Your typical Italian place. Nothing I've had here has been amazing but everything has been good. The prices are good and they often run specials. more

Four of us went to Pomodoro's on a Friday night. Reviews were definitely mixed. One said the gnocchi was excellent, one had a pizza which was just okay and two had the spaghetti which was pretty awful, totally tasteless with little spices, garlic, salt. I won't go back. Spoke with the owner in what I considered a very civil tone... more

I usually get pasta with seafood when I visit the Pomodoro, and I have not been disappointed. Is it the best Italian restaurant in the world? No--but I can't think of one in Gainesville that is significantly better. I highly recommend it. more

They have the best pizza~ they have kind of froo froo individual pizza's with all kinds of trendy toppings, but the old fashioned pepperoni is really great. They have an excellent antipasto, EXCELLENT, and the waitstaff is very good. Their deserts are UNREAL, if you have room. If you don't save room , take something home, honestly, you won't regret... more
