Pizza Bruno has been on the list for a while. Several friends of me and my wife have suggested this place. We were absolutely excited to try Pizza Bruno. It is located inside of a strip mall.. which we came close to passing. No reservations were needed, we just walked up to the host and we waited 10 mins for a table. The restaurant itself is small... had a few tables inside and outdoors. While waiting I noticed the kitchen area. It's completely open, which I loved. Thought it was nice seeing everything being assembled. After 10 mins passed the host walked us to our seats. Once seated menus and waters were given. We actually knew what we wanted to order based off of suggestions from our friends, and looking at the menu online before hand. We told our server we were ready to order. We decided on the following: -Garlic Knots plus sauce ( Too Much Garlic, Pecorino, Chili Flake, Oregano) -Kale Salad ( Golden Rasins, Candied Pecans, Pizza Crumb, Pecorino, Emperors Dressing) *Ordered both to start with* *2 pizzas* -Roni ( Double Pepperoni, Calabrian Chilies, Caciocavallo, Pecorino, Garlic, Oregano) -KBar ( Fresh Mozzarella, Fontina, Italian Sausage, Mushrooms, Double Garlic, Rosemary, Sauce Swirl, Black Pepper) The garlic knots and kale salad didn't take too long to come to the table. Now the knots are without a shred of doubt the BEST garlic knots I have ever had so for in my life. Lol... I feel that's an understatement. The garlic was not too much at all. Loved the chili flakes. The knots themselves were perfect made. Loved the marinara sauce too. You can taste that it was fresh. Like I said the BEST Garlic knots I've had. The Kale salad was tremendous. Great texture from the candied pecans. Loved the pecorino. This is a wonderful salad. I want a jar of the emperor's dressing. The Roni pizza....just outstanding. Every component of this pizza is perfect. The Calabrian chilies makes this pizza complete. Great crust... cooked perfectly. The Kbar pizza... was truly delicious as well. I loved everything on this pizza... the double garlic, the rosemary, Italian sausage, fresh mozzarella and fontina... wonderfully delicious. Awesome crust. The rest of the menu looks pretty delicious as well. *Snacks & Stuff -Meatballs + Lemon Ricotta (Nona's Recipe - Beef & Veal with Fresh Parsley & Garlic) - Cauliflower (Hazelnut Romesco, 'Golden Raisin 'Agrodolce, Basil Mint, Pecorino) *Greens & Garden -Chopped(Organic & Local: Greens + Heirloom Tomatoes, Red Onions, Cukes, Olives, Caciocavallo, Zesty Vinaigrette) -Tomato Salad (Fresh Mozzarella, Tomatoes, Basil, Olive Oil) *Classic* -Marinara (Garlic, Capers, Oregano, Evoo, No Cheese) -Classic Original (Fresh Mozzarella, Caciocavallo, Parmesan, Oregano, Garlic) -Margherita (Basil, Fresh Mozzarella, Parmesan, Evoo, Grana Padano) -Blanca (Lemon Ricotta, Garlic, Rosemary, Mozzarella, Arugula, Grana Padano) *House Specialty* -Crimson Ghost (Fresh Mozzarella, Soppressata, Basil, Mike's Hot Honey) -Ninety Two (Fresh Mozzarella, Italian Sausage, Roasted Red Peppers, Mushrooms, Red Onions, Olives, Oregano, Chili Flakes, Pecorino) -Viva Verde (Kale, Mushrooms, Artichokes, Garlic, Capers, Chili Flakes, White Balsamic Glaze, No Cheese) -The Dude (Black Pepper, Taleggio, Pecorino, Mozzarella, Parmesan) -Tight Socks (Smoked Mozzarella, Parmesan, Pepperoni, Emperors Swirl, Thai Basil ) -The 5-0 (Fresh Mozzarella, Cheddar, Speck Roasted Pineapple Sauce Swirl, Jalapefios, Cilantro, Grana Padano) -Nonnie Knows Best (, Cheddar, Basil, Mozz, Meatballs, Sauce Dollops, Onion, Grana Padano) -The Big Rig (Caciavallo, Soppressata, Pepperoni, Sausage, Jalapeño) -K. Mccallister (Cheddar, Fresh Mozzarella, Caciavallo, Pecorino, Basil) As far as drinks, they have coke products, a great selection of red, white, sparkling wines. Craft beers from Hourglass Brewery, Ravenous Pig Brewing. Ciders, Fruits, and Seltzers All and all.. I love Pizza Bruno. We will 100 percent be returning. Aces!! read more

We tried Pizza Bruno for a second time recently using their delivery option. For this order, we decided to try the kbar pizza and an order of garlic knots. Ordering was easy and the meal came within the given timeframe. The garlic knots alone are worth a visit in my opinion. They are amazing! For a to go order, they pack the sauce separately so you don't end up with soggy rolls. The rolls have a good flavor on their own and are nice and soft, and the garlic sauce is plentiful so you can load up your roll to your heart's content! The kbar pizza is pretty good. I love the fact that Pizza Bruno offers a lot of unique topping options and that the pizza is a different style from what you typically find around town. This pizza wasn't quite a slam dunk for me. There was a slight bitter flavor that I couldn't really pinpoint that took away from the pizza as a whole. It wasn't enough to ruin it, but I didn't love it as much as I thought I would. My boyfriend also noticed it as well. I'd still return again though because I want to try more of their flavor combos and I do feel like they put a lot of love into their recipes overall. read more

OKAY..... I LOVE PIZZA BRUNO. And you will, too. I kept seeing this place pop up on my social media feed where people were raving about them so I had to venture out and see what the fuss is all about. I came here on a weeknight at 7pm, and there was already a line forming out the door. Hoards of people came after me so I would venture out and say that the earlier you come here, the better. Regardless if its a weeknight or weekend - they get busy. And for good reason. Plan accordingly. I was a party of 3 and waited for about 25 minutes. It wasn't terrible. We sat down and first things I noticed was that it was SMALL. Not big at all, very homey and a quaint atmosphere. The music was very loud but not surprised at that. It's a pizzeria! Our waiter was very friendly, and funny; but not attentive at all. I understand that they were really busy and most likely understaffed- but for a party of 3 with a small order, we were left unattended longer than we should have. But it's okay! The experience kept me there. We ordered simple. Garlic rolls and two pies. Margherita & Crimson Ghost. Firstly, the garlic rolls were the best garlic rolls I've ever had in my life. They PILE on the garlic - like so much garlic my mouth had a tinge afterwards. I LOVED IT. Being italian, there is no such thing as too much garlic. It came with a side of sauce and it was just perfection. I can't explain how happy my taste buds were with the overdose of garlic. YUM. GET THE GARLIC ROLLS!!!!! The pizza was another hit. The Crimson ghost had amazing flavor. The Mike's Hot Honey paired perfectly with the soppressata and it popped. My only qualm with the crimson is that it wasn't enough spice. I love a good kick and this was mild, at best. The Margherita was another home run. Just excellent. All in all, absolutely check them out. It was a drive for me, but well worth it, and would come back in a heartbeat. The hype is real. Pizza Bruno is a true gem of Orlando. I hope they open more locations in South Orlando! read more

We had Pizza Bruno cater the surprise birthday party for my husband's 60th. They rolled the stone pizza oven in our driveway and set up an excellent pizza bar with Margherita, Crimson Ghost, and Blanca for our guests. We also had the chopped salad, meatballs, and lemon ricotta. All of our guests raved about the food-it was so fresh, well-prepared, and authentic. Working with Lila and Bruno to plan the event was so easy. They really make such an effort to get all of the details right. Tamra organizes and runs the catering on site; she is another very professional and genuine person,who is so happy to make everything perfect. Their presentation & service was outstanding. From start to finish this was a great catering experience! We will definitely book, again! Thank you, Lila & Bruno read more

If you're looking for a break from the chain restaurants this place is for you! House made pasta, fresh ingredients and phenomenal service that doesn't hurt your wallet.

I was in the area for some business and noticed Pizza Bruno at the corner so after a family member mentioned that the Pizza was delicious I decided to pop in to check the menu. The ambiance was fun and the establishment was packed which told me it has to be good! I ordered the Roasted Beet Salad ( i just love beets) and the Margarita Pizza to go. We re-heated the Pizza at home in the oven for about 5-6 minutes and enjoyed it with the beet salad. Oh my gosh super tasty and delicious. Loved it a lot. Cheese was a bit on the low side so there was more more in areas than cheese covering the slice minus the top crust. Nevertheless the Pizza was very yummy and we will definitely be back and hope to dine im next time :) read more

Pizza Bruno is a deluxe pizza experience. The garlic knots are some of the best I've ever had. The pizza itself is extremely unique, their version of the Hawaiian is my favorite but all that I've had there is good. This is a wonderful place if you want an artisan pizza! read more

It's not an airliner it's just dough tomato sauce and cheese toss it in the oven then wahlah. And this is what we got.!!! See photos!!! Wish I could make it minus stars. Btw paid for extra Italian sausage. Where is it? Oh it guess it got backed up as well I suppose. read more

To start I'm originally from NJ blah blah and pizza in Orlando is blah blah. You know the reviews I'm referencing! So I was very eager to get to Pizza Bruno which I heard was awesome. Guess what? It was AWESOME! We got the plain and The Ghost with soppresata and hot honey. Hot honey on pizza? We were intrigued. OMG, The Ghost was amazing. The sweetness along with the saltiness from the salami along with just a touch of heat. What a great combo. The plain was also great. High quality cheese and a great sauce that's bright without being tart. And for those crust lovers out there, this was the best crust we have ever had. A bit charred, chewy with a bit of crunch, and flavorful! Run to Bruno and get some pizza! read more

Burnt crust on the pizza, garlic rolls under baked and doughy, the sever was nice. It used to be better food. May try again

Came here for lunch the other day and had a wonderful experience! The garlic knots were amazing as well as the pizza! Service was very quick and it wasn't too busy which was nice! read more

I've never had a bad meal at Pizza Bruno- both dining in and to-go. Last night we got to eat on their cute side patio and it was wonderful. Their menu is all so tempting but we ended up with the octopus appetizer and their pizza of the day- Uncle Paulie. What a great choice for both! Their drinks menu has something for everyone too from wine to spirits and a great list of local beers. I had the Negroni spritzer which was so refreshing. The octopus is cooked perfectly and served with seasonal veggies in a cold salad style. Drool. And the pizza crust is so perfectly charred and chewy. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu here. Patrick our server was great- it was his first day and he knocked it out of the park!! read more

One of my fav local pizza spots in town with friendly staff. The vibe is casual and not fussy, you go there for the pizza not atmosphere. My fiancé is a pizza fanatic and he loves it here as well. They love garlic here in the best way! The pizza only comes one size about a 12", there are many sauces and toppings to choose from (average price $15), entrees, appetizers, desserts and beer/ wine. A must try here is the garlic knots... so delicious and super garlicky! Yes, I'm a fan and can't wait to return when this pandemic is over. So local if you can... cheers! Due to the COVID 19, they are offering curbside pick up, and it looks like they are being cautious and following guidelines to protect employees and the community... kudos!! read more

Great service and even better food. The meatball is amazing. Great pizza night place that you must try.

Great pizza, comfortable energy and staff. Highly recommend for a late afternoon bite for some comfort food.

So there are many types of Pizza...the most predominant would be NY Style and Neapolitan style - how it was originally made. Pizza Bruno is of the Neapolitan variety. Pizzas are made in a wood-fired oven. You'll see wood-fired or coal-fired ovens; pizzas made in each are cooked in a matter of 2-3 minutes. That said, Pizza Bruno was so busy, i waited for 45 minutes for my take out order. This place is consistently rated one of the best pizzas in Orlando and it shows. I tried the Margerita and Crimson Ghost pizzas - and because of the long wait time, they felt bad for me and give me some complementary meatballs. The Margerita was very good - i really loved the char on the crust - this is what makes a wood/coal-fired pizza stand out. The Crimson Ghost was very good - i liked the Mikes Hot Honey on it but felt that the sopressata was flavorless - maybe another time, it might be different - but honestly felt that Antica Pizza had a better rendition. Meatballs were very good - being Italian, though, i prefer my Nona's but not everyone can have those. But well worth it! Definitely going back, and back again read more

I am absolutely a fan of Pizza Bruno. We have tried quite a few different pizza places around Orlando now, and while we've definitely found some other good ones, this place blew us away. It is exactly the kind of pizza that we like, with a nice thin crust and cooked perfectly. I for our pizzas we got just a margarita and a blanca. There is only one size pizza but it was actually very filling with the addition of the garlic knots that we started with (which were ginormous). We also took home the crimson ghost pizza for the next day which we loved even more. If you are looking for some good European style pizza, I highly recommend. The staff was very friendly and it was a small space, which made for a nice date night outside on their patio area. read more

This is our favorite restaurant in all of Orlando, hands down. Pizza is a commodity, but finding a local pizzeria that deliberately sources very high quality ingredients to make excellent pizzas and dishes is much harder to find. It's a small business and they take care of their patrons. What may be even better than the pizzas are the garlic knots (made with "too much garlic") - locals know to put in your order as soon as you get to the table. We take all of our friends and family that visit here for a good time, and so we highly recommend! read more

I am very disappointed and would NEVER RECOMMEND ANYONE TO ORDER DELIVERY from this establishment. Me and a group of friends were here on vacation and had seen a Dave Portnoy review about this pizza. As such we were very excited to try it and ordered pizza for delivery after getting back from our day outing. We ordered the pizzas at around 7:45pm through Pizza Bruno's website. We received our pizzas at 9:00pm. I understand the wait except when we received the pizzas they were ICE COLD to the point of being almost stale. I specifically ordered through the company website in the hopes that the service would be good in regard to getting hot or at least warm pizza. Instead our pizzas were hard/cold and there was a big uber Eats sticker on the box. Through the website you also auto tip drivers, so if it's a transport issue the establishment should reevaluate that setup. I tried to call the location's number (Curry) but they did not answer as they may have closed for the day. Overall we ended up ordering from Giordano's and received hot pizza just NOT from Pizza Bruno. (I have tagged a picture of my call log as proof that I did attempt to reach out to the only listed number given when you order via their website). read more

Horrible Go to College Park instead of Curry Ford for to get what you pay for! I ordered 3 pizzas and some knots this is my first time at this location. I always go to College Park where the service and pizza is amazing. I pay extra on all on the pizza for extra cheese and basil and on the cheese pizza I asked for extra cheese. I believe I paid 3.00 + dollars for each pizza to have extra cheese and almost 2.00+ to have extra basil on 2 of the pizza. And obviously they don't know the difference of well done either. I get maybe 4 specs of basil and definitely not enough cheese. I called to complain 30 min prior to closing and no one picks up the phone and I just left so I know it's not busy. I don't understand how this place got 4 stars. If you want Bruno's drive to College park. Your service and pizza will be worth it. It has to be the area because I just don't understand how u charged me almost 13.00 dollars more for extra and I barely get anything extra I paid for. You be the judge look at the photos. And customer service is stupid too, they act like they don't want to service you if you come in at 9:01 but they close at 9:30. Won't ever go here again. It's closer to my house but I will drive if I have to for the better pizza and service. Horrible don't waste your money on this place in Curry Rd. Not sure if it's the same owner but do better at curry rd. They need to answer their phones too! read more

Not everything can live up to the hype unfortunately. Maybe I'm spoiled by some local pizza but this was a mix bag for me. What great the Kale salad amazing . Good but interesting the socks pizza gouda is a strong cheese it worked but didn't wow me. The okay but disappointing was the garlic knots it was the most hyped thing going end failed to even come close to be slightly impressed. As for restaurant I came right when open service was good restaurant it self was bit dirty. So I let this sit based what had as at between 3.5 and 3 but I have to give it 3 based on what they had.

First time on Friday night and left a bit disappointed. Perhaps hearing about the Michelin shout out set my expectations unrealistically high. Place had a cool vibe. Maybe a bit loud for me, but nothing I would mark off for. I tend to like things a bit quieter but realize others like it louder. No biggie. I was really hoping to get something closer to pizza I've had on some on my travels. It wasn't bad, just not my jam. I've had crazy great pizza in Kansas City and this wasn't it. Didn't get a salad but based on what I saw at tables nearby, they looked amazing. Also the payment method was weird. Never saw an itemized bill until after we paid. I probably could have asked for one but I didn't. Just realized that I was charged $24 for the Ninety Two when the menu stated $22. Maybe it's coded wrong in the computer?? read more

Awesome garlic knots with enough garlic to last you for a month! The bread is crisp but chewy and just pure deliciousness! We got the pizza with the kale and added mozzarella so it was basically veggie pizza. The crust was thin enough but got a little thick toward the end. They have a nice variety of pizzas and if you don't eat the garlic knots, then you can eat your own. They have a nice wine and beer menu, as well as alcohol. Will definitely go back when in the mood for pizza! Definitely try it, Pizza is smaller than park pizza which is my fave right now, but comparable! Yummmmmmy! Try it, you will find something you like and will not be disappointed! read more

It was my husband's birthday and he LOVES pizza, so he found this place on Yelp! When we walked in, it was pretty dead. I was relieved because we had a party of 13 total. We walked in a little before 5 PM and didn't realize it was almost happy hour. The restaurant quickly filled! The staff was all friendly and accommodating for our huge party during happy hour. Max was so pleasant and the staff worked together to get our food out efficiently and accurately. I am not a huge pizza fan, but I like it occasionally. I ordered the Octopus and it was big enough to share since we ordered salad for the table, as well. Everything was decently priced and we even had leftovers. We will return for sure! read more

Good pizza, but not "drive across town" pizza. Best enjoyed on premises (fresh pizza doesn't travel well), you can see there is some pizza craft at work here, and there's nothing fresher, but sizes are small and prices high, so my crown in this category goes to Prato. read more

Kind of a hipster atmosphere, but the music was a little loud. Kind of hard to have a conversation. I had the Bianca pizza and tomato salad with fresh mozzarella. And had ricotta with lemon in it, which I wasn't crazy about, but it was still good. I enjoyed the dough too. It wasn't too thick. The tomato mozzarella, fresh basil and balsamic reduction was delicious. And the service was good too. If you're on that side of town, give them a try. Happy Eats! read more

This place is me and my sisters go to for pizza/wings/yummy salads. Their Margherita pizza is literally to die for. Every time you order a pizza, they cook it fresh right there for you. The lemon picatta wings are literally so amazing, and don't get me started on the wedge salad. They use fried pepperoni instead of bacon and it was so delicious. Also, our server Jack was so incredibly nice, funny and recommended so many great things. This is our 3rd or 4th time being there, and every time we have had a new waiter, and every time they have been so nice, helpful, not too pushy, and just so sweet. And the whole time we were eating he played the best music and we felt like we were Remi from Ratatouille trying the cheese and grapes Lol. We absolutely recommend this place 100000000x. read more

Update: The owner contacted me immediately after I reached out and rectified the situation as well as removed the incorrect and outdated "special" from their website. This goes a long with me and I appreciate the desire to make things right. Ordered to go and ordered a "special" advertised on their website for a salad, pizza, and box of house made Italian cookies. Sounded pretty awesome! When I went to pick it up I asked about my cookies and was told it comes with a cannoli?! Well that was a huge disappointment and considering no one called to tell me this ahead of time and of course I prepaid, I was not very happy. They were busy and there were people behind me so I didn't want to make it a big deal, However when I came come and looked at the individual prices of everything it wasn't a special at all, and considering I didn't want a cannoli I could have saved myself $7. I tried to call a few times to talk to a manager the next day to see what their response was but no one ever answered the phone. Unfortunately I have to leave a review in the hopes that no one else decides to buy the "special" because most of their pizzas are less than the one I bought so you wouldn't be getting a good deal at all. Food wise taste was decent. I've been once before but sadly I don't think I will be back again. read more

I was in the neighborhood today, so I could not leave without getting a couple of pizzas from Pizza Bruno to take back home. I knew I had to travel, so I went with a couple of simpler items, the Pepperoni and the Margherita. The Pepperoni had some Calabrian peppers on it, so there was a little heat. I thought the crust was fantastic, and both pies were really delicious! I am looking forward to trying their Clam Pie next time I visit.
