Reviews Summary

Bono's Italian Restaurant is a beloved local spot praised for its authentic Italian cuisine and generous portions. Diners rave about dishes like the steak sandwich, gnocchi, and desserts. While the food is largely a hit, some reviews mention inconsistency in quality, particularly with meatballs, and a few note that the ambiance could use a refresh. Service is generally friendly, though occasionally slow.

"This is my favorite places of all time!

Everything and I mean everything I've ever have from here is off the charts!
The cranberry and nut salad was incredible! I all but licked the plate.
Some of our favorites are the stake bomb sandwich, the mama Bono's (pizza or canzone) and the stuffed shells!

Seriously this is Italian done right!"

"The food here was good, the restaurant was full and seems to be a popular place. We had great service! The sasuage parm sandwich was good, the bread they use is terrific! Penne Vodka was also good, just a bit heavy on the red pepper for our liking.

The restaurant could use a few fresh ceiling tiles, some new upholstery and some paint.

We would definitely stop here again."

"I've always enjoyed dining at Bono's. Their food is fresh, tasty, and delicious! During our last visit (07/28/2025), our server Harmony made our family dining experience extra special w/ her upbeat, energetic, friendly, and extremely positive and engaged attentive service. All our selections were perfectly prepared, portioned. presented, and at the optimum temperatures. We look forward to our next visit.
Thank you!
Michael J. Grider"
