The perfect place for pizza and cocktails on a Monday afternoon. Will definitely be back again!

Last night we returned to Tomatina, San Mateo, for the first time in over a year or two. Boy what a surprise. After going there pretty much regularly since it first opened, the experience declined after they reopened for inside dining post pandemic. The level of service had declined to such an abysmal level that dinner there was no longer an option for my wife and me. Last night's dinner was incredible. The food was still fantastic and so was the service. I had the calzone and my wife had the baked pasta bolonguise (sp?). Both were excellent, as was the desert, apple crisp with vanilla gelato. The service provided by Jaime, and the hostess/manger Andrea was attentive and fabulous. It was great to find good Italian food again at a reasonable price. We'll definitely put them back on our list of restaurants for our Friday night dinners.

Had dinner with a few friends. There is street parking and a garage. The place was not too busy. It was spacious. Our server was professional and attentive. We ordered spaghetti and meatballs, cheese ravioli, shiitake mushroom and sausage pizza, Caesar salad (huge portion), and roasted salmon. All of it was delicious. All great portions. Looking forward to coming back to try the other items on the menu.

My boyfriend and I came in last night for happy hour. It's from 4-7pm and we arrived around 6:30pm. There was some sort of school event so there were a few families there. We decided to sit at the bar for a lowkey night. We each ordered a glass of wine along with calamari and meatballs, all from the happy hour menu. The prices are good and well-portioned. Luckily, the servers were attentive since the bar is a bit out of the way from the other customers. I loved both dishes and they threw in complimentary bread too! The Sauvignon Blanc was refreshing, I recommend it!

Went to Tomatina for happy hour and it was pretty good. We had the meatballs, the bruschetta and the calzone. All were pretty tasty it had a nice authentic Italian taste to it. The calzone is not on the happy hour menu and I didn't think for $17 it was worth the price but it was a solid calzone. The beers are $5 during happy hour which is not bad. What I really liked about tomatina was the service! Our waiter Giovani good guy very cordial and recommended some popular items and he was very attentive to our needs. The ambiance is cool as well, I like the brick oven that just gives that great pizza smell when u come in and i i liked the big windows perfect for people watching. All in all I would go back to tomatina for happy hour but I would stick to that happy hour menu as it can get pricey.
