Tamburro's Italian Home

We tried tamburros for dinner on Friday night. The restaurant itself is clean but pretty plain with tables and chairs no booths. Our server did a good job waiting on us and answering questions we had regarding the food. My wife picked the chicken Piccata with pasta. It was pretty good. I had the spaghetti and meatballs. These were some of the best meatballs ever. Great flavor and cooked really well. We had the house and Ceasars salad. Both were good. The small loaves of bread with the garlic butter were excellent. We had the mini cannoli for dessert . Very good. Nice little family restaurant with excellent Italian food.

First time visiting, and it was an excellent experience! Started with the bruschetta — fresh and flavorful. I had the lasagna for my main course — perfect portion size and wonderfully hearty. I usually skip dessert, but I couldn’t resist the crème brûlée topped with blueberries and strawberries — and I’m glad I didn’t! Everything was delicious, and the service was great. Highly recommend a visit!

To-Go order, did not eat in. Just refuse to believe other people's 4/5 star reviews of this place. Just look at the veal parm in pic. $29 for that!? - no marinara or cheese, a dry piece of meat slapped on noodles. Lasagna dinner $20 - literally the size of an appetizer or smaller. Salt covered up any spices/herbs. Also wanted bleu cheese dressing for side salad but got ranch instead. Why go here when you can go across the road for cheaper prices, better quality ingredients, and portions??

It was delicious. If you are wanting a fresh, from scratch, Italian meal, I highly suggest! The meals are basically made to order, but the wait is worth it. The sauce melts in your mouth. The pasta and bread are worth the calories! So we had to try the Cheesecake with Blueberry compote.

This was my first time dining here, and it was amazing! The food was incredibly fresh and flavorful and the atmosphere was so welcoming. My server Brianna truly made the experience even better she was friendly and attentive she made me feel like more than just another customer. Between the service and the quality of the food I’ll definitely be coming back!

Food is delicious. A little pricey for a strip mall restaurant but they don't serve alcohol so that is understandable. I got the lasagna and my daughter got the chicken Alfredo. Both were really good and it came with a small salad and warm bread. Cost $52 after a 20% tip. Follow up! I went back and they serve wine and beer. A glass of red wine went perfectly with that awesome lasagna. Just the wife and I went again tonight, and it was awesome food. We split the lasagna, 2 side salads, tea and water. The bill was $27 after tip. Mr. Tamburro plays the accordion on a regular basis, which adds so much to the atmosphere! Go check it out. If you enjoy authentic Italian food, you will not be disappointed.

Authentic family restaurant- made from scratch deliciousness, delicious wine list and terrific family atmosphere! The Vajra Rosso is a must-have red wine- they even have Limoncello!! I enjoyed the HERBED BUTTER with warm bread, FRESH MARINARA and fried mozzarella, VEAL MARSALA and cannolis 🤤😋💖

The space is a bit austere, but the food is fairly authentic and well prepared. The service is the standout here. Very welcoming and sincere.

First time coming here and it was beyond spectacular! They started off by giving us bread & butter and the butter has a wonderful garlic herb flavor. We ordered the chicken pesto tortellini and the baked manicotti, both came with caesar salads. The side caesar salad was some of the best caesar salad i've ever had! The pasta dishes were EXCELLENT! Everything tasted so fresh and homemade. The tomato basil sauce with the manicotti was phenomenal! Finished off our meal with the italian cheesecake and crème brûlée and once again...excellent!! we can't wait to go back and try more dishes.

I called and they put me on list while I drove from Hoover to try this place out. Got there and was seated and they brought some bread with delicious homemade garlic butter. We ordered mozzarella sticks and they gave us free cheese bread that was cooked on accident. Lasagna was delicious. I have no complaints at all. You must try this place!!!

Located in a plaza in Trussville. Cafeteria or fast food style vibe but full service. Our server was nice and attentive. The food was okay- sauce too sweet and noodles overcooked. Free parking lot.

Welp, it has been my second visit. I tried the restaurant a second time because my first was right after it opened, please don't ask. So my honest review is only okay. Nothing remarkable, much to my surprise. From everything I read about the return I expected so much more. The portions are nothing to rave about nor are they too small. The Cheesy Garlic bread was smashed and nothing to cheer about. My husband was pleased with the Veal Parmesan because it was better than across the street (which is not Italian), I beg differ. I had baked Ziti. It was NOT baked, the cheese was melted. There was not ricotta cheese in the sauce, too grainy and salty for ricotta. So in reality I had some Penne pasta with a strange sauce with a back taste that was distracting and cheese melted on top that when cooled became a sheet. First suggestion, do not get take out. Second, don't expect extreme flavors, they are very good middle of the road. The restaurant was clean, the person that took and delivered my order was very nice, friendly and attentive. In a time where service at a decent location is waning, it is above average. From my POV, the flavor and preparation is not what I am looking for, but they do a good job with what they prepare. And these alone warrant good notice.

Food is absolutely delicious! Service was quick and friendly. Table of 3 and we each ordered a separate dish. We had an order of lasagna, ziti. Alfredo and cheese bread. All were excellent!

Ordered dinner eggplant parm. Received two slices of eggplant that tasted like it wasn't terribly fresh and some spaghetti (even this would be considered a lunch portion at Olive Garden). The dressing on the salad was more of a sludge consistency. The "garlic bread" was a small Italian loaf with some garlic butter that came on the side to dip it in. This will be my first and last time eating here.

THIS IS MY FAVORITE PLACE TO GO!!! Not only is the Alfredo the best thing I've ever eaten, the food in general is AMAZING!!! I would literally give my life for the crème brûlée. Honestly, the people are also why we go. Bre, Logan and Lauren always make us feel like family there. They are so kind and the best all around. If you want good food and nice people, you should go!! At Tamburros you are family

Without a doubt, one of the best meals I have had in a very long time. Everything was absolutely delicious and the gentleman there was very friendly and cared about the service we received. I'm looking forward to going back soon! The inside of the restaurant is very cozy and family friendly.

Absolutely loved dining here. The restaurant is beautiful and the mural on the wall was being painted while we dined. Our food was delicious and could not have been any better. All of the ingredients are very fresh and tasty! 10/10 Can't wait to come back!

Food was yummy!! Butter for bread was amazing. We had carbonara, pesto and marsala.

Fabulous Italian food. Homemade true Italian cuisine. The garlic cheese bread is amazing, the Alfredo is great, the lasagna would feed two people. Great for Sunday lunch or Friday night date night. Service is fantastic as well.

The Veal Parmesan, wine selection, and Mr. Tamburro playing the accordion is the best way to spend a Friday night

The service was good and food plentiful but the sauce was just not it and salty I could not finish my meal.

The service was very pleasant and encouraging. The wine selection was nice and the chicken parm was good but nothing crazy! Needless to say, I enjoyed it but I don't think I will be craving this place anytime soon.

Amazing food, great atmosphere! We ordered the calamari and the veal Marsala, both were excellent! Our waitress, Celeste, was fantastic and made several good suggestions including the crème brûlée. Must try!

Mediocre. It's up there with your small business pizza/pasta places around Birmingham. But nothing really stands out about it. Had spaghetti and meatballs to go. 20 bucks......which I don't expect people to move the earth for, but if I'm paying twice what I would at other 90's Italian style food marked up about 5-8 more dollars more than competitors I'd expect more to come with the meal than an unheated hoagie roll with garlic butter on the side, and a smaller portion of pasta. The 3 meatballs were a good portion, but VERY large compared to others, assuming this was to convey value, but you're using too much lower quality beef to convey that. I'd personally be happier with a less gravy like sauce that doesn't really coat the noodles, and a higher quality beef with less meatballs, and for 20 bucks I expected my garlic bread to be maybe toasted.....the compounded whipped butter was really good, the dressing didn't have enough zip to it, and the meatballs are WAAAAAAY too heavy. What are you combining in those to make them so heavy? I got takeout and the tin it was housed in completely bent when grabbed from the edges. Meatballs aren't supposed to be like 90 percent meat.

Food is bland and taste like it all came frozen and pre packaged only to be heated up in a microwave.

Great food, service and pricing. The employees are friendly and nice. The service is quick and ready for you to enjoy some hot, delicious Italian Food.

Delicious, family friendly, great service - highly recommend! Glad to see it back in Trussville

Fabulous food with a fresh taste and the live entertainment tonight made was the perfect touch to an authentic Italian experience. We love the family atmosphere!

Ordered a to go order, didn't have all of the meals, the salads didn't have dressing. On top of that, the meals were absolutely horrible. We took maybe one bite each and threw them away outside, including the appetizers, because they smelled horrible as well. I really hope this place examines their recipes and quality of ingredients. I would love for this place to make it, but this place won't last a month unless they take it seriously. The meals were just plain sad.

We journeyed to Tamburro's Italian Home for Sunday afternoon lunch. We were greeted promptly by Melannie, who took good care of us the entire meal. The cheese sticks were really good, and our pasta was great! I had the rigatoni, my wife had the spaghetti, and my son had the kids' spaghetti. Great to have another restaurant with plenty of kids options instead of just one or two!! They give you plenty of delicious food, enough to bring some home for leftovers. We will definitely be back!

Food was decent. Nothing special. We went on. Tuesday night at 6;30 and were literally the only people there. Service was good but they had nobody else to serve that night. The beer selection is horrible. No macros at all. They can't offer a Bud/Miller/Coors/Ultra option? For that reason alone we will not be back.

Service was great and the ambiance was nice. I'm not a big Italian food guy! The marinara lacked flavor, noddles were over cooked, the house dressing is very flavorful and the bread is outstanding! The best part of the meal was the cannolis! Overall it was good!

The food was completely different than I expected. The house salad dressing was wonderful! The ravioli was perfect! My husband had the Antipasto salad that was large enough for two. This is not Olive Garden
