Bruno's Cheesesteaks - Cheesesteaks Near Me - North Aurora, Illinois

The employees here are wonderful and so are the fries. The Cheesesteak had great bread and lots of cheese, but the meat was a little chewy and definitely not seasoned,I only tasted the onion flavor. You should check it out,but a place with Cheesesteak in their name should make an excellent Cheesesteak. read more

Bruno's Cheesesteaks - Cheeseteak and fries $17 - Cheesesteaks Near Me - North Aurora, Illinois

Just wanted to get a small snack while traveling. Stumbled across this little restaurant. In my mind I wanted one thing but ended up getting a delicious sub. Service was great! The food was delicious. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a small restaurant with only a few tables but business was booming.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] In the short time I sat there and ate there were several people who came in and ordered also a lot of people did pick up orders. If I'm ever in the area again I will go back. read more

I really liked the cheesesteak. The original Bruno uses cheese whiz but you can also get it with provolone. The beef was tender chopped up as expected and mixed with onions with little pieces of crust from Maillard reaction. All served on fresh toasted French roll. Fries were decent, thicker cut. Will be back! read more

The Service here at Bruno's is fantastic. I believe it's a father and son operation. Everyone there is so friendly and engaging. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's bright, clean, and has the charm of an old school Tasty Freeze.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] There's usually always a game on the TV and just discovered they're now serving beer; Yuengling, Blue Moon, Revolution Anti-hero, and Miller Lite on tap. Food is outstanding as always. I tried the avocado & Swiss burger this time and was not disappointed. read more

Awesome Cheesetakes ! Just like in Philly ! Bread is amazing and sliced steak is legit !

The people who own and run this place are great. Since I can't find any mom and pop Italian beef places by me I've converted to their Philly Cheese steak. I've NEVER found any grissel in my sandwiches. They ship in the Amorasa buns. Fantastic sandwiches! read more

Bruno's is what I would imagine a real Philly cheese steak to be. They bring the bread in from Philly. It's great, and really stands apart from the traditional Italian or French rolls we Chicagoans use for beef sandwiches. Bruno's offers up Phillys using either the cheez whiz stuff or provolone. Both are good. There's also grilled onions, peppers and mushrooms to choose from. A drink and fries plus sandwich is around $16, which is much cheaper than a trip to Philly! Check this place out if you drive by. Way, way better than those Philly places in the malls. read more

Bruno's Cheesesteaks - Bruno's Original w/peppers added. Good stuff! - Cheesesteaks Near Me - North Aurora, Illinois

The food is actually solid! I mean 4/5 star worthy. It's fresh, hot, and well prepared. I've eaten from here like 5/6xs now. I've never walked in the place, I order online. My babe has done pick up twice. My issue is that they're petty to me! If you add extra veggies, it's a charge. If you try to mix meats, they'll reply bk it's not avail, and do you want to cancel? Lol, they're funny... When my guy ordered light cheese, they added extra cheese! That's really probably why we don't patronize often. read more

Bruno's Cheesesteaks - South Philly, added lettuce - Cheesesteaks Near Me - North Aurora, Illinois

Cheesesteaks, hot dogs, fries, mozzarella sticks are all good. Want to try the rest of the menu but the steaks and hot dogs are too good.

Bought a pan of cheesesteak along with whiz, onions, peppers and mushrooms for the Superbowl. The owner gave me specific instructions on how to warm the food up and how to make the cheesesteaks. My guests raved about the cheesesteaks and I loved them as well. Thank you for everything and so happy the EAGLES won! read more

I only came here once when I was still living in the area but I might have to return. I dined inside and seating is limited. However, the service was great. I was able to try the Delaware cheesesteak and the original a Philly cheesesteak. Both were delicious. They don't skimp on the meat, that's for sure. Everything tasted fresh. Portion size overall is good for the price which isn't too bad. read more

Loved it, the Original was great, tasty ribeye steak seasoned well with grilled onions and cheese sauce was killer.

Found on yelp - I dined in while In the area it did not disappoint. I'll be honest I only tried the cheesesteak sandwich with onions, mushrooms and melted cheese . I did not have fries sadly this trip but next time for sure . The bread was wonderful and definitely was a cheesesteak made well , fresh and hot ! Can't wait to try again read more

Had the Delaware and it was great! Bread was perfect, steak was excellent and veggies at the proper amount of tender. Fries were fresh and hot! Friendly people (father and son) both making sure we enjoyed the experience which we did. Will come again to try the polish! Quaint place and the counter seating reminded me of the place we went to in Philly! read more

The cheesesteak was great!!! Fries great!!! Best cheesesteak I've tasted in a long time!

The cheesesteaks are good. The pizza puffs are good. The ice cream is GOOOOOD I had to lengthen this review with this so it would register

Made to order food. The service is really great and food is great. The fresh made cookies are so yummy!

I firmly believe you can't get a good cheesesteak in Illinois, let alone the suburbs. While the man that greeted me was pleasant, that's where it all ended. I ordered the Delaware, no peppers and it arrived in about 5-7 min, so no complaints there. I get the sandwich home and it looked pretty good, but noticed it was A LOT of bread, I mean almost overwhelming. I heated it and took a bite and the bread was soft, but tough..which was weird. The meat, onions, and mushrooms had absolutely zero seasoning on them, which should be a crime for a $13+ sandwich. [[HIGHLIGHT]]If this is you at your best, than there is a reason I should have left because there was NOBODY in the parking lot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My advice having working in restaurants for 20 years: season the meat and ingredients, get better bread, get better meat and really try the food for yourself because you would hopefully agree with me. read more

Was in the area and looking for a quick bite to eat that wasn't your standard burger joint and stumbled across Bruno's. My wife and I tried the chicken Philly and the south Philly cheesesteaks. Didn't get to eat it fresh as we had time constraints but I was not disappointed when I ate it at home, which was about a 30 min ride. South Philly was full of flavor and had a generous amount of meat and cheese. The chicken Philly was bought to indulge in our "healthy" eating habits for the weekend, and it was decent. Should've just taken the extra hit on our macros and went for a beef cheesesteak instead. Overall, Bruno's hit the spot, I was so hungry when I got home that I forgot to take a picture. Will definitely add the the visit again when I'm in the area category. read more

Delicious sandwich. Freshly cut steak and vegetables. The bread is fresh and delicious! Friendly staff. Highly recommended local food. read more

Bruno's Cheesesteaks - Liberty bell cheesesteak and onion rings - Cheesesteaks Near Me - North Aurora, Illinois

I had to go down to Plano, IL to the DMV and needed lunch on my way down so I was looking for lunch spots around Aurora. This place popped up and looked tasty so I was like why not! I'm so glad I came in! The line was maybe like 10 people deep when I walked in around lunch time but it moved quickly. Since it was my first time here, I just ordered the staple - the original philly cheese steak - and some fries. The people working there are so great and you can tell it's full of regulars, which makes me happy to see. :) they also filled up my water bottle for me! It was kinda pricey - around 17 for the sandwich and fries - but it's a bit portion and oh so good. Note that there's a small % fee added to your bill if you pay with card! There were a variety of seats - some without back support and some with back support - both indoors and outdoors. I'd definitely come back! read more

Food is excellent. Fresh, properly prepared, spot on taste, large portions. Food was what one would hope to find at a specialty diner such as Bruno's. However, as we enjoyed our dinner at the outdoor tables, I have never found better service at a most posh restaurant. Never. Fantastic. Well done, Bruno. read more

Conveniently located on Route 23 just north of I88. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Place was clean and staff was super friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We both had the Phili Cheese Steak Sandwich. Remember to bring cash since they charge a credit card processing fee. read more

The food is amazing, it came out super fast and the owner is super nice. Would recommend to any person that is wondering if they want to go here. read more

What a great place to get a Philly! I was searching Yelp in an unknown area and found good ratings for Bruno's. As usual Yelp reviews are right on the money and I will double down on that! I can only speak for the Chicken Philly and it was excellent! Fresh, tasty, and the perfect roll. Nice menu with some good options including delicious cheese fries and ice cream I wish I could have tried. The service was very friendly too. I've eaten a lot of Philly subs across America, and this place is yet another great one for those of us who seek it out. Enjoy.... read more

Best cheesesteak I have ever had! My son in law was travelling through town, in 2016, and ate at Bruno's. He's been raving about it for years so, when we traveled to Illinois for the holidays this year, we had to check it out. There's a reason he's been dreaming about this place for all of these years! Hands down, just go there! I had the Bruno's original cheesesteak and onion rings. read more

Bruno's has been on my radar to try since Ioved to the area. The reviews from other were always top notch and the menu looked great. Well I finally got to try it last night and I was not disappointed. We ordered the liberty bell, Buffalo chicken, onion rings, and French fries. All which were phenomenal, fresh, and steaming hot. Would return and recommend to others! read more

Amazing food and great customer service!! Ordered online, service was quick! Food of course was delicious, as always!!

Cute little hole in the wall. Delicious, messy, hits the spot. Love how the meat is chopped up and fine. Cheese sauce is a little different but it worked. Chicken was nice and tender. Not a fan of their ranch sauce. Staff is friendly, courteous and helpful. :) read more
