Our server was very attentive and quick, and we enjoyed the food. We sat outside and appreciated the patio dining. The portions were reasonably sized and everything was flavorful. We especially enjoyed the saganaki and Brussels sprouts. A very nice variety of Italian and Greek dishes was on the menu, and it seems you can’t go wrong with either!

Food here was great! The waiter, I’m sorry I can’t remember his name, but was outstanding! Extremely high energy and great with making sure everything I ordered to eat was vegan suitable. One of the best waiters I’ve had in a long while. Food was great, got the beet salad and eggplant fries!

Had no idea what to expect but when we saw it we felt in the mood for Greek Italian. There’s a good mix of food choices on the menu and an extensive wine and alcohol list. We went with the Mousaka and Filet Nostimon dishes and for wine we went with the Spellbound Cabernet and Incognito Red Blend. It was all delicious! The atmosphere was nice and well distanced per pandemic precautions. The service was very friendly. We were more than satisfied with every part of this experience and would be happy to come back when we’re in the area. Highly recommend.

This place is welcoming and the staff were friendly and provided great service. The food was average, and the pricing was okay. I rated it four stars for the staff but the food needs better flavor and should be a three star.

Nice restaurant with good food and good service. We went for brunch, the prices were reasonable and service was fast. It’s a quiet place with a small menu. The Greek salad was great and the gyro was a 6 out of 10. I will likely visit again and try some different items. While we didn’t have dessert the cannoli looks amazing.

Pomodoros is a Greek and Italian cafe. The food is seriously medicore….at least on the day we visited. We had lasagna and chicken alfredo. It was bland and uninspired. The salad was…meh. I could taste “refrigerator” on the lettuce… Unappetizing. There was one great point….I will give kudos to the staff. They were really good and very attentive. Very friendly and helpful. Just not my cup of tea for food.

I ordered the Shrimp Alfredo without the broccoli for $17.50. I was hoping that for that price, I would get a decent amount of shrimp and maybe some garlic bread to go with the dish. I was beyond disappointed. I picked my order up to go so I could eat lunch at work, and when got back to my desk and opened the container the sauce was in the bottom of the container, it hadn’t even been tossed. There were 4 pieces of shrimp (which I had to cut up so I could spread them out in the pasta a little for flavor) and no seasoning on the dish other then a few parsley flakes and some pepper. And no garlic bread or a side-salad (it would have cost me almost another $4 for the side Caesar). So, for $18.00 (once you factor in taxes), I basically got a bowl full of noodles with some Alfredo sauce on them. I’ve had better shrimp Alfredo from a frozen Bertolli meal to be honest (and that’s only about a third of the price of this). The only thing that made me go higher than 1 star is because the Alfredo sauce tastes good. Save your money and go somewhere else for your pasta dishes, or better yet buy a frozen Bertolli meal from the freezer section at the grocery store because this place is way over priced for what they give you.

Absolutely amazing meal! Great service. Delicious! Only reason why I didn’t give it gives stars is because bread was never offered and we would have liked some.
