ITALIAN WITHOUT THE SPLURGE: My favorite here is the spaghetti Bolognese. I've ordered it many times and it never disappoints. I've also worked through several other pasta dishes and they've all been solid. The pizza is good and the meatballs are especially tasty. Bottom line, you get the quality of a sit down Italian restaurant at more affordable prices. That makes it an easy choice when you want something good without checking your budget first. They even offer bottles of wine around $30 if you want to make it feel a little more like a night out. It's truly a family run place. The husband and wife have been working here for as many years as I've been coming, and that consistency shows. They don't make their own desserts other than the cannolis, which is easy to forgive given everything else they do well. This place is a clear step above most fast casual Italian spots. Try it next time you're craving Italian. read more

Ordered carry out yesterday. The Caesar salads was drowned in dressing. The mozzarella sticks several did not have any cheese and veal parm tasted like over cooked breaded something. Door dash should not include this list of restaurants. If I could given them a zero I would what a waste of money. read more

I'm so happy that they are back! I used to visit the Fairfax location all the time and would bring family and friends there for great, quick and quality Italian food. To be honest, I've almost always just had their pizza because it is some of the best NY style, thin crust with the perfect sauce and toppings. The staff was so friendly and polite. I really like the location and the interior of the restaurant is very Italian inspired and not overly loud. The booths are actually quite private when it comes to most other restaurants. I cannot wait to return! read more

Same Italian owner for 25 years. Chicken piccata was good and their rosemary bread was yummy. Friendly staff, too. It's the kind of place you order off the overhead menu. But the casual atmosphere felt relaxing. Prices were reasonable. read more

I ordered two slices and a side of marinara sauce. The place looks to be clean, prices were midrange, and you can order from the counter and sit inside or outside if you want. I would not go out of my way to come back as my order was just ok and served a bit on the cold side for my liking. read more

Fantastic Easter meal. Wife got lamb. I got flank steak marinated. WOW. Service bit in slow side. Worth going again.

We are frequent diners. We enjoy the pizza. Ingredients are fresh! My husband loves the garlic bread and cheese. My go to is the custom made pizzas, wings, and salads. The staff is friendly from the moment you walk in. The service is quick. The ambiance is laid back. Always playing Italian music in the background. The decor could use some touch ups but the food quality is great! read more

I ordered pizza a year ago and it was burnt so I did go back for a year. Today I felt like having a nice pasta dish, so I ordered the Putaneska and the pasta was gummy. I will not eat at this restaurant again. read more

The pizza is good, though it can feel a bit pricey for what you get. The service is friendly and efficient, but on weekends, finding a place to sit can be quite challenging. read more

By far my favorite NY style pizza in Loudon County! I always get carry out so I can't say anything about dinning in but my order is always ready when I arrive and everyone is pleasant. This is now my go to spot for pizza :) read more

Been going to this place for a long time and I love their pizza! Meat lovers, vegetarian and the pomodoro special are among my favorites.

Good pizza no complaints. I will and have gone back for pizza. I have not tried other dishes. But I do love chicken parmigiana so I'll try that next time. read more

We ordered from this place for delivery last night. The food was HORRIBLE!!! We've ordered from them before, and they were OK before. However, Pomodo Pizza Pasta & More has resorted to using really cheap ingredients and boiling the heck out of their pasta to the point the pasta dishes were all mushy. I ordered the Vitello Piccata under the Veal section of their menu, and what I received was a large portion of pasta with a tiny slice of overcooked veal on top. To add insult to injury, the veal had been overcooked to the point of being rubbery, and the pasta had been boiled to the point of just being a messy, tasteless mush. My son ordered their spaghetti vongole, and instead of using fresh clams like in other mediocre-to-better restaurants, they used bits of canned clams that was rubbery and bland... My son's comment was, "Dad, this doesn't taste like vongole," before he spit out his food. The spaghetti was overcooked to mush. We had to throw out both my dish and his. We've lived in Italy and fell in love with Italian food precisely because it uses fresh or at least high-quality ingredients prepared in a very simple manner. What we received for dinner last night from Pomodoro Pizza Pasta & More would have caused the restaurant to be run out of business in any Italian neighborhood. A shame to the reputation of Italian food. read more

Perfect for a family dinner. Big portions, good price, good environment. I ordered for pick up and everything was ready exactly when they said. read more

The Baked Spaghetti is delicious! The lunch portion is plentiful, and you can expect the dinner portion to leave you with significant leftovers. Have to say that it's even better as a leftover!!! read more

Pomodoro Pizza Pasta & More - Amazing Pizza with a perfect crisp crust!! Delicious!! - Italian Near Me - Sterling, Virginia

This is one of those 'best kept secrets' kinda places - the neighborhood folks were barreling in & out with pizza, calzone, stromboli, yada, yada. And, yet we still got terrific service when we decided to eat in. I ordered ravioli - sooo good! It came with crusty Italian rolls which got immediately dipped into the sauce before I even tasted the cheesy pillows. Hubs ordered stromboil - he's a picky eater & he loved it! We both brought home leftovers - even tastier the next day. So...wonderful food, great value & a charming place to eat in or take out. We'll definitely be back! read more

This was the 4th order to Pomodoro, and to date, we have ordered just their pizza - which has been above average. We decided to venture out tonight and order their $13 wings (for 8 wings, which was a market price, I think). When Uber Eats delivered the food and we opened the package, we were not just unsatisfied - our DOG would not eat them. They were hard as a rock, and there was so little meat on them, that you could actually see more bone than meat. Unfortunately Uber Eats wouldn't remove the charge, so I am putting this out as a PSA so you don't make the same mistake ordering them. I doubt we would have received this if we were dine-in patrons, or even picking up directly. But if we are not reimbursed by them, it will be the last time we order anything from them. read more

I am going to go easy on this restaurant because I like the food and atmosphere and am a big fan of their Fairfax location. It is as close as I can get to a New York style trattoria. The prices here are a bit steep, and I found the overall presentation of the food to be pretty poor, but I also think I got the wrong things and I blame myself 100% for it. I got the Calamari and the Ziti Quattro Formaggi, and wow, is the ziti rich. Do not get this without a Pepto. The Calamari is dense and you only get the rings, no tentacles. Bummer. The owner is a nice guy, and finding out that his restaurant was endorsed by a US President helps build a reputation. It was also nice to see they now partner to Uber Eats to deliver. But for them to deliver to me would be difficult, so I will just have to make do with the tools I have right now, and go there when I want something. I am reluctant to write them off because who knows? Maybe next time I will be smarter, order something better and it will taste great! Or not... Any-who, better luck next time, I guess. Otherwise I am still not too far from the Fairfax location and will just continue to go there. read more

Was craving a steak and cheese sandwich and mozzarella sticks. The food arrived in a good amount of time but I was sooo disappointed. The sandwich was soggy and flavorless and needed more cheese. The combo which was 3 onion rings, 3 mozzarella sticks and a ton of fries was beyond terrible. The cheese was not even melted in the mozzarella sticks and the breading was soggy and falling off the hardened cheese, the onion rings were soggy and undercooked and the fries were limp and soggy and so gross. None of the combo was edible so I had to throw it out. $9 down the drain. Not sure what happened with the food here but I won't be ordering from this place again. Wanted to like It but after the food I received from them, no way. Very disappointed. read more

Food is truly excellent. Staff is courteous. But this is a pizza joint, so not much ambiance or decor.

See my previous review version for the full details about service, pasta, etc. I went back and tried the pizza after seeing many people rave about it. It's a great value -- get the extra large, and take home the leftovers. The cost difference just makes it economical because it's minimal from the other sizes. The pizza is absolutely delicious. It's just a tad bit greasy and the crust tends to get soggy after sitting 15-20 minutes. But I really liked the flavor. While Pomodoro isn't my favorite pizza in the northern Virginia area (Vocelli and Delia's get that designation), it's a close third right there along with Papa John's. (Say what you will, PJ's might be a chain, but their pizza is done right!) Pro tip: Reheated breakfast Pomodoro pizza is even better than the first time because you can really crisp it up! read more

Second time eating here and getting take out. Today 9/16 I got a chicken parmigiana sub and fries. The chicken is so thin and when fried its like eating the overcooked scraps of chicken from frying vat all hard and hard to chew! It actually cut the roof of my mouth! Totally overcooked and not edible and had no taste! Fries were ok, glad I was able to eat something. Should have gone back to get my money back! I was hoping this would be a good Italian Restaurant not impressed so far! read more

Delicious. We had shrimp Parm and calamari fradiavalo and a small pizza . The food was as good as NY AREA . Excellent

We ordered the pesto chicken pizza and the chicken fettuccine Alfredo, both were delicious. The Alfredo sauce was so creamy and exactly what I was craving. The pizza was crunchy and they did not skimp on the toppings. read more

Pomodoros is a staple of the community and one of the last great italian dining experiences in the greater dmv area.

I've never been served stale pizza before last night. 2 slices, must have been under the lights since lunch, minimum. Well we're there at 6, so really no excuses. The crust tasted like old cardboard. It was amazing that a pizza place would serve such rubbish. It did explain why the family at another table left 3/4 of a pizza and just split. The staff seemed confused by that, they must eat elsewhere. There's are 3 other places I can vouch for within 5 minutes of this establishment. Go anywhere else, this was literally the worst pizza I've ever had including sketchy frozen bake at home and plastic wrapped reheated in a microwave at work. read more

It does, I note, pay to know what you are ordering. We were a bit surprised when the Sicilian deep dish was so thick crusted, but a bit of googling reminded us that Sicilian pizza is toppings on a focaccia... So a lot of bread. Setting aside that little bit of confusion, overall things were pretty tasty. The smaller pizza with artichokes was perfect with a nice little spice to it. The meatballs were a good size, the sauce just needed a little oomph to bring it up to the level of everything else. read more

The guy behind the register told me they were closed at 10:15 pm and website and door say 11 pm. This the third time this has happened to me. I live in neighborhood and every time I walk in he say they are closed. That's not a way to run a business. I will never go back to restaurant because of poor customer service. Below is picture of the place and it open sig n. read more

I know it was New Year's, and the traffic was probably bad but I recently lost my husband and I decided to order pizza and have it delivered. I was a little disappointed because it was very cold and the microwave does not make it better. I've ordered from you before, but I understand it's a holiday read more

Something has changed over the past few years with this place. The sauce is different, the meatballs have changed, and the pizza has slipped a bit. It honestly tastes like nothing is made in house now and that's a shame because it used to be so good previously. Everything was fresh and now that's just not the case. read more

C'mon a tomato sauce that most closely resembles diluted tomato soup? It seems nearly impossible to find a good Italian restaurant around Ashburn. Giovanni's in Leesburg was quite good until one of the partners left to start his own restaurant. They were better as one cohesive restaurant. I'd love to hear suggestions for good, but affordable, Italian restaurants with a hearty simmered tomato sauce. read more

This place is decent - nothing to write home about, but gets the job done. The tortellini is pretty standard, but still hits the spot. Carbonara is classic and tasty. The Buffalo chicken pizza is delicious and reminded me of my college days (though when reheated the chicken was very tough, not too surprising though). Walk up to a counter and order with booths you can sit up, but we did takeout. We will order from them again. read more
