Had many good, tasty meals here! I get concerned though when a signature dish - homemade lasagna- comes out of the kitchen still frozen in the middle. It's usually busy & loud but the staff is friendly. Try not to ruin your dinner on the AYCE breadsticks! read more

Food and service was great. Reasonable prices. Pizza, Ribs, and greek salad very good! Good kids menu too.

The breadsticks are like culinary magic...sooo delicious. We came in with a group of 20, and they seated us promptly and had our food out quickly. The staff was great, and the manager even came over to check on us (I'm a fan of that). The spaghetti was excellent, and the pizza was perfect. We've been here a couple times, and will definitely go back if in the area again! read more

Great place to eat, love the salads and stromboli, always a full parking lot . Enough said.

Best breadsticks in the world! Spaghetti is also really good and the portions are massive for what you are paying.

I don't know what they put in the bread sticks or the cheese spread but it's addictive. We're thrilled everytime we make the 40 mile trip to visit this place. Pizza was awesome and we can't wait to come back. read more

Over priced and food is, on a good day average. It sucks to have to drive to Detroit to get good Italian. Not much good food to be found in howell. read more

We always enjoy dinner at Tomato Brothers. The chicken Greek salad and a basket of bread sticks (seriously good bread sticks!) are my happy place here. The planked whitefish is my husband's favorite. My son enjoys their pizza. The cheesecake is amazing. The reasons I give it 4 stars instead of 5: Always a long wait to be seated, service is efficient but not extra friendly, prices are a tad high, and the noise level is rather high so conversation can sometimes be tough, especially with more than 4 people. But overall a great family friendly spot for delicious food. And those bread sticks. Did I mention the bread sticks? read more

Crazy good chicken picatta, may be best ever. Breadsticks and Greek salad never disappoint, always the best! Do your belly a favor, eat here - often! read more

I've been eating here for decades and it's always amazing. Service is great, food is tasty and all reasonable priced. There are lots of options for kids and the atmosphere is fun. My husband had his birthday dinner there last night and when we sang happy birthday everyone joined in and clapped afterward. We even had tables saying 'and many more'...so cool. Love it there! read more

While visiting relatives in Milford area (we are from PA) we were taken to Tomato Brothers. We loved it! Great food and plenty of it. We go there every time we visit. Great atmosphere and the team there are wonderful. Five stars because I can't give 10. Excellent value. See you in July. read more

Every local knows you won't find better breadsticks around! However, you can't hang your hat on breadsticks alone. Anything with red sauce I would caution diners as their take in red marinara type sauce is very sweet. May or may not be your thing. Other dishes like chicken piccata are excellent. Service is good and nice atmosphere. read more

Their breadsticks are AMAZING. You will not be able to eat just one that's for sure. Order them. You will not be disappointed. They have a huge menu but their food is just ok. They should stick with Italian and not try and be everything to everyone and create some really classic dishes. There's just too much from pizza to burgers to reubens. read more

For all the yelp hype, we were disappointed. The breadsticks and sauces were great, however when you put it on flavorless chicken, old seafood or over-cooked improperly drained pasta it turns out mediocre at best. There are much better Italian restaurants in the area. read more

The breadsticks were the topping on a beautiful meal. We stopped while we were shopping and enjoyed every morsel. We all had a variety of dishes from the pizza which was excellent to the lemon chicken which was perfection. We now have a spot to eat when shopping. read more

The best breadsticks ever. I had the shrimp and scallop fett. and the wife had chicken parm. Both dishes were very tasty.

Food is amazing breadsticks and cheese dip is a must. Customer service exceeds all expectations. Which is the reason this place is always packed. read more

Tomato Brothers - Hawaiian pizza - Italian Near Me - Howell, Michigan

Excellent breadsticks and garlic cheese dip, might be the best in the state. Huge portions and a large menu allows for many options. The service has always been ok, the place has the feel of a mom and pop Italian restaurant. read more

Shrimp and scallops fettuccine is wonderful every time. Rolls(bread sticks) are great and pizza is OK. Strangely, as good as the bread sticks are the next day the flavor is almost gone?? read more

Ordered 4 servings of their terrific bread sticks to go. When I picked them up there was a slight delay while they processed my credit card. I signed the receipt and left with my sticks. 20 minutes later Kelly calls to tell me about a mix up with my bill and another diners and to check my account. As I start to check, Kelly calls back to tell me that she will comp my bill. Fantastic customer service. Will be going back soon. This time to sit down. read more

I forgot how great their food is.....living in Howell. My favorites are Chicken Piccata and Chopped Sirloin. Sometimes you take for granted the things that are right there in front of you! read more

Lunch was very good. Italian chopped salad is enough for two meals. Hubby said Stromboli was good. Bread sticks are unbelievable.

Went here with a friend for lunch got bread sticks they were so good along with their maraniaria sauce that tasted home made. We order one calzone and they are so big that we split it and still had some to take home . The restaurant inside was peaceful and very nice looking ,friendly staff also. The price is decent because you do get a lot food so be ready for left overs. read more

This was our first and last time ever going to this place. Our waitress was the worst She never brought our silverware brought our breadsticks by reaching around from another table then left us to eat them with our hands it took us asking three other people before we got plates and silver . When dinner finally came the chicken was dry as if it was mircowaved the ribs were not much better . As for the salad I could have stayed home and made one much better . The whole dinner for us all was just bad. Then my husband had to go find our waitress just to get the bill . Maybe they need to care how they treat customers or get some wait staff that knows how to do their job well . All we saw was wait staff walking around but not willing to help . My advice save your money . A drive threw would have been great compared to this place. Will not be going back food and staff suck !!! read more

Breadsticks are to die for. If I could I would just sit there all day and dip the breadsticks in sauce. The Pizza and salad are pretty good.

Probably Howell's finest restaurant always good food and service. Love the breadsticks. A little pricey but worth it especially for special occasions. read more

If you come here you must get the breadsticks. Those delicious garlic breadsticks with a side of cheese are out of this world, and it's worth a trip for those alone. I also had the Stromboli which was pretty average and nothing special. Overall I'd stop by again if I was in the area. read more

The best place in Howell for pizza and salad, the bread sticks and cheese dip should not be skipped. Always have have professional waiters and good service. Be prepared to wait for a table Friday and Saturday Evenings but it worth the wait. read more

great service, awesome food and a nice place to take the kiddos!!! we love to come up there for family get togethers or even a small family dinner. We have yet to have anything that we didn't like on their menu, especially our picky child loves to eat there. Highly reccomend read more

great stop After shopping at outlet mall we came for lunch. Chowder was thick and yummy with large pieces of potatoes. Club sandwich was good for my ten year old. service was top notch. our waitress offered to have my Cesar dressing on the side for better travel of leftovers. beverages were never empty. she was very attentive. Would come again when in town. read more

the breadsticks here are phenomenal - like olive garden's but 10 million times better! i'm not sure how why're made, but it's almost like they're fried and baked at the same time. we were served a huge basket of piping hot breadsticks even though we were a party of 2, which was awesome because most places will give a smaller basket to smaller parties so we usually end up having to keep asking for more - but not here! i don't even know how to begin to describe the breadsticks..they were covered in a generous amount of garlic butter, dusted with salt, and so warm and soft - absolutely delectable!! the breadsticks were list as ~$5 on the menu but i believe if you order an entree they come free. my friend and i both got the alfredo and it tasted really good and came with a generous serving of parmesan cheese on top. it also had mushrooms which i didn't like but you can always ask them to hold the mushrooms. all in all, the breadsticks alone filled me up, and even though the pasta was great, next time i'm coming just for the breadsticks. also will mention service was really good - extremely fast and efficient at taking our orders and bringing out our food. read more

Went to dinner on my husbands 60th birthday. Dinner and service both amazing. We have been going to Tomato Bros for years and have never been disappointed. Great restaurant! read more

Breadsticks are the best. Ribs, pasta and salad were pretty good. Appetizer was just so so. Great service!

Portions are indeed large. Bread was awesome. My chicken piccata was excellent. My wife enjoyed her Stromboli very much. My daughter had a seafood dish that was also very good. Overall the experience exceeded my expectations. read more

One of the best restaurants in the Howell/Brighton area. The staff is amazingly friendly and the food is better than almost anything else I've ever had. read more

Best Stromboli I have EVER had! They have really great pizza, breadsticks and pasta also! But I can't help but have the Stromboli everytime! It is sort of like a pizza pocket, but wayyyyy better. The breading is sooo good, soft, and perfectly cooked. And you have your choice of "toppings" to go inside with the delicious mozzarella cheese that is perfectly melted. And the best part is the pizza marinara dipping sauce, best pizza sauce I have ever tasted. The service was also top notch, very sweet and attentive. And the restaurant itself is classy and fun. Great place for kids. read more

My husband and I happened went to shop at Outlet mall, when his friend suggested him to check out Tomato Brother restaurant, so we did. The host , was very nice, lead us to dining area. The bread stick was good, warm and we were hungry ( so it makes a big difference ). The food, appears good, - Chop steak was tasty so mashed potato,- Chicken was moist and well done but flat, no taste. Vegetable appears very good wish cook it longer, so easy to chew it. The server was OK, what can we expect, everybody is different, and personality is always different one from the others. We can not say / complaint much because they are people who bring our food from kitchen to the table. In general it is OK, they serves generous portion of foods. read more

My daughter-in-law and I wanted to do a special "girls night out"- and this restaurant was her suggestion. From the glass of wine, the calamari appitizer, to our main courses,--and of course our server-Penny- everything was wonderful! I was so impressed, I wrote about it in my travel blog! http://theflightnun.blogspot.com read more

Breadsticks are great with their Greek salad, ask for ranch dressing to dip the sticks into! Ribs are OK, soup was good. Sometimes service can suffer when they are slammed. The family that owns this place has a numbered restaurants in the greater area. read more

My wife, always enjoy your food after shopping and usually bring me the leftovers which is a treat. She ordered spaghetti with meat sauce and brought me my supper. I was nearly finished and bit into a very hard, seamingly ceramic chip . At first I thought I had chipped a tooth, but do not feel any difference at present, other than a sore jaw. I wonder if it is a piece of chipped serving plate or perhaps bone?? read more
