Jonathan's food is always great, with something for everyone's taste. 2 of the fellas wanted burgers last night - they cleaned their plates! Another couple split the curry special and cleaned theirs. I had my usual Caesar with Jon's amazing croutons and the delectable sweet chili shrimp. Everyone had a taste of my shrimp and agreed they are outstanding.

This was our first trip to Lombardi’s, and it will become a regular part of our restaurant rotation. We went for Christmas lunch. We were happy that we could order from the regular menu, the brunch menu or the Holiday Menu. All three of us enjoyed our cocktails and meals. The design is beautiful , which adds to the overall lovely experience.

Really enjoyed dinner here! Drinks were made perfectly! Loved the fried artichokes, meatballs and focaccia. Of the entrees we ordered, the sheet pan lasagna was our favorite followed by the bolognese. The Marsala trumpets were good but not particularly special. Tiramisu and cheesecake were the perfect ending to the meal! I’ll definitely be back. Thank you!
