Bruna's is a historic Italian restaurant that has received mixed reviews from diners. While some found the service to be subpar and the pasta dishes underwhelming, others have raved about the delicious food and top-notch service. The portabella appetizer and tiramisu are highlighted as standouts on the menu. The cozy ambiance and generous portions have also been praised. The restaurant's longstanding presence on Oakley Ave, dating back to the 1930s, adds to its charm. Overall, Bruna's seems to be a hit or miss dining destination, but those who have had positive experiences rank it among the best Italian restaurants in Chicago.
