Main was excellent (parma ham ravioli with burnt butter and sage). I did not like my starter (crostini with veal kidney and prawns) but the deep fried scallops with basil and pomodoro sauce was delicious (I stole a bite from my dining partner). Dessert was good. Overall, good wholesome Italian food.
What a pity! This restaurant did not live up to the expectations we had. The menu looked so tempting! It just seemed that we were more of an inconvenience than actual patrons reviewing the establishment for something I believe you sign up for voluntarily to create awareness.

We announced ourselves on arrival and were seated outside in the parking lot despite the fact that there was lovely seating inside. We were presented with their normal a la carte menu which we corrected, then we were presented with the lunch menu for restaurant week despite the fact that we came for dinner! Ordered our food which took far too long and frankly did not impress. I ordered wine and was given a dirty glass. Our napkins were also full of lipstick stains.
We actually had to laugh because there was absolutely nothing Pomodoro could do to redeem themselves. There was also no manager in site and I would have preferred chatting direct rather than writing this review but alas, I have no choice.
We came us four, i.e. the whole family, and we were treated like kings. Excellent and very innovative cuisine, first of all, every meal was a real treat. Very attentive detail oriented service.
Thank you.
