Established in 1991, Pomodoro Café was born from a desire to

to bring bring hearty, authentic Italian cuisine to Gainesville.

Benvenuto!

Owned and managed by Italian native Chefs, Pomodoro Café is a blend of Italian conviviality, our “Cibo di Casa” (homemade food) tradition, and the ambiance of a “Trattoria”.

Pomodoro Cafe’s elegant yet casual atmosphere is a place where families and friends can gather around a table together and share a robust meal while laughing and enjoying each other’s company.

All of our authentic Italian dishes are cooked to order using fresh, local ingredients and seafood. You can often spot our gourmet pizza dough being hand-tossed and placed in our stone oven.

Many of our loyal customers rave about some of our signature pasta dishes like Mamma’s Lasagna, Chicken Parmigiana, and the Frutti Di’ Mare Seafood Combo. Guests love our fresh baked focaccia bread served with our secret recipe dipping sauce and enjoy our exceptional wine selection and ice cold draft and bottled beers. Whether you join us in our dining room, on our all-season patio, or stop by to pick up one of our daily specials ...
