Bar Bruno — Restaurant in New York

A few weeks ago, I visited Bar Bruno, a charming Mexican Bistro that knows how to play with flavors. With each bite, I found myself already plotting my next visit.

Bar Bruno is the perfect neighborhood spot and a MUST-VISIT. While I won't wax poetic about the decor, the ambiance cradles you in its warm embrace. For an after-work cocktail, an impromptu date night, or simply a delightful meal—Bar Bruno is a beautiful option. Oh, and did I mention they serve brunch?

The staff embodies warmth, extending a welcome that feels like a hug in the form of impeccable service—the food dances on your palate, a perfect companion to your choice of libation.

On my first visit, I indulged in a taco trio featuring steak, fish, and shrimp, a true palate pleaser. This time around, we explored their dinner menu. We initiated the feast with Guacamole and Plantains, then ventured onto the Chopped Cheese Wraps, Burger Tacos, and Quinoa Veggie Burgers. For the grand finale—we ended on a sweet note with the Flan and Dessert Nachos.

Guacamole is not my usual pick, but the pumpkin seeds made it a flavorful and adventurous choice. The Plantains was the perfect harmony of sweet and savory, transcending a mere appetizer to become the ultimate side dish.

The Chopped Cheese Wrap deserves a standing ovation. A mouthwatering blend of pepper jack cheese and onions—makes it an absolute must-order. The Quinoa Veggie Burger, a vegetarian delight, tasted so good that I momentarily forgot it was meatless. But the crown jewel of the evening? The Burger Tacos—imagine the perfect burger and a delightful taco having a culinary love affair. And guess what? The French fries are in the tacos. Genius.

And the dessert? The Flan and Dessert Nachos brought our memorable meal to a sweet conclusion.

While dinner was an absolute delight, I'd gladly return for the margaritas. These concoctions are in a league of their own, perfectly balanced with a burst of flavor that avoids the pitfall of excessive sweetness. Passion Fruit and Strawberry were our picks, and they left us craving more.

This visit to Bar Bruno was nothing short of a wonderful, unforgettable experience, and I'm eagerly anticipating my next visit with their...

DELICIOUS!!! We Just moved to the neighborhood and we have been trying all the restaurants in the area and I literally just finished eating the best grilled chicken burrito I have ever eaten. I am born and raised here and have eaten hundreds of burritos. It was served with a huge mixed green salad that was done right. If you already eat here you know what I’m talking about and if you are undecided please take my word, you won’t be disappointed. A note on customer service; 5 stars! There was an error on my order and when I called they were incredibly professional and genuinely nice about everything and fixed it in like literally 10 minutes! This has happened to me at other restaurants and I have been met with poor attitude and sometimes afraid to call. I’m sorry I didn’t get his name and the delivery guy so the compliments...

The only reason we were there was, we were waiting for the other hyped up pizza joint. Therefore we only ordered 3 small bites and drinks. The potato tater was apparently from the frozen section of your supermarket. The chips for the guacamole for sure came from another aisle. They were stale and hard to bite. The guacamole was bland and not very pleasant to eat. The churro was soggy and limp. What a huge disappointment those 3 were. To top it off, the cocktail was only so so. The waitress? She's merely there because she wanted her pay cheque. Why is it so difficult to find a waitress or waiter who has personality and like what they do? And you expect a customer to leave you tips automatically when you aren't making an effort? I'm not asking much but would a...
