We made reservations Saturday night. They were confirmed. We showed up on time and were greeted by the nicest girl. Offered a choice of seating. We chose bistro table in the bar. Our waitress greeted us and walked us through the menu. AMAZING!!! Both these women were friendly, knowledgeable and pleasant. Food was outstanding! Octopus appetizer. Great Cesar salad, Cippinio, read more

We were seated quickly without reservations. We called ahead and they had a table set inside for us when we arrived. We requested outside and it was not a problem. Our server was great. I wish I could remember his name so I could give a shout out to him. Our food was very good. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is I thought the pasta was a little thick. read more

We've heard the sung praises from locals, so we took our family to Tormé last night for our younger son's birthday last night. We loved the cozy cottage ambiance and every dish was made in-house with the freshest ingredients. We were impressed with the sauces in all our dishes as well as the flavor and consistency of the homemade pastas. Our waitress was kind and very attentive. We have heard that the restaurant will be up for sale soon, so we will try to return another time before they close. Thank you for a great experience, Tormé. read more

For the food I would give 5 stars, excellent food, nice presentation. Absolutely cute ambiance inside and a very nice patio. We ate outside. Our drinks and starters, a salad for me came quick. Unfortunately it took about 50 minutes to get our main courses. The service was polite and attentive. They need longer hours of operation and need to fix Maps that shows them open on days they are closed. They make their own fresh pasta. But I was surprised on the long wait as the owner also owned another of our favorite eating establishments. I will give them another try though hoping for better results. read more

First time at this quaint restaurant inside of a creekside home. Both the service and atmosphere were great as was there sister restaurant I ate at earlier in the week. However, the entree I had (reverse surf and turf) was served with stone cold, overcooked presliced beef and underdone stuffed tiger shrimp lacking in flavor. Truly disappointing. read more

Torme is tucked away from most other restaurants so it is a chosen destination for a meal. We celebrated my husband's birthday. He was pleased with everything. They bring a starter plate of warm herb bread which had we known we probably would've skipped the Burrata (which also had bread). However, they were different and delicious and it was nice to have the variety. Our salads were fresh and tasty. Each entree had delicious seasoning and flavor. Our server, Isaac, was friendly. The only issue I had was we were seated at a high top and for the length of our meal the seats became uncomfortable for my legs. I would've preferred a regular table. Now I know for a future visit. And because there were several choices that interested us, we will be back. The outside seating area is currently covered by a tent. We were inside so I can only assume there are heaters. They did seat a table out there while we were dining. read more

Went to this restaurant a few days ago with friends to celebrate a birthday. Didn't know what to expect but as soon as we entered the establishment I was impressed with the ambiance. It was such a cute and quaint set up with dining tables scatted throughout what looked to be a house converted to a restaurant. Staff greeted us and were warm and friendly. Little did I know they also had outdoor seating in a really nice patio with lots of plants and umbrellas over the tables. That night we had a few monsoon showers but those umbrellas kept us dry. The menu was impressive and I really loved the food which was amazing! Overall, this restaurant experience has been one of my favorite in the area. read more

Made reservations for a nice evening out. The service was very professional. Small and intimate dining area. The food looked and tasted wonderful. Our dinner was not rushed either. It was a very pleasant evening. Definitely recommend for a relaxing evening of great food. read more

Everything was perfect!! Ambiance, service and food! Pricey but so worth it!!! Ben was an amazing server!

Cindy is a pro - super thorough, attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. The type of service that genuinely brings you back even regardless of the food. Food & drink was amazing too - happy happy! As an industry worker ... just makes me feel proud! read more

I haven't had steak tartar since we left Geneva. The meat needs to be perfect to be safe. This restaurant filled the bill totally. As a side benefit, I had a short conversation with our waiter in German which just added to the benefit. read more

"In response to the owner's comment..." As both a business owner and a customer, I've learned the importance of humility, accepting constructive criticism, and responding in a customer service-oriented manner. One would think that after 25 years; professionalism would be a trait well-developed. Yet your defensive, often lengthy responses to negative reviews suggest otherwise. Rather than addressing concerns thoughtfully, you respond with diatribes that come across as arrogant and dismissive. This pattern of behavior is evident to anyone reviewing your responses. It doesn't matter how long you've been in business -- no one knows everything, and in the service industry, the customer's experience should always be the priority. A seasoned restaurateur understands that "the customer is always right" isn't a literal rule, but a mindset: a commitment to creating memorable, positive experiences- because happy customers lead to repeat business, good reviews, referrals, and long-term success. Instead, your responses seem rooted in the belief that after 25 years, there's nothing left to learn -- a dangerous mentality for any business owner. Whether I was a food critic or simply a customer having a difficult day, your job remains the same: to deliver an experience that leaves the customer feeling valued. And when that doesn't happen, your response afterward becomes just as important as the initial service. In the future, consider treating negative feedback as an opportunity to improve, not as a personal attack. Asking to change the type of pasta is an incredibly common and reasonable request in most established restaurants, especially when the dish isn't pre-prepped. Your kitchen's small size isn't a valid excuse for denying a simple substitution -- it instead raises questions about your staff's ability to manage minor requests. You cited a "what if" scenario about a six-top table requesting changes during a rush. But what if those six guests had food allergies? Dietary restrictions? Or even personal sensory issues -- such as an aversion to certain food textures? Your assumptions also ignored practical realities: I wear glasses but often leave them behind when dining out. With your restaurant's low lighting and no clear notation on the menu, I could not easily read the fine print regarding substitutions. The sever could have easily replied, " Unfortunately, we do not do substitutions as it is listed here on the menu, I apologize." Furthermore, you misquoted me. I never threatened a bad review if I didn't get what I wanted. Your condescending tone, mischaracterization of my comments, and overall dismissiveness devalue the feedback and alienate the very customers who could help you grow --- There's a lot to be said for true servitude. You can serve the worst meal, but with genuine hospitality and care, customers will often leave feeling valued -- and that experience will matter far more than the food itself. We ultimately decided to leave because I had been set on ordering the Cioppino -- a dish close to my heart, given my family's lineage and having lived in Northern California, where the recipe originated. read more

For starters, the ambiance and setting of this restaurant is absolutely lovely. It's such a homey feeling. The food and cocktails are top tier. Truly one of the best Italian restaurants I have ever been to. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic cuisine. Even with all that, the best part of our dining experience was definitely our waitress Cindy. She was very informative on the menu, she was kind, and so attentive to our needs. Even if the food wasn't the best (which it was), I would come back simply because of the service. read more

Me and my friends took a trip up here for the weekend, we last minute decided on this restaurant. When I tell you this is the cutest, homiest establishment! Our waitress, Cindy was absolutely lovely, I would die for her. The best Italian food I've ever had and the service is above and beyond! If you are having to decide between here and somewhere else, forget about the other place and come to Torme and dine with Cindy!!!! read more

Food, service, and ambiance were excellent. So many things I wanted to try that we'll have to go back. Care and detail in the food was evident. Billy (our server) was friendly and attentive but not overly so. If eating outside, would recommend putting on mosquito repellent. read more

Excellent food, service, and ambiance! I went twice- once we sat outside, and the other time we sat at a high-top table inside. During both visits, I was blown away by the quality of the food. I tried the pastas that each of my friends got and was highly impressed, but I absolutely adored my salmon and risotto- the textures and flavors were outrageous. I will definitely be back when I'm in town again! read more

Torme - Italian Near Me - Prescott, Arizona

My wife and I truly wanted to like this place because it was in a nice little home converted to a restaurant. It really had a good atmosphere. The staff was very friendly, but that's where it ended. There's always something about a restaurant that is not managed very well. You can always see it. The food took forever to come out. The couple next to us had waited even longer than we had but we all were trying to be patient so we anticipated the food to be great or even good would be fine but it was far from it. Just not good. very bland, read more

We just got back from Italy and this was by far the best meal me have had ever! I don't like octopus, but I actually loved it here. We had stripped sea bass, salmon, the filet mignon, lamb chops, and a mixed seafood plate. The wine was wonderful and the service was the cherry on top! I can't believe we have such a gem in Prescott, I would recommend it to everyone!! read more

Located right next to Frys in a house on the corner *no sign*. We had lunch there on a Friday afternoon- there was no wait for sitting outside. Outside has a nice patio area, half of which is in a tent. Service is very friendly. Tables have linen cloths. Upscale. Upon seating they bring out freshly made bread, cream cheese spread, and carrot slaw. Food is all freshly made and you can tell by the taste. Pasta portions are very large- they don't really have a lunch menu, it's all more like a dinner menu. read more

Amazing food, fair pricing for quality and service. Server was very pleasant and responsive.

Barry's done it again! Lovely spot very nicely done! As for the ridiculous 1 star review below about not being able to change out your noodle choice, if you're gonna be that picky, stay home, FFS ‍ read more

Simply great... scallops were perfect and the mushroom ravioli was the bomb! Service was excellent... we had a special event and they were incredibly accommodating. read more

Fantastic dining experience! The food is excellent & the service is terrific. Staff are attentive to needs, friendly, but also allow you the opportunity to enjoy the ambiance. Like their sister restaurant, El Gato Azul, the Torme experience is a MUST DO... Even their complimentary bread/cheese plate is delicious. Provecho!! read more

Food: amazing and everything is freshly made Service: awesome Cost: $30-45 a plate Great for a date, birthday or special event. read more

El Gato Azul is one of my favorite restaurants and I wanted to try Barry Barbe's other restaurant. The building is small and cute with plenty of outdoor seating. The staff is very friendly and there's a view of the kitchen. Even the cooking staff said 'hello'. The bread and the cheese spread was really good, we got extra. The spinach fettuccine was really good and complemented with the smoke salmon. The dish is great! The bathrooms are clean and even use real towels, a really nice touch. I had a great experience, a great Italian restaurant with a creative twist. read more

We love this place. Every time we have dined in, we have never been disappointed. The food is great and the atmosphere is lovely. Service has always been good. Highly recommend! read more

If you could bottle and sell "pretentious", this is the store you'd buy it at. Walked in early to make reservations, and they forgot. Ordered a bottle of wine, it had a twist off cap. The food was bland, and under cooked. Absolute discrase to fresh Italian cuisine, id bet they'd charge for the flys on the patio if they could. Never, ever, ever eat here read more

The salad had a nice mix of ingredients. The dressing was a bit too heavy, but it was still a good choice.

Excellent food, the beef tartare was astounding. Our server was attentive and the atmosphere was very cozy. Too bad they're not open during the weekend. read more

We visited Torme with friends as part of our Christmas celebrations. We all had something different including the duck, the brand new spicy shrimp dish, the scallops and the fruitti de mar. All were delicious! The restaurant is small so reservations are recommended. The service was excellent! I highly recommend giving them a try! read more

Food was average but service was good. We ordered the baked antipasto and primo ravioli. The antipasto was good but the ravioli was hard on the bottom and swimming in olive oil. I assumed the ravioli would've been soft but I couldn't even cut it with a knife. Pollo Marsala was not a boneless chicken breast and difficult to cut. The mushrooms ravioli was good and was the favorite of all the dishes. Desserts are very small for the price. Ambience was an outdoor tent enclosure. Will probably not go back. read more

We will definitely return to this great restaurant. Everything about our experience was wonderful. The ambience was lovely, the cocktails were top notch, the service was excellent and the food was outstanding. read more

An update from the 5 stars from last year...I invited some friends for dinner that had not there been. We, unforunately, were seated on the patio at 6 PM. The flies (from adjacent rodeo grounds) were so horific the 4 people next to us were covering their heads with napkins, but were finally move to a table inside. The couple next to use had 3 of Torme's fly table helipcopters going, but to no avail. Barry, instead of investing in the new restaurant, figure out a solution to the patio. Close it if you have to. I will never go back, although I have been to Torme at least 10 times for lunch (no longer available). My friends will never go back, and I'm pretty sure the 6 people I mentioned above will never go back. read more

It was just ok. Not as impressive as the atmosphere and ambiance suggested. Ok but not that good. Service was great but the food... Just don't expect too much. Sorry. read more

Great place with great staff and really great food. Scallops are amazing as is the twists they have on some of the salads. Pastas are great as well. I love coming here. Really disappointed in some of the reviews as Barry really does care about customers and it shows. Never had a negative experience. read more

First time diner at Torme found it via Yelp. The ambiance is quaint (a small converted home) inside but they also have outdoor seating. The owner mentioned that he is looking for a bigger place but don't let that stop you from dropping in to enjoy a nice dinner. My wife ordered the Fettuccine De Spinachi Con Salmon Affumicato and I had the Salmone Pesto Giardino. The Fettuccine was tossed in olive oil, garlic, pine nuts, pancetta, cracked pepper, roasted tomatoes, and house smoked salmon. The Salmone Pesto Giardino is chargeilled, contains heirloom and roasted tomatoes, garlic, fresh basil, and pine nuts served with risotto and fresh vegetables. To say both dishes were excellent would be an understatement. My salmon dish was one of the best salmon I've ever had and the risotto was perfectly cooked (always a challenge). Saving a little for later was difficult and when boxing the salmon it was literally falling apart on the fork. The Fettuccine was perfectly tossed with olive oil, the salmon in that dish was again delightful along with the rest of the ingredients. Our server was customer focused and excellent as was the rest of the staff. Finding out it was our anniversary, they offered us any desert item and we chose the cheesecake which was awesome. Not to deny the bartender - he was spot on with his mixology skills. All in all this put an exclamation point on our 34th anniversary. For future visits to Prescott, they are on the top of our list. I hope anyone reading this does theirselves a favor and makes a reservation at Torme read more

Excellent lunch a couple months ago. Very well prepared food and friendly atmosphere. Chatted with the owner before leaving and our server was great too. We tried to dine there again around thanksgiving time but they were closed so we will stop in after the coming holidays. Not a very big restaurant, just the way I like it! read more

Food is innovative and tasty!! Great friendly service. We sat outside, the heaters kept everyone comfortable What a great fun evening! read more

This is by far the best Italia in the county. Their food is real recipe made and I've eaten the champion and it was incredible. Please try this great restaurant. Their lunch menu will satisfy as well as much as dinner menu will. read more

Wow!!! Amazing night at Torme! The food was amazing! Came for Wednesday, Pasta Night. Everything was delicious. Had the Lobster Bruschetta app. I want to eat that everyday.
