Dominick's Italian Of Historic Norcross

We chose to celebrate a sweet friend’s birthday here. The decor is exquisite! The atmosphere was vibrant and joyfully loud. I ordered Salmon Alfredo which was bland and a slice of cheese cake that was okay. The company and the vibe of this establishment will cause me to come again to try something else.

This place is amazing. Have to be honest, we only went because it was Enzo's from Stranger Things. But it's high quality food, good service, and a warm and charming atmosphere.

This place was fantastic, would definitely recommend and plan to come back! The food was great, and the atmosphere was really cozy and inviting. Our waitress, Tabitha, was incredibly helpful and gave us great advice on all the different choices. She was super friendly and made the whole experience even better. I also could not more highly recommend trying the garlic bread, some of the best we’ve had!!

I absolutely loved this cozy place! I came here for Hopper’s table from Stranger Things to celebrate my anniversary, and it couldn’t have been more special. I really appreciate how fast they handled my reservation and the warm tour they gave us when we arrived. Such a memorable experience! The food 10/10 thanks to nestor!

Went here with my grandma and brother for dinner amazing pasta and bread family sizes as well we got two entrees

We came here on a Saturday night around 630 and we were seated right away. Few people at the bar and a few tables taken. It started filling up as time went by. Our server, Alorra, was friendly, attentive, and professional. Probably one of the best servers I’ve come across in a long time and I have high standards for servers. It was our first time there and their dishes are family style. We both had a cup of their daily soup, it was really good. The garlic bread with cheese was excellent. We shared the lasagna and chicken carbonara, both delicious. But would have liked a tad more sauce in both dishes. The tiramisu was to die for. We’ll be back for sure.

I've been to Dominick's for dates, family events, and birthdays, and it's consistently one of my favorite Italian spots. I've visited multiple locations-downtown/historic Norcross, Buford, and downtown Lawrenceville-and each one has a great atmosphere that works for both special occasions and a relaxed dinner. What keeps me coming back is the food: the sauce is excellent, the meatballs are always on point, and I order the spaghetti every time. Simple, classic, and done right.

Healthy portions and great flavors! Love the bread and tomato sauce.

Excellent and friendly service from Sally! Delicious food and generous portions. A favorite place for a date night or with the family alike.

Never a disappointment, but we don't come here often enough for sure. I always get my old standby of chicken saltimbocca, but my husband tried the chicken portobello for the first time. He said it was a little bit sweeter of a marsala sauce, then regular, and really enjoyed it. We switched up the pasta side to Penne with a vodka sauce instead of the normal spaghetti with marinara. We order the full size because it always reheats very nicely. Our server, Tabitha was friendly and on top of it. The restaurant is always clean and kept up nice and the music is it just the right volume. People can talk, but not be overheard. We couldn't decide if we wanted a dessert or not, so we got a cannoli in a to go container in case we wanted to have a little bite. It is not the kind of cannoli I'm used to, but it is fresh and tasty.

We were excited to try Dominick's in Historic Norcross, but unfortunately, our experience fell short. Upon arrival, the service had a distinct local favoritism vibe. We weren't greeted with the same warmth as other patrons. We were seated quickly, as the restaurant wasn't busy yet. The food itself was just okay, lacking much flavor. The chicken and pasta marinara were particularly disappointing - both bland and uninspired. The calamari was a particular letdown - it was undercooked and chewy. I politely requested the waitress to fry it for a bit longer, but it came back even chewier and now dry. When I explained why I was sending it back she seemed unbothered and didn't even attempt to help find a solution. The bread, which I'm unsure if homemade, was concerning. It arrived scorching hot, swimming in oil, and topped with cheese. The Gorgonzola Salad with its delicious dressing was the only redeeming part of the meal. Overall, the inattentive service and bland, poorly prepared food left us disappointed with Dominick's. We checked out with a clean salad plate and a table full of food.

I must admit- My wife and I didn't stumble upon Dominick's, we sought it out after watching a very popular "Strange" show on a well known streaming service. That said, however, it did NOT disappoint. There's no wonder why the fictional characters made such a fuss about it. We got there as soon as they opened and were greeted by our very friendly waiter, who quickly ushered us in to this cozy, romantic restaurant. From there, it just got better... the service was exceptional, the food was outstanding and the ambiance was incredible. Dominick's is perfectly suited for a fun family outing, the perfect first date, or a nice romantic date night out with your wife (or husband) of over 25 years. You might expect a meal like this to cost a few nights worth of overtime, too... but you'd be wrong. When the check arrived, I was pleasantly surprised. I don't know what will bring you to Norcross, GA... but whatever it is, no matter how Strange it may be... might I suggest you stop in and visit Enz... er... uh.. I mean, Dominick's. Oh yeah, the portions are big enough to share, so make sure you're hungry when you go. Also, I heard the breadsticks were good and they had a nice Chianti, but I suggest you try the lasagna and save room for the bindi bomba, instead.

Israel was our waiter and did a great job!! We had chicken piccata and Gorgonzola salad! Excellent! Had reservations on a Wednesday night-probably not necessary during the week. Norcross is such a cute town with easy parking. Loved our evening!

We should have known when we walked in on a Saturday evening and there were so many empty tables. Ordered lasagna which came out in a huge triangular chunk w sauce slopped on top. Tasted days old underneath the camouflage with a strange metallic or vinegary overtone. Dominick's special veal came out covered in a glob of cold cheese. Side pasta hard and sauce terrible. Bread was also bad! Unfortunate experience, and too bad as this would be a great location for a nice Italian place.

I had the best dinner experience! Whoever served me and my bestfriend on Thursday September 7th around 7PM, you were amazing! It was a kind gentleman. First of all, I love the location, it is in downtown Norcross which is a nice area near a park and some other nice restaurants. Parking is free and it's never too crowded. For our appetizers we had the Calamari Fritti and a half order of Dominick's Garlic Bread. The bread was very fresh, and although I'm not the biggest fan of calamari I enjoyed it as well. We also very much enjoyed our drinks, I had the Watermelon Cosmopolitan and my best friend has the Mango Bellini and a glass of their Frisk Riesling. As for our entrees we both ordered the Spicy Chicken and Sausage Casserole. I will say it was not as ~ spicy ~ as I thought it would be. My friend and I love spicy so it was a little underwhelming. I had asked if the kitchen could make it a bit spicier and even with that and red pepper flakes it didn't give me the kick I hoped for. Nonetheless it was still very very flavorful and delicious! We had enough for leftovers! The portions are very generous which is something Dominick's is known for. Thank you for this experience!

This has been my favorite Italian restaurant to go to since I moved to Georgia. When you enter the restaurant it has a very classical feel to the restaurant and the natural light especially in the daytime makes the interior shine. The service is always amazing. everyone is friendly and I've seen them treat their regular customers with respect and making genuine connections. The food! MAN first thing you have to order is the Dominick's Garlic & Cheesy Bread. A whole loaf of bread covered in thinly shaved garlic and melted mozzarella!! Trust me you'll be wanting to take more of this bread home! The carbonara and mussels are some of my favorites!! you won't be disappointed with the portion sizes either. a half portion is more than enough for 1 person. Check out my video below for an great review on Dominick's Best Italian Food Yet!! Dominicks Historic Norcross https://youtu.be/aUDvjsTRK2I

The service was quick and thoughtful. Our waitress was unbelievably sweet and was so nice to my daughter. She hooked us up with some crayons to draw on the paper over the table which we loved. The Caesar salad was so good- just the right amount of dressing, nice slices of cheese and really good croutons. I had the Alfredo with blackened shrimp which I loved and my mom had the Alfredo which was the best she'd ever had. The marinara sauce you could tell was homemade and I as absolutely delicious. Another star that I didn't get a picture of was the cheese covered garlic bread which was so soft and delicious- we loved the slices of garlic that we could pick up with the bread. We ordered take out another night of the bread, Caesar salad and then the eggplant parmigiana which was also very good. Although we didn't have room for dessert we wished we had because the food was so good. Definitely check out if you want really good Italian food. Top notch. Also- The whole restaurant is really open and inviting and would be good for a large party or get together. When we picked up our to go order they had a rehearsal dinner of 40+ people and it looked like they were really happy and relaxed.

This restaurant has it all. Authentic Italian food. Robust selection. Half and full orders. It features exposed brick walls, black and white photos, and traditional Italian wine glasses and table settings. Service is great. Our server Alora was attentive and fun and made our dining experience (and birthday celebration) very special. We felt like we could have Been in Boston or New York or Chicago.

I had a pleasant date at the restaurant, and the Italian cuisine was decent. However, I was a bit disappointed when my glass of wine wasn't served in the appropriate wine glass. Despite that, the service was excellent, the house spread was delightful, and the ambiance, though Italian-themed, would have been better enjoyed outdoors if the weather were warmer. The Christmas decorations added to the beautiful atmosphere. Overall, it's worth checking out.

Great service, we had Caesar salad, calamari, garlic bread and chicken piccata .Caesar salad was well dressed croutons were buttery and delicious, great amount of parmesan cheese although they use shaved parmesan they could cut the shaved pieces so they aren't so long. The calamari was crispy and tasty. Garlic bread was so buttery, great amount of garlic! Chicken piccata was lemony goodness but I don't think the chicken piccata pairs well with a pasta with red sauce on top, odd flavor combination (it's like double acid doing the tomato sauce and then lemon sauce on the chicken) . Overall they have good prices and nice service.

We went around 5:15 on a Thursday. Although it wasn't needed that night, it is easy to make reservations online. Food was outstanding. I got the Mushroom Ravioli. I also tasted my husband's Lasagna and friends Tortelloni and Roasted Chicken. All were excellent along with the Garlic Bread. Honestly, we got 2! A lot of people raved about the one with cheese, but it is not needed. The regular garlic bread was just right! We got the Bomba dessert and it was very good. So many delicious dishes on the menu, I can't wait to go back. I really like how they go heavy on the sauce. I am nuts over sauce, so just the way I like it! My only complaint is that a salad is not complementary.

I used to love this place in the past but recently it has gone down hill. The service is mediocre at best, the sauces were very watery, and the restaurant was practically empty on a saturday night which is never a good sign. i would avoid this place if you are in the downtown norcross area and go to paizanos instead

Great date night Italian. I made a reservation, arrived early and was taken care of at the bar with a nice glass if wine. Interior is unpretentious, casual but kept up, all staff were friendly, attentive, and personable. We had garlic cheese bread (crunch and soft garlicky deliciousness) calamari (crunch w added jalapeños for a spicy touch). I had veal parm w spaghetti and miz lady had a big salad. We both left full, happy, and w leftovers. We spent extra time chatting and didn't feel rushed out which was great. Will def be back!

I travel frequently for work and I've had Italian cuisine across multiple different cities, this place is some of the best Italian I have ever had. The portions are awesome. The service was fantastic. I will definitely be coming back anytime. I'm in the area.

Dominick's, oh how the mighty have fallen. I remember a time when this place was the go-to for authentic Italian cuisine and a dining experience that left you craving more. Sadly, my recent visit left me reminiscing about the glory days rather than savoring the flavors on the plate. It was my friend's birthday and after our lackluster meal I arranged to get her a birthday tiramisu, she found a piece of plastic in it! Not a great present, Dominick's!

This is a lovely Italian-American joint right in downtown Norcross. Service started off a little slow and our drinks took awhile to get to our table but I believe there was only 1 person pouring drinks at the bar. For starters, we had the cheese garlic bread (must get) and I had a small house salad. I love that the carrots are cut like waffle fries! For entree, I ordered the shrimp scampi. There's a decent amount of shrimp but flavor was kind of lacking, it needed a squeeze of lemon or something. My fiancé got the eggplant Parmesan, which was delicious and gooey and topped with tons of cheese. We both ordered half portions and came home with plenty of leftovers after our meal. We couldn't resist dessert and shared a cannoli and tiramisu. Both were good but the cannoli hit the spot!

Family style Italian . Do order entrees to be shared. Delicious and traditional . Great for family gatherings

Cocktails were perfect...balanced and nice and cold. Wine selection was good. Bread had lots of garlic if that is your thing. Salads, side salad is perfect size with a nice amount of cheese. Now on to the main dishes. The eggplant parm was tough, the manicotti with spinach, the spinach needs to be de-stemed, thick and way too chewy. The red sauce was a little heavy handed on the salt. We enjoyed the experience and if we lived local we would be regulars, just knowing what to order and how large the servings were. Servers were friendly and not overly chatty which is a bonus.

In the heart of historic Norcross is a special place for Italian food. At the corner of Holcomb Bridge and the train, you'll see the brick building with the prominent sign "Dominicks. Little Italy. Lotta Food." The chalkboard menu tells you about specials. There are a few outside tables for eating while people watching or proceed inside to the host. Inside is a rustic interior all ready to sit many people. We were immediately seated and welcomed. The service was outstanding, we had drinks quickly and ordered right when we were ready. Our server was extremely attentive all night. The garlic bread was crispy outside, soft inside, and sitting in a thin layer of oil. Delightful. Our dinner selections were a homemade Caesar salad (the dressing was great as were the croutons) and chicken parm. They offer half or full portions. The full was 4 (four!!) cutlets - covered in cheese. There is a side of pasta- we managed to clear that quickly. If you're an big pasta eater order a second side of that if you're splitting this dinner. The cannoli for dessert was fresh, decadent and a perfect end to the night. This is the place you can even bring your Italian mother in law and she'll appreciate it.

Great service...our waitress was Amy and she was very helpful and right on the spot to serve our meal and to refill our drinks! Very good Italian food...very large portions....everything very fresh! The best thing about Historic is free parking

The food was fantastic!!! Service was great! I loved the old world Italian decor & atmosphere! I'd definitely go back & I'd recommend this restaurant.

We came here as we were touring various sites where Stranger Things were filmed. This is the infamous Enzo's, where Hopper was waiting for Joyce on their "date". We were excited as this was a running Italian restaurant and decided to check it out. The service was great, our waitress was super friendly and told us about their experience as they filmed here. They even have a picture of Hopper at the back. Their menu was extensive with various Italian dishes. We were able to try a few things. Portion sizes are huge and most dishes are very rich.

We didn't have a reservation, but was able to sit at the bar even during the Norcross Christmas Tree lighting when so many people were in the area. We got something quick so caesar salad with grilled shrimp & it was a good choice. It was so big, we could have shared, especially with plans to partake of the outside snacks. But K finished his nonetheless. I couldn't. We asked for the complimentary bread while we waited and it was pretty good with the marinara sauce on the side. The sweet tea was good too. The bartender was nice. The only thing was I had the garlic after taste, so remember to bring gum for afterwards!

My friends and I came here in a Friday night and were seated immediately. The staff was very helpful and accommodating. We ordered garlic bread with cheese for appetizers. The bread was very soft and the cheese was gooey perfection. We each ordered a half portion of pasta and a large Cesar salad to share. The Cesar salad had a good proportion of dressing, cheese, and croutons. I forgot which bottle we got, but the Cabernet Sauvignon also went well. For the pastas, we were so glad to have orders the half portions as it was still a lot of food. We had to Togo them since there were leftovers. The waitress was kind to let us split the bill and also packed our food for us in front of us. The atmosphere was also nice. It felt like a family restaurant as many people brought their kids and spouses. There also seemed to be people on dates. Overall, there is a cozy vibe with soft lights and exposed brick. Definitely would come back for some simple American style Italian food with big portions.

Best Italian restaurant I have ever been to! Sharon and Melissa will take great care of you!!

Great with fantastic entrees and fair prices. Good location. Clean and efficient with good service.

if you want straight to the point delicious italian food in an old school atmosphere, welcome to dominick's! the building is old and original and it shows, but look past all of that. order the arancini, the eggplant parm, chicken parm with a side of pasta (red or white sauce- whatever you fancy) and you are in officially in heaven. i've always wanted to try other things but the classics are just so delicious. you've been officially hooked up, now stop reading this and go enjoy it!

I went in on a Saturday afternoon with my wife and kids. Wrote my name down, and I was told that the approximate waiting time would be about an hour. I said ok, and waited at the park while my kids played. about 45 minutes after, I returned, and the hostess told me that she couldn't do anything for me that they were booked for the night. (Mind you that she managed to accommodate another part (of 4) at a high table by the bar. I saw that my name had been erased from the list, and she just simple shrug and said that there wasn't anything she could do. I didn't feel like entertaining the situation anymore, and just left.

Amazing food and very helpful staff Huge portions Real flavors Can't miss Lasagna is great

It's been years since I've eaten here..... so what do I do but show up with 13 of my closest friends. The staff was on point all evening, orders were taken and delivered perfectly. No one's glass was ever empty. We started with appetizers, Calamari Fritti, Stuffed Mushrooms, Dominick's Garlic Bread & Arancini di Riso. After that we still had to order dinner, my choice was the Mushroom Ravioli which sounds delicious as it was.

Garlic bread is amazing! Paper thin slices of garlic browned in oil and butter poured over fresh baked bread. Half dinner portions were still 3-4 meals for me; 2 meals for the hubby. Service was attentive but not too pushy. We can't wait to return for more garlic bread and to try some other items on the menu.

I'm wrong for this but hear me out, I have not had this place since I lived in Atl area (circa 2016) but this food is soo good that I still dream about it. My last meal before I left was the chicken tortellini and I have yet to find a place that rivals it. I've never been to Italy but this place transports me to it in my mind and the food is delicious and flavorful and great portions. Do not miss an opportunity to treat yourself. When I go to Atl this will be my first and last stop.

Great Italian food and reasonably priced. The cheese bread everyone is talking about is pretty good, also pretty filling, so consider ordering light. My party of 2 shared a single piece with a cup of soup to start. Portions are massive, so be sure to order the half sizes. Even a half size could feed three people. Our specific server was terrible, but we noticed that it was only her and none of the other servers, so maybe just a bad night or something. Parking was ample.

Went there for my wife's birthday. We had few people so order family style. The foods were fresh and on point. It wasn't the greatest, but the service was good, and the food were hot and delicious.

We came to this restaurant because my son recommended it so highly. We were looking forward to taste the food. The bread and salad/dressing was good. Unfortunately, before we got the food, we saw a roach on the wall, lost our appetite and then another in the bathroom. See the picture of the bathroom. I called the manager as the waiter told us the roaches come from outside. The manager told us the same thing, I told him we will never come back and nonchalant he said good don't come back. I gave him my credit card to pay, I didn't want him to think I called him over because I didn't want to pay. He took the bill and the card and then changed his mind and told me not to pay. I told him I was writing this post and he laughed like is so funny. The bread is the best, my friend ordered the salmon, what a disappointment and I ordered the pasta as I like to first taste the sauce, don't order is a fail bolognese sauce. Italian my favorite food to eat so know when is good. Bad is a compliment!!!

Excellent food and great ambiance. Service was amazing try the chicken sausage casserole

Note: the 4 Star is massively driven by the Alfredo sauce and the top quality service. Everything else I'd say is 2.75! Order: apps: Calamari and garlic bread , main: chicken Parmesan, chicken piccata and shrimp Alfredo Ambience: it's got a Romantic feel about it. Perfect for first date or for a nice date when you're serious about the other person. Well lit but softly lit. Brick walls. Family dining so portions are bigger and good for sharing (hence a good date spot). Fine dining. The fact that it's in a town center adds more to the ambience. Review: we didn't make reservation thinking it's a Monday night. Thankfully the restaurant was able to accommodate for us because it was busy for a Monday (first week night of the week). Starting from accommodating for us to being attentive to just being a nice waiter, the service was really good. Now the food: - calamari: generous portion. Well flavored. Not TOO fried or chewy. - garlic bread: I've had better. Bread was hard and on the dry side. Garlic and butter was on the plate and you'd have to dip. - Shrimp Alfredo with linguini was the star of the show. Was creamy but not too liquify saucy. It tasted rich and flavorful - chicken piccata: it was a bit tougher and too much lemon that it overpowered everything else - chicken Parmesan: it was great!

Great food. A little pricey but the steak was good. Pasta was good. Garlic bread a bit greasy but very good. Great ambience and placement in the city. Overall good time and good food. A good $100+ date night.

Though they've cut their hours / days to evenings only, Dominick's is one of the BEST Italian restaurants anywhere around and is WORTH the wait! They serve VERY generous helpings of WONDERFUL dishes, and the service is tremendous! Take a date or the whole family for a wonderful dining experience eating out and enjoying your favorite Italian dishes!

It saddens me to say that the topic of my review is horrible, but it truly is, I can't even say anything nice except our waitress was truly awesome. The food was terrible, the tomato sauce tasted awful. None of us even ate half our plates. One person had eggplant parm and it was so hard she couldn't cut through it. Two people had chicken parm and one veal parm, none of us were happy. My husband and in went there several years ago and it was awesome, but whoever runs it now has to know the food isn't good and the restaurant was basically empty. I hope the manager/owner sees this and makes changes.

I'm a fan of Dominick's! The Dominick's team are always helpful and friendly. I've dined here for years and used to bring my clients and friends here a lot back in the day and for some reason haven't been able to make it back in awhile. Now we keep coming back. We especially love that they are pet friendly and we will gladly occupy the white linen table out front with our pup. In our recent visit Chris immediately greeted us and got us seated outside. He also was kind enough to bring out a water bowl of fresh water for our pup without us even asking for it. Really appreciated that. The portions are generous too. I like how I leave full and still have plenty to take home for leftovers. I like how they have half and full portions available. Great for sharing family style. My favorite dishes are the following: Carbonara- Yum Eggplant Parmesan Chicken Parmesan Chicken Marsala Manicotti Stuffed mushrooms Garlic bread Definitely check them out. Interior is full of character and charm too. They also have great space for large parties.

We went here last night with a table of almost 15 guests for my nephew's 5 birthday party. My family spent over $400 on this meal. I loved the location in Downtown Norcross. The food was good --huge portions! The garlic bread was delicious. Why I give this place 2 stars? Since it was my nephew's birthday we brought our own birthday cake for him. The server told us the restaurant charges $3 to slice each person a piece of cake. WOW! Blew our minds! Slicing the cake for all 15 of us would cost more than the cake itself. Also... we just spent $400 on this place! We weren't being cheap. We just wanted my nephew to have his favorite cake on his birthday. I've never heard of this... it was so bizarre. The server proceeded to tell us that they charge $3 per slice because they have to charge to wash the dishes. Seriously?

Dominic's is good for a special occasion. They have a good meatball a good sausage a very good sauce and pasta and overall the food is somewhat authentic however I would not put it on a regular rotation. Their lunch is a really good value, however their dinner is a little over priced.

the food was just simply terrible. Salty, over-cooked pasta pouring over the plate, we couldn't eat it, rude waiter (with plumbers cleavage!)It's location and the interior are great. I just wish a different restaurant or at least owner would take over... the food is awful.

servings large good service ambiance good - food ok - nothing special and worth going out of the way

Whenever I come back to Norcross to visit, I always try to come to Dominick's for dinner at least once. The food is excellent, the prices are reasonable and the service is great. Much better than the restaurant chains. My only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is the wine selection. The wines are okay, a bit pricey for the quality and selection. The food is so good I wish they offered better selections of wine.

When we visit Duluth, Ga we always have to stop and eat at Dominick's of Historic Norcross. This time we celebrated our wedding anniversary at Dominick's. I ordered the Mediterranean Tortelloni a cheese filled Tortelloni with sun-dried tomatoes and kalamata olives in a roasted red pepper and feta cheese Alfredo sauce garnished with fried spinach. My wife had the Spinach & Sundried Tomato Manicotti a fresh pasta sheets filled with ricotta, mozzarella, pecorino, sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, roasted garlic, and caramelized red onions baked in an Alfredo sauce and topped with Dominick's marinara sauce. For dessert we had the NY cheesecake. Best one I ever had. I would recommend Dominick's to everyone

My son was getting married at Flint Hill located in Norcross, so going to Dominick's for his rehearsal dinner was perfect! And thanks to Robin, the Banquet Manager, and Sally, the manager working that evening, everything was indeed perfect! We had a private room in the back; we were able to decorate and bring photos, etc. Robin walked me through the process every step of the way & always responded to my emails promptly (I had lots of questions). Sally was there to greet us and made sure everything was done to our liking; she seemed truly happy for us as we celebrated this special occasion. The entire waitstaff was very friendly & attentive. And the food, of course, was delicious. Thank you to Dominick's for making our rehearsal dinner a very special memory!
