   Food and service very good- second time there and both times almost empty. Not exactly in a great area but still worth going.

   A very nice Italian meal that was full of flavor. All of dishes were tasty from my wife's seafood ravioli to our kids pizza. The service was outstanding and the waitress very nice. A hidden gem in Manassas

   Went for Mother's Day and had no problem making a reservation on Open Table only a few days in advance. That turned out to be a problem, as one of the managers let us know that they had many more reservations than they were actually capable of serving in a timely way. So, while we were seated immediately after we arrived, the delivery of our salads and meals was very slow as they just didn't have the kitchen staff to keep up with all the orders. That being said, the manager did apologize several times. We had no issues as we could see they were swamped. As we find every time we have eaten here, the food was outstanding. We had the Grilled Caesar Salad and the Tri-Color Salad. Both were very good. Our main courses were the Cowboy Ribeye Steak and Grilled Branzino. Both were outstanding. The Cowboy Ribeye was one of the most flavorful steaks I've ever had.

   We came for our prom dinner. We chose outside dining and even when it rained we were covered and it was beautiful. We ourselves were quite loud since it was outside but when we walked inside you could the here the slight buzz of conversation. The waiters were so nice over the phone and in-person. The food takes a little bit but it's reasonable considering how delicious it was. I wasn't expecting an almost high dining experience at all but that's what was delivered and i would absolutely go back

    This is an upscale restaurant in a little known and unusual area. The food is very good, presented well, and recently accented with little amenities such as candles and flowers on the table. Cocktails need a little more work. A great find and highly recommended. Carol K

    This restaurant is so consistent. Always enjoy dining here. Food is wonderful, presentation excellent, and they have some good wine selections at very reasonable prices. We have ordered the Chef Special the last few visits. Unfortunately, that was not available. Hoping that it will be an option in the future.

    My wife and I decided to celebrate Valentine’s Day with dinner here. We were greeted right away and were seated as soon as the hostess found our name on the reservation chart. The main dining room is clean and nicely appointed. The tables were far enough apart that you did not feel crowded or bothered by the conversations of others. Bread and olive oil were brought right away and the menu featured a special menu for the occasion as well as their normal offerings. We started with drinks and a cantaloupe and prosciutto appetizer. The plating was beautiful and the dish was tasty. I was pleased to find the cantaloupe was ripe and sweet considering it was the middle of February and it went well with the meat and drizzle of balsamic glaze. For our entrees, I ordered the lamb ravioli and my wife ordered the lobster ravioli from the specials menu. Our waitress told us that everything was made from scratch in their kitchen and we were looking forward to what was sure to be a delicious meal. The lobster ravioli was delicious with a nice portion of lobster meat in each pillowy bite served in a lobster bisque cream sauce. My lamb ravioli was very satisfying and earthy with lots of mushrooms and a lovely brown sauce. There was not as much lamb in the dish as I would have liked, but it was present and tasty. My only complaint was the time it took for our main course to arrive. Things were moving very smoothly at first but then there was a delay of over 30 minutes between our appetizer and main course. The restaurant was not swamped with customers considering the occasion but it seemed that the kitchen staff was a little on the light side. I blame Covid as so many restaurants are struggling to find staff to meet the growing demand. This little gem, hidden away in a strip mall in Manassas Park, VA, is far better than it’s location would indicate. We will return for another go and would recommend you do the same.

    Tortino Mare is a hidden jewel in Manassas! My husband ordered the lamb shank and lobster bisque and both of these dishes were divine. I ordered the salmon and Caesar salad which were quite good. The service was impeccable and the Italian restaurant had wonderful ambiance.

    1st and last visit. Great reviews, however our experience was not good. We both had ravioli that were flat mine was lamb covered in a tangy sauce, nothing special. My wife had the special lobster ravioli. Again flat and pureed filling, not pieces of lobster, covered in a stinky fishy unpleasant sauce. They did remove it from the check but it was far from a good experience.

    Overall an outstanding experience. The atmosphere is great and the food was better than five star. But, the service was very slow and the waitstaff, while pleasant was non existent for long periods of time. There was a note on the door that they are looking to hire, as it seems many restaurants are short handed these days. So we’ll give a pass on the slow service because everything else was outstanding.

    Enjoyed our meals tonight. We each had 4 different pasta meals, fettuccine Alfredo de gambero, tagliatelle bolognese, Nicolini raviolis and pasta with chicken and cream sauce which were all delicious. The pasta is homemade and very good. The focaccia bread was great too! The Caesar salad was a large portion and shareable too. Nice quiet atmosphere and attentive waitress. Excellent cocktails!

    First time visiting this Italian restaurant and could not have been happier with our find. We would not have expected this quality in the middle of Manassas Park in a small strip of buildings. Don’t let that deter you though because every dish was delicious and well presented by smiling and attentive staff. We will definitely be going back!

    I was there last night...on a Saturday. Had reservations at 8 PM. There was only a couple of other tables occupied! Felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. This is in a little retail center in the middle of a residential neighborhood. If it was on a main road, I think it would be packed. Great food and drinks and I think this is a little gem of a restaurant. You should definitely try it. I will definitely return.

    My husband and I went on a lunch date together. We were the only patrons there. We had a really good time reminiscing about our lives together, and evaluating the wine, mixed drinks and judging the food. Genesis was great and the food was good, although they could tailor back how intense the chicken stock flavor (or beef?) is with the braised short rib risotto. My ravioli (Fresh jumbo lump crab meat, ravioli, cherry tomato, and lobster bisque sauce) was good too. I enjoyed how they kinda burst in my mouth. I know, kinda weird but to each its own. I enjoyed the pino noir more than the Cabernet but don’t get the Manhattan, it wasn’t well put together.

    We started with the Portabella mushroom appetizer which was a beautiful presentation in addition to being very, very tasty! I had the crabmeat ravioli with the lobster bisque and tomato sauce,,,it was exquisite! My wife had the salmon in sambuca (sp) sauce with veggies and potatoes she adored it,,,my taste agreed it was also wonderful. We shared a dessert, a cherry/chocolate mousse filled dome of hard dark chocolate set on a chocolate macaron...all surrounded by fruit puree ,,,,It was "To die for!" We plan on going back soon!!!

    I'm so glad Tortino Mare was able to weather the pandemic. It's such a great restaurant. We went on a Tuesday evening and it was a pretty quiet place with only a few tables occupied, so it was very quiet. But the food was excellent, as always. Grilled Caesar Salad and Burrata appetizers were excellent, as were the Veal Marsala and Mushroom Ravioli. Dessert was Ricotta Cheesecake and Semifredo. All wonderful.

    We’ve discovered this gem through word of mouth. Amazing homemade pasta- the lobster ravioli is my favorite. We’ve been here for special occasions- about 7 times. The pizza rivals what we are in Florence, Italy. The owner is a chef who studied in Italy (read about him in the local paper). The semifredo (frozen dessert) is to die for! You don’t have to go to DC to have quality food. You won’t be disappointed!
