Brucci's Pizza - Fruit Cove

They have locations in Fruit Cove and Ponte Vedra Beach, right near Beaches Hodges. Jacksonville has plenty of Italian restaurants that offer only average pizza, but Brucci's stands out with its decent pizza. They also serve pasta and paninis, though I haven't tried their pasta, and it doesn't look too appealing. However, the pizza is quite tasty. We purchased a $25 certificate online for just $12, which is what prompted us to give it a try, and we will definitely be returning. The food was great, and the service was also commendable.

We’ve dined here several times over the years and have often been disappointed, primarily due to the service, and occasionally the food. However, last night (January 2021), we decided to give it one last shot since we had a voucher. As soon as we entered, we were warmly greeted by the pizza chef. Our server, who had curly dark hair, was fantastic. He checked in on us frequently, cleared our table promptly when we were finished, and brought the check at just the right moment without us needing to ask. The salad with chicken bites was absolutely delicious, and the pizza was significantly better than we had experienced in the past—it was cooked to perfection. We both really enjoyed our meal and hope this positive change continues; I believe they might have a new owner.

The pizza is fantastic and has a delightful crispy thin crust. The cheese is of excellent quality as well. The customer service is on point, just like you would expect at most places like this.

*Update: I appreciate the way this restaurant came out again. They compensated me with new pizza and garlic knots. This pizza was fantastic! Thank you for your customer service! Original Review: I love white pizza, but their had so much garlic, it was really rough. Every bite had a real crunch on it because of all the garlic. I also found the garlic knots well made and hard to be. I was disappointed because I loved Brucci, and that was the first time I could get my hands on her food in 12 years. I also used UberEats and they were fast at delivery, which is why I gave two stars instead of one. I've never thrown away a whole pizza before, but I just can't get it stomach. Happy for you, Bruccis, for the old days! Maybe it wasn't your day.

Always excellent! The specialties are consistently fantastic! I absolutely love this restaurant.
