Pazzo Pomodoro - Ashburn

Ordered ravioli, the sauce was not pleasant and the pasta itself was tough. I explained to the waitress, and she was very accommodating about it, and said she would take the $32 ravioli off the check. I ordered a pizza, which was $16 and we paid without checking the receipt first, and we saw that she took off the pizza instead of the ravioli which was double the cost. I have worked with many POS systems in restaurants, and I am aware it’s not easy to make that kind of mistake, which feels really slimy to do purposefully. Of course, we should have double checked the receipt before giving the card, but the overall experience was very poor and food was subpar without that happening.

Pazzo Pomodoro in Ashburn is an absolute delight! I went in for dinner with a few family members, and we left completely satisfied. From the moment we walked in, the cozy, inviting atmosphere made us feel right at home. The place strikes that perfect balance between elegant and laid-back, making it ideal for anything from a family night out to a casual dinner.

We started with the Calamari Fritti, and it was spot-on. Perfectly crispy and tender, with a spicy tomato sauce that had a nice kick without overpowering the dish. They also offer it grilled with fresh arugula if you want something a bit lighter, which I’ll definitely try next time! We also ordered the Polpette con Ricotta, and wow—the meatballs were incredibly flavorful and soft, with a hearty marinara and creamy ricotta that made the whole thing so rich and comforting.

For the main course, I had the Vermicelli con Vongole, choosing baby clams with the white wine sauce, and it was divine. The pasta was cooked perfectly al dente, and the sauce was light, with just the right hint of garlic and white wine to complement the clams. If you’re a seafood pasta fan, this is a must-try! One of my family members ordered the Pizza Vegetariana, and it looked amazing—grilled eggplant, artichokes, mushrooms, black olives, and gooey mozzarella over a delicious tomato base.

From start to finish, every dish was full of flavor, and the service was excellent. The staff was attentive without being overbearing, and they had great suggestions for pairing food and wine. Pazzo Pomodoro really knows how to make a meal feel special, and I can’t wait to go back with my family to try more of their delicious Italian dishes!

This place was great!!! I’m a picky “foodie” and struggle to find high quality food in the area. Not sure how I just found out about this place. They make their pasta in house and you can taste the difference. Got the butternut squash ravioli and the carbonara. The server EZ was very thorough and made the visit even more enjoyable. Can’t wait to be back to try more!

My new favorite italian spot- the best food, service, and ambiance. Good vibes all around, they are heavy handed on the cheese (THANK YOU!), and they very kindly sing happy birthday if you tell them it's your birthday. Not to mention their delicious desserts. Very clean, and beautiful decor as well.

First time as we just moved to the area. We were seated right away and were able to order drinks and actually ordered quickly too. I had the Tuscan soup which was amazing. We ordered the Lobster Ravioli and Fettuccine Alfredo with Shrimp and Scallops. Unfortunately we waited over an hour for our meal to come. The food was amazing once it arrived. The bread is also very good. Our server Maria Elena was very apoplectic and kind. We will definitely go back but hope the service is better next time. Great menu.

We’ve lived in Ashburn longer than this restaurant has been at this location, and visited for the first time today (7/27/24). We will definitely return to try all the other seemingly delicious options. Service was wonderful, thank you Misty and staff. We enjoyed the Insalata Caprese, grilled calamari, and Vermicelli Con Vongole (clams) with a glass of brunello donna artemisia. Everything was delicious. For desert we enjoyed their house specialty Baci Di Sofia with a espresso. We can’t wait to return with family and friends.
