" I visited Toma Restaurant & Bar last week and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the dishes. I ordered the squid ink pasta, which had the right amount of saltiness and was cooked to perfection. My dinner companion had the lamb chops, which were juicy and flavorful. The service was friendly, but we did experience a longer wait time for our entrees, which was a bit disappointing. Nevertheless, the ambiance was great, and I loved the outdoor seating. I would definitely return for another meal and try the ravioli next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Dinner at Toma was quite a treat! The food was flavorful, and I truly felt like I was in Italy. The stuffed squash blossoms were a delightful appetizer. For my entrée, I had the crispy skin salmon; it was cooked perfectly and paired well with the lemon aioli. The atmosphere was lovely, making it an excellent spot for a date night. I appreciate the attention to detail from the staff, even offering wine pairings with our meals. I will be returning again soon to try more of the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Toma after hearing amazing reviews, and it certainly lived up to the hype! The ambiance has a homely feel, perfect for an intimate dinner. I opted for the seafood pasta, which was fresh but lacked a little seasoning. The appetizers were great, particularly the calamari, which had a crisp exterior and tender inside. I had a delightful experience overall, but some dishes could use a bit more flavor. I would come back and try the other pastas on the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a delightful dinner at Toma with family. The ambiance is softly lit and warm, perfect for long conversations over a meal. We were impressed by the extensive wine list and opted for a shareable bottle. The appetizers were commendable, especially the squash blossoms. My entree was the lasagna, which looked and tasted elegant, although I expected more depth in flavor. The staff was attentive but not smothering, which made for a pleasant experience. Overall, it was a nice evening! " (*Curated Review*)

" Toma is a culinary gem! We visited for a friend's birthday, and everyone enjoyed their meals. The tuna cones and fried olives were stellar as starters. For the main course, I went for the chicken with risotto. The chicken was perfectly cooked, but the risotto could have had more flavor. The atmosphere was cozy, making it a perfect spot for celebration. The service was good, but we had to wait longer than expected for our desserts, which put a slight damper on the night. Nevertheless, I would visit again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Toma has been my go-to place for Italian cravings. Their risotto is divine and something I look forward to every time I visit. I usually go for the dinner special, and it never fails to impress. The ambiance is stylish yet comfortable. Friendly service adds to the overall experience, although the wait can sometimes be long when it’s busy. Still, the quality of the food makes it worth it each time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow, what a fantastic experience at Toma! My husband and I went for a romantic dinner, and everything from the delicious food to the sleek ambience made it memorable. I enjoyed the crispy salmon, which was cooked just right. The combination of flavors was delightful. The service was friendly yet professional. We ended with the berry tart, which was the highlight of my meal. A huge thank you to the staff for making our night special! " (*Curated Review*)
