10 Reviews on “Pomodoro”

  We were here a couple of months ago, less than an hour ago before close on a weekday and were turned away as there was no wait staff and were open only for takeout. We went elsewhere. Decided to give it one more try. On a Saturday night just before 9pm and all the tables were full. Acknowledged a few minutes later, and a table was available in under 10 minutes. A muted TV played the Jays game. The restaurant is not fancy, but clean. The two servers were probably not enough and were serving all the tables. A manager type person also came by and was helping around. The lady server was amazing, the male server. Or so much. Ordered a Fettuccine with ros sauce, an Eggplant Parmigiana and an Uno Panzarotti. Wanted to order a pizza instead as it looked good on other tables. Was served Focaccia bread with oil and balsamic vinegar. The bread freshly baked from pizza crust perhaps and has a few freckles of cheese. The oil didn’t taste olive or wasn’t EV. The balsamic vinegar made up. The Fettuccine was cooked perfectly ( a notch above al-dente) and sauce seemed too runny to start with. It thickened after a few bites perhaps from the starch from pasta. Slightly under seasoned and needed an extra addition. The Panzarotti deep to perfection. The crust crisp and just enough quality mozzarella cheese inside. Again I would add a topping (in siding ?) for next time. There is no tomato sauce inside the Panzarotti. Served on a bed of tomato sauce and served with tomato sauce as well. The sauce too runny and less flavoured. But a few dashes of chilli pepper flakes fixed it. The star was Eggplant Parmigiana. The best I have had in a long time. Fried perfectly with layers of cheese and tomato sauce. I wish they gave something on the side with the EP to cut down on the fat ( a piece of bread?)The cost for food is quite reasonable for an Italian restaurant, but again it is not a fancy restaurant. You can take your family, but perhaps not your date.

  Excellent! We went based on the reviews here and were not disappointed. Service and food are excellent. Our waitress was very welcoming and friendly. I have been searching for a good seafood pasta for a long time and finally found it. The build your own pasta makes so much sense. I had linguine Alfredo with a double helping of seafood. The Alfredo sauce is made to order and is thick and tasty, the way you want it. And the remarkable thing is that it was a cheap meal. We will definitely be going back and probably often!

  This place has been empty every time I’ve stopped by and I can’t understand why. Their service is always so good – they’re kind and courteous and very helpful.The food is delicious, and unexpectedly so.The pasta is always super rich and creamy and even something as simple as their garlic bread with cheese is super satisfying. While I’m not a fan of panzarottis in general, my boyfriend did enjoy (but couldn’t finish) the pepperoni panzarotti – it’s massive, seriously! herestomytwenties.com
