A word from Il Pomodoro

Il Pomodoro offers up Italian cuisine with a Mediterranean flair. Built in the 1800's and located in the heart of central New Jersey, this beautiful three-story brick structure, was originally the private residence of a prominent Somerville businessman before undergoing extensive renovations to… become the amazing dining experience it is today. It is a stunning building with a wrap-around porch accentuated by a rooftop copula that overlooks the historic town of Somerville. The only way to truly enjoy Il Pomodoro is to dine there.

A vast collection of wines, top-shelf cocktails and relaxed atmosphere will be sure to make Il Pomodoro your dining room away from home.Continued

"We went here for Valentine's Day and it was quite lovely, the only problem was that there was this strange noise, like a refrigerator or some other equipment that was loudly "humming" throughout our entire meal. It detracted from the lovely ambiance and delicious food. We sat on the second floor, so perhaps it would be better to sit on another level of the building in order to avoid that distraction."

"We'd been to Il Pomodoro once a few years before and remembered it being fairly good. Well, it was fantastic! The only issue is that the bartender is stretched too thin. She was very busy making drinks for diners and unable to serve us drinks at the bar for about ten minutes. I really didn't mind because we were really ready to go to our table anyway, but it could be an issue for someone who wanted to enjoy the bar. The atmosphere in the restaurant is very, very nice - perfect lighting, perfect temperature, lovely decor. Our server was great, there when we wanted something, but not hovering. And the food! All four of us were amazed at how amazing our food was. I've been cravin it ever since. Perfectly cooked, seasoned and presented!"

"An Italian standout in a community filled with plenty of Italian dining options. Nice variety of entrees on the menu and specials were "special". But I give a RAVE review for the buffalo mozzarella antipasti. All was freshly made and delicious!! Next time, I'll order two and skip the entree! Renovated mansion with fireplaces and spacious rooms makes for a lovely environment. Front desk service was superb... we were able to get a table at the last minute despite a "booked" room. Table service was just ok... but the food, ambience and maitre'd totally made up for it! A special evening worth the special price."

"Great food, great bar, great atmosphere, but seriously over priced. Al a carte entres at $30+ a pop and all sides EXTRA (salad, soup, veggies, etc.) is too much to ask of common folk. Overall rating significantly reduced because of the restaurant's pricing policies."
