December 23 2023 went in there to just see the vibes for the night I already ate but knew I was going to be drinking so I got soupa- the taste was flavorful . Enjoyable but would like to try their other menu items anyways the Waiter that day had Stella customer services he took pictures for me in all that .The the spot was huge and vibrant it was calm that day however I will be back : top notch : churros at that . So yes try them out : you will enjoy
Chilaquiles were great. Perhaps a little heavy on the tortilla chips. The menu has it as verde, but they subbed a rojo sauce for me. Service was prompt. The atmosphere was ok, but it’s a family-friendly spot so there were some screaming kids around. There isn’t a lot the restaurant folks can do about that, though.
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 tempting menu.

I don’t ever get frozen margaritas but here I did. Right out of the machine at the front of the bar. It must have been made with fresh lime juice which married perfectly texture of the slush. I would have supplemented with a shot of tequila but we were starting a big night so I held back. The spicy salt rim was the perfect addition. I’m definitely going back for more. BTW it’s the perfect place to wait for a table at Untable across the street :)
I was heading to Mccarren park and stopped by Bar Bruno Thursday afternoon for a quick lunch. The food definitely exceeded any expectations for tacos in Greennpoint- some of the best tacos I had in NYC! Specifically was blown away by the shrimp tacos and the aioli that accompanies them. Justin behind the bar was super friendly and helpful while giving us space to chilll and enjoy. He recommended the churro pancake tacos which we had to get- and he was absolutely on point. It was my day off so I had a margarita-- a classic cocktail done RIGHT. Overall I love it here and will definitely be back to try more brunch items.
very disappointed and fell short. Got a few appetizers and got them and finished them before drinks even came. We sat before a few tables and they gave the other tables drinks before us and we waited over 30mins. Sad. But the food was good. Soup had great flavor.
Very nice restaurant and nice outdoor dining area! We have steak toco and quesadillas, guacamole and wines! Very delicious and with decent price. It’s usually packed during the weekend but weekday is no so busy, easily walked in a get a seats. They have indoor seatings as well.
The Birria Pizza is top tier! Like definitely the best thing I’ve had in a while. They have good options for kids: tator tots, hot dogs, etc. Great family friendly location. Almost every one who worked there is upper friendly but I’d say that you might find that your server will change throughout your time.
