This is a great casual place to enjoy well-prepared simple Italian food. Staff is helpful and great, ambience is very comfortable, taking us back in time. Slightly high on pricing, but typical for Scottsdale so a neutral. Since we started going there about thee months ago we've returned at least once a month and will continue to do so.

The food at Brugos is always amazing as is the server. The owner is great and always takes the time to come and say hi to us. The pizza here is the best around and we will always make this one of our go to restuarants.

Two couples. We each ordered a pizza. It took nearly an hour to get both pizzas. Dinner salad took 15 minutes. Service at this restaurant is always slow. Pizza was marginal. I should have ordered lasagna or chicken piccata.

Whether you are looking for a place to enjoy a glass of wine, a great happy hour, or a nice meal, this is a great place for it all. The atmosphere is cozy, comfortable and relaxing. Sit inside or outside - both are wonderful. Most of the people there are regulars (just that alone says a lot). Patrick is a great bartenders knows most of the people there. He is there most nights. Nichole is equally as wonderful. The food is fantastic! The thin crust pizza is so great, full of flavor and a crispy crust. The meatballs are a favorite appetizer. If you haven't been here you should definitely try it out.

One of my very favorite dishes is the chicken, artichoke white garlic sauce pizza. I have ordered it many times in the restaurant and even ordered takeout. Some months ago I came for dinner and ordered it and frankly it was nothing like what I'd had before. I was very, very disappointed. The other night was my second chance to see if that had just been a bad night. This was better but still nowhere near what it had been in the past. Sad.

We love this place! Friendliest people (both servers and clientele), and an outstanding bartender, Patrick. We love their meatballs, white happy hour pizza, and the calamari. Sitting at the bar with Patrick and the other guests is my happy place?

Brugos has the best Italian food (pizza included), friendly wait staff and a beautifully decorated interior with a noise level that allows conversation. One of my favorite local places.

As this is our go to Italian restaurant, everything is outstanding. Their pizza is second to none. All the entrees are old family recipes, and prepared and served beautifully. The owners and staff are customer oriented and friendly. Can't really give a higher recommendation. Brugo's is great!

Neighborhood Italian Restaurant that claims award winning pizza on its sign. Every Friday, we eat pizza and salad for dinner. While we have some favorite restaurants, always open to try somewhere new. Tonight, we went to Brugos. Our Caesar salad was cold, crisp romaine cut in bite sized pieces and the dressing was perfect. My disappointment was in boxed croutons and generic grated cheese.We ordered the Margherita pizza - my go to for every first time restaurant because I believe it is the purest pizza. I love to taste the tomato, cheese and basil without the distraction of toppings. Tonight's pizza was disappointing at best. The crust had a nice chew but was tasteless. The sauce was flavorful, but there needed to be more of it. The description on the menu said the pizza included "4 of the most expensive cheeses, Mozzarella, provolone, amazing imported parmesan and asiago." Like the crust, the cheese was tastless. My husband commented that he'd eaten better frozen pizzas from the grocery store. All of the 16" specialty pizzas, which includes the Margherita, are $38. However, they have a build your own 16" with a base price of $22.50. After dinner, I asked the server what the difference was between the $38 Margherita and the $22.50 Cheese and he said the Margherita has 4 cheeses and the Cheese only has Mozzarella!!!Having eaten in hundreds of Italian/pizza restaurants, I consider myself a good judge and Brugo fails the test for taste and value. We won't be going back.
