"We had a reservation downtown for a friend's birthday dinner last Friday but the celebrant suddenly was running late and the original restaurant couldn't accommodate anything past 10 mins from the original reserved time. So off we scrambled to find a restaurant in Resy that can accommodate a group of 10 at 7pm on Friday. I also thought of this place as I've seen the wonderful reviews in the past. So I decided to call and they were able to squeeze us in.We were given a long table and basically had our own little section upon entering. The place wasn't big but just right, with a nice bar and great music. Pretty good vibe. My husband and I weren't drinking but everyone loved the drinks especially the Holy Water. We also kicked it off with the Fritto Mix for 2 which had wings, mozarella sticks, calamari and popcorn shrimp with various sauces on the side. We enjoyed it.For entrées, most of the group ordered the Ribeye and we unanimously agreed it was pretty good as well as the green beans that came with it. My husband ordered the Chicken Parmigiana dish and enjoyed it. We also ordered Spaghetti Bolognese just so we know how good their pastas are and it was delicious.For desserts, we ordered flan, gelato, and the Tortino al Cioccolato with ice cream and this was a hit. The music also became better and better as the evening went by. Service was warm and attentive. Interestingly, unlike other restaurants here that'll automatically charge you 20% or higher for big groups, they actually only charged us 18%, which made it easier for us to decide to add more gratuity of course. We also met Laura, the owner of the restaurant, as she was pretty nice and hands on. Thanks Laura and Team, for making it an enjoyable evening for all of us!"

"pizza and garlic rolls ordered as take-out. we've lived near brunos for years and I've always talked about going there and we've finally ordered their pizza. it was amazing! the teig was clear fresh, and the cheese on the pizza was the best cheese I ever had on a pizza. their toppings were fresh, and I really liked how they used a different kind of sausage than they would see in the rule on a pizza. I really enjoyed the sauce too. the garlic rolls were also really good, and it tasted as if they used fresh garlic instead of a powder garlic I appreciated. the only thing is the teig itself doesn't taste yeast, not necessarily a bad thing, but I enjoy the taste of yeast. this wasn't the best pizza or the best garlic rolls I ever had, but it was better than flippers in my mind. in any case, the pizza will order again as take-out! and now, as I know that the pizza is good, there is reason to hopefully dinate on a day when our small child is there. regarding the personal, because I see a lot complaining about them this is an authentic Italian restaurant, with Italian owners. they were so nice when we caught our pizza, and we had the privilege to see how they interacted with other guests. as american, we like they are not fighting men, but they must keep in the eye, italian are in the really straight forward men, who do not beat around the bush, they are not rude, so try not to take it personally. this is a family restaurant and it was great, can not wait to continue giving them my business in the future!"
