Pizza
James W.

I'm a New York culinary professional that's been in the culinary business for over 20 years. I knew when I opened the box it was hometown goodness. Crispy thin crust goodness just the way it's supposed to be.

A disappointing, dry, tasteless pizza from Bruno's North.

. I lived in Chicago for 10 years, I've had GOOD pizza. When I saw this particular Bruno's had new owners I was hopeful that there might be a GOOD pizza joint on the North Side of South Bend. I was wrong. Just on a whim I pulled in here and ordered a plain cheese pizza. My theory is if a place can make a GOOD cheese pizza then all of their other pizzas should be GOOD! I got a 12" pie for $13.91- a little pricey for a plain cheese pizza, but IF it's REALLY good then it might be worth it. I was in here at 9:15 on a Tuesday night and no one else was in the restaurant. While I was waiting for my pie to bake they received one phone order in about 20 minutes- they were not busy. I told the new owners how I had been in here about 9 months ago and the pizza was not very good and he promised me this was going to be a GOOD pizza! The 2 people working here continued to talk-up their pizza as I waited. I got home and snapped a photo first thing. I took a bite and immediately knew this was going to be disappointing. The pizza had almost NO sauce on it! (I took a photo!) The sauce is the flavor! Everything else is just greasy cheese and dry crust! I picked around the pie, thinking maybe the sauce was just uneven and I happened to get a "dry" slice. There was almost no sauce on most of the pizza. I could see a little red along the edge of the crust, but most of the pizza was dry, flavorless, worthless. I threw over half the pizza (and my money!) away. (see photos)

Delicious pizza!  And this was the regular crust!

A very pleasant surprise! Homemade vinegarette salad dressing was wonderful! Combination pizza was delicious and beautiful! Lots and lots of cheese!

We were looking for a great pizza place while on a weekend getaway and we found one! Upon walking…read moreinto the restaurant, it gave you a warm feeling as you were welcomed immediately and guided to your table. The smell of Italian food made us even hungrier. We started with drinks and my friends and husband were down right giddy to learn you could order a 40 ounce Bud Light bottle. We ordered the cheesy garlic bread as an appetizer. It came with two different marinara sauces, plain and with sausage. They were delightful. We ordered two pizzas: one with sausage, pepperoni, and mushroom; the other had green olives, onion and green pepper. The sauce was not acidy, none of us got heartburn as we sometimes do depending on the sauce. The sauce had a sweet taste. The owners were great and kind, talked with customers including us. It's a great place to stop if you want great pizza and a great atmosphere. They even have a jukebox!

Ahh I love the thought of supporting family owned businesses. A quick google search lead me here…read moreafter attending a WNBA preseason game at Notre Dame. It seems to be a staple within the community, so I suggest you support. Super friendly and welcoming staff. They are known for their pizza, so we gave it a try. I really wanted to like the pizza, but to me the sauce lacked flavor. Maybe salt, herbs, garlic, onion something may have made it taste somewhat better. I added Parmesan cheese, red pepper flakes, and a sprinkle of salt so that the pizza wouldn't go to waste. I didn't want to send it back, so I figured I could spice it up on my own. Overall it was a great experience and atmosphere. I would be willing to give it another try and choose another crowd favorite. The menu had quite a few options, so no need to limit yourself. If only I had room for dessert. I did take my pizza to go and became a late night munch at the hotel.

Stopped by Holy Smokes Pizza while we were in South Bend and I'm so glad we did…read more We ordered a Chicago dog, onion rings, jojos, and a pepperoni/salami sub and everything was delicious. The food tasted homemade in the best way and the onion rings and jojos were also great. The owner was one of the nicest people we've met in a long time. You can tell he genuinely cares about the place and the people who walk through the door. The restaurant has so much character and nostalgia to it. Between the vintage milkshake machine and the old-school neighborhood feel, it's the kind of local spot that's becoming harder to find. It's also only a few minutes from the airport, making it an easy stop if you're passing through South Bend. We'll definitely be back next time we're in town.

So glad that we stopped in! In a hunt for dinner while visiting South Bend for a tournament, we…read morecame across Holy Smokes and a review that called the food five stars. The food? Five stars. The service? Far and beyond. Jerry was the very best... making recommendations, sharing more on the history of the establishment (including a historic ice cream machine), and cooking a delicious meal. The place is cute and unassuming- it almost felt like sitting in someone's living room which further added to its charm. Jerry shared that they decorate for every holiday too which must be fun! We would certainly return to try the sandwiches and milkshakes the next time we are in South Bend! :)
