"Second visit to this restaurant. Food was very good again. The service for the second time was slow and the server did not make us feel welcome. Also for the second time no one at the hostess stand when we walked in. Waited 10 minutes for someone to notice we were there waiting. Not acceptable when entering a restaurant especially in North Scottsdale."

"The food was very good, great price too. Perfect for a small couples dinner. The pizzas are all high quality, made with great ingredients. The server staff sees a little under staffed at times. Aside from that, great food."

"First time here and the pizza was good, but not award winning. Maybe Brugo's hands out awards to itself. Saturday night and the place was not even half full. I'm always leery of that. Our server was very nice, but a little clueless on the beers and wines. Everything was on the pricey side. Personal pizzas were $13, our beers were $9 ea. Small antipasto plate was $10, and didn't have any good cheeses on it, just mozzarella. Canadian bacon should not be on any antipasto plate, only good Italian meats. Very disappointing. When we asked to take our leftover pizza home, our server brought one Styrofoam container and proceeded to stack the pizza slices on top of each other. She said that's all they had. No pizza boxes? Really? We won't be back."

"Waited 15 minutes for a server to approach our table. Had to ask someone to send a waiter over to our table. Restaurant seemed understaffed. Food was very good when it arrived."

"Overpriced, noisy, OK food but not worth the effort. Many better places in this part of Scottsdale, so I won't be returning to Brugo's."
