Bruno's Ristorante

I will never stop coming here... again and again this restaurant and Bruno himself NEVER disappoint!!!! I enjoyed the Pollo Limonese (Lemon Chicken) this time and it was delicious, perfectly lemony!!! It came with Italian wedding soup (or a salad if you want) and a side of noodles with the house red sauce!! My friends both enjoyed the Gamberi Con Aglio Olio E Pepperoni, which is shrimp sautéed in garlic and olive oil with roasted red peppers over home-made pasta!!It was delicious... so why not add some dessert!!!! We all shared the cannolis, limoncello cake, & pistachio cake.... NONE of it was bad!!!You cannot go wrong with anything on this menu!!!! This is the best Italian food around!!!

This is a well known spot for the locals!! Please make a reservation or you'll be out in the cold like I was w/ my party of 6. Please be aware that this place is intimately small. Not ideal for large parties unless you come early or rent out the establishment.The staff was very accommodating to our party. We enjoyed the Gnocchi, Pettini, Cleveland's Best Lasagna, Chicken Alfredo, Broccoli Agilo e Olio (broccoli over noodles, garlic and oil) and Chicken Parmesan. Everyone said the food was fresh- we noticed that the pasta DID NOT MAKE US FEEL HEAVY. Which is hands down a 10/10!!!

Wow, one of the best meals I've had in quite some time. My wife and I had been here several years before with friends from the area, and tonight reminded us just how good it was the first time. We were part of a large party, yet the wait staff always seemed ready to take care of us. Despite the fact there were numerous of the tables to wait on, no one was waiting forservice. The food was, in short, outstanding. My wife had the seasonal clambake special, which included a dozen steamed clams, an entire Cornish Hen (her choice), salad, vegetable, and dessert. I had the Veal Parmigiana with pasta. a salad and tiramisu for dessert. Outstanding.This is a small, corner restaurant that just oozes old school family dining. You absolutely cannot go wrong with Bruno's. .

This little restaurant is absolutely amazing!! Everything is homemade & delicious. I loved everything about this place, the bread & garlic butter, the soup/salad, meatballs, veal capris, the lasagna was the best I've ever had hands down & the tiramisu also best I ever had! I visited with my two best friends and we all shared our meals so we could all try a little bit of everything! We will definitely be going back, I highly recommend this spot you will not be disappointed! Service was also wonderful, very helpful & tentative staff all around. Because it is physically a smaller restaurant I would recommend making reservations.

The food is really good. The quantity is amazing. The ambiance is decent but can be improved, there's not a lot of space and can feel congested. The service is good too.

Stopped in on a Saturday evening and we were lucky enough to snag two seats at the bar. We received excellent service from the entire staff, everyone was very engaging and helpful. Right away we were served warm Italian bread with garlic butter, all of which I ate in approximately two minutes because it was so good. We ordered the stuffed banana peppers for an appetizer. Wow- were they amazing. The banana peppers themselves were stuffed with Italian sausage, cooked perfectly. Accompanying the banana peppers were bell peppers and onions that were sauteed with olive oil and plenty of garlic aka "Italian gold"!!! I'd highly recommend this starter although all of their options looked great. For entrees, we ordered the lasagna, voted best in Cleveland year after year, and the gnocchi in a blush sauce with two meatballs. I had previously awarded Borgata with the "best lasagna" honor, but I have to agree with the city of Cleveland on this one. Words cannot describe how freaking good this lasagna was. The gnocchi with meatballs was also great. I love a good tomato cream sauce, and the gnocchi were cooked perfectly. I am a self-proclaimed "meatball snob" and I thoroughly enjoyed these, however would have preferred them served in a sauce. The star of the show was the lasagna, but I'd highly recommend both entrees. The portions are huge so there was definitely enough left over for at least two more meals. We were so full that we passed on dessert, but I definitely want to come back. Spectacular first visit!!!

The food was great. I ordered pick up, there were large portions and everything tasted homemade. I will order again if I find myself back in Cleveland

Bruno's is a regular place our dinner club goes to.. Five couple went on a Thursday night. I had the chicken parm. It has never disappointed me. I looked around the table at the diverse dinner selection and the presentations were fantastic. Everyone enjoyed their meals.Bruno's is the place!

Husband was craving Italian so we decided to try some place new and Bruno's came up! I know 'we don't talk about Bruno'.. just kidding!!! ;-)It was busy for a Sunday evening actually super busy took us a while to get tables but we did and I'm glad he chose Bruno's. It's a small place with old school decor but the efficiency with which they manage is truly commendable! We had parties of 12+ to parties of 2 managed perfectly with no fault to service. The bread and butter (served complimentary) were truly setting the mood for some amazing dishes to follow. The food was not just excellent but the portion sizes are huge - be ready for leftovers and if you're not a fan of leftovers then please share a main! We ordered a calamari to start with and unaware of the portion size ordered a chicken parmigiana and chicken Alfredo. The server was kind enough to accommodate my request for spaghetti aglio e olio instead of the regular marinara spaghetti that acoompanies the parmigiana. I honestly didn't know Aglio e olio could taste so damn good!! I've had it before at other places but Bruno's tops the list. Overall love the food, highly recommend and will be visiting again atleast for Aglio e Olio!

I had heard great things about this place and unfortunately, it was not a favorite for anyone in our party of 5. Our server was very nice. The space was a little cramped and we were asked to move our table even closer to the corner so another table could be seated. We shared 2 appetizers, calamari & artichokes. We were looking forward to lightly battered rings & tentacles, but they looked more like curly fries, very rubbery & chewy. The artichokes were pretty heavily breaded and very well done. Not what we were expecting. 2 ordered chicken parm & it also was very overdone, borderline burnt. The Alfredo was served with linguine and was very liquidy. The presentation was just very pale pasta on a white dish. Even a sprinkle of parsley would have made a difference! The scallop pasta was underwhelming as the scallops just appeared to have come in frozen. The pasta had a ton of garlic and was just too much. Sadly, we will not return.
