But not as nuts as an extra $10 for 3oz.of chicken to add to that salad.

Food is delicious. Dining area is a bit small but that also makes it perfect. Food is a little pricey but MOST of it is worth it. The Habanero Fries were great but definitely not worth the price tag. Would highly recommend this place.

First time coming here with my gf. Our waiter was super great! Food tasted fresh and the spicy mango margarita was the bomb! We didn’t have reservations but got seated at the high table in the back. Great atmosphere for a dinner date!

Went to lunch here with some friends. Service was outstanding and great seating on the patio. The weather was perfect. The food was delicious as were the beautiful drinks from the bar. I believe the owners also run the business (with a great staff) and everything was exactly as ordered and beautifully served. Yes, I will definitely visit this place again. It’s a yes for me.

I came for lunch and ordered the empanada trio for $20. They looked and tasted like something that had just been heated up after being frozen - not terribly warm and were very dry if eaten without the sauce, (and colder once too much sauce was added). The chicken was mediocre, the cheese was terrible. For $20 this was one of the most disappointing lunches I’ve had in a long time. The outdoor area was nice and my waitress was really pleasant which is why I’m giving it 2 stars, but food-wise at that price it was a 1 at best.
