    Thinnest cut of Prime Rib ever! What a RIP OFF

    Come to Bruno's Kitchen if you ENJOY GETTING RIPPED OFF! I've ordered the Prime Rib here 3 times. The first 2 times my serving came with a giant (probably 3 in. x 3 in.) hunk of fat. Sorry I don't have a disgusting picture to share. I complained to the manager asking if she would want to have a piece of prime rib presented to her like that, much less eat it. She said "No" apologized and brought me a bit more. But the 2nd time we went they did it again. So I complained, AGAIN! Manager she told me, you have to specify that you don't want it served with big chunks of fat and they'll trim it (which is bull-shit). So this last time, I did just that and here's what they served me: a $28.00 "12oz" prime rib that is the skinniest piece of meat I've ever seen. Again, I should have taken a photo right away; half the steak was even thinner because they cut it on an angle to paper thin on the end. I shared my experience with the ladies sitting next to me and they said they've had similar experiences. They have to send back food often because it isn't cut or prepared right. Lesson learned, I WILL NEVER GO BACK TO BRUNO'S KITCHEN AGAIN!

    My wife and I stopped by Bruno's Kitchen after a long afternoon of last-minute Christmas shopping, and we were pleasantly surprised. From the moment we walked in, the experience was welcoming. The restaurant was clean, well kept, and had a comfortable vibe--kind of a sports bar feel, but toned down enough to still feel like a proper sit-down restaurant. There are plenty of TVs around if you want to catch a game. The hostess seated us right away and was genuinely friendly, especially after learning it was our first time there. We started with espresso martinis, which were surprisingly good--so good, in fact, that we ended up ordering a second round. Definitely a strong start. For an appetizer, we went with the Gravy Fries. Nothing fancy here--just hot, fresh fries covered in brown gravy--but sometimes simple done right really hits the spot, and these absolutely did. For entrées, my wife ordered the crab cakes with a wedge salad (which she loves), and I went with the Green Chili Burger and fries. Both dishes delivered. My wife really enjoyed the flavor of the crab cakes and was happy to see a solid wedge salad option on the menu. My burger was excellent, and the green chili had a legit kick--which I truly appreciate. There's nothing worse than something being advertised as spicy and then falling completely flat, and that was definitely not the case here. Overall, we had a great time and left happy. While it didn't quite cross into "blow-your-mind" territory, everything was done well, the service was friendly, and the food was solid across the board. We'd absolutely go back and would recommend giving Bruno's Kitchen a try if you're in the Southwest Plaza area.

    Opened about three weeks ago. It's located in a strip mall with tons of parking. We walked in and ordered a burger and a sandwich. My good friend liked his Italian sausage Sandwich and I liked my My mushroom Swiss Burger. Both came with fries. The vibe upon walking in was of a tap room. I was expecting to be met with beer and more beer! They of course have beers on tap. Are you kidding me? This is CO!But this isn't a brewery! The surprise find of the day was the good sized Carrot Cake that we both liked a lot! The icing's not too sweet. The whole carrot cake was a delightful dessert! I did a little research and this is the same owner of 5281 Seafood and Steak not too far away from this location .

    Restaurant is very clean and comfortable with various seating choices: Bar seating, booths, high top tables, low top tables. Bathrooms are very clean as well. Service was very prompt, friendly and efficient. Refills were provided automatically. We were checked on several times. French dip was excellent. My daughter had the hamburger which was very good as well. When in the area we would return.

    Amazing time at Bruno's kitchen. Fresh food and custom drinks made the way you like them. Really friendly staff with little wait.

    If you've been thinking of trying this place, don't hesitate. A great spot with nourishing food and the ambiance is fitting for a bite alone or a social gathering with your loved ones. It was busy and the service was attentive.

    Had the blackened fish tacos which was the special, so tasty and just enough jalapeño slices to make it spicy enough for me. I still had room in the tank for a cup of the sausage and lentil soup, which was amazing! Service is always on point and the ambiance is great. Can't recommend this place enough!

Was not aware they had more than one location so it worked for us since we were close to Littleton and didn't want the hassle of downtown traffic. Great old style restaurant with a full bar offering a "Diner" kind of vibe. Staff was very friendly and helpful offering a good sized menu of comfort food style entrees of Burgers, Sandwiches, some Mexican dishes and salads. Reasonably priced menu items and good sized entrees made our lunch perfect. My apologies for not taking any photos of our entrees but we were talking when the food came and very hungry so we all dug in to the deliciousness. I had the burger of the month which was a 1/2 lb burger with crispy wontons, caramelized onions, bacon, arugula, goat cheese and a balsamic peach vinegar. Some of the other entrees were the pulled pork sandwich and a chile relano burger. The fries were crispy and flavorful as well the onion rings with a light batter and cooked to crispy perfection. A great place to stop for a burger and enjoy the old school charm and comfort. I see why it is a local favorite.. Bravissimo Cherry Cricket

Burgers are dry even though we asked for medium. Adding sauce after sauce to the patty (customization galore) isn't the answer because it makes the sandwich too salty yet not solving the dryness of the meat. But I'm glad they opened up a location in the southwest area so one doesn't have to always go to Cherry Creek.

First bite of the burger was cold, I don't know how that could happen when They just made it. The cheese wasn't even melted. I'm guessing that they pre-cook the burgers and then maybe just heat them back up. It was very dry. The fries were such a big disappointment couple squirts of sour cream and maybe one slice of cheese which I paid over $10 for. I had to interact with the person one more time and again they were just snarky. Everything about the places, uncomfortable from the seats to the employee.

They were pretty bad. I can taste when meat is low quality, and this is it. It's like finding the lowest quality frozen ground beef patties on manager special at Walmart. You're not going to get sick from it, but you're also not going to have the best meal. It just blows my mind that anyone would call these burgers good. Especially when there are plenty of decent burger places in Denver.

I ordered the quesadilla with carne asada and it came with two sides of sour cream, one mild salsa, and one hot salsa. It also came with garnish on the side of lettuce and tomatoes. The quesadilla was very good it had cheese, carne asada, onions, and some other peppers. It was not super spicy but definitely had a lot of flavor in my opinion. The cheese was extremely rich and made for a great quesadilla! The burger was very good, it came with a big side of fries that were very seasoned! The fries had a lot of salt, pepper, and other spices on it. I love salty food and thought it was perfect. But some people might think it was too much so you may want to ask light salt or no seasoning at all. The burger was very good and every bite had great flavor with the smack sauce, pickles, lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, and onion. I enjoyed both items that I ordered and had plenty left over to eat later. It was a little pricey as I paid $28 for the quesadilla and burger but it was reasonably priced for the portion size and quality of the food. I just expect things to be a little cheaper when it comes to food trucks. The service was very good, I had an older Hispanic couple running the truck when I visited and they were very kind, professional, and put love into the food. The ambiance is cool, I mean it is a food truck with no seating. They have some chairs outside but no table. They also sell drinks, the options that I saw were Coke and Pepsi. I would definitely give snack daddy's a try if you are around downtown Littleton and want to support this small business. I will definitely be back to try some more of the menu.
