After having great pizza and great service last time... I was a bit disappointed in Karrington, the girl who took outlet order. No smile or personality and when she bought our pizza she didnât bring the stand or the serving utensil. Pizza was still great. I noticed at the other tables, sometimes she brought the items and others she didnât. They werenât busy so itâs not like they ran out. Iâll definitely come back. Good pizza and salads.

First time visit. Confusing on how to order. It took multiple attempts before I could convince them I hadn't ordered chicken on my wrap. Wife's pasta was cold. They acted aggravated when I ordered sides. Turns out that I should have asked the guy that got my wrap order wrong to order sides. Calamari is very good. Bisque was so thick the spoon stood up in it. Like the Italian drinks.

My bike team dined here the evening before a big rally, and we loved it! The server handled our big group flawlessly. I can personally recommend the bruschetta, the fried mozzarella, and the shrimp salad. Others said both the sea bass and salmon were good. Conveniently located with plenty of parking and a spacious interior, I highly recommend.

This is my second visit to Rotoloâs since living in Tyler. Itâs got some great pizzas. I enjoy getting some of the more unusual varieties. This time I got the Maui Wowi, a fall pizza that was basically an upscale version of a Hawaiian pizza. All of my coworkers food looked incredible too!

This restaurant is top notch! The prices are reasonable but the quality of service, food, and wine served tonight exceeded expectations. Upon entry to the restaurant, the proprietor greeted us and made us feel welcomed. We were seated and our waiter, Jonathan, cane quickly to offer us the menus and wine list. His prompt, kind service continued throughout the night! The wine was wonderful - and the food exceptional. The salad with tomato vinaigrette was both tasty and unique. We tried not to fill up on bread but this was challenging as it was light, fresh and delicious. We ordered a variety of dishes and were particularly impressed with the Chicken Romano and the Seafood a la Mario. Our waiter took care all evening to take care of our needs without being heavy handed. We will go back!

Quick to be seated, the service was exceptional and waitress took time to listen to us rather than hurry off and hide. REALLY excited that the bowl of Alfredo sauce was bigger and deeper with more sauce. Always eat to much bread sticks and salad so always taking home leftovers. Bathroom was clean but urinal wouldnât flush.

Large group was welcomed and accommodated at the bar-height tables near the open kitchen. Waiter âBâ was attentive and courteous. Appetizers and mains are creative and delicious; stand-bys (pizza, spaghetti and sauce, meatballs) are delightful. Fun cocktail menu, too!

I don't think they have a website, but please add this to your list. It's a local favorite!
Reviewed By BJ4522
Bruno's received such good reviews and was recommended to us by people who live in Tyler so we expected great pizza. We ate in and the service was average. The pizza was limp and the crust tasted like cardboard. Honestly, the pizza at a well known children's pizza and game place was better. We won't be back.
