    We reserved a table for our anniversary, which we noted in the reservation. Our anniversary was never acknowledged. The waitress corrected our Italian pronunciation multiple times, which I found to be incredibly condescending. Despite the restaurant being quite empty, it took a substantial amount of time to receive each course of food. We even waited 20 minutes for our bill to arrive.

    Sherry was our server and tour guide through the drink and dinner menu. She was outstanding, taking care of us on our first visit.

    Their authentic menu sets the stage for a wonderful Italian meal in the heart of downtown Springfield. We were eager to try this place after reading such glowing reviews, and we left exceptionally satisfied. As soon as we sat down, we were served focaccia with a blend of Italian olive oil and balsamic vinegar. We ordered two glasses of wine: a Chianti and a Chiarlo Barbera d’Asti. Since we wanted to try both the pasta and the pizza, we decided to share a margherita pizza as an appetizer. The pizza was amazing, with the perfect balance of dough and sauce. Their brick oven allows the pizza to be cooked authentically, as if we were in Italy, and adds an extra touch to the ambiance. With the pizza being so good, we expected no less of the pasta. My husband ordered the fettuccine alla Bolognese, and the ragù was so flavorful that he scooped up every bit and cleaned his plate with the last piece of focaccia! I ordered the daily special—penne with a white sauce (not Alfredo!), sun-dried tomatoes, and Parmigiano—which was absolutely delightful. The flavors blended perfectly. Although we were full, we saved room for dessert and ordered cannoli. The portion came with two, making it perfect for sharing. The way they whisk the ricotta gives it a delicate texture that tastes exceptional! Service was fast, and the staff was friendly and attentive. The location is great, right in the heart of downtown Springfield, so we could easily walk back to our hotel. Overall, it was an absolutely fantastic experience—a must-visit if you’re in Springfield and craving authentic Italian food.

    Thank you, Bruno’s - as always. You are a Springfield treasure. Lindsey did a great job as our server and our seafood was fantastic as always. The Grouper flavor was so savory and the scallops were spot-on as always.
