Glad that Tomatina has reopened after its recent renovation. We had a fantastic meal--the food was so fresh and delicious, and the service attentive and welcoming. They were very accommodating with our request to make a few dishes vegetarian and tailored the order to our liking. The beverage were chilled and refreshing. It's always good to dine at Tomatina. read more

My partner and I ordered two custom pastas and the garlic rolls for takeaway. Everything was delicious! The kitchen even accommodated our request for extra capers. The garlic rolls with house ranch are a must. We will be ordering again! read more

Tomatina - Pasta and Sauce and Tomatina's Housemade Garlic Rolls - Pizza Near Me - Santa Rosa, California

I was not expecting much from a Tomatina chain restaurant, but was actually very pleased with the quality of the food. We had a group of 6 for a very early dinner. To begin with we ordered drinks off the Happy Hour menu and the calamari and the chicken wings for appetizers off of the Happy Hour menu as well. Both apps were excellent. The chicken wings were very crispy and perfectly cooked and came with a garlic ranch dressing and nice and crunch carrots and celery. The calamari was crispy and came with four different sauces, which were very good. Each of our group ordered a different entree. I ordered the chicken parmesan. It was two medium-sized pieces of chicken, perfectly pounded, with a crispy breading and sauteed with melted cheese on top. It had a side of spaghetti noodles and sauteed garlic spinach. Very, very good. My BF had the spaghetti and meatballs. He was very happy with his dish. Both dishes were good sized too. My mother had the baked penne bolognese and she loved it. It was huge and was able to take some home. The other two in our group had the chicken marsala and a shitake and sausage pizza. Both were very happy with their dishes. Our server was an Indian gal, who was very friendly and provided excellent customer service. We always ask to have each course spaced out. It is a major pet peeve of mine if I'm eating my pre-dinner salad and my entree comes out while I'm still eating it. And that's not even at lower end restaurants, but at nicer restaurants too. They just don't care, they just want you out of there so they can serve the next table. Of course, we asked our server for the same here, to please not bring each course until we've finished the previous course. And was sooo happy when that is exactly what she did. It all has to do with the server and when she turns the order into the kitchen. She was excellent. We will be coming back for sure. read more

Located in Montgomery Village in front of the road. Tomatina provides plenty of parking, either on the front or the back. I went on a random weekday and ordered online. They had my food ready pretty quickly. I went inside to pay and using their online service is pretty convenient. I ordered the pasta trio, and it was perfectly cooked. However, the last time I ordered it, the lasagna was missing): but I think it might have been a rush error. I have ordered it other times and it has always come out perfect but this time it was missing something. Nevertheless, the food was still really good. Overall, a place I would get good food at again. read more

Tomatina - Pasta Trio - Pizza Near Me - Santa Rosa, California

The experience felt off right from the start. The host seemed awkward, and our server wasn't much better. One person at our table was pretty much ignored, and another was made to feel uncomfortable just for asking questions about a dish. The server even assumed we wanted chicken, then acted annoyed when we corrected him, saying he'd have to "start all over" in the system. The food was not great. The garlic bread was especially bad, served halfway through dinner, sitting in a bowl FULL of still-boiling oil. Overall, we'll pass on coming back and would not recommend. read more

Food - I enjoyed the apple salad. It was the perfect portion for myself. I loved the slices of apple and the lite dressing. The baked walnuts were a wonderful addition to the salad. It gave it that extra crunch that was so satisfying. Ambiance - it was Tuesday evening so seemed a little quiet but that was nice. I could actually have a nice conversation without having to climb over the table to listen. Service - when we first arrived we had to wait for the host to come. Then we waited for quite some time before anyone came over. Finally though the young lady that did serve us was so pleasant and great personality. She was attentive and accommodating. She made up for the lack of service in the beginning. read more

Tomatina - Apple salad - Pizza Near Me - Santa Rosa, California

If you're going to come here come for happy hour! The appetizers are worth it in my opinion. I really enjoyed the calamari and the bruschetta. I ordered the Alfredo fettuccini with shrimp and it had minimal sauce to be honest and had minimal taste. It wasn't the worst or the best but I wouldn't order again. The service was not that great. My friend ordered the caprese salad and then she didn't realize it came with only cheese and asked the server about it and he told her that's the dish and proceeded to give us the menu to show us he wasn't lying. More than half the time our server was ignoring us. He would avoid our table for whatever reason. When I tried to ask for dessert he pretended he didn't hear me as he was rushing back and forth. He did however tell us he was in a hurry to get home because he had gifts to open.... We ended up not getting dessert and just leaving. Overall I was not impressed. Appetizers definitely worth it! Actual entrees and service not so much. Maybe we just got a bad server who knows. ‍ read more

Came here with a fairly large group of people. Our server was really good, answered all our questions and was very attentive throughout the meal. My wife had the Baked Penne Bolognese of which I had a handful of bites and we both agreed was really good. I had the sand dabs which were on special that evening, they were extremely good and they give you a healthy portion. Everyone in the group agreed that the garlic rolls were delicious. read more

We have been to Tomatina multiple times in the past year. We like the ambience, menu variety which includes vegetarian options, prompt service. They even have a happy hour menu. Try their pizza, bruschetta and famous garlic knots. read more

This is a chain restaurant, and food is pretty consistent. It's not amazing food, but it's not bad! I got the lemon chicken entree, but I substituted the pasta for the mista salad! The lemon chicken is breaded with red spices, and served with a lemon wedge. I would order it again! And I love the mista salad! The service was pretty good too, I came at lunch and they were not too busy. I jumped on the Montgomery Village WiFi after lunch and finished up working. read more

Tomatina - Mixta Salad and lemon chicken (no pasta-sub the salad) - Pizza Near Me - Santa Rosa, California

I've ordered delivery from Tomatina a couple of times and have been very satisfied. I ordered the Chicken Parmesan and the Shrimp Pomodoro, both of which were tasty. Although Chicken Parmesan is historically a favorite dish of mine, the Shrimp Pomodoro stood out as the more memorable dish. We dined in on a Sunday afternoon during Restaurant Week for their three-course lunch menu. The restaurant was fairly empty; maybe one or two other tables were occupied, yet the welcoming service was lukewarm, and we had to request the Restaurant Week menu specifically. The ambiance was casual and family-friendly, with a balance between a cozy neighborhood Italian spot and a polished chain restaurant. While our server was kind and attentive, the pacing was off--our salads and pastas arrived simultaneously, making the meal feel very rushed. Instead of enjoying each course at a comfortable pace, we found ourselves juggling bites, trying to finish our salads before they wilted and our pasta before it cooled. Aside from that, the food and cocktails were excellent. The basil lime cocktail is a new favorite of mine--light, refreshing, and well-balanced. I could easily eat the Mixta Salad every day; it was that good. When deciding between pasta with meat or the Portobello Fettuccine, I'm glad I chose the latter because it was fantastic, and I didn't miss the meat one bit. The Penne Bolognese delivered as well. It was meaty, had tons of cheese, and was flavorful. The tiramisu didn't disappoint, either. As for the garlic rolls, I'm not sure it was worth ordering. It was pretty dry and hard to eat on its own, though the generous portions of marinara and ranch helped make up for it. Overall, it was a decent experience. Although there are better Italian restaurants in the area, I was pleased with what I ordered and will likely return. read more

I had a better experience this time here. I was at a luncheon with 20 people and I really appreciated that you can order & pay through your phone. That works nicely with a large party. The service was good. I enjoyed the polenta & a Mediterranean salad. The one very confusing part was the variety of menus. It took awhile to figure out what was actually being served at lunch. I think next I'll try their happy hour as the prices are quite reasonable. read more

Tomatina - The polenta was quite tasty - I liked the crispy crust. - Pizza Near Me - Santa Rosa, California

I decided to have my 70th birthday party at this lovely restaurant. I had 20 people and they took the reservation without any down payment. I really appreciated that all they said was to tell them if it changed. The room was nice and cozy and we had a nice long table so we could all set. The staff was absolutely wonderful. They took our orders and brought us our food fairly quickly, considering there are so many of us. I had a salad that had mixed greens, gorgonzola, pickled red onions, candied walnuts, dried cranberries and honey mustard vinaigrette. It was delish I got the half order and was able to take some home. There was so much. The garlic rolls were very tasty also. My friends all had different dishes and everybody. I mean everybody loved what they got. I will definitely be going back to this place I had a great birthday and I want to thank them for that. read more

I don't leave bad reviews lightly. But this was just really, really bad. Sat down and ordered two Lagunitas IPAs. The garlic bread rolls were raw in the middle. The white sauce base soup was horrible. Wife sent it back for minestrone. That wasn't much better. My lasagna came out and the red sauce was just, sweet. Like they used sugar when they should have used garlic pepper. We only ate a few bites of anything. Waiting for the check, I started to notice that my sinuses were completely closing up. The menu said IPA, but they poured "Little Something". Not an IPA. Little Something is a wheat based beer. Which causes many, including myself, pretty bad allergic reactions. It was the only "Italian" place open on a Monday night, but I'll never make that mistake again. read more

Stopped by Tomatina for Restaurant Week and we also happened to stop by just in time for Happy Hour. The service here was amazing, our server was so sweet and helpful! I highly recommend coming for their Happy Hour if you're not looking for too big of a meal. We ordered the Calamari, Meatballs, Bruschetta, and mini pizza! It was SO GOOD. Perfect portions. Everything was savory and had so much flavor. It was honestly better than we expected. As for the main meal we got garlic rolls, roasted salmon, and a tiramisu to go. The garlic rolls were buttery and savory. The roasted salmon however was AMAZING. I will go back just for that. The salmon was cooked perfectly with crispy edges. I didn't know it came with pasta so that was a nice surprise! It paired perfectly with the salmon and the sauce. Everything about our experience here was great. The food and the service were more than I expected. Will definitely be coming here again! read more

Staff was unprofessional, we were not greeted/welcomed in or seated even though staff on the floor looked at us as we walked in. Hostess scratched herself under her shirt as she approached us and grabbed menus with the same hand. Waiter asked for our order then proceeded to cut us off mid sentence which felt very rude. Food-wise, it was not good either, bread rolls were undercooked and very gummy in the middle while still being hard on the outside. Chicken wings were ordered were very dry and chewy which made us feel as if they had been sitting out a while. The Fettuccine Alfredo had little sauce and even less flavor. The chicken in the pasta was dry and had little flavor. The Strawberry lemonade was the only good part of the meal. Honestly, I should've just left before we were even seated. read more

Wowww! This place is amazing! From top to bottom. Their food quality is delightful, the happy hour menu is the cherry on top! Full bar of cocktail drinks and Italian cuisine at its finest. Brick oven pizza is my favorite! Family-friendly restaurant. The service was wonderful, can't wait to bring the whole family back for dinner. Thank you! read more

Went back with relatives 2 nights later. Service again was slow, with no condiments on the table like Parmesan cheese, peppers, salt, pepper, olive oil or spices. We did order the bread as an appetizer, and they bake it fresh to it took over 20 minutes to reach us. In fact from where I was seated, I could see our dinners waiting under the lamps because they had once again bunched up the order rather than spacing it out. By request I asked to be allowed to eat the appetizers we ordered before they brought us our dinners - and so the dinner sat until we were done. It's very basic folks at Tomatina - space the meal for your customers. If they ordered appetizers then hold off on submitting their meal order. Sheesh. You'd think it was rocket science, lol. But we were there as a couple on Tuesday night, then returned Thursday with relatives, and it was the same.... That said, the veggie pizza plus pepperoni was delicious, as was my spaghetti and meatballs, as was another's 3 part sampler of pasta/pesto, lasagna, and fettuccine alfredo. Great food - basic condiments must be asked for, basic complimentary bread or bread/oil not there, and drinks and water were allowed to run dry multiple times before we could flag someone down to notice we were needed water and tea and etc. read more

We had a quick trip with some friends of ours for work. We decided to stop here for dinner. We ordered for appetizers the Parmesan bread and the garlic rolls. Both were stellar! My friends ordered a pizza and chicken parm, they loved it! My husband ordered a special for October which was chicken prosciutto rigatoni, he was in heaven. I ordered the lemon chicken that came with Alfredo pasta (I opted to leave out the tomatoes/peas). It was literally one of the best chickens I've ever had, the flavor was insane. Pasta was good too, only thing I wish is that the Alfredo was thicker, it was a little too thin and didn't stick to the pasta well. However it tasted great! We also got the apple crisp dessert and that was awesome too! Service was good and ambiance was peaceful! If we ever come back to Santa Rosa we will be back! read more

We had a great experience at Tomatina! The entrance is on the far right of the building and when we walked in there wasn't that many people dining in at the time so we were sat right away. I ordered the Cucumber Cooler and the Pasta and Sauce with penne, marinara and sausage. All very delicious! They are definitely bigger portions of food which is nice. read more

I really wanted to like this place, walking up the aroma smelled amazing. Then we walked in, the place was pretty dead yet waited a good five minutes to be sat. Our server was not nice at all very short and no good customer service at all. The only staff member who said thank you or even asked if my water needed a refill was from what I would assume was the bus boy. The rest of the staff I interacted with also had the same they didn't want to be at work or bothered attitude. For an app got the meatballs came with some really good bread. After the app I thought the food would take over for the poor service. Then came the main dish. Detroit style pizza. Honestly I'm not trying to be mean but I've had better Detroit style from little ceasers. Greasy in the middle and whatever topping was put on top was very off putting. Anyone from the Midwest would have stopped after the first slice I stopped after two. Not because I was full but just couldn't bring myself to another bite. I do not recommend coming here read more

Well, better than 2 years ago on quantity. So good! Thank you! We used to frequently order the family meals with one or two entrees and, in 2023, one dish was so small and just not enough to feed our family. Tonite, perfect! I definitely expect to get what I pay for with respect to increasing prices. I mean, if you only get one entree of fettuccine and chicken of which is minimal, c'mon! I'm used to the minimal amount of chicken. The flavor and sauce was so good tonite. I'm a happy customer! Their Caesar salad is so good. Lettuce was so fresh tonite. Yummo!!! Garlic rolls were good as well! Keep it up guys! read more

Went to Tomatina prior to going to a concert last night, six of us in our group. We've tried Tomatina in the past and did not have a memorable experience, so went in to this a bit apprehensive. I believe they changed their POS from the last time, kinda threw our group off a bit. Using the QR code technology, thankfully the wait staff allowed some in our group to go the old fashioned way, with paper menus and live ordering. That was a relief. We got various items at our table. I went with the fettuccini Alfredo and it was stellar, with penne, there was option to add shrimp or chicken, but just went with the straight past. I'd go back just for that. My wife loved her calzone. Our friends got a trio pasta plate that they devoured and said was very good. A great experience across the board. read more

Really homey and well-prepared food. EXCEPTIONAL value! With food prices so high, this is the one place that still feels like a good deal.

My daughter and myself has have been to Tomatina's three times in the last couple months because they have a great happy hour menu with mini pizzas and salad. We have two mini pizzas. She's a vegetarian and I'm not.The first two times were great, everything was wonderful and we went away very satisfied. The waiter was very attentive along with others that work there. We decided to go there for dinner on Wednesday night got there about 8 o'clock at night and was sat down promptly. Ordered large large chopped salad and a bowl of leek potato soup.For dinner most Italian restaurants offer bread right away while you wait for your meal.But no mention of bread so I asked and they brought bread and was very pleased with it but wasn't very impressed that they didn't offer.The waiter said they made it there and it was delicious.The soup and salad was brought out,the salad was delicious as usual but the soup was unbelievably watery and tasteless with 4 pieces of leaks 5 little pieces of Italian sausage and basically tasteless watery broth.we both took one sip and couldn't believe they would ever serve such a ridicules mess. I called the waiter over told him the problem as he picked up the bowl it was just like picking up a bowl of water,as he almost spilled it.He said that he would talk to whom ever that made it the next day because they had already went home for the evening.The food is mostly great but the service needs to be improved by offering the same services as other Italian restaurants.Get bread out right away to start dining and relaxing while your food is being prepared.One thing to mention was the waiter wanted to first sat us with 3 other tables to where it was very noisy while plenty of room elsewhere was available so I asked to be seated differently and was granted a much nicer area.It seemed like a confusing evening but hopefully the next time will be better. read more

wow, I was so surprised by how delicious tomatina is! I just went for the first time for restaurant week, and it also happened to be happy hour, so we also tried all the food on happy hour. The calamari is one of the best I've ever tasted! We also got the mama meatballs, and it definitely was the most delicious meatball I've ever eaten! I'm not even a meatball person, but I would get this every time. That's how good it is. We also got the personal pizza, and the fresh mozzarella was perfectly melted and soft with a perfectly cooked dough to go with it. the salmon pasta was also delicious. The bruschetta is also a must get! Our server was so sweet and took such good care of us! All our food came so quickly and was still hot when we got it all! We will definitely be back! read more

We had a catered lunch from a medical company who would love to persuade the facility to purchase medical supplies from them. As a courtesy they always provide the staff with lunch.

I was totally satisfied everything was delicious. We appreciated the catheter company for coming and the catering. read more

We started with bruschetta, which was crisp and flavorful, and the main courses were simply outstanding. I ordered the fettuccine Alfredo with truffle oil - it was rich, creamy, and perfectly cooked. My partner had the wood-fired Margherita pizza, and it was one of the best we've ever had - thin, crispy crust and fresh mozzarella that melted beautifully. Aneri, the new manager was a superb hostess and took care of our needs in very professional manner. Definitely,we will be coming back. read more

Came here expecting to be blown away after seeing all the great reviews but we left underwhelmed. To begin, the food was lacking flavor. I started with a Caesar salad and it just tasted like lettuce. The dressing was watery, and it lacked seasoning. For the main meals, we all got pastas. I got the baked bolognese and when I tasted it, it had absolutely zero seasoning. My wife got the pasta trio and the only thing that had any flavor was the lasagna. I hate asking for salt and pepper at a restaurant. I find it insulting to the chef/cook. I also feel a good chef/cook will season the food properly. This is one of the only times I've ever had to ask for salt. The sauce was watered down and thin and the flavor was much like the water like consistency. It was just lacking all flavor. All of the pasta we had were lacking seasoning. The only one of our party that had good tasting food was our youngest son who ordered a cheese pizza from the kids menu. The worst part of our experience was the smell. Someone used the bathroom and the entire dinning room smelled like a dirty port-a-potty. Our server said it was a big problem with people coming in that are walking around Montgomery village and just going into the restroom. Also, that the door dash drivers will come in and go use the bathroom. It was a horrible thing to have to sit through and eat while smelling someone's bathroom blowup. To sum it up, we weren't very impressed. The service wasn't the best and the food was not worth the money. I don't think I will return here. read more

Not sure why this place is so lowly rated but we had a fabulous happy hour there and honestly haven't seen such a great happy hour menu since covid began. Goes until 7pm and everything is only $7! Got two pizzas and incredible bruschetta all for a total bill of $22. Fast food is more expensive! Service was excellent, our waitress was so sweet. Such a nice casual ambiance to the place too. Hard to find casual Italian here in Sonoma county and so glad I gave Tomatina a try! read more

I have never eaten at Tomatina. We arrived at 630 pm on a Saturday night and there were plenty of seats available. We were a party of six and the Host allowed us to sit anywhere, There is a place card on the table where you can scan a QR code and look at the menu. I am used to those now so I could figure that out. It also says you can order and pay with the QR code. I could not figure that out, I am too old. The waitress took a little time to arrive at our table but once there, she was great at taking our drink order and providing a couple of menus for us to peruse. Throughout the night, the server, Aneri, was great. Two couples ordered through Aneri and one ordered through the App. My wife and I ordered a large Mixta salad with mixed greens, gorgonzola, pickled red onions, candied walnuts, dried cranberries and honey mustard vinaigrette. It was only $2 more than the standard salad. It was HUGE. We shared it with the other members of our group even though two others had ordered the standard salad. It was very fresh and tasted great! We all loved the salad. (The only thing that could have made it a more enjoyable experience is fresh bread as provided at many Italian restaurants.) We then ordered a special trio of pasta, Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo, Lasagna and rigatoni pesto. The Fettuccine Alfredo was very good although I didn't get any chicken until the last bite, I enjoyed the flavor. The pesto was good and the Lasagna was very good as well. I would order any of the three by themselves but I would order Lasagna first, Alfredo second and lastly the Pesto. For us, splitting the pasta and salad worked out great. I am not much for splitting plates but we were going to an 80's band performance and did not want to be full. We did not succeed. We were all full. Others in our group ordered various kinds of pasta and a Calzone and all said they were great. We ended up ordering an Apple crisp to finish off the evening and it was great as well. Nice and hot apple crisp with a toasted oat topping, caramel sauce, and whipped cream. We all shared a couple of servings and it was the perfect end to the dining experience. I would certainly be back to try out some other menu items. Sorry, I did not take any pictures, we were with friends and were having a great time and enjoying our food and did not think of it until I looked down at my clean plate. read more

Plain and simple: Pretty great food but very mediocre service. We were in town and wanted Italian. It was the day after Christmas so there was a lot of paces closed. We really wanted to love this place because it seemed like they may have had a hard time during COVID. For those of you who are not sure, here was our experience: The outside of the restaurant looks very appealing. Walking into the restaurant, it did have a chain field to it. They offered a order on app service, but there was a waiter there if we preferred to order that way. It did make it feel a little impersonal and it would have been nice to have a real menu to order off of. We ordered the fettuccine Alfredo with chicken. It was good but not worth $20 in our opinion. We also ordered two large pizzas. Which where delicious and very LARGE. We ordered two thinking we would have a bit to take home - we had about two more meals worth! Good home made ranch and great garlic bread. The service was not great. Because people are able to order without the waiter, it seemed like the staff was not fully used to waiting on the customers like a traditional restaurant. We didn't get plates when we were served our pizza and had to ask a few times for ranch. I would also recommend that salt and pepper be placed on the tables. With the prices at this restaurant, I think a great waiter would have made us feel better about spending so much. read more

My last experience here was many years ago and it was not so great, but we decided to try again. The service was okay, but refills on drinks were not offered once, likely due to the amount of other issues. They were out of shrimp, pesto, and Kalamata olives. 3/5 of us that ordered had to make alternate choices after placing the order. We ordered the Brussel sprout appetizer, but it didn't ever come. My son and I both settled for Spaghetti Alfredo after learning that they were out of pesto. His was super salty, mine was not. There was next to no sauce on either of them, but they brought additional sides of Alfredo upon our request, which was decent. The kids spaghetti and meatballs was extremely salty, the saltiest of all of the dishes. The other two dishes we ordered were problematic as well, but it wasn't worth complaining any more. The Mediterranean salad was extremely overdressed and came with black olives instead of Kalamata. asked if they had any Kalamata olives and the server brought another side of black olives. I couldn't finish the oil rig they called a salad. The manager eventually came over to inform us that the vendor keeps sending the wrong olives and apologized for the issues. The meal service was entertaining at the least as we found some humor in the fact that they were out of so much and had so many issues. The manager did give us a 25% discount without us even asking, which was appreciated. We got the "100% SALTY" discount as well as the "Out of Pesto Inconvenience" discount, which were certainly the highlights of the meal ticket. I don't think we will be returning. It is 6 years since our last visit and it's still the same runaround. If you are out of menu items, or know you just don't have them, you should seriously change the menu. I hope something decent takes their place eventually. read more

I had been to Tomatina many times when I lived in Walnut Creek and wanted to try this location since the other was always delicious. Bad idea! To start the garlic rolls were nasty, dripping in oil with not a lot of garlic. The meat lasagne was one of my favorites but here all I tasted was clumpy tomatoes, I needed a microscope to see the two tiny pieces of sausage in the dish. My husband got the chicken marsala which was just as bad. Overpowering garlic on the chicken, no mushrooms, average marsala. This place crushed my memories of the Tomatna I used to enjoy. read more
