If you happen to be in the North Deering section of Portland and scouring for something Italian, perhaps American, or seafood then Bruno's is a good place to huddle in for some delicious food. Everything is prepared from scratch, using fresh ingredients, and there's something to suit everyone's taste and liking.

Chicken fingers and spinach strudel, where spinach, pine nuts and mushrooms are stuffed in a pastry casing, and topped with a choice of gorgonzola cheese or tomato crème sauce make exciting starters. The flavor of the sea permeates through dishes such as crab stuffed haddock and shrimp and mussels fra diavlo in a spicy, light red sauce, tossed with spinach fettucini, while the meat lovers have an assortment of dishes to choose from - New York steak pizziola and pork tenderloin. There are plenty of burgers, sandwiches and pizzas if you'd like a light bite.

Portland being home to several microbreweries and brewpubs, a pint of Millers Lite or Coors Lite at Bruno's should not be missed.
