Great food and what a good atmosphere. I would definitely recommend this place for a date night or just to go by yourself and have a meal and a drink. The service is absolutely amazing, Haley was our server. She was impressively speedy as we sat outside, kind, and knows her menu well. The Manager who's name is Perrin (surprised I remembered that but she was amazing so it makes sense) kept coming out to check on us as well. What a great place will definitely be back

The food was fantastic. My wife got the ribeye and it was cooked perfectly to order. The potatoes and green beans were incredible. I got the short rib chimichunga and it was incredible. Our friend got the the schnitzel, which was a special and normally on the menu, and he loved it.
The waitress was on top of everything. She was always checking on us and that was impressive considering how busy the restaurant was. We arrived at 5:15 PM and there was no wait. However, shortly after that the traffic increased.
Overall, this is hidden gem that is absolutely worth your time and money. We will most certainly be going back.

The place looks nice, but the service was very poor. The meat came burned, I asked for more Coke and it never came. I didn’t feel welcome at all.

Went to dinner here on a Friday evening with my girlfriend. Definitely recommend reservations as it was busy. The food is absolutely delicious! We enjoyed the meatloaf, chicken, Parmesan, wine, and shared peanut butter pie for dessert. I’m sure everything else on the menu is fantastic. We will definitely be back.

Three of us were seated tonight for dinner and waited 1 hour to be served our food. After 50 min we asked that we be fed something if our dinners weren’t ready. We were hungry. Waitress arrived with a bread basket ( no plates). Not sure why we weren’t given that before our 50 min wait. After an hour our meals arrived along with a Brussel sprout appetizer. When asked if we still wanted the appetizer ( since we hadn’t ordered it specifically but in a request to tide us over until dinner came) the waitress said “ if I leave it you will be charged”. When we said no thank you she replied “ good that’s just more for me”. A more appropriate response would have been to apologize for our 1 hour wait.

Made a reservation for 745 on Saturday to celebrate my birthday. We sat there for 15 minutes and nobody came to even give us water. 3 different members of wait staff served other tables around us but we were ignored. My husband and I have frequented Tombo over the past 10 years with a few issues — but this is ridiculous. Will not recommend, will not return.

Nice restaurant and great staff. Food not so much. I got a braised short rib. It was ok but tasted more like pot roast. The risotto had a plastic like taste. My wife got a pasta special, which was much better. The alligator sausage and chicken soup was the best part.

Visited Tombo on a Monday evening with my girlfriends. We were seated promptly (made reservations) and had the most fantastic hostess (Kayla??). She was very attentive and friendly. As the night went on, the restaurant got busy. I highly recommend reservations. We had the egg rolls for our appetizer. Very tasty. I ordered the New York strip which came with a mushroom sauce, potato's and Brussel sprouts. I opted for a side of onions instead of the potatoes. The steak was char grilled perfectly as well as the sprouts. My friends ordered the fried snapper and veggies. It was delicious as well. We opted to skip desserts. Great food and excellent location!
