Simple sit down/take out type restaurant. Pizza is very good and cooked to perfection. They have various specials and slice deals. This location is very busy specifically take out. There still is plenty of sit down customers as well. They carry bottles beer and bottled wine in single serving sizes. Recommended for anyone wanting good pizza. read more

Boy this is a tough review... for food alone, this was a 5 star or more . I love Bruno's and have eaten their pizzas for more than 30 years. Sad to hear the original location closed, but the food at the downtown shop was fantastic! Prices are great too. That said, I won't come back to dine in. On two separate occasions homeless people came into the restaurant and accosted customers to buy them food. Not the experience I'm looking for. Maybe I'll get to-go from a different place. read more

Online order for pickup. The guys were friendly and the pizza was as expected. Incredible

We were looking for something fast. We got the pizza by slice. It was good other than the crust being a bit hard. The service was friendly and the dining area was clean. read more

Having reviewed many a pizza joints, I had to add a South Bend pizza review. Since we stayed at the Courtyard about 1 block away we ordered a few pizzas since we had a pretty decent sized party and the restaurant looked quite small. Figured 1 block away it wouldn't take long, however we were wrong on that. This place is either super busy on a Saturday night, or super slow. I'd say they are quite busy on Saturdays. Once the pizza finally arrived I couldn't wait to try one of each we had ordered. The cheese pizza was somewhat greasy from the cheese. Pizza was exceptionally sweet. If you like sweet pizza sauce this is your place. Sweetest I've ever had. Pizza Undercarriage was done well however there wasn't any snap or crisp to it at all. Now on to the stuffed pizza. Same sweetness from the cheese pizza. Again, has to be that sauce which is a dark red sauce, good tomato flavor, just very sweet. Cheese was again slightly greasy. This stuffed pizza also has no real snap, just a chewiness. One slice of this stuffed pizza and you are filled up. Very, very filling. I actually preferred the stuffed pizza to the regular cheese pizza. All in all, pretty slow to get the food 1 block away, very sweet sauce, definitely distinguishable. While I am not a big fan of sweet sauce, I had to rate accordingly. read more

Holy crap this pizza sucks. I got a combo #1 which was 2 slices with a fountain drink. They were out of pepperoni, so I got pepperoni and sausage. When it came out of the oven I could tell I had made a mistake. It looked like gas station pizza sitting under a hot lamp for an hour. I took 2 bites, threw it out and left. read more

I like this location. It seems that they had a total worker change. Before they always knew your name that I found impressive. It's still good food and I'll keep going there. Just doesn't seem as friendly to me but I'm an old drunk. read more

Discovered this place looking on yelp while working out of town went in. The food was great. The prices were wonderful. Definitely check it out if you're in the area. read more

12" pizza. Three toppings. $19 with tax. Not as good as DiGiorno. Made me miss my pizza stone at home. read more

Stellar pizza! I was served my slice quickly. It was an hour before it closed so there wasn't a line. I had a slice of pepperoni and sausage pizza and was not disappointed. Seems like college pizza parlor vibe. And the food is spectacular. Hit the spot. Definitely going back. read more

I really appreciate the 2 slice pizza special with a drink. I like pizza, but I do not want a whole pizza for myself. Very cheesy and plenty of toppings. read more

There was a stringy hair in my slice - OMG - if I could've went back in time for 6 min I could've avoided it

We live near at least three big chain pizza places, but I'm happy to make the drive to get Bruno's, because when I bring it home, everybody's happy! Some people seem to complain about the sauce, but they're way wrong! Bruno's has the best sauce, toppings, and sides, and even when I mention the name, everybody lights up. The big chains are okay, in a pinch, but there's only one Bruno's. We'll literally go the extra mile for it! read more

Stopped in here to grab a quick bite to eat. Easy parking not hard to find and fast service, didn't have to wait for a seat. The cheese on the pizza is so good, price wasn't bad either overall happy with the quick pizza for the night. Place is not that big but huge windows to see outside not to mention they had sports on tv :) read more

Same great taste that I remember from the original location on SR 23. Glad that I am still able to enjoy this pizza in South Bend!

Probably the best pizza I've ever had!!!!! Seriously. Husband said the same thing. Amazing....no other way to describe it. read more

Pizza was gigantic and more importantly, fantastic! The ingredients are plentiful. They don't skimp on anything! I ordered online and it was ready on time and everything was exactly what i ordered. Friendly service to top it off. read more

Pizza is my favorite. Great crust. Not to thick/thin. Employees were nice and professional. I would definitely recommend this business and pizza! read more

By far the best of all the brunos. Top 3 pizza places in town. Cant pick a first cause the 3 all offer a great pie. Love this place.

I went to Bruno's Pizza for lunch, it was great pizza especially enjoy when they have the chicken bacon ranch slices. Italian sandwich is also delicious. read more

What's not to love, its Brunos! The staff is friendly and quick. Great lunch specials. Clean and you can see the food being prepped and made. I recently left working downtown and miss my weekday slice. Keep up the great work! read more

Ordered the Italian salad and a combination pizza thin crust. Would be nice if the toppings on both the salad and pizza were cut smaller. The salami is sandwich sized, onions are strips, bell peppers are strips. Kinda annoying to eat and drag out a 3-4" pepper or onion. read more

We ordered delivery of this Bruno's Pizza to our nearby hotel. Our pizza was delivered (by Grub Hub) in about 35 minutes. We loved the cheese pizza and the garlic bread with cheese. read more

I dined at Bruno's for the first time on a weeknight around 530. Service was fast, the prices appropriate. The pizza was sold by the slice, and even though it was not made to order, it tasted fresh. Their pizza has a nice flavor, much different from typical fast food pizza. Update* I visited SBend on business recently and had Bruno's delivered via Grub Hub. I was tentative about using a 3rd party service, but the pizza was delivered quickly. My order was accurate and reasonably priced. I love the flavor of Bruno's sauce and all ingredients. The thin crust wasn't very thin, but it was very good. The edges had a nice char that made it just so much better! I'm a fan! read more

Staff weren't wearing masks while making and serving food despite Covid regulations. Pizza was doughy and not worth the price. I hope Bruno is well rewarded for his Costco membership because he clearly sources his pizza from there. At least the soda was refreshing. read more

My test for pizza places these days is the quality of their gluten free crust. Bruno's didn't disappoint!

I don't live in South bend but I ordered 2 pizzas and salad for my mom and stepfather. They were so happy eating them. They said that everything was delicious. The best choice. Thank you. read more

I have been to four different Bruno's Pizza. My usual was closed so I gave this a try. I am SO happy i did! This is hands down one of the best pizzas I have ever had - that is saying a lot since i am 62 and pizza is my favorite food. Ordering was easy. Parking outside the restaurant was no problem. Got this pizza home and it was still steaming hot. I had a sausage pizza. The sausage is an excellent blend and very flavorful. Perfect amount of sauce. Crispy crust on the thicker side. Hubby had ham onion and green pepper and it was cooked to perfection. Inside was spotless. Staff was quick to ring me up and got out within minutes. Needless to say, this will be my regular pizza place. Highly recommend. This coming from a regular Bruno's customer who tried this location for the first time. read more

I drove a long way to eat this pizza. That's not their fault though! Everything about the actual pizza was good; the cheese, sausage and pepperoni tasted amazing. The sauce is thicker and rich, but good. I ordered their 2 slice and drink deal for 7 bucks, which is pretty good, although they didn't have anything other than sausage and pepperoni pies. These pizzas were stored in a warmer and were absolutely overcooked (you could really tell on the crust of the pizza as it was crunchy rather than doughy). I threw out the crust, but the body of the pizza was very good. I'd go again but I'd order a fresh pizza made for me. read more

Don't order pizza from here. They have no clue how to make pizza. Poor quality. They seem to lack knowledge of pizza. They can't cook a crust other then soggy. Sausage is sub standard and fatty. If you can do a crust properly don't make pizza. I live down the street and want it to be good but it might be the worst pizza I've had. I'd eat frozen first. read more

You want pizza? They got pizza. But that's it. Service is not good and it took an hour to get our pizza. No human should wait an hour for pizza. Just another review from your friendly neighborhood pizzaman. read more

Serious the worst pizza I've ever had. It was not cooked properly, the cheese was still unmelted in area. I love pizza and had really never had a pizza I disliked until this one so much I had 1/2 a piece and went hungry instead of eating this garbage. Poor South Bend and it's pizza choices. read more

The BEST pizza in Indiana! My husband and I drive 2.5 hrs once every six months just for their Chicago Deep Dish! The sauce is so sweet and delicious and the crazy amount of cheese is to die for. Their crust is a thinner Chicago style so you don't get full off only crust. We LOVE this pizza and wish it was closer to Fort Wayne! (Hint hint) read more

We get Bruno's whenever we're in town. Always good! Really good toppings and lots of cheese. read more

Just called and ordered pizza to be cut party cut (square) style. Paid $30 for the pizza. It shows up cut traditionally. This is the second time this has happened. We call in and tell the manager. He tells us it's not his job to recite guidelines. Tells us party cut is not guaranteed. Apparently this Bruno's just doesn't care about what their customers want. Won't be going back. read more

Only ones open on New Year's day! Great margherita pizza-fresh ingredients, delicious dough. Friendly service.

Decent pizza, $8 for two large slices plus a bottle of pop.Friendly service for a carry out place. Tables were blocked off so we had to eat in the car. Good sausage, sauce and crust read more

I like Bruno's Pizza and how homemade it tastes. It's genuinely good and most people that I've had try it, love it! They take about 45 min average and the pizza is a variety of sizes. It's easy to get one that works for your event so none gets wasted. read more
