We visited for the Monday special and were not disappointed. $20 per person for lasagna dinner w salad. We sat in the lounge/bar and the bartender was really a great person. All the staff were friendly and attentive.

Great place to get Italian!! Probably the best bruschetta I’ve had in a long time! Servers were awesome and attentive. We noticed the manager walking around and talking to the tables checking in. He’s even seen helping the staff which I think contributes to a great environment. My only critiques: 1) the volume. Not much you can do about it, but lots of people talking so like other people suggested, probably not the best spot for an intimate date. 2) next to the host podium are two high top tables that I feel are way too close to the door. We didn’t sit there, but I dreaded the idea that we would be. I think if these two were removed, it would create a better entry way and reduce the risk of a bad experience. Regardless, I would definitely come back for that pesto and bruschetta!

My boyfriend and I went here for dinner and we’re very pleased! We got the bruschetta, rigatoni Alfredo, and I forgot what the red pasta was called, but it’s spicy and delicious! Everything was very tasty and staff was very friendly. I look forward to coming back 🙂

Tremendous value in Italian dining especially these inflationary times. They have dinner specials that are deliciously prepared. Amazing atmosphere with friendly and pleasant staff. Their house bread and chimichuri dipping sauce together with their house chopped salad are both amazing. Their main enteees are very tasty.

One word: WOW! I went to Bruno’s for the first time in April 2023 and had the most amazing meal. Our waiter Bobby was awesome and super friendly. The food was absolutely delicious! They had a weekend special, 3 courses for $30 with chicken parmigian, and it was fantastic. My husband had lasagna and a side of meatballs. Everything on the table was beyond great. We are officially fans and are talking about our next visit. They also have specials throughout the week that we will definitely check out. Highly recommend!

My family came here for dinner after my uncle recommended this place. We enjoyed its atmosphere and the quality of service. The food was kinda salty for our preference but still delicious. The pasta is even made from scratch. I also highly recommend the tiramisu for dessert.

This place has a special place in our hearts. Delicious steak with amazing potatoes, garlic, cipollini mushrooms, and garlic. The meatballs are ridiculously good along with the house bread and olive oil. The only thing I would say is that, their wine selection is extensive but we were told sharply that only 3 taste are allowed per table! We would have loved to have tried a little more than 3 wines and we had quite a few people at our table that love wine and we would have ordered way more wine if we could actually try a small sample first. Aside from that the cocktails and food was amazing.

Always a great dining experience. GM Tim is attentive to everything going on AND the customers. Erin, the bartender, is creative and gragarious and has his regulars at the bar. I used to like dining at a table with my other half, but we are becoming regulars at the bar. It’s like a neighborhood bar , friendly and a good time. They have great happy hour specials and nightly specials…definitely a place to frequent . . .

My wife and I had a wonderful impromptu date night at this establishment. We did not have a reservation and were seated promptly but I think that was just luck. I highly recommend a reservation because they were busy. They also have some phenomenal specials for the weekends that make it very affordable. The sauce was excellent and the broccoli was perfect. We had some drinks that were expertly mixed and our waitress was friendly fast efficient and funny. A wonderful evening, 5 out of 5 would recommend.
