    Food was excellent. Service was great. It was crowded so a little loud inside the restaurant. Overall, my family and I had a pleasant experience.

    As always, we were not disappointed in our Sunday night out. The food was delicious, but the service was superior. We highly recommend Brunos for a great date night.
