One of my all-time favourite places to eat in Brooklyn. The fish tacos and burgers are to DIE for (not to mention the awesome margaritas).

I never get tired of their fish tacos and micheladas! Spicy mussels/Mexican corn/chopped salad also great. Outdoor seating is especially lovely when the weather is nice.

delightful fish tacos are the embodiment of doing the simple things really well. the 4 AM hot dog is a spectacular beast. kudos to the kale salad. be nice to lena & her staff: they'll treat you well.

Perfect place to have tacos and drink a beer. Chill and easygoing atmosphere. Especially lively during the World Cup! Great place to watch the games.

The spicy mussels and fries are fantastic. Don't listen to that other guy, the service was some of the most attentive I've experienced--and at a casual restaurant, no less!

Fell in love with the fish tacos. And then again with the chocolate churros. Mm mmm so good!

Everything is awesome, but grab a Tecate and some beer batter fish tacos while you're here - it's the perfect meal.

You can't go wrong with the Mexico City Style Michelada. Tecate or Pacifico, IT DON'T MATTAH!

with the departure of ricardo and lena and most of the staff, bruno's halcyon days are long over. such changes translate to a loss of charm and personal touch. the dishes don’t taste quite the same.

Amazing quinoa burgers! So flavorful and yummy. Boyfriend raved about the fish tacos which he said were as good as the ones he had in baja

Burger is great--special grind makes it right! Owner here a lot and clear that she cares. Great addition to the neighborhood! Long may Bar Bruno live.

Very tasty margaritas. Outdoor seating and dog friendly. Oh, and the tacos are very tasty also
WillyAugust 4, 2013
The mixed drinks are strong and reasonably priced. The Hemingway is a refreshing jolt, and the Dr No is crisp with a nice kick.

Wash down burritos and avocado-topped burgers with Pacifico and Tecate-spiked bloody Marias and Mezcal house cocktails.

friendly, good comfort food and relaxed staff with relaxed service, family friendly. Try the Mexico City Style on a hot day

Frozen margaritas are great (better than the featured cocktails, actually).

Chicken slaw salad is great - get extra cumin dressing and pour it all over!

George Best footie themed Mexican joint. Strange but great combo. Good micheladas

It's actually not Spanish style but Mexican. 2 very different countries. Great food, altho pricy, great ambience. Wine list leaves much to be desired.

The fish tacos are all well and good, but carnitas taco is where it's at.

No Patrón cocktails on the menu, but they do carry it (and worth the upgrade from Sauza).

The fries are great. Burger was quite nice too--not quite as good as Buttermilk's, but a welcome addition to the neighborhood.

Tacos are average but they have good margs. Ask for special Patron cocktails!

Good tacos... They come natively spicy, ask for mellow if you are not into calliente
