I work downtown very close to Brioso and stop by regularly for lunch. It's a great casual place for sandwiches, salads, soups, etc. Their food is very reasonably priced and delicious, with a gourmet touch. I have no idea about the ""pill popping ravers"" mentioned in the other review, but their coffee is fine for me! The staff is always very friendly and helpful, and more than willing to answer any questions. The only drawback is that it's wildly popular during the lunch hour, so wait times can sometimes be up to 20-30 minutes. I've found if I go at 11 or 1 it's less crowded.
Pros: Delicious food, friendly knowledgeable staff
Cons: Wait times can be long during the lunch rush
