Had a wonderful time at TOLI. Mandy, our waitress, made sure we were well taken care of, going above and beyond our expectations. She added the right touch to my daughter’s birthday dinner. Brian also added to our evening, checking in on us and making sure our evening was special. Thank you to you both. See you all soon!

Visited home and we had to stop by TOLI, Rachel was such an amazing waitress. We had mussels, pasta, and salads. So good to have a taste of home 😋

We had a fantastic dining experience at T.O.L.I. (Tavern of Little Italy)! We chose it for its diverse menu that offers a great mix of Italian classics and American favorites—and it did not disappoint.

We sampled the panko-breaded shrimp, wings and stuffed hot Hungarian peppers, fresh dinner salads, and hearty pasta dishes. One standout feature was the gluten-free pasta option, which is a thoughtful touch for those with dietary restrictions.

The outdoor patio was a perfect spot to enjoy our meal, with a comfortable atmosphere and super attentive service from start to finish.

When visiting Little Italy, T.O.L.I. is definitely worth a stop. Be sure to check out their menu online—and make a reservation, especially on busy nights!

Toli is an awful establishment, I strongly recommend staying away from this place. My girlfriend is 23 years old, but since she had a vertical (valid btw) ID they wouldn’t let us in. What a joke of a bar. They should truly be ashamed of themselves. The owner of this establishment should sell before he’s burnt at the stake. This establishment is truly a disappointment and should be avoided at all costs, I would give it -1,000,000 stars if I could. P.S. they serve warm beer for $7.

My partner and I visited the Tavern of Little Italy in Cleveland, excited to enjoy some authentic Italian food, but we left really disappointed. We wanted to order the pepperoni calzone but asked if we could remove one simple ingredient—banana peppers—and were told it couldn’t be changed. That felt pretty inflexible, especially for such a basic request.

We ended up just having water because there was nothing else we wanted, and it felt like the staff was more focused on encouraging drinks than actually helping us enjoy a good meal. Definitely not what we expected from a restaurant in Little Italy.

Ordered the chicken parm. Over coked by a lot. The chicken was dry and tough as leather. So the food i had was not good. Then the bartender had her kid there. At first he was just being a bored kid but then he started bothering costomers at the bar. You could do better in the area.

Only place open till late and is a student hangout... in case you are wondering why the high ratings though the food is just about okay.

During regular hours, pretty much every other place next to it serves better food.

I had a Flatbread. The crust is amazing. I will return.

The music was way too loud in the back area. We were yelling to hear each other. The live music was actually quieter. Everything else was great!

Food was fantastic. Atmosphere definitely more of a bar vibe. Which is definitely fine, very, very loud tvs from where I was sitting, but there was other dining rooms so couldn't tell from there. Not the vibe i was expecting from what I was told but that's ok. Service was definitely lacking. I'm a very easy person, especially when I am traveling because I am just a single person at that point. Apparently, because I was a single person dining that meant I didn't need any service. I waited about fifteen to twenty minutes for someone to come over and take my order which ensed up being the server that sat me - ok cool- I got my food really fast from same server - which was good..... But then I never saw my server again. Even when I asked for her to pay my bill. The server from the table next to mine ended up grabbing my empty plate, and I was like woo! Teamwork! Cept then I waited about another fifteen twenty minutes only to have the server from the other table walk by to his table. I hated to do it but I called him over and asked if he could grab my server for me.. he asked if it was for my bill and i said yes, and he said he would get my bill. Lo and behold the bartender ended up giving me my bill. At that point I didnt know who was my server was and felt like I was just a nuisance because I was a single person. And bevause I didn't know who the heck qould end up getting my tip, I left it blank which I fricken hated to do. If I could just have the option to give the tip to the person who cooked my food that would have been better.
