    Grilled Lamb Chops
    Miranda C.

    We sat at the bar after a day of exploring to grab a few appetizers and a pizza. The bartenders were so friendly with suggestions of food options and wines. The mint sauce served with the lamb chops was outstanding. I could have eaten 3 more lamb chops. The mussels were on specials and very flavorful, garlicky and the broth was drinkable. No pic of the pizza selection, but perfect for sharing!

    Wonderful food! It never disappoints. Whenever we're in town, we love to visit. The cocktails are excellent, the wine list is impressive, and the tapas are perfect for sharing. Great cocktails.

    stopped in for drinks. Prosecco for $12/ glass. I sat by the bar. The place was busy on a Saturday. The food looked great. Next time I'll come for dinner.

    Friendly staff and decent food. We ordered the mushroom pizza, patatas bravas and chicken wings. The pizza was good but the patatas bravas and wings were lacking. We had the patatas a few years ago and they were excellent, this time around they were lacking flavor. The wings were rubbery.

    Another hot spot in Lenox. Great tapas menu. The lamb chops are a most. Perfectly cooked. I sat at the bar. The dining area filled up quickly. Nice place to share tapas.

    My wife and I stopped in for Valentine's Day last night and were reminded why Brava is the best restaurant in the Berkshires. We have been three times and every time we go we are impressed. Initially we were hesitant, thinking it would be over priced but it is always less expensive than we expected. Pizzas, wings, and the bread pudding were the favorites this time. 10/10.

    Delicious wine

    We chose the tapas place Brava as our dinner out while staying in the Berkshires, and were not disappointed. A warm, inviting interior, friendly service, lovely wines and awesome wild mushroom pizza made for a nice dinner date.

    Will return. A lovely restaurant with a few pockets of dining areas: very good food and service. Love their floors and color scheme. It feels tranquil during this time of the year, compares to summer months when it's always hectic. Chickpeas is wonderful - both texture and taste. Scan to pay is great!

    Looks like skimpy cheese but it was great!

    Very rarely do you find a place which gets close to 5-stars with as many reviews ... now I see why. The food here is excellent and the beer and wine list is very creatively sourced. Another cool thing is that they are open on Monday, which many restaurants in the Berkshires are not. And they are open late ... until 10 or 10:30 p.m.! We had their pizza and it was everything others say it was. Our favourite was the one with Fontina, Prosciutto and Arugula. It was unique and very fresh testing. No tomato sauce on this one ... but we also had a plain cheese and tomato sauce and it was very good as well. Some of the beers they had on draft are hard to find, even in cans! Their wine selection was good ... and we are fussy wine drinkers. The atmosphere is great ... it feels upscale and cozy without seeming pretentious. The music and vibe are perfect and there was enough space between tables and bar seats where we felt comfortable. The prices are what you'd expect from one of the Berkshires' wealthiest towns. You pay around $20 for a pizza, depending on toppings. There is only one size pizza and it easily would feel 2 people, unless you were really hungry. I'd say it is around medium sized. The staff toggles between friendly and a bit prickly. Even the prickly ones are helpful, however. You can tell a lot of locals go here, as well as tourists. On a Monday night, it seemed like more locals and there was a good vibe and buzz without it being too empty and creepy or too crowded and loud. We will certainly come back here when staying in the area! The food is excellent and the vibe is awesome ... clean, uncluttered and warm. The only thing that would have been better is if they had their gas fireplace on. We can verify that this place earns its 4.75 stars. We give it 5!

    A great place to find a new craft beer or wine. The tapas and even the pizza are all winners.

Lenox has some really cool spots and Ombra is one of them. Recommended by a local, we stopped here on Valentine's Day after our dinner for a nice glass of wine. The place was crowded but luckily a few people were leaving so we scored some seats at the bar. I ordered a glass of Nebbiolo from Italy which was good. My husband had a beer. The place is so cute and very romantic with dim lights, a great wine selection and their food looked so good. Unfortunately, we were so full that we did not end up ordering anything. Although, the french fries were calling my name. Ombra is a place that I could see us coming to almost every week and not getting tired of it. We met a local who is very nice and told us how Ombra is very popular. I think we will have to come back in the spring/summer to get those french fries :) If you are ever in Lenox definitely make your way to Ombra for a nice glass of wine or try a cocktail. This is the perfect date night spot for sure whether you start or end your evening here, you will be happy! Cheers~

He served up multiple mocktails and cocktails with aplomb and even pulled off a ginger and lychee combination that shouldn't have worked but was delish. Almost everything else missed the mark. Staff should know to de-vein shrimp before sending out skewers. They should also know what "black and blue" means if they're serving steak. Another table ordered it and five staff members huddled around a phone at the bar to look it up like they were searching for Pokémon. The orecchiette had perfect texture, but truffle oil made half the plate inedible. The Persian crispy rice, the dish I was most looking forward to, was a complete let down. The rice was well cooked, but the eggplant filling was nearly flavorless and the meager amount of smoked tomato couldn't save it. The roasted mushroom board was good though we improved it ourselves by spreading leftover s'chug from the shrimp skewers onto the bread and layering the mushrooms on top. It also had truffle for some reason. Why? Dulu has the right ingredients to be top tier. This just wasn't their night. The bartender rescued the evening. Give that man a raise.
