Absolutely LOVED the food! Service was friendly & helpful - even took home a little something for my son who said this was the best food he's tasted in a long time (not counting his mom's of course!) We will definitely be back!!!!!

Dear Fred and the entire, wonderful staff at Il Pomodoro,
We wanted to thank you again for making our 10th wedding anniversary such a special experience. The restaurant itself is exquisite and is only exceeded in comparison by the kind hospitality that we were shown as guests. We can't thank you enough. Our meal was superb and we are raving to our friends about it. Thanks again and we will definitely see you soon!

Everything was wonderful! Fred and the staff met all of our needs throughout the shower. The bride was in 7th heaven with the food, service, and of course friends.

Thank you so much for all of your patience and help.

I was going to write you a note to let you know how spectacular the affair went. The service was impeccable, and the food delicious. The room was the perfect size for our party. Everyone commented on what an elegant resturant it was.

You and your staff helped to make our wedding a night to remember.

Thank you again for your attention to detail.

To the staff of Il Pomodoro!

My husband and I enjoyed dinner with you on Saturday May 22nd, 2010...we had a marvelous meal, both in terms of the cuisine and the attentiveness of the staff - but we lost track of the time and I'm afraid that we kept them waiting to leave past closing time ..... I do wish to apologize for this, as they work so hard and deserve to leave on time!!

I hope that you will pass on our apologies to Julio and the rest of the staff - they make our experience at your restaurant so much more than an ordinary dining experience, and we feel like family..many thanks for that.

Il Pomodoro has become our favorite restaurant, and we hope to see you soon!

"My husband and I dined at il pomodoro last evening with two friends - it was indeed my first introduction to this excellent restaurant - from the decor, ambiance, incredible service, and amazing food i was simply wowed. I've spent this morning emailing friends about this incredible find in somerville. The specials were described with so much passion that i never even opened the menu - i'll be sure to take a look the next time. Thank you for an incredible dining experience - absolutely everything about the entire evening was exceptional, and delightful. Who needs to treck into New York City anymore! We'll be back very soon. With great thanks and appreciation, Sally" ~ Sally W., Guest, November 2009


"Excellent, Excellent, Excellent!!!!" ~ Gregg C., Guest, July 2009


"I was in on Saturday night with my friend John and had a great dinner on the porch. The drinks were perfect, and the dinner absolutely delicious. I was there once last year, but this time the food was exceptional. To top it off, our waitress, was charming, bright, attentive, and totally a joy to be around, which made the experience that much better, and she should be commended as she is an asset to Il Pomodoro. I'm pretty aware that most people only write to report bad experiences, but I wanted to take a minute to thank our waitress and the chef for a delicious meal and a wonderful experience. Will definitely be back." ~ Jerry P., Guest, May 2009


"Thank you for making my birthday celebration a memorable one. Everything, including the planning, the accommodations and the food, was a joy and the party was stressless, beautiful and delicious and just what I hoped for. I will never be able to pass your building without smiling with recollections of the event. Somerville is so fortunate to have Il Pomodoro as an outstanding landmark for delicious food, elegant service and beautiful surroundings." ~ Sharon G., Guest, April 2009


"My husband and I had our small wedding reception at Il Pomodoro. It was absolutely amazing. Our families are still talking about the great food, service and atmoshpere. You also did our wedding cake and it looked and tasted wonderful! Thanks so much! We will be back to see you soon!" ~ Ann M., Guest, September 2008


"I held my son's christening reception at your restaurant on Sunday, January 13. I can't say enough about the excellent service and the quality and abundance of food. The manager and his crew made sure my guests were well taken care of and comfortable. Everyone raved about how great the food was, how beautiful the place was, and how helpful the staff was. My guests were calling me up all last week telling me what a great time they had. I will definitely be a repeat customer and if I am in need of catering services in the future, you will be my first choice. Thanks for helping to make the day so special." ~ Anita M., Guest, January 2008


"I dined at your establishment on 10/11/07. First, the building rehab is magnificent..love the woodwork. The service from our waiter was superb and the cuisine was exquisite. Thank You." ~ Jeff W., Guest, October 2007


"I just wanted to commend your entire staff for the wonderful dinner last night. My friend and I arrived for Happy Hour just before 5:30 and we loved the decor and ambiance. The water fixture above the bar was very serene. We sat outside on the porch for dinner since it was the perfect night to be outside. The whole staff was so friendly, always checking up to make sure we had everything we need and that everything was okay. We wished we could have joined in on the wine tasting, but please keep me updated for the next time you are going to have the event again. As soon as I arrived at work today I spread the word about our great dinner and I have a group of women that want to attend the next wine tasting as well! I was mentioning that your restaurant would be a perfect place to bring our doctors and clients and everyone seems very interested in that possibility.

I also wanted to say thanks for the tour of Tapastre. It looks great and we are looking forward to trying the food on our next visit. It's so nice to be able to boast about your restaurant because I know that everyone I recommended it to will be just as pleased as I am! Please keep me updated with anything going on at Il Pomodoro. Thank you so much!" ~ Lauren B., Guest, July 2007



"I ate there last night for dinner for the first time, and found it to be a wonderful dining experience. Every attention to detail is taken, from the elegant table settings and chairs, waiter placing napkin on our laps, making sure our table was cleaned up promptly after dinner prior to dessert, to the attentive, respectful, friendly, warm, waitstaff, to the details in the restroom - thick luxurious disposable hand towels with a picture of the restaurant imprinted on each one, toiletries available for use, the cleanliness of the bathroom, and everything in stock. You can tell a lot about a restaurant by it's bathroom(s). If they are kept clean and well-stocked, everything else will have that same level of attention, which it did. A tour of the lowest level of the place by a courteous waitstaff led us to the soon to open Tapas Bar. Elegant, Chic, and Trendy all at the same time. Wine from around the Meditteranean, and up to the minute eclectic mixed drinks that of which type is typically found in Food and Wine Magazine, will be offered. I'm sure the food in there will be of similar style. Overall, restaurant on all floors are tastefully decorated, Service is attentive and detailed, bathrooms impeccable, elegant, warm atmosphere, nicely prepared food." ~ Lisa C., Guest, February 2007


"Suggested Il Pomodoro to some friends for dinner last night. Hadn't been to the spot in sometime but remembered it as a nice family restaurant. What a surprise to find that wonderful building so beautifully and lovingly restored. We we greeted warmly and immediately fell in love with the restaurant. Our waiter Mario and the entire staff treated us as if were in their home. Our only struggle was choosing from the menu...It has been some time since any of us had found so many wonderful things from which to select. Our meal was fabulous. We will be back...we will tell our friends. The friends last night were from the Jersey Shore and they remarked that they would make the trip for a dinner at Il Pomodoro in a heartbeat. Good Luck...Bravo..." ~ Susan B., Guest, November 2006
