Bruno's has been there at least 50 years. It has regular customers, WMU and K-College students, and locals. The cheese is delicious! We order double cheese and it is heaven. The atmosphere is near zero--old booths and tables. But it doesn't matter because the food is so good!

My family enjoyed Caesar salads and individual pizzas. The salads were fresh with tasty dressing. My thin crust pizza with ham, mushrooms, onions and green peppers was very good. Our server was very attentive. Look forward to a second visit.

The food and service were excellent. It's hard to find carbonara these days and even harder to find good carbonara! :) They delivered an excellent plate of it. In addition, the side salad and bread were very good. The wife liked her food as well and we left with happy stomachs! Being in Mattawan, they're unfortunately just barely out of the delivery range... otherwise we'd probably order from them even more. Recommended!Thank you for your kind words about Mangia Pizza & Pasta Co. It is always a great pleasure to hear that we are serving our customers well. We look forward to serving you again soon. Gratefully,Mangia Pizza & Pasta Co Mille Grazie !Emilio & Maria DacobaPropriatari

I was in Kalamazoo this past weekend and my niece recommended we meet at this restaurant. No one had previously been there but Kalamazoo has rarely disappointed when it comes to excellent restaurants. We ordered a bottle of my favorite wine, the Brunello de Montacino which was an excellent value at $90 (followed by a Rosso de Montancino which we enjoyed even more at nearly half the cost.)We started with bruschetta which was okay although the bread was over toasted.Two of us had lasagna and it was a very generous portion but was extremely dry. Next time I would ask them to ladle some marinara of it prior to serving.Also ordered were there "Marsala Style" chicken which was the best thing on the table, although a tad sweet, and the Manicotti which was just standard.We had a great time at the restaurant and the service was excellent.... we were just disappointed in the food.

So this is my second review for Martinis, I had not been there for quite some time since my last review and wow what a change!I have since been there at least 3 other times and each time the food was awesome, so what ever they have done since 2017 it has worked.Great atmosphere, great tasting food, regular changing Menu so what more can you ask for?I suggest trying the upper (main) restaurant area, as well as down the lower levels of the main bar, same menu but totally different feeling, if you want a nice fine dining atmosphere visit the main level but if you want a cozy European restaurant feeling the try the lower level of the bar. Would I go back?Yes and I have multiple times.

Wife & I had Bravo's New Year's Eve buffet on Dec. 31, 2018. It was exquisite!!!. So many tasty choices . . . salads, hot foods (including Beef Wellington), eye appetizing dessert bar, attentive wait personnel. Frankly, we really gorged ourselves because the selections were extensive and the array & quality of food just made us want to back for more. Terry and Shawn did this evening up right, as usual. Bravo is a special place for us and we talk it up with friends. When in the Kalaamazoo area, Bravo is a must dine place and your palate and tummy will thank you.

Used Erbelli's gourmet pizzas for a crowd of near 40. Ordered 13 large, different toppings. Several us made a point of tasting each. There was not a bad one in the bunch. All lasty and with enough toppings to fill the crowd. My review is strange because we didn't require service in the restaurant. I can only say the delivery was on time and arrived hot.Hello! Thank you so much for your great review!Hope to see you back soon!Have a good week!Lisa, Erbelli's
