If you're ever in Tyson's during a weekday around lunch, Brio's has some pretty good lunch specials for around $12. I got an enormous iceberg wedge salad and a plate of their lasagna. The cream sauce...

I agree with the observation that this was an expensive version of Olive Garden. I actually thought that as I was sitting in the restaurant. Caesar Salad with browning lettuce. Soupy risotto. Meh.
