deceptive name and food, there is nothing Italian about this place, menu or service absolutely the worst I have ever had in any food category, I can't even give it a name for what was served to us other than a different twist of frijoles and the like. I told the waitress of the disappointment and she flipped me off... more

We liked the decor, casual atmosphere, and Italian music. But the service was poor, and the food had a peculiar taste that we couldn't identify. Was it bad garlic or rancid olive oil? My "spaghetti with garlic and olive oil" was served in a deep bowl and looked like a colorless, unappealing glob of stuck-together spaghetti. Olive oil seemed absent,... more

Had chicken parm. and the chicken was not even breaded. Seemed like they used food from Costco and warmed it up. The staff was really nice. more

We were dining late enough on a Saturday night that we did not want a heavy meal--otherwise we would have ordered one of the pasta dishes which looked very good indeed. We ordered their house specialty pizza which was to our minds very much like a Margarita Pizza--made with gorgonzola. Yum! It was just what we hoped it would be,... more

Each of us had a different item and everyone enjoyed their meal. Our party had baked rigatoni, fettucine alfredo, cheese ravioli, pizza, and fettucine alla lombardi. Portions size was generous but not too large, garlic bread with meal was okay. more

Had dinner at Lombardi's Monday, June 1, 2009. Went early, in fact were the first seated for dinner. The atmosphere was typical Italian but comfortable. The restaurant is located on a side street so there is no view. Yes, the salad was small and rather simple. However, the entree was delicious! I had linguini with their creamy clam sauce. My... more

The folks working in this restaurant were really nice and the service was good. The problem was that the Italian food was very mediocre. The garlic -cheese bread was good. The pizza was only ok. If you go, try something other than the pizza. I more

My husband and I ate dinner here one night, both of us craving italian food. We were greeted by a waitress who just kept smiling(did not know English). Another girl sat us, but was puzzled when I asked about their antipasto salad, and then a man came over to serve us. All the staff were friendly, but it was odd... more

My husband and I went there for dinner during the week and we both had a fabulous meal. I had the seafood pasta, which was excellent. Their marinara sauce and white sauce were both very tasty. The service was awesome- the waitress was wonderful and attentive, and really seemed to love her job. Next time we go to Cambria, we're... more

Try the Cambria Favorite pizza. Be sure to take a hard look at their specials - can't go wrong. Great food and a fun waitress. Cook very friendly too. Nice, clean restroom - always a key to the kitchen. Hard to park close as it is next to the post office. Highly recommend. more
