Stopped in for the delicious smoked salmon, left with pasta and limoncello in my bag as well. Great food, great people!

Really excellent food shop. Punches above its weight and the people are absolutely delightful. No warm food but great to pop in and grab something delicious to take home.

I wish I could give this place 10 stars! We got the meat tortellini with meat sauce and I am glad we got 2! Owners are amazing ❤️ The atmosphere is homey but modern. Love every inch of this place. My Nonna would be impressed.

Absolutely delicious food and sauces. Great local spirits. Consistently friendly and knowledgeable staff. Go here!
I stopped eating here a few years ago because the rude older lady (manager or owner?) Put a giant pile of onions under my chicken alfredo. When I complained she acted like that was normal? Haha ok. This place sucks.

If you are looking for some pasta all you need to do is choose the flavor and what shape to cut it into. We chose roasted garlic and black pepper Pappardelle. Both were delicious the black pepper was everyone's favorite.

A true Richmond gem! The staff is absolutely delightful, knowledgeable, and friendly. The fresh pasta, subs, and small batch spirits are amazing. The frozen lasagna, ravioli, and cannelloni offerings are always a wonderful treat after a long day when I want something homemade but don’t want to cook something from scratch. They are a pick-up location for Creambrook Farms raw milk share (how I found out about this amazing spot). Don’t miss out on their house smoked salmon, signature cocktails, or small but well curated beer and wine selections either!

This is one of the best places in the world. You come in and ask for fresh pasta in whatever shape you feel like getting that day and they will cut it for you. I just got fresh basil pasta that was made an hour ago and not even listed on the board yet. This is a piece of Heaven in Richmond.
NOTE: Bombolini no longer does dine in or any sort of hot food service. They used to, but have stopped since the pandemic. This review is solely about their homemade pasta products, available for purchase at the store.We've been a fan of Bombolini pasta since seeing them at the RVA Big Market, so we decided to visit the actual store. It's neat being in the store, because as opposed to the precut and pre-packaged noodles, when you order pasta here, they take out the dough (of whatever flavor you've selected) and cut it fresh. While we were there, they were also making fresh ravioli, which my kids found mezmerizing.There's a large selection of products in store, from ravioli to lasagna to sauces, drinks, etc. We also picked out some smoked salmon because it's AMAZING (if you haven't tried it, you're missing out), as well as some ravioli from the fridge. If I lived closer, I would definitely come frequently. It's such good quality fresh pasta, and the process was so smooth and simple. If you're in the area and looking for a quick and easy dinner option, you can't go wrong with some fresh pasta, salmon, and sauce!Vegetarian options: The pasta itself is vegetarian, and there are vegetarian sauces, ravioli, lasagna, etc.Kid-friendliness: I came with my 3 and 5 year olds. The space is small, and you just want to make sure your kids don't go grabbing everything off the shelves, but my kids really enjoyed seeing them cut the pasta as well as the ravioli machine.Parking: There's a reasonable amount of street parking, but it does get busy.

They have amazing fresh pasta. There is also a freezer case with baked dishes like lasagna, or just pasta, meatballs, etc. Also marinara sauce with or wo meat. I usually get the lasagna and it's excellent. They close at 7p though so plan ahead!!

This is a really cool market where you can load up on pasta and prepared meals. They also smoke Salmon on site so I got some to go and it was great. They offer different smoke levels and even "burnt end" pieces which are great for snacking. The proprietor and staff here are awesome as well.

As soon as I walked in the door the smell of fresh pasta sauce took over my senses. The variety available between pastas, wine and sauces is unmatched. One of the most authentic business and individuals you’ll find in Richmond.

a delightful place. A wide array of handmade fresh pasta to take home. Excellent non-dairy ravioli options, variety of homemade frozen lasagna and ravioli. They have a small wine selection as well as spices and sauces.They run a small distillery. Every one of their beverages are very unique and flavorful and highly recommended. You can do a sampling and take home some. Very interesting Alcohols. The staffer super nice and welcoming and highly knowledgeable on all of the products and alcohol. Check the hours before you get in. They do not have any on-site food. Everything is take home to cook.
