The delivery staff was wonderful. Place has lots of menu options. Sauce was good, flavor was not really there though on the pizza and the crust had been slightly overlooked (black).

This used to be just a pizza restaurant, but they've added much more. My husband and I split a country pate appetizer and our son-in-law and granddaughter had the city pate, pork or duck. Our daughter got one of their more interesting salad choices. All were quite good. Two of us had the mussels for dinner, one had ragu, and two shared a pizza. Everyone was more than satisfied. They have a wide selection of cocktails and beers. I can attest to the good taste of the lager. Others thought the cocktails were fun. The restaurant was a bit noisy, but most of them seem to be these days. We may have to go back for their $1 oysters on Tuesday!

The restaurant is fairly large but really busy so be sure to make reservations, especially if you are going for dinner. We had reservations and were seated after a short wait on the upper floor - we were glad because it's much quieter upstairs. We had a small deep dish pizza and small chopped salad to share (my husband and I) and it was plenty of food, we even took some home. The salad was very fresh and filled with all sorts of yummy extras. The Pizza was also good, but the crust just didn't hold up to all the topping. Maybe next time we should try the thin crust.

Recently I took some friends there for dinner on Monday night which they have their Prime Rib Dinner for only $15/person. This is a very small Italian restaurant and on every Mon. night they offer this special deal on Prime Rib dinner. I ordered the Garlic Bread as an appetizer and it was so scrumptious and fresh which they put some graded cheese on top of it. Then the Prime Rib dinner was excellent which comes with garlic mashed potato and some veggies. For dessert we had their fabulous Tiramisu and it was out of sight, it is so soft and put a lot of fresh cream on top on the cake. I will go back and try their pasta dishes later on.

Wonderful Mediterranean Menu in a charming location across from Jack London Square. Eat downstairs, large full bar upstairs. Entertainment sometimes. Dine around 5 - 7 and see the parade of sailboats coming home from a day of sailing. Sat & Sunday is best to see the racers returning from the Bay with colorful spinakers up. Next to the Commodore fleet of party boats.

We had a late dinner here the other night. The patio looks lovely but it was a crisp evening so we ate indoors. Only a few tables were occupied. The decor is pleasant with excellent paintings of the Tuscany hills. Our waiter was friendly and helpful. We shared a salad, the eggplant parmigiana, and a slice of cake for dessert. While not cheap, we enjoyed every dish as well as the location and setting. We will return.

Tomatina takes a modern approach to traditional Italian recipes. While our pasta with made-from-scratch sauces and homemade pizza are customer favorites, Tomatina has become known for our signature piadine - fresh, hot flat-bread topped with cool salads,

The server seated our party of six and gave us menus immediately. We ordered drinks which came quickly. The kids enjoyed Italian Sodas, and the adult mojitinas were tasty, but tart. The Signature Garlic Rolls are a must. We ate âfamily styleâ and ordered Minestrone Soup, Lasagne, Cheese Ravioli, Pepperoni Pizza, and Mamaâs Spaghetti and Meatballs. Everyone enjoyed everything except the Minestrone Soup which was served lukewarm. Even when it came back hot, the taste was bland. Overall, we had a nice dining experience and would return.

Went there for dinner on a Wednesday. They take reservations, and we were seated immediately. The staff that served us was well trained, service oriented, awake and knowledgeable about the menu. The Caprese salad was delicious heirloom tomato, creamy mozzarella cheese, next we had the calamari appetizer, fried to golden in fresh oil, it gets better, on to the fisherman's stew (called something in Italian, not Ciopinno, there is no crab) Everything was fresh, well prepared and presented, tasty, the sauce for the fishermans stew was delicious, not a marinara cop out. They have a solid menu with choices of the day. Mom kept eyeing the pizza. Only drawback to me, It is a little noisy.
