Love this place for great pasta ! Never disappoints, great service each time. I usually go on Wednesdays, pasta and wine bottles are half off (: my favorite pasta dish isbthe rigatoni alfredo 2.0 i add chicken and shrimp. Also there tiramisu dessert is my favorite (:Theres two parking structures adjacent from the restaurant which is nice. Restaurant is in a nice location.

Don’t let the rating fool you. The food is horrible, but the drinks were okay. Not sure why the rating is high. Much better Italian restaurants locally.

They have very good food, and we waited 30 minutes just for two pasta ? Seems like a very popular restaurant and the staff was also nice.

Fresh pasta! Really good Italian food around the area with great flavor. Nice ambience! Got the short rib pasta and the shrimp and crab pasta. Great combo! Only thing is don’t get their tiramisu (it was the most average I have ever tasted…plus the owner said the alcohol is “cooked off” and completely safe to consume if you’re pregnant or if there are kids but you can clearly taste it. Go with another dessert option)

Food was delicious, portions were perfect. Although service was good, place was a little too busy, server could have come around a bit more often.

Had dinner with Familia. Tried something different, Salmon. It was beautiful. Everything about Brunos is great. Staff, food, ambience, etc.

Haven't been to Bruno's in awhile. The fresh bread and dipping sauce was really good. I ordered a Negroni and it was made perfectly! My husband had the Cioppino and added pasta to it. He loved it! I ordered off the restaurant week menu — butternut squash soup, rigatoni in Alfredo sauce with prosciutto and mushrooms and pancetta for dessert. Loved everything! We'll definitely start coming here more often.

Brunos has outstanding food and service. The food is really fresh & made to perfection with quality ingredients. My family has went there for many special occasions and we cant recommend it enough. Give it a try, you'll be happy you did.

Bruno's never fails to impress. The food is amazing. I try to get something different every time I visit. Their lasagna is amazing. This has become a tradition for my family "girls" night. Rachel is an amazing server!

Bruno's is a restaurant gem! This place is great for every day and special occasions. the bartenders are all excellent mixologists, great wine list, and the wait staff is on point. The incredible weekly specials make me wonder why other eateries have not found the same magic. Noticed the manager visiting every table. Reservations are a must in my experience. Very lively room but not because of too loud music, everyone just having a good time.

We had reservations at 7:45. We arrived at 7:20 just to ensure that we would be in on time. Disappointed we weren't brought until 750. Other people were going in the head of us that had much later reservations the ladies upfront said they texted me. I had no text on my phone nor did My Wife, the server must've been in cahoots with the ladies upfront because he gave us the cold shoulder, but later came around, brought us our dessert with no spoons ran out of water. He never offered to refill all in all for the price of dinner service was terrible. I would not recommend this establishment for Valentines or any other holidays. Very very disappointed as I made my reservations two weeks prior. If you're looking for romantic made out go somewhere else

We went for Valentine's Day, which of course you expect to be busy, but it seemed to be very overbooked. There was a pre-fixe at $58 per person but the experience did not live up to that from my perspective. It was very rushed with dinner coming before the first course was cleared. My son's meal looked overdone, mine was bland, my husband's was perfect. I asked for a 2nd glass of wine but it didn't come until I had completely finished my entree. Our finished plates sat for at least 20 minutes before being cleared. We will return, but not for a holiday like this.
