    This was our first trip to Lombardi’s, and it will become a regular part of our restaurant rotation. We went for Christmas lunch. We were happy that we could order from the regular menu, the brunch menu or the Holiday Menu. All three of us enjoyed our cocktails and meals. The design is beautiful , which adds to the overall lovely experience.

    The restaurant is beautiful and the staff very welcoming and attentive. Perhaps it was the time or night we came but there were a lot very loud upset kids. I understand that’s not the restaurants doing but if you’re expecting a quiet evening full of conversation this may not be the place as it was very loud. The appetizers were fabulous and the Ahi Tuna was the best I have ever had! Definitely a must try! I had the Chicken Parm for my main course and unfortunately it was just adequate but still pretty good. The Broccolini as a side was tasty and the chocolate cheesecake to finish was so rich and creamy. All together we had a really nice time and the food was good for the price. I would like to come back for a happy hour perhaps or enjoy what looks like a lovely patio in the spring. I just wish it was quieter and my main dish was as good as everything else. I recommend, but go in knowing it’s more of a family friendly place than a romantic date night place.

    Antonio was our server and he was excellent. We have had Antonio as our server before and he always provides excellent and quality service. We usually order the same Burgundy wine and was looking in the by the glass section and forgot to look in the bottle section and did not see it but he remembered the name of the wine for us. We love Coppa and it is our go to.
