This was a return visit with my sister, nephew and niece. They had recently returned from Italy and were looking for some local good Italian. I suggested Pomodoro’s. They were pleasantly surprised. I had the shrimp and scallop dinner with a special request to have pesto on the pasta. It was great.

My first trip and it was excellent. My wife and I ordered a large Pomodoro Grand Deluxe pizza. I had no idea the pizza was that large. Huge! It was literally one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had. We took the other half home to eat the next day. I was just very impressed. If you are a pizza lover you owe it to yourself to try it.

We stopped in after exploring the area, the food was fantastic and so was the service! We were sat in the party room because of how busy they were but the manager and the waitress made sure we had everything we needed. I started with a mixed drink which was very pleasant. The food was awesome! We ordered the garlic knots, they were the right amount of garlic and oil, crunchy and doughy all at the same time(as a good garlic knot should be!) we ordered a pizza and it was flavorful, we also ordered the Alfredo and it was buttery and delicious. I would recommend this lovely restaurant to anyone looking for some great Italian food and top notch service! We will be back!

Not the best I’ve ever had but acceptable. Italian sandwich was delicious… pizza tasted like sauce was store bought as did the pasta dish. Drinks were not refilled the entire time we were there & it took 20 mins just to order our food plus an additional 30 to get it to the table. Servers were friendly but inattentive, mostly concerned with the large group off to the side. Okay visit but probably wouldn’t go out of my way to return.

Our family celebrated a birthday here yesterday and some dishes were excellent and others average. I had Penne with Volka Sauce, very good. Cesar Salad was overly seasoned with vinegar but lettuce was crisp. My son had Chicken Fettuccine with Alfredo Sauce and liked it very much. Husband had Chicken Parm and he felt the chicken was seasoned well but was hard in some spots. Bread was fresh and crunchy. Another family member had Angel Hair Pasta with Sauce and she liked the pasta but not the sauce. I would eat here again because I liked my meal. Service was okay. The waitress was friendly but not on top of things. GREAT for a date night or family gathering. Nice booths. Check out the photos.

I love this locally-owned Italian restaurant! It’s cozy, colorful, & relaxing. The service is great, the food is wonderful, & you may choose tasters of locally crafted beers & whiskey. Full bar and extensive wine list compliment a varied assortment of dishes. Yummy homemade desserts include an incredible raspberry cheesecake.

The best Old Fashioned I’ve ever had was crafted at Pomodoro’s somewhere around 2017-2018. Before leaving, I walked back and complimented the bartender and left him his own tip. I now wish I had done one more thing and asked him for the recipe. I’ve not had a finer drink anywhere, ever. This would include this same restaurant where I would order it hoping lightening would strike twice.

You can get pizza in my little village of Denver, NC to be sure, but there are only two places that get my repeat dollars: Joey’s Fine Foods where their Grandma’s pizza, a “Detroit-style” pizza which has an airier texture than your traditional deep-dish dough, and cheesy, crispy underside. It is served in a square shape which I’ve read is key to this pizza. Topped with San Marzano sauce and your choice of toppings, it’s the best deep dish I’ve had in all of North Carolina.

For a slice more reminiscent of what you can get in NYC, I go to Pomodoro’s. It can almost, but not quite, make you believe you are enjoying a New York City pie. Its gooey goodness with cheese and an unapologetic float of oil on top. Put away that napkin, Philistine.

I usually don’t get to order just a cheese pizza when the Lovely Wife and my son are with me. But on this visit, the Lovely Wife is in Little Rock, and my son, who is on the autism spectrum, has moved into a group home. He seems to have adjusted nicely, in case you wonder. Me? I am not adjusting quite as well. I do miss him and how he could fill any space with his gleeful presence. Being an empty nester isn’t immediately all it’s cracked up to be. But I digress.

I am on the patio, in the mood for some Al Fresco dining. It’s not like some cozy sidewalk café in an NYC but if you close your eyes, sip your wine and listen to the 50’s era Frank, Dean, and Rosemary music, you can escape for a moment.

The owner, Blake, happens by and asks how things are. He also owns Citrus, the fun breakfast an lunch café next door. We strike up a conversation and I tell him my Old Fashioned story. He thinks a moment, asks me how I like mine and then simply says, I wonder if you had a Galliano Old Fashioned. I’ve never had Galliano in any drink I am aware, so with a wink, he says to give it a try. He brings it out and it is almost as magical as the one I remember. I think maybe a dash more bitters to temper the sweetness. Who knows, maybe it was better, memory being the trickster it can be.

You see, that story at the beginning had a point.

Cutting to the chase: Instead of ordering the New York Style, out of curiosity, I went with the Sicilian with fresh Mozzarella. It is a monster rectangular pizza. I used my phone’s measurement tool and estimate the pizza is 2.5” at the crust and 1.5” in the center. The pizza is soft and chewy, not undercooked.

However, getting CHEESE ONLY was a MISTAKE. All this bread demands a lot of toppings. The cheese only is completely overwhelmed by all the bread. I would also need to order extra ramekins of sauce in which to dip the pizza. I am curious how the Sicilian will fare with mounds of toppings instead of just cheese. It would be a feast for four or more people. But for just a cheese pizza, the New York Style is the only real choice.

Final notes. I had the Tritana Montepulciano red from Abbruzzo, Italy. A nice wine with a soft finish but no match for this pizza. The menu describes the notes as intense. I am not getting that. I’d try the 12e Mezzo Primitivo from Pulgua, Italy maybe.

Literally saving the best for last: A hat tip to Blake for introducing me to Galliano and being a genuine host. Look for an opportunity to mix in some Galliano in a drink.

The true star of tonight’s dining experience was Idallis, my attentive server. She was friendly, laughed at my jokes, and offered some great advice after I shared my thoughts about my meal. Mostly, even though she had other tables, she never made me feel like she didn’t have a moment for a little chit-chat. Nicely done, Idallis.

I got to be honest, THE WORST PIZZA IVE EVER BEEN SERVED!! Our server was good. Food was terrible. Will never ever go back here!! Such a waste of space. Dough was super soggy. So nasty. They came out to offer something else but we didn’t want anything else they had. If you can’t get pizza right, there’s no way I’m trying anything else. Way overpriced as well. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!! Why didn’t my (2) pizzas look like the pictures??
