My wife and I have been to Sweet Tomato's three times, this last experience sealed it. The food was great and the service even better. The menu is large enough to satisfy but not so extensive that the presentation suffers. Kirby and Joe were fantastic working our table and all the others in harmony. Jimmy the owner was ever present... More

My husband and I recently ate at Sweet Tomato just because we had never tried it. We were greeted by staff who said they would find a table for us on a Saturday night. Because it was early, I expected no problem. We had been told that the food was good by people on the island but the prices did... More

Sweet Tomato's is known by Shelter Island visitors and residents alike as a great place to enjoy consistent quality lunch or diner in a friendly atmosphere. We prefer going off-season when there is no wait and you get more attention from owner Jimmy and the staff. Only downside is that the food will sometimes take some time to get to... More

We usually go to this restaurant about once a week, usually when we crave pepperoni pizza and a peroni. Jimmy makes a great pie and the service is always spot on. We have also had the prix fixe which is a great value. This is a family owned spot and doesn't disappoint!

. I always base my reviews on several times at a restaurant since any place can just have a bad night and I always give a restaurant another chance but I have been here several times and it is always consistent problems. It seems that there is no one overseeing the restaurant. Many times the owner is there- says hello-... More

Went here after a walk from the north ferry...we were very thirsty. The bartender/owner was very pleasant and engaging in conversation. He hooked the ladies up with one of his specialty "italian" cocktails ...a very refreshing combination of Preseco and a few other ingredients shaken and served like a Martini. We recommend this drink. We decided to double-down on the... More

The food was delicious. Lovely restaurant. We were there on a Sunday and pretty much the only ones in the place as it was late in the season. I am sure the place is packed in the summer. Service was good. The risotto was incredible and I like that they serve wines from local wineries. Highly recommend a trip to... More

We asked our waitress, one of the family that owns the restaurant, if the pollock on the menu was local. She said she picked it up from the boat that morning herself, and it was perfect. We split that, the ravioli appetizer, and a desert, and it was plenty for two. Good wines by the glass, and local beers on... More

Food was good. Fresh and simple, nothing exceptional, yet tasty and nice service. My boyfriend ordered Fish and liked it, although it was overcooked. I ordered a plate of simple Pasta and liked it. Pasta was home made and fresh and tomato sauce was tasty. We also shared one desert and it was good. All in all - service as... More

One of the best meals EVER!!! Busy Labor Day weekend, a local resident recommended Sweet Tomatoes. We decided to give it a try (after walking out of the deserted Dory) and right away were greeted by a friendly hostess. Since we didn't have reservations, she found us two seats at the bar. I had the seafood risotto - to s... More
