Best Italian Restaurants in Pomona

Good excellent. Waiter Daniel made the night very special. He was absolutely the best.

Been coming here for YEARS. Never a bad meal or experience.

Been enjoying this restaurant for about 20 yrs now. They have spent some time refreshing the restaurant and it looks great. Wish it had a larger bar because there are never empty seats for two when me and my best friend dine there. Tonight night was no different on that front. We had our cocktails at our table and enjoyed wine with our meal. Mix on the cocktails was divine! The food was spectacular as usual. You should always try one of their homemade pasta and sauce dishes. We did parpadelle and lasagna. Delicious and two of their staples. We also had some of their fresh baked bread and dipping sauces and split a perfectly dressed tutti salad. We have tried many of their dishes - steaks, fish, vegetarian options. All to date have been spectacular. When we come to Claremont, it is our favorite treat! Tonight we had the added bonus of the tree lighting festivities and you definitely get a good view from many seats in the place as well as a great view as you enter and exit. Makes for a lovely backdrop photo as you exit.

The service at this restaurant was truly outstanding! Our server was exceptional—friendly, knowledgeable, and full of genuine smiles that made our dining experience even more enjoyable. They offered helpful suggestions that hit the mark, adding to the overall warm and welcoming atmosphere. The Cioppino was absolutely delicious, with perfectly cooked seafood and a sauce that delivered incredible depth of flavor. The tomato base had a rich, savory goodness with just the right kick of spiciness at the end—perfect for soaking up with the delicious bread. The branzino was beautifully flaky and tender, though the dish could have benefited from a bit more seasoning to elevate the flavors. Similarly, the sides of roasted potatoes and spinach, while well-cooked, felt a bit underwhelming. A touch of spices or a hint of acidity could have really brought them to life. The tiramisu was light, creamy, and absolutely delicious—a perfect sweet note to end the meal! Overall, a wonderful dining experience with some truly standout moments. A few tweaks to the seasoning here and there, but all in all this place is an absolute home run!

Had reservations, was seated on time. Service was great, food great. Was expecting to order a plate of turkey dinner didn’t know it was a package to purchase, email I received previously made it seem that you could order a turkey dinner plate. My husband was happy, he wanted Italian food. Only the two of us it worked out.
