We made reservations at Pomona in Colborne quite a while ago for my dad's birthday, and I can honestly say the entire experience was wonderful from start to finish.
We had family drive in from Barrie and Toronto to celebrate with him, so this was a pretty special evening for all of us. From the initial reservation booking, the service was incredible. The team was so accommodating with children and allergies, and everyone was incredibly kind and welcoming.
As someone who really loves food, I especially appreciated how knowledgeable the staff were about the menu. They took the time to explain why certain dishes are specific to particular regions of Italy, which I absolutely loved. It made the meal feel like more than just dinner.
We started with the warm olives and burrata, both of which were fantastic. Around the table we had the tagliatelle, chicken Marsala, gnocchi, tenderloin, and pasta for the little ones. Everything was thoroughly enjoyed. My nephew specifically said the chicken Marsala was delicious, and I can confirm the gnocchi and tenderloin got equally enthusiastic reviews.
I had the crespelle, and it was absolutely delicious. It was one of those meals where you're already thinking about it again before you've even finished eating.
Unfortunately, we somehow managed to eat our way through the entire meal and left absolutely no room for dessert. Clearly, we'll just have to come back.
A huge thank you to the entire team at Pomona for making my dad's birthday such a memorable evening. We are incredibly grateful for the care, hospitality, and beautiful food. We will absolutely be back! read more
