We used Bruno’s for our wedding catering and it was hands-down one of the best decisions we made. The event coordinator was amazing to work with — communicative, organized, and made the entire process feel effortless. On the day of the wedding, the team truly went above and beyond, delivering the food to us and even helping with setup, which took so much stress off our plate.
Now let’s talk about the food… unreal. Everything was absolutely delicious, and our guests would not stop talking about it all night. The eggplant parm deserves its own shoutout — people were genuinely raving about it and going back for seconds (and thirds). The dessert tray was completely wiped out by the end of the night, which says it all. They also graciously accommodated a gluten-free option, which our guests really appreciated.
Overall, an incredible experience from start to finish. Amazing service, phenomenal food, and true care put into everything they do. I would recommend Bruno’s to anyone looking for catering — especially for a special event. Thank you, Bruno’s, for making our wedding day that much better.

We had a wonderful meal last night. 6 of us, plenty of space, great quality, food and prices. Good drinks. I had the rigatoni Vodka pasta. It was amazing. The waiter was awesome. Amazing food. Definitely, a must try if you’re visiting Portland.

We love Bruno’s. Delicious food – Amazing service – and consistently. My family has been going there for years. We had my husband’s birthday gathering there this evening. I’ve brought all my college roommates to dine here over the years. Not many restaurants in Portland have parking like this establishment does and that’s a huge plus for me. Super friendly. Everything is yummy. 10/10.

Bruno’s has a nice atmosphere and friendly staff, but the food was mediocre and definitely not worth the price. Portions were average, flavors were bland, and nothing really stood out. It feels more like you’re paying for the setting than the meal. If you’re just stopping in for a drink, it’s fine—but for dinner, there are better options nearby for the same or less.

Stopped here while traveling from Bangor Maine to Boston. Read online that the children parmesan was very good. It was and served with fresh pasta. The other dish, bolonase was served with spinach pasta and was tasty. Our server was so nice and talkative. It’s seems to be a family owned neighborhood restaurant.. Not too many out there. We will visit on our next trip.

We have been coming here since I was practically born! It is very consistent and the atmosphere changes with time so it is always refreshing each decade to see what Bobby and Vicky decide to do to the place! Danny has always been great to talk to for any events we have needed from baby showers to bridal showers, the event room has always exceeded out expectations! Thank you all for keeping the family business going! It really shows how much you care!

Bruno’s is the best Italian place around imo. The food is amazing, everyone who works there is nice, and it just has such a nice vibe inside. You can eat in the dining area which is more of an upscale vibe or the regular dining room which is more of a family vibe. I honestly would choose Bruno’s over via vecchia every time. Definitely try it if you haven’t been!

Enjoyable meal in a nice, fairly quiet outdoor area. Lunchtime prices were very affordable. Service was good. Fries were fresh, hot, and crispy. Potato salad was creamy and flavorful. Sandwiches – eggplant and chicken, were both good. We were able to take home half of our sandwiches too. Would go here again any time.

I had a rigatoni with vodka cream cheese and an espresso martini, Loved every second off it. The food was excellent, the portion was smaller then expected but tasted amazing. The waiter was friendly. Would come again next vacation

Sat in side room from the main bar. Had a good salad, beer on tap & had the steak, a very good choice as it’s almost a forgotten food scource. Lol
