Place was great but their open table app was not working so when we got there they said that they had no tables. Got one anyway. Spaghetti and meatballs was awesome

Food and beverage were excellent. I had a martini and it was a perfect balance. My salmon piadini had a splash of cream pleasant flavor. The waitress took a while to come take our drink and food order but once she did the food was out pretty quickly. Definitely coming back

Wait for food was outrageous- two waiters for a very busy Sunday evening . It took almost an hour to get our pasta and they were out of Garlic Knots. Pasta underdone: salmon dinner was small in size. Dinner was a disappointment for a special evening with the Grandchildren. Management needed to be on it and not run out of food at 5:15 !! Seriously!

What a great little Italian restaurant. We were in town visiting from Las Vegas, NV and made a reservation here a week in advance. I loved the small restaurant feeling. Workers were bustling around to ensure all the customers were being attended too. Then the food, wow, what a surprise. We usually go to Buddy V's(AKA Cake Boss) at the Venetian when we want great Italian food. I had the Homemade Meat Lasagna and to my amazement, it was better than Buddy's. The sauce was great but not over powering. My wife had the Spaghetti and meat balls. Again, wow, the meat balls were better than Buddy's. Overall, this place was amazing and staff all very friendly.

Normally Tomatina’s is great for dinner and lunch, but brunch on Mother’s Day was pretty terrible (food didn’t come out as a group, tasted bad, took a LONG time—-they were in over their head here). Very disappointing

A very middle of the road restaurant in just about every aspect: the taste and presentation of the food was just okay, the cocktails weren't that great, the speed of service was good, and the servers were helpful and friendly. All things considered, I would give the restaurant a 3 out of 5 stars.
