Great food and service. We were there for a group Birthday celebration. They brought the birthday boy a tiramisu with a roman candle in it. They also asked the whole restaurant to sing Happy Birthday with us. Wonderful experience.

Tomatina's is nothing like it used to be. 15 years ago it was a happening place. Today, I'd recommend it only for takeout. The food is still good, but the atmosphere is GONE!

What made our experience so wonderful at Tomatina - Santa Clara was our server Pedro, who took our orders in the nick of time before a party of 30 arrived, and our hostess Maddy, who chose the perfect table for our party in the restaurant. Because of their excellent customer service, we will be returning soon to dine at Tomatina - Santa Clara.

A very good experience. The service was little slower due to arrival of 2-3 large parties and insufficient number of servers. But our server did a very good job.

I’ve been to Tomatina‘s many times, and I have to say that it’s all good, except the new way that you’re supposed to pay digitally. It’s not good. Someone else’s meal showed up on my account, and my friend wanted to pay for hers in cash, and it wouldn’t Show up right away, and we had to call the waiter back over. It’s great to be able to order your food digitally, but for paying? Not so easy. I think from now on, we’re just going to have the server take our order. He’s super nice and always has a smile, so I’m happy to do that.

Service was slow. We had a reservation and waited a long time to be acknowledged at the door. (In fact, a couple who walked in right after us ended up leaving because we stood without anyone even saying hello for an extended period of time). When we were finally acknowledged, we notified the hostess of our reservation, she pointed at a table and stated that it was being cleaned and we would be seated shortly. The table was then given to a smaller party of 6. We were a large group of 9, yet the smaller group was given the bigger table and we were offered a narrow small table, so we didn’t have to wait. When the Manager noticed we were at a small table, he asked the hostess to move us to a larger table and she said to him that, the smaller table was what we wanted (close to the door where it was very cold). We spoke up at the point and said we’d like to move to a larger table. When our waitress came, we notified him we were ready to order and he told us he wanted to get our drink orders first. I’m not sure why, but we let it slide. Food was decent, at least. Would probably recommend ordering ahead if you really wanna eat the food from this place

Usually my favorite but had a bad experience on Valentines day. Our reservation was allotted to somebody else. They took 15 minutes to offer us a seat which we had already reserved. The waiter came to our table after almost 20 minutes and was in a hurry to take the order. Overall the food was okayish. Don’t visit this place on a Valentines Day.

I’ve been to Tomatina many times, and though I like it a lot (obviously, as I keep going back), their pasta sauces could be a tad thicker. I’m not crazy about the meatballs, as they are too wet, and don’t have enough Italian spices in them. I don’t get those anymore. This time, I got a personal pizza, which I have never e ordered before. The Carne Combo. It was outstanding. The crust is amazing, lots of toppings, and when I go back, I’m getting it again. The service is always good, the folks that wait on me are always really nice and friendly. I enjoy going there.

green salad was delicious. entrees were good but not fantastic. certainly tasty and filling. The baked penne with Italian sausage needed more sausage, but otherwise was delicious. For an easy meal and reasonable prices I'd recommend it.

Going to the restaurant you have to have not so high expectations. Service is not high dinning and the ambiance is not either. BUT! I love this place and stick by it. Good flavor. Taste authentic. 10/10

We were pleasantly surprised. Food items on their specials menu were very tasty. Cocktails were a bit on the sweet side, but good. Service was not adequate to keep us satisfied and cashed out conveniently quickly before going to the movies next door.
