Came here on a Friday evening at 5:30PM with Pomodoro being empty. The ambience is quite nice if you dont mind the soapy smell alongside the head beams from vehicles exiting the lot outside hitting you if youre sitting by the window. The waiter was unable to strongly recommend anything, and no one approached me throughout dinner to ask how was the food. The following is personal preference: The complimentary bread was a really nice touch and the presentation of everything was dazzling for a lack of a better word. I didnt enjoy the gnocchi because it had too much mushroom, but that doesnt mean others wont. Im unable to strongly recommend Pomodoro though because of the ambience and smell, and I didnt enjoy myself, but do read other reviews before making a decision, as this is just mine.

These guys are AMAZING. Last night (11 Ap 15) they opened up the whole restaurant for my fiance and I. Whenever we go, were frequently the only patrons in the restaurant and we get completely private service (thats a hostess, waitress, water-person, chef, sous chef all to yourself). Needless to say, the service was excellent, and personal; we met the chef (who was charming, professional, and friendly, like the rest of his staff). They have outstanding and interesting food, and a romantic ambiance. Pomodoro is an absolute favorite in Seattle! Instead of going to a crowded, noisy Italian place, class-it-up with the romantic, private, Spanish-Italian Pomodoro.

We were here on a Saturday night for the first time and we loved it. It was a cozy, intimate atmosphere, lovely ambiance. The wine was great, the tapas was yummy and the pasta was some of the best I have ever had. The service was amazing, our server was friendly and had a delightful sense of humor and we felt very well taken care of. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for a nice romantic meal with a loved one or as a quiet place to go with a couple friends. 5 stars!!!

It is really hard to book this place online. Then I found it is way more easier to book by phone directly. With a really high expectation, this place did not let me down! The chef was nice. He sent every table several free dishes, which are sweet. I love the signature lasagna! With the spinach pasta inside, it was really soft and tasty. The day when I dined in, it did not have Uni pasta. I would definitely try this dish next time!

This is more of a Southern European dining experience, with delicious Italianate pastas and a smattering of Spanish tapas and exquisite paella. A unique and delightful experience where the owner is always at hand and often in the kitchen, and the staff are knowledgeable and attentive. And if youre out late, youre in luck! This is definitely the best dining available after 10:00pm in Seattle.

I had some of the best Italian cuisine in my life last night at Pomodoro. Fantastic wines! Even better pastas. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone. We were personally served by the owner of the restaurant last night. Great guy! Very personal service by the staff. Omg.. Just thinking about the hummus ravioli makes me want to go back right now.

I was a little skeptical walking into the place. The outside doesnt look like much, but once you get inside the decor is nice and has a good Mediterranean feel. The food was excellent, service was very good. The menu is a good mix of traditional Italian and Spanish dishes, along with good descriptions for those not familiar with the cuisine.

Chef Antolin Blanco has given lovers of Spanish and Itlalian food a surefire hit for many years. Though he was on a well-deserved vacation, his staff rocked the Gambas al Ajillo. The restaurant is comfortable and stays open until midnight on weekends to better enjoy a thimbleful of grappa. The service is without fault.

What a gem! My extended family is from southern Italy and this place is legit. Come and eat all the pasta and enjoy Italian wines with perfect service. We called Friday for a Saturday reservation for 8 people and they were very accommodating. Even with a spaghetti-only-three-year-old in tow. Highly recommend!

Amazing! Love the calming atmosphere. I am gluten free as is my girlfriend and we had the fettuccine it was simply the yummiest dish I have ever experienced with a gluten free pasta! We will be back for sure I am so excited to have an Italian restaurant that is gluten free close to home!

Rather delicious meals! Manicotti is my regular dish and this definitely made the top 10! Even the traditional spaghetti had its own unique touch with house made sauce that made it stand out from an ordinary dish. This is not a cheap restaurant but definitely worth the costs.

One of my favorites. Such a gem. The owner (chef) is so nice and will come talk to you. Great calm ambiance. A place you stay for a couple hours. Amazing food for the price: everything is delicious as well as beautifully presented. Real food.

Being a gluten free person, we first discovered Pomodoro a few years back during the holiday season. I enjoyed their fettuccine and yet again it was simply delicious. We will be back. Nice relaxing environment and friendly service.

Great food and service. Down-to-earth, romantic setting. Good wine selection. Ive been here many times and am always happy with my meal. Nice selection of both Italian and Spanish dishes -- and they are open late-night!

Hands-down best authentic Italian restaurant around. The owner and all his staff are amazing, and the pasta is cooked al dente everytime. The habanero puree they make elevates their already-heavenly plates!

Fantastic food, and incredible service. A large party of 14, and the wait staff was very good about putting up with our noise and even brought out complementary schnapps for the table.

When you get inside, you can smell the goodness of their dishes. And their foods were good. Even though the waiting was not too quick but its all worth it.

Tasty Tiramisu. It was fresh (not frozen and reheated) like some restaurants. The cream was light on the tongue, and just perfect on the coffee dust.
