Very poor customer service! For a local pizzeria (there are many in the area), you would think that they would want to set themselves apart from the rest by offering excellent customer service. This is not the case with Bruno's. Ex) Upon arriving to pick up our order, I noticed that our exact order ...
The service was awful. The waitress was unfamiliar with the menu so she didn't offer soup/salad with entree. We had to ask. She didn't bring dipping sauce with gyoza (she kept pronouncing it goyza) and you could hear her yelling at the cooks every time she went into the kitchen. The sushi is good, ...
Absolutely wonderful! We were there last night to celebrate Valentine's Day (yes, a day late) for your dinner for 2. Purchased the coupon on Living Social so we could try out something new. It was unbelievable and well worth the drive from Goshen. Both husband and I got the sampler platter and h...
What an outstanding meal! The combo salad was fresh and delicious. The sampler meal gave me fettucine, chicken parmesan and lasagna - they all get five stars! Service was excellent from the greeting at the entrance to the friendly waitstaff. This was my first time dining at Bruno's and I'll defi...
Had Brunch at Tippecanoe restaurant in South Bend this weekend and was very dissapointed in the service and the quality of the food. The Bacon was thin and greasy, not crisp, the scrambled eggs and potatoes looked like they were a day old /cold and the pans were almost empty..The best part was the g...
This is more of a take out restuarant - They should have a menu online. Their quality is very good.
If you get a chance visit The Skillet. They have the best broasted chicken and great fresh bread. The Staff is very friendly. My family enjoys every visit. We have never had bad service.
I'm not saying this is a 5 star restaurant, but for a local family place it's the best around. There food is very good, service is great as is value. Menu is varied without being overpowering. hen we have company they ask us: "can we go to the 19th Hole again?"
I enjoy Jovi's because Lori the bartender makes me a great drink, and always makes me feel happy and alive when i leave. Plus i also enjoy lori's sister sheila who i am just head over heel's about.Maybe the day will come when she and her family except me for who i am and what my intentions really ar...

Someone brought one of their pizzas in for a group of co-workers and I swear it's the best vegetarian pizza I've ever had. Will definitely be going there soon!
I took my wife for her first visit and she loved it. The chicken pâté with pickles and toast that was on the table when we arrived was excellent. The chef salad with roasted pear, blue cheese crumbles and blueberry honey was the best I have ever had in my life. I could taste all the individual ing...
ABSOLUTELY THE BEST IN TOWN. FABULOUS SELECTION, GREAT ATTENTION TO DETAIL AND FLAVORFUL, FRESH SELECTIONS.
I have Celiac disease. We made reservations for 8 at 8:00 and were not seated until after 9:00.When we made reservations we were assured they cuod make most items on their menu gluten free even the pasta. When seated we were immediatlly told the kitchen was busy and there was no way they could make ...
I love this place! Food portions are manageable and not each individual serving the size of "feeding a family of 4". The food is fresh, pasta is fresh and the staff does an incredible job serving MANY after a Notre Dame Game !!!! The staff is hard working and pleasant ALWAYS even under this pressur...
It proximity to my hotel and attractive exterior pulled me in for dinner; the service while not overly attentive was adequate but I waited quite a while - perhaps 10 to 15 minutes between salad and entree without anyone noticing. When I recieved my Chicken Vesuvius, it was, sadly, fried hard on the...

I simply called to ask if they allowed dogs in their outdoor seating area and was told in a very 'cool' tone that it's not allowed in that county. Which is not true. There is no food or health regulations for outdoor seating. From now on just say no in a polite and courteous manner without trying...
Food is great, lots of different rolls, specialty rolls(Notre Dame roll, IUSB rolls) Great place to eat take sushi lovers on a date.
My boyfriend and I love the Logans on Ireland. We live near Town and Country so that means the Logans on Main is closer but the food is Terrible there. Every time we go to the one on main we hate it . Go to the Logans on Ireland ITs worth the drive.
Bruno's is the bomb! Best pizza I have ever eaten and I am Italian!!! Love the atmosphere...remodeling underway for restrooms. Great service...always with a smile! And Barnaby's won best pizza in South Bend? You have got to be joking!!! Bruno's is a South Bend tradition owned by a wonderful local fa...
This is just a small place with a few tables if you choose to eat there. I am sure majority of their business is takeout. The food is fantastic!! They service is fast and the quality incredible.
