Went with my wife on Friday - she was starving, but it was kind of early for me. She was craving a steak, and, knowing her aversion to any visible fat, I suggested the filet, which I finally talked her into despite the cost. I had been in a parmigiana mood for a few weeks and went with their veal version.... My wife LOVED her steak, she had a stuffed baked potato along with it and I didn't get to taste it but it looked very well put together. My Veal was lukewarm and in pieces - battered, pan-fried, and perched up on the overcooked capellini and drowned in a tasteless (Sysco?) marinara with unremarkable semi-molten mozzarella. Our waitress did her job, but not much beyond it. The ambiance was very nice - I have always loved the low light/dark wood of this place. 6.4/10 read more

My wife and I have enjoyed lunch several times at DiMartino's in Covington, but tonight we did dinner. DiMartino's takes on an enhanced elegant ambiance in the evening and the menu reflects this. Service was very good as always. My wife enjoyed her favorite lasagna, which was quite good as usual. I had the salmon with vinaigrette glaze and it was quite good as well. It's easy to get salmon too done, but no such problem here. Succulent and tasty, just as it should be, with the glaze adding just the right zesty edge. The house Pinot Grigio was excellent with the fish. I also had a very good Caesar salad that complimented the fish and the broccoli side. In this case, the broccoli was somewhat tough with a slightly overpowering parmesan covering. Perhaps a little more butter and a little less cheese would be better? On the whole, dinner was great and we highly recommend DiMartino's for both lunch and dinner. read more

Update: great dinner. I ordered the eggplant parmigiana. It came with a great salad. The eggplant was delicious. The dinner grilled garlic chicken was also delicious. My first time here, I ordered the chicken parm sandwich. I was expecting 1 piece of chicken pounded flat and breaded. It was all cut up on the bread with very little cheese. Not impressed. read more

Service was slow and unattractive. The food was worse, I had the worst spaghetti and meatball I have ever tasted. The red sauce tasted like tomatoe soup. Meatballs were not seasoned and tasted very low quality . We will not return. The restaurant was not clean dust and chairs were visible had food on them. read more

Food was excellent. We started with a delicious gumbo. I had the eggplant parm with a yummy salad. Hubs had the lasagna and said it was one of the best he's ever had. Our server was Dylan an he was lovely. We will definitely go back read more

Di Martino's in Covington is not your typical Di Martino's. They all have a delicious menu but in Covington it's a huge step up. If you have never been for dinner I suggest you go. read more

Awesome visit to DiMartinos. Sericce was meh because our waitress was too chatty with another table but the food was superb. Gumbo was excellent. Oyster sandwich was superb! Sorry I just got a half! Everything here is good. Neighborhood favorite. read more

Poor management. Complain about music choice and loudest. She didn't offer to Change the music for the customers. She kept questioning us why we didn't like the music. When we told her, we just think the music sucks and she kept on questioning us why. The music should match the ambience of the Restaurent not a hip-hop. BTW. Do you think the hostess could smile a little. read more

Stopped here for the first time. Had their redfish with side salad and gumbo. Not overly busy with great service. House wine was very good. Fish and gumbo were very good but plating could be improved. I'll be back but will probably try one of their Italian dishes. read more

Husband and I were in Covington for one night . We returned to DiMartino's as we haven't been here in 3 years. Our waitress was fabulous! I had a roast beef po boy , dressed and my husband had a fried shrimp po boy , dressed. I had an Abita Amber. Our food came out quickly and was delicious!!! Love DiMartino's!!! read more

Very appointment in my order from DiMartino's. First of all I grew up eating DiMartino's at their original location. Matter of fact we would visit with the owner Mr Pete when we went in for lunch. I love the roast beef, grilled chicken salad, spaghetti & meatballs, eggplant sticks, onion rings and the list goes on. Now, that I have established that I am a regular at the establishment here is my review for tonight. We ordered from door dash. We ordered roast beef poboy, shrimp poboy, onion rings & spaghetti & meatballs. The bill was right at $100. We received the order and the poboys were not dressed (as stated in the description). Wow, all I can say is a plain sandwich is just that very PLAIN! We were very disappointed so I called the restaurant & was told that I should have called them after placing my order & requested that the sandwiches dressed. How stupid is that!! Why would I call & request the sandwiches dressed. It states that they are dressed. I honestly feel that they should have send me new sandwiches but nothing was offered for their mistake. I know that the Terrytown location would have fixed my ordered. Very disappointed in my experience at the Covington location. Some might say "how hard would it be to dress your own sandwiches & I would have done that had I had lettuce & tomato in the house, but I didn't have any on hand. Again very disappointed in one of my favorite childhood memories. read more

Everything was excellent, including our server, Jami. Since it was Monday, hubby ordered red beans & rice with smoked sausage (great flavor) and I decided on the roast beef po-boy combo which comes with a cup of gumbo and potato salad, all very delicious. Not that it was a problem for us, but noticed the hostess stayed on her cell phone the entire time we were seated (over an hour). She wasn't speaking only scrolling. Kind of annoying as we were not the only ones that noticed. read more

DiMartino's USED to have the best muffuletta in Covington, but please don't waste your time or money on the muffuletta today. The muffuletta is absolutely horrible, not warmed or toasted. They've gotten so skimpy with the olive salad it's a shame and the meat on the sandwich is at least a third less. I told the manager who was barely in her 20's about my experience, no apology or offer to correct or remake my muffuletta. I WILL NEVER GET A MUFFULETTA AGAIN from DiMarino's in Covington. I emailed the Covington restaurant twice, no response. Then I contacted the DiMartino's in Terrytown(the first restaurant) on the Westbank, told the lady manager my experience and she took all information because she said someone will be contacting me. NOT ONE PERSON REACHED OUT TO ME. But the DiMartino'so in Terrytown and Algeirs offers the large muffuletta for $25.99 verses the 45% size offered in Covington for $14.50. The muffuletta in Covington is no value for the money spent. So do yourself a favor skip the Covington DiMartino's and if your in Algiers orTerrytown try their muffulettas. You'll see exactly what I'm talking about! If any knows of any restaurants in western St Tammany that serves a good muffuletta, please let me know. read more

I used to love this place. I keep trying, but it's just not the same. They seem to be cutting back on everything, and the prices are high. This time, the cup of gumbo wasn't good. The two shrimp in it were undercooked, and it had huge pieces of undercooked okra in it. Ordered a large sweet potato fries. They were cold, and the portion was pitiful for about $6. The Veal Parmesan dinner was very mediocre -- small, thick pieces of veal were not too tender with an extra small portion of pasta underneath. The tomato sauce was fairly tasteless. I'm not a big eater, but I had no trouble at all eating this portion. The Chicken Parmesan dinner only came with one chicken breast. I usually enjoy their Ceasar salad, but this time there was hardly any Parmesan cheese on it. It makes all the difference in the world. The muffaletta was REALLY small, sparse, and not very heated. One quarter of it had one huge chunk of pickled cauliflower on it and almost no olive salad. I don't eat cauliflower, so oh well... I'm getting really tired of having this kind of experience here, so I'm not sure when I will be back. Soft drinks are overpriced at $3.50. Be careful if you have a party of 7 or more. They will automatically add a 25% tip, which is outrageous. This is why I NEVER go there with a large group. read more

The atmosphere was very nice. The food was incredible...the Ribeye just melts in your mouth and cooked to perfection, the loaded baked potato was yummy; the popcorn shrimp, cheeseburger and fries were also yummy. Our waitress Charlene was extremely nice and took very good care of us. We will definitely be back! read more

Food is tasty, however $4.50 for a large French fry is too much for what you actually get. I also don't know why their muffaletta is never thoroughly heated, the cheese is NEVER melted and I always have to put it in the oven when I get home instead of just diggin in! read more

It was my first time at this amazing restaurant and had the most delicious muffaletta, gumbo, & and Potatoe salad. It was a feast of flavor in my mouth that I will crave forever . Again. Our waitress Alicia treated us royally and can't wait to come back. read more

Their prices are OUTRAGEOUS! Went a few weeks ago and Spaghetti & Meatballs $19, grilled chicken $23, veal parm $29! Won't be back again!

Ordered a muffaletta today to go got home and it was cold in the middle. I guess business is slow or they cut back on things because this was a sad little muffaletta. read more

After dining here for years, I'm finally about done with it. I went two times in the last week. The first time, I ordered two muffaletta's and a fried eggplant appetizer to go. There was almost no meat on the muffalettas. The eggplant was pale yellow and undercooked. Went back today. Bowl of gumbo took longer to bring out than anyone else's dinner, and it wasn't hot. $23.50 butterfly shrimp dinner only had 10 shrimp on it, and they were mushy. Sweet potato fries were very soft, greasy, and not very hot. I didn't enjoy my meal whatsoever, and for these prices, I'm not going back. It's too inconsistent. A soft drink is overpriced at $3.50. Even when I get the muffaletta and eat it there, it's usually not heated enough to melt the cheese or crisp up the bread, and almost nothing between the bread. Every time I go now, there are fruit flies or regular flies attacking my food. Today it was a regular fly. I covered my plate with napkins while I was eating. Service was really good today, but I've been disappointed in the food too many times over the past few months. This place has gone from about an 8 out of 10 to a 3 out of 10. The mandatory gratuity for parties of 7 or more, ranging from 22% to 25% (someone else said it was 30% for a party) is outrageous, and I won't do it. Today, I read a comment by someone who said that the owner keeps all of the "to go" tips, and he takes a portion of the regular server tips. Good for him. I'm done. read more

Do not tip ToGo orders , as the owner keeps the tips ! Also keeps part of employee tips ! Gordon R. even thinks that's pretty shitty.

Went in during a traffic jam yesterday. They were short handed but the wait staff had it covered. Heath sat us & got our drink order. We split the shrimp platter, broccoli supreme, Ceasar, and subbed O-rings. All was very good. Hot, well prepared. Although shorthanded in the DR, we had excellent service. Heath was helpful in our dinner choices. The kitchen was clean and on top of things. This is the 2nd time since COVID and they are clean, and careful to take the extra steps necessary to ensure proper sanitation. DiMartino's has come a long way since we ordered on the line at grand opening. They are proving to be consistent in what they do. The Redfish is still large and good. Also, a great pour on the Pinot! read more

DiMartinos has gone down hill. I was a very frequent customer, eating here 2 to 3 times a week. Today, my meal was disgusting. My order arrived about 2 minutes after the waitress put it in. They rushed the fried shrimp for my Po-Boy causing them to be seriously undercooked. The same thing happened last week with the fried fish. Today's gumbo was not the usual. It was bland, much lighter in color and overly thick for gumbo, not edible. I could go on about the bland tomato sauce and skimpy muffulettas but today was the last. read more

We love DiMartino's. The spaghetti and Lasagna is the best.. Ask for Tony and he'll set you up and treat you like he has know you his whole life.. See you all soon. Sweet tea is my favorite... read more

I love everything about this restaurant except the fact that there are no hand towels in the men's room. The blow dryer is insufficient.

The food was incredible. Large portions. Hot and delicious. We had a waitress in training, probably should have had more training before she was released on the public. read more

Flavorless and overpriced! Our waiter was nice but gave a clueless impression! Ambiance is nice but the food is extremely overpriced for nothing special AT ALL. $18.99 for a small piece of grilled chicken (probably less than 3oz) that had so much lemon that it was hard to eat, served with lukewarm broccoli that didn't even melt the glob of butter they threw on top with crappy parmesan probably from the green bottle. $12 something for super paper thin over cooked onion rings. $20.45 for Eggplant parm that was sliced so thin that they must get ten meals from one small eggplant and it was greasy with glob of half melted mozzarella (didn't taste like the fresh but the rubbery kind) topped with flavorless marinara over angel hair. It's like they are spreading the food as thin as possible! That's fine but then the price should reflect that. Very disappointing! IMO Either the chef has no taste buds or he doesn't care about putting out a good product or both! We won't be back! read more

We were seated immediately and received our drinks in a timely manner. I ordered the fried shrimp salad. What I ordered versus what I received were not the same. Someone got the type of salad & toppings wrong, but got the shrimp part right. (they were good). The music was too loud. If you have to raise your voice to speak to someone sitting across from you then that's a problem. read more

Quick service . Good food. Like the muffulettas the potatoes salad and po-boys.. Been going to the Gen, Degaullle location for years.

A horrible excuse for a muffuletta NO MEAT. this was a to go order. You would get 4 times as much meat on a Subway 6 inch sandwich. i Wish I could give less than 1 star!! read more

DiMartino's - This is a muffuletta that they are famous for my wife ate there and brought this home for me what a disgrace. - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Covington, Louisiana

Good food, friendly service and a relaxing atmosphere. Love their fish entrees and broccoli medley. Nice bar and good vibes.

Food is extremely inconsistent..... one visit it's great! Next visit.... You could literally throw it in the trash! We used to go every weekend..... then it was so inconsistent, We only went once a month. Now we're every six months and after tonight.....wont be back. Restaurants are way too expensive to serve crappy meals. read more

Nice ambiance, excellent service, waiter and wait staff. Food was not on par with the prices, but not bad. A plus for me was the angel pasta. We got it without request. My wife gave a thumbs up to the Gumbo; it was too 'okraie' for me. read more

I prospered the spaghetti with meatballs and my husband ordered the lasagna. Both were generous portions as well as delicious. Service was prompt and friendly! Highly recommend! read more

Central Grocery May have invented the Muffaletta, but DiMartino's has perfected it. Perfect amount of olive salad, olive oil, cheese and meat. Most importantly THE PERFECT THICKNESS AND TEXTURE OF THE BREAD. It wasn't so thick, doughey and chewy that you felt like you could have sliced one side of the bread in half to make the sandwich. We ordered out and picked it up to eat at home. Usually something is lacking when you carry out instead of dining in, but I cannot imagine the food tasting much better than it di3 of us split 2 of them and there was a 1/4 left over. 2 in our group had salads and we all shared tastes of each other's food. The chicken Italiano and fried shrimp salads were enormous and the dressing was fresh and deliciously balanced. We'll definitely be back to dine in. 6/26/2020-DiMartino's Famous New Orleans Muffulettas, Covington. Is definitely not what I remember from the 1980's in Gretna. Had a most wonderful dinner tonight with the family and the foo, service and ambiance couldn't have been better. This is way more than the po-boy and muffuletta stop. Grilled redfish, trout, salmon and full service bar in addition to all the wonderful sandwiches, fried seafood and other items I would have expected. The grilled trout is highly recommended. read more

The Service was a little slow, but the food was excellent. Got the smoked bacon burger with red beans.

Food is alway good and nice size. Always clean and greeted well. Eat there often.

DiMartino's is one of those fall back restaurants. The type of place where you and your wife/girlfriend are in the car and you ask her "where do you want to eat? and she says "I don't care" and after you suggest 10 place that she rejects, you end up here. Why? Because it's comfortable, it's familiar and the food is solid. DiMartino's is a local chain that specializes in Muffulettas but has seafood platters, poboys, gumbo, burgers, pasta and other neighborhood type dishes. I had half a muffuletta and the sweet potato fries. The muffuletta is solid with a decent amount of olive salad(The olive salad makes a muffuletta) and the fries were perfectly crisp fluffy pillows. The service is good and the prices were reasonable. The next time the ladyfriend and I are driving around on the Northshore and she says "I don't care where we eat" I'm not making suggestions, I'm just driving here. read more
