Pizzeria "Da Bruno" — Restaurant in Ascoli Piceno

Finding an open restaurant on a Monday night wasn't as easy as one would have thought. We eventually stopped at Da Bruno pizzeria, and I wish we had not. We ordered a bruschetta with tomato, which was nice, and a mixed salad, which had far too many wilted leaves. It was in fact the worst salad I have ever had, anywhere.
