    12" 3 Meat Pizza
    Bianca S.

    Celebrated pi day at the bar at Coal Fire. We went at 9pm for their reverse happy hour. You can't beat half off pizza! The 3 meat pizza was good. They always have the perfect crust. Friendly service and chill vibes.

    Phone did not eat first here. The pizza here is truly the best. The tomato sauce is sweet and the dough is crispy and chewy. We also got salads which are always fresh. Service is perfect for a pizza place and prices are extremely fair!

    Huge serving of French fries and a delicious basket of onion rings (highly recommended)! The sauce that you see was delicious.

    I had dinner with a good friend just yesterday evening at Coal Fire. When we initially arrived, there weren't many people there, but after a while, it was a packed house! The ambience was chill and comfortable and our waitress was nice. The food, however was kinda sorta subpar, besides one particular stand out item. Now, I won't say don't give this place a try, I really think it's worth a chance and I'd even give it a second shot! I'll start with my meal. I ordered the mozzarella sticks, Caesar salad and meatballs with no cheese. The mozzarella sticks are large and were pretty good. Nothing to write home about, but decent nonetheless. The salad was fresh, and simple- just like you'd imagine a simple Caesar salad would be. The meatballs were a bit disappointing, unfortunately. Now the meat itself was fresh and homemade, I could definitely tell. But there was a serious lack of seasoning and without the mountain of mozzarella cheese, it just wasn't worth the price point. Now this was my first time here and I did see a couple of items that I still wanted to try, which is why I'd be willing to come back. My friend ordered a margarita and said that it was very lime-y/strong, but still drinkable (ie, not terrible). She ordered a pizza with onions, pepperoni and sausage (this place makes thin crust pizza only, so be mindful of the number of toppings you add- it could make the pizza a bit soggy). It came out very delicious looking, but my friend did mention that it could've been baked a minute or two longer. She also ordered French fries. The order of fries were HUGE- you can definitely share them with your party. The star of the WHOLE MEAL for me was the onion rings!!! I was not expecting them to be that delicious, but they were! They were lightly battered and seasoned very well. The dipping sauce that came with them uwas sooooo good. Garlicky and just delightful. You could put the dip on a burger or dip your fries in it! I honestly would come back for the onion rings alone! We didn't have dessert, but they do offer cannolis. As I mentioned, they deserve a shot, and I'd come back. It's not a five star restaurant, but it's a pretty decent establishment that is obviously popular with the locals. Try'em out!

    Side Caesar Salad
    Samantha H.

    Food was great and orange crush was on point, we had a few! We loved the sauce on the pizza and meatballs. Only complaint and keeping from a 4 star review is the kitchen was a little slow for our liking. It was a Saturday night around prime dinner time and looked to be a lot of carry out orders. Definitely a good spot to check out!

    Food is always good at Coal Fire. I've usually gone in the Columbia location but we stopped by at this location on our way back to MD and had mixed feelings about the service. Again as noted, the food was delicious. Pizzas are one of the best around here and their spicy sauce is above any other sauce I've tested other than homemade. However, their service could be improved. The server was fine to come and take order from us really quickly and the food was out on our table soon as well. However, when we were done, I had to go inside to ask someone to get our check and even then they told me they couldn't help me, only the server could. The whole process took 20 min after asking for the check. There were some other minor issues as well throughout the service.

    No fries

    They gave me a gift card for my last review so I used it to get a quick cheesesteak to go and they forgot the fries. Had to wait several minutes for them and they come out dry bland. And one more thing. I get its a restaurant so the prices are higher, but $15 for something not restaurant quality and such tiny portions is just so upsetting. Dont really know what to say anymore about this place. I gave 3 stars bc the cheesesteak tasted decent and the service was friendly again where i almost feel bad about giving something lower

    Homemade Onion Rings

    I ordered the small cauliflower pizza with extra cheese, olives and mushroom and an order of the onion rings. Well, not good! The extra cheese wasn't extra and if I didn't get the extra cheese I would hate to see what regular cheese look like. The pizza crust was over cooked. The onion rings were oily and soggy! I had to put them in the air fryer to make them edible. To top it off it cost me $26 + $2 tip. I won't be back.

    Wedge salad
    Tyler C.

    The food was good. Small space. Restaurant and bar. All staff was masked. Alcohol hand wash in front. Excellent service. The wedge salad had lots of bacon that tasted honey soaked. Lots of onions and tomatoes. No bread or extras. You get what you order. But food was plenty for a meal.

We ordered two 16" pizzas--the Parmigiana Chicken and the Napoli--plus 14 wings. The wings were laughably small and wildly overpriced, but that doesn't even scratch the surface of how bad this experience was. I was excited to try this place. The reviews were glowing, the photos looked incredible, and we chose Bruno's specifically to celebrate New Year's Eve with my partner. What a mistake. Both pizzas were completely ruined. Burnt, tough, dry, and utterly flavorless. They looked nothing like the pictures in the reviews--almost no sauce, overcooked to the point of being inedible, and closer to stale cheesy cardboard than pizza. If this is "authentic," then authenticity has a serious problem. For a moment, we genuinely wondered if we had been given someone else's order or sent food from the wrong restaurant. But no--this was Bruno's. The same Bruno's people are apparently losing their minds over. What's most insulting is that someone saw these pizzas, knew they were overcooked, and sent them out anyway. Charging full price for food this bad feels deceptive at best. When you compare what we received to the photos other reviewers have posted, it honestly feels like a bait-and-switch. Never again. I'll happily drive to Pasta Mista in Towson from now on--the only place around here that seems to understand what pizza is actually supposed to be.

It's always good service, but this was out of this world.

We met friends for dinner on a Saturday evening. First, we like BYOB with no corkage fee. They were very busy, so we were glad that we came a little early so that we only had to wait a few minutes to secure a booth. My husband and I split a Prosciutto & Mozzarella Classic 10 inch N.Y. Sub, which was loaded with thinly sliced Italian prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, Roma tomatoes, fresh basil, extra virgin olive oil, mayo spread, and a drizzle of balsamic with a side order of French fries. This is truly a sub full of flavor. Our friend started off with an Arancino. If you are wondering what an Arancino is, it is an iconic Sicilian rice ball, typically stuffed, breaded, and deep-fried to a golden crisp that has been around since the 10th century. Here at Tony's, they are a flash fried rice ball, stuffed with ground beef, peas and mozzarella with tomato sauce on the side. He also had a Stromboli (a pizza dough stuffed and rolled with pepperoni, sausage, ham, fried onions, green peppers, pizza sauce and mozzarella cheese.) His wife enjoyed the Eggplant Parmesan (three pan-fried Italian eggplant pieces covered with tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, baked to perfection, served with spaghetti.) Both dishes were generous in size. We all thoroughly enjoyed being transported to Italy this evening.

I stumbled upon Tony's randomly. I never knew this place existed however I'm glad I found it! They were due to close when we arrived however their friendly and welcoming staff took care of us and we got slices of pizza. The restaurant is clean and well kept. There are options to dine in or take out and they have outdoor tables available for warmer months. Now the pizza!!! Honeyyyyy The pizza was made to perfection 20/20!!!!! It was so good! Getting a true NYC slice you want to make sure it's left in the oven a little longer to ensure crispy edges and crust. Some may not notice or even care but sauce matters!!! Tony's sauce on this pizza was great. I snagged a menu and definitely plan to return to try some other items. I've got my eye on that cheesesteak and the chicken parm sub!

The ambiance is beautiful and the restaurant is clean, but the experience went downhill quickly. It started with the service: the waitress backing up our table literally pulled the menus out of our hands so fast we couldn't even tell which pasta came with our dishes. We had to stop her to ask, and because we were rushed, we ended up with angel hair instead of the penne we wanted. For appetizers, the dip was delicious, but the Dynamite Shrimp felt like a cheap knockoff of a well-known chain's version. For dinner, I had the Veal Parmigiana. The veal itself was cooked well and had great flavor, but the sauce was... weird. I couldn't put my finger on what was different about it, but it wasn't my favorite. My wife ordered the Chicken Parmigiana, which was a total disaster--dry, flavorless, and inedible. I actually ended up giving her some of my veal just so she had something decent to eat. The ending was the most off-putting part. After we sent the chicken back, the waiter told us the manager wanted to "offer us dessert" for the trouble. We chose two to-go (heading to Magooby's Joke House), but when the bill came, the desserts were charged! When I asked why, the waiter said, "My manager said to remove the chicken parm cost, he didn't say to remove the dessert." Why "offer" something if you expect payment? It felt deceptive. He eventually removed the charge but didn't say a word when he dropped the receipt, and the manager never came over. Between the rushing, the weird sauce, and the awkward service, we won't be back.
