    A long-time favorite for us. The food is always excellent and a new manager has taken over. Staff seems better trained as a result as I observed more of them taking care to ensure their customers understood the menu, were enjoying their food, etc. Very busy tonight so took a bit longer for our food to arrive but it was delicious, as always.

    Trombinos always has great food and has been a favorite restaurant of ours for 40 years. We enjoyed a fantastic dinner this evening celebrating a 70th birthday and Greg was a wonderful server. Everything was exactly as ordered in a prompt manner. Thanks for a delightful dining experience!!

    ALWAYS DEPENDABLY GOOD! The portions are always big and commensurate with the price. We had a new server and he did very well for a table of 9 people. Most people had pasta dishes while I had the pork chop which was excellent. Desserts were good and from a wide variety of choices. Kids were treated well, also.

    Decided to give this restaurant a second chance after my wife and myself’s unpleasant first time. So we booked a reservation for my brothers birthday and specifically stated it in the reservation. No one said a thing. The server really seemed like she didn’t care. It honestly seemed like we were a burden to the staff for being there. Lastly, the manager stopped by to ask how everything was and if I had finished with plate and before I could even answer, he was already walking away with my bowl. My table was flabbergasted and thought it was a joke. We took it as this establishment did not want us there any longer.
