Tombolinos Restaurant

We celebrated my daughter’s graduation in their wine cellar and it was amazing!! Ezekiel, made sure my vision came to life. ( I am very grateful) The decorations and food was wonderful. Impeccable service all around. If you are looking for a venue to host your next event, do not hesitate and book with Tombolinos.

Great Italian🇮🇹 restaurant! My test for good Italian is their 🦑 Calamari.......they passed with high marks! Service is fantastic, give them a shot next time you're Jones'n pasta!

I've been here twice in my life - once when I was in the single digits in age and then again more recently. Obviously I don't remember much from the time I went as a kid aside from remembering I was in the upstairs area. From what I understand, ownership has changed at least once so I can only comment on the current ownership. Everyone was friendly, which goes a long way. The owner and the staff were all great. One notable thing was that the appetizers were taking a few minutes more to come out (not that I complained about it or minded), but they took notice of it and gave the table some small rice balls. I thought that it was a nice gesture. A lot of places don't pay attention to such things. The atmosphere was comfortable and welcoming. There are plenty of options with food. I cheated a little and checked the menu out online a day or so before coming here, so I already had my probable picks. Everything was great of course. Parking is pretty much street. Use caution when parking at a meter, but plenty of street parking without a meter on Kimball Avenue. Glad I gave this place a shot and I'd definitely return here.

I just had an anniversary dinner for my parents. I couldn’t ask for more . Ezekial and his staff did a fantastic job making sure everything from beginning to end went as planned. The food and service was top notch. It was evident that this family owned and operated business cares about the families they serve. I would highly recommend this restaurant for your special events

Jose was an amazing waiter. I love occasionally having dinner at Tombolino. The food is consistently delicious and the staff is very sweet. The last time my love and I ate here, our waiter Jose was so kind. He also understood that we were in a bit of a rush and made sure the food came out quickly. We were truly appreciative. I would highly recommend the steak and lamb special if they have it again.

What a wonderful place. You have to come here if you want excellent service, delicious food, and a lovely setting. About twenty friends and family members joined me in celebrating my dad's 70th birthday; they helped me put everything up and prepare the event, and my dad had a terrific time. I will definitely be going again. When he arrived, a band even performed happy birthday. It was a lot of fun. Thank you Ezekiel !

Absolutely amazing food and service! We are always greeted like family when we walk in. Such reasonable prices and great portions of food. Highly recommended to anyone who wants some delicious Italian food!

We had an awful experience with the owner. We returned the eggplant parmigiana because the cheese was clearly spoiled—it smelled bad, tasted sour, and could seriously make someone sick. We brought the dish back to show the owner, Ezekiel, and instead of taking responsibility, he was rude, dismissive, and completely unprofessional. He didn’t even offer a refund or exchange—no apology, no concern at all. He also complained that the dish was “half empty,” even though we had served it to our family. All five of us tried it and all five said it was bad—that’s why we brought it back in the first place. Shockingly, Ezekiel then brought another customer—a regular—into the situation and gave him our returned food to taste. That same dish we brought back because it was spoiled was passed around to others. Not only is that gross, it’s a serious health risk. What makes this even more disappointing is that we’ve been consistent customers for the past five years, ever since Ezekiel took ownership. This is how loyal customers are treated? This place clearly doesn’t care about its food quality, customer service, or basic food safety. We won’t be back—and others should think twice before eating here. I honestly hope we don’t get sick tonight.

My new boss flew in from California to work with me. He had been here once before so he picked it. He loves to get east coast Italian food when he comes to NY. I would have not picked this place but he liked it Only 2 tables in use. The food was good but nothing great the service was very good I would give it 3 and half if I could We had the baked clams and unfortunately they were dry I had the shrimp parm and it was very good the other people really liked the food so maybe i was just tired If you live in the area I would give it a shot as again maybe it was me.

Went for dinner about a week age. Loved the food. the cocktail was awesome, and the service excellent. My concern is rhat it was nearly empty. i hope it was just a slow night. I plane to return again and again and again...

This was my third visit to the restaurant. Usually, I've had a fantastic time. Tonight I had an older gentleman who was my waiter, he was very friendly. They had live entertainment with a very good singer. Our waiter forgot about us. Even though we arrived on time for our 6 o'clock reservations, I figured we would be out the door by eight or 8:30 to catch our movie. We waited over an hour for our waiter to return to us to give us the bill. He was too busy talking to the birthday girl and the live band to check on his customers. I had to get up and go in the kitchen to ask for my check. Even the owner was involved in filming of the band instead of looking around at his customers. I didn't leave the restaurant until 9:45.

Lovely hidden place locally centrally in Yonkers with plenty of street parking. It's a lovely inside great party room wonderful staff. Now let's get to the food delicious and wonderful pasta specials on Wednesday and Thursdays . I'm going to return with my children to enjoy this place.

We had a very nice dinner. Our server was outstanding. Discreetly attentive. My guest had the 3 course prix fixe meal of mussels, sole and cannoli. She loved the mussels although they were larger than she prefers. Would have been nice to have a slice of charred bread to use with the broth. Her sole tasted fishy but they graciously replaced it with salmon. The cannoli were crunchy and had a tasty filling. I had the veal Marsala. It was spectacular with large slices of tender veal along with a delicious sauce. I recommend asking for the bar room. Better ambience.

Celebrated our cousin's milestone birthday here and it was very good! The staff were very attentive and made sure we had drinks and delivered them promptly. The menu selections chosen for the party included a pasta, seafood, two chicken dishes and a meat selection. All meals came with penne vodka dish and salads beforehand. And mini rice balls to pass around the table. Everyone at our table were very pleased with their meals. Plates of cannolis to accompany the birthday cake were at all the tables. Only ding was that my coffee was cold. Happy our cousins chose Tombolino as it was a good spot for us traveling in from NJ (15 minutes away from GWB - when no traffic on either the Henry Hudson, Major Deegan - bonus!). Happy Birthday Cousin!!

We made a graduation party for my daughter this month and they did a great job. Ezekial was a pleasure to work with and the food and service was fantastic. I highly recommend this restaurant !

I went to celebrate Mother's Day with a party on 11 and this place did not let me down. Food was amazing mouth watering, the servers kept checking on my table and did nothing but show us the best this place i will be seeing soon

The food and service were great. I have been back several times. They do not rush the food and it was a great experience. We were pleasantly surprised by excellent entertainment on Friday night. I'm going to make it a regular stop.

The service was good also the food. However my credit card got stolen and that was the last place I used it at. When I call to let them know that something is happening in case others customer reported that the manager or the person who was put on the phone "ezequiel" was very nasty and defensive - I was not blaming anyone. instead of taking my grievance they told me off and hung up on me.

Food was okay, the chef added his own take on some traditional dishes but nothing to write home to mama about. Service was good, friendly, accommodating.

The food was good, but I wasn't pleased with the prix fixe menu being more expensive than the regular menu while offering the same items. If you're going to create a prix fixe menu, please ensure it has a different variety from your regular menu. Overall, it was okay. Additionally, be cautious when using credit cards here, as my dad had his card cloned.

We are always made to feel welcome as soon as we walk in. The staff is so attentive from start to finish. I have a serious food allergy to onion and garlic and they are so accommodating! Even with this allergy, they always make sure I have an amazing meal!! That is so hard to find as I am used to places saying sorry we cannot accommodate you or your option is plain fish/rice/broccoli or a plain burger. Not here, it is always fresh and beautifully done! Always with the drive down from Cape Cod, MA!

We love coming to Tombolino when we visit Yonkers! The food quality is always excellent and the owners and staff are exceptionally professional and attentive. We also enjoy the live music on Friday nights!

Absolutamente the food was beyond this world the pasta was cooked great and the chicken parmigiana was amazing

Easter Sunday at our favorite restaurant. As usual we sat at the bar where Maria was the bartender. Great cocktails and so accommodating. Then for piece de resistance. See pix below

Varied menu, the food & drinks came out perfect. Great attentive friendly service - the space is lovely and looks recently renovated

Late post/May 2023 - I was so excited to try this restaurant and extremely disappointed in the food. Not sure if it was because it was Mother's Day and the menu was pre-fix but the food was flavorless and over priced. Staff was attentive but unfortunately I won't be back.

Great food. Would recommend any pasta on the menu. Workers are great and the service is fast. I would eat here everyday if I had the choice

Excellent atmosphere and food. Constantly the best food and service in Westchester! Had a private party in their wine cellar, the atmosphere and staff were great! Try the Pear filled pasta and Linguine with Clams & Shrimp out of this world, you will leave satisfied and happy at that we're just at Tombolinos!!

Celebrated our 33rd Wedding Anniversary, it was Absolutely Perfect! We were first Greeted outside by the Manager, then our hostess Anna, they were both so wonderful & Friendly! Great Attentive Friendly Service! Everyone there went out of there way to ensure our Special Night was Suburb! Then there was our waiter Jose, he was so very menu knowledgeable and kept checking to make sure we were happy with our meal & if we needed anything! The Food was Fabulously Delicious! The Tiramasu was mouth watering! We will definitely be going back, and telling all our Family & Friends! thank you Victor & Myrna

If you're looking for an old school Italian Restaurant than Tombolino's in Yonkers is your place to go. Pasta dishes are really good. Chicken parm was excellent. Bartender has a heavy pour which we love. Pasta is cooked perfect. Waiter was old school like the restaurant. Very menu knowledgeable of what to order and what not to, which we always prefer. Specials were great too! I've been coming here for quite some time and intend to keep coming back. Saluti Tombolino!

Food was sooo delicious and staff were very welcoming. We came here for a baby shower! We also got here about 30 minutes before they opened but they kindly allowed us to wait inside. Overall, the food was excellent and the drinks were made exquisitely. Unfortunately I forgot to take pics of the rest of our food because it was so good, I couldn't put my fork and knife down haha. But we had salad to start off with-- it was dressed in a VERY refreshing vinaigrette. I wish I ate more of it!! Then we had our pastas-- rigatoni and pappardelle. So creamy, fresh, al dente. Then lastly, we had chicken parm and salmon with a white vinegar reduction (I think) and oh my goodness, it was delicious!!! Each dish was so filling and seasoned to perfection. We will definitely come back again when we visit the east coast!

This is probably one of the best Italian restaurants around. Everything is delicious from the cranberry walnut and pear salad to the chocolate cake. We had raspberry martinis that were made well. The salmon special and the veal sorrentino were delicious and perfectly made. The pasta was a perfect al dente and the sauce good. Would definitely recommend and look forward to visiting again when in the area.

Food: Yuck Service: Yuck Ambiance: Yuck If you want to find out what paying for overpriced bad food is like come here. Thanks for the pie that came straight from the fridge (couldn't bother to warm it up) with a miserable dollop of grocery store bought whipped cream. The chicken francaise was inedible. The service was also not great. They forgot to reset silverware and forgot a few drinks. I'm actually being tame in this review...I feel bad to poorly review a restaurant. Please, please raise your standard of food and service.

Great food and excellent service. The menu gives many choices. Beautiful ambiance. Lovely music. Very friendly.

Had a great experience. Caesar salad was great!! Had the chicken special. Chicken breast with prosciutto asparagus fresh mozzarella and a cream wine sauce. I very much enjoyed. Mom and aunt ordered pork shank osso bucco. They were not overtly impressed with their meal. Waiter was Valentino he was wonderful... All wait staff was friendly. I would definitely come back again when in area.

This is my favorite of all time!! I come here almost every week! It's the best place to go after a hard week of work and you need time to detox. Their wine selection is huge!! They also have a full bar and make the best cocktails. I have had all types of wines plus a chocolate martini and vodka and cranberry. All of their food is fabulous from their shrimp scampi to chicken franchise to the brazino to the zuppa di pesce. Everything is delicious. They always have tons of new and unique specials too!

Great food. Wonderful attentive staff and the owner really cares for the customer. I have never had a bad dish here and have had most things on the menu. It is old school Italian that is very very good.

The food was fantastic! Great portion size. Nice staff and very accommodating. My dad has a walker and the waiter couldn't be more helpful.

Great night it's was my wife birthday there was plenty food for a group of 16 people,we had a blast Jack K. The General Mgr actually help our table was very Attend to all of us just magnificent just a perfect night with Great food,great customer service I highly recommended God Bless.

We made reservations for 24 for a family get together that was very special to us. Everyone at Tombilino's was AMAZING and went out of their way to ensure that our dinner was SUPERB. We were delighted to a 5 course meal, and everything from appetizers to dessert was top notch delicious. Every one of our requests/needs were met with 5 star service as well. Our guests included elderly in wheelchairs and very small children, and we also requested both indoor and outdoor space- and Timbolino's made sure everyone was accommodated and happy. We could not be happier with the service, food, drinks, and atmosphere. Thank you to everyone at Tombilono's for making this a SUPERIOR experience for us!!!

We had dinner there tonight! Everything was simply fabulous! Greeted by many when we arrived, many wait staff constantly making sure everything is ok! We weren't sitting long, a waiter was at our table asking what we wanted to drink! Another waiter was there minutes later explaining specials. We gave our orders, food was served in good time! Very attentive staff, not more than 10 - 15 feet away, if someone looked up a service person was right there with any help necessary! Dinner was fabulous! Not our first visit, Tombolino 's never disappoints!! I recommend highly

been going there for 20yrs and love this it!!!! the food is always very good.

There is a reason why Tombolino has been around since 1977. Located in the great city of Yonkers. These guys know how to make you feel special. The owner Pietro is available to shake your hand and personally thank you for coming in. The staff are warm and attentive. The Bronzino was made to my taste very little fanfare yet tastes amazing. I tend to eat fish and veggies so it's important to me that they get it right. I don't eat steak or any treated meats. Potato croquettes was also a nice treat. They also have a great space in the cellar for group parties. I can't wait to have a group meeting here. I'll be back guys.

In town visiting friends and walked in for a quick meal. If you want friendly service and delicious food at a reasonable price this is the place for you. Clams Casino, Meatball and table side Caesar salad are amazing MUST HAVE. Chicken Rustica was very flavorful with sweet sausage, peppers left you wanting more. Wish I lived closer would visit Tombolino every week.

This is my sister's and her fiancee's favorite gourmet Italian restaurant, and although my husband and I were unable to attend today's birthday dinner celebration for my brother-in-law, Tony, I trust my sister's taste, as she's quite a fabulous cook and connoisseur on great Italian food. Since we were unable to join the family, I called and spoke with the owner, Pietro, and easily arranged for a gift card to be delivered to them as they were seated. This was very important to us, and we can't wait to dine there in person very soon! Thank you, Pietro, for efficiently helping us "be there" to celebrate (virtually, speaking). Tony was thrilled!!

Great food and the service was exceptional We will definitely be back and will be sure to bring our family and friends My husband and I thought we would try a local Italian place and we were very pleased We had the pork chops which were cooked perfectly and delicious We had the pasta with seafood it was so good I wanted to lick the plate We were not rushed which is just how we like to eat and talk the night away

It ended up being a little fancier than I anticipated so I did feel a little underdressed, now I know for next time the food was DELICIOUS & the waiter was great. The manager and even the chef came around to ensure that everything was as it should be. We will definitely be back!

They have absolutely delicious food and so authentic! My husband and I stumbled onto this Restaurant by accident and it was the greatest find ever! Everything is so delicious and the owner actually took time to come over and welcome us! We live in queens but it is worth the trip and the bridge toll every time! We won't go anywhere else!!!

Celebrated a 60th surprise birthday dinner party in their wine cellar. It was absolutely perfect. Ezekiel was accommodating and genuinely invested in making sure that everything was to my satisfaction. Oh...and there's John who was attentive, sweet and made sure that my guests were well taken care of. Presentation and food was fantastic. Needless to say, the dinner party was an absolute success!

Went to this neighborhood Italian restaurant on of all nights, New Years Eve. I have to say I'm not a fan of going out to dinner on NYE as I always feel it's rushed, and the food is sub par. We were part of a larger family dinner, and this was our first time eating there. WOW!! Let's start with the fact it was pouring rain, and I was thinking we had to look for street parking. I was actually dreading it. I was so pleased when we pulled up, and found they had valet parking - I thought, I like this place already!! Once inside, I found it warm, and cozy. The lighting was low, and comfortable. Our waiter was very good. Very knowledgeable, and friendly. Dirty dishes were cleared promptly while those still eating did not feel hurried. There was a young woman filling our water glasses, and helping with our table - we wanted for nothing. On NYE they had a pre fixe menu. pasta, beef, chicken, and sea food were well represented. They even had a gluten free pasta option. For appetizer I had the fresh mozzarella caprese - delicious!!! My main dish of chicken parmesan was the best I've ever had. It was lovely - thin with a beautiful sauce, and the cheese was perfect. My daughters had rigatoni bolognese, and penne a la vodka. They loved their meals!!! Both said, and I have to agree that this was the first time they ever walked away from an Italian dinner feeling perfectly satisfied, without feeling stuffed silly. Each course was portioned perfectly for enjoyment without excess. The desserts were smashing! I had the cannoli - what an end to the perfect meal!! My daughters had tiramisu, and chocolate cake - delish!! After dinner chef/owner Pietro stopped by our table to say hello - a very nice touch! I am so excited to have found this amazing restaurant!that serves up my favorite dishes!! It's a bit of a trip from Bergen County, but well worth the drive. We will be back soon

Wanted to celebrate my mom's birthday on Sunday March 15 unfortunately we couldn't make it...received an e-mail today with their take out menu .... dinner for 4...what an amazing meal came home to my house...appetizer...pasta...chicken...vegetable...amazing potato croquet.. fresh bread .... extra sauce and grated cheese! In a time when we are all feeling scared and not sure what the future will be this was beyond a mood lifter... thank you so much Tombolino...everyone please support our local businesses...they need us and we certainly enjoy having them!

The food served there is very fresh and delicious. The service is impeccable and the owner does greet you at your table and welcomes you. He is old school Italian, with class and charm. I recently had dinner there on Friday Nights, and get ready for "Date Night"...They have a Piano Player playing from 6:30-10:30 EVERY Friday Night

My wife and I had Valentine's day lunch today (my first time here) and it was great. The service is attentive, the food is decicious from main course to dessert and cappucino. We will definately be back!

Delicious food great service nice staff. Can't go wrong if you're in the Yonkers area! Highly recommend

The staff is good here. They are hard working and makes customers comfortable. Waiters are really nice. Food is good here. I got a veal and that was fantastic. Their wine selection is huge with full bar. They have best cocktails.

I just had dinner there after months being in quarantine. The food was great, the ambience was perfect and the staff were friendly and attentive. I will definitely go back with my entire family.
