I've eaten at this establishment previously and it was a Neutral choice. However, this past time was horrid. I asked for a seat in 'Non-smoking' and all I could smell was cigarette smoke. I got a seat in non-smoking which was a little better-but,the overall smoking smell was pervasive.

When my water came out, there was a slightly dessicated lemon perched on the rim of the glass. Granted, probably not a big deal - but, for the price you are paying at the restaurant - I think small things add up.

Lastly, I had the same meal I've been ordering there for my past few visits. It was terrible. They used dried garlic and herbs, reconstituted them in a very acidic lemon sauce,and smothered the poor broiled red snapper. What I will give them is the fact that the fish wasn't overdone.

They must be in a competition for the Veranda Greek Restaurant (same shopping center) for the lousiest meals in Irving. Based on bar traffic - they would probably help their business model to just become a bar.

The veal sorrenti was delicious and keeps me coming back. I love to eat their homemade tirmusi dessert, and tasty cappaccino pie. Some more of my favorites are the Shrimp or veal parmeson or angel hair with shrimp. Great ever since the first day I tasted it and that was ten ears ago.

My husband and I had our Rehearsal Dinner at Bruno's. Everything was wonderful and turned out perfectly! Bruno's served 40 guests in our party just the way we wanted it. Excellent restaurant!

This restaurant is tucked away in a strip shopping center at the corner of Walnut Hill and MacArthur in Irving.

The fried zucchini appetizer witha red sauce is excellent, as are all the veal and seafood entrees, but my personal favorite is the linguini covered with clams and sauteed mushrooms in a white sauce. The cheesecake desserts are outstanding as well, and there is an extensive wine list, all for reasonable cost.
