Fabulous! Monica was incredible! The restaurant wasn't ready on the dinner side of the restaurant, so we went to the bar for Happy Hour. It was so fun and honestly, highly affordable with great service.

The food was good but not 5 star worthy. The server was new and it was obvious that he did not get the best training by management.

Brunos is one of our regular choices for good & reasonably priced Italian food. I also appreciate the fact that they have a reasonable corkage fee since we commonly bring our own wine. We will be going back again soon.
