We went for an Anniversary dinner. Very small and crowded facilities. We had a nice time, but the service felt rushed, the food was average and the atmosphere noisy and crowded (not lively, tables to close and stuffy). We had even made reservations two weeks in advance, but felt we were stuffed off in a corner. I would return to try it again, but this time was a disappointing experience.. read more

We thought the food was good. Service was decent. Only 3 stars because it took an hour for our food to arrive after placing our order. Also, be aware that there is a 3% service charge automatically added to your bill without asking if we are paying with cash or credit card. Moving forward my recommendations would be to be clear before presenting the bill regarding the 3%. Also regarding the food, toast the bread that is served with your meal, and the risotto needed more depth of flavor- it tasted like cheese and rice- needs something more read more

Torme - Old Fashioned + Bruschetta - Italian Near Me - Prescott, Arizona

Surprisingly, Prescott has quite a few really good Italian restaurants. Rosa's, Limoncello, Papas - all of which I should review, and all would be four stars. Torme however is the only five star Italian food in town. From the same people who brought us El Gato Azul so it's no surprise that, like El Gato Azul the main dining area is Al Fresco. The food is superb, ambiance fun, and service was excellent. If you weren't looking for it you'd miss it, on the corner of a residential street, and when they're busy you may have to park in the grocery lot across the street. An excellent addition to the growing restaurant scene here in Prescott read more

Great outside dining restaurant with friendly staff and yummy food. The mushroom risotto was fantastic and the appetizers were all amazing. The Cesar salad had way too much dressing on it and would have been so much better if it was not swimming in dressing. Overall really liked this place. read more

Service and food were excellent, with a menu that would make a foodie very happy. Plus they serve large portions. The owner has been in the restaurant business for years, and he knows what he is doing. Highly recommended. read more

This is a relatively new restaurant and Italian in Prescott. I heard through the Yelpvine that it was pretty good. So had to give it a try though we have very high standards since we make from scratch our own pasta and sauces. They are only open Monday to Friday leaving the weekends off and according to our server it's because the owner also has another local place that serves Spain is Tapas. I have to say I've had a bad experience there on account that they don't know what chorizo from Spain is and they tried to tell me that some boneless beef short ribs were slightly w cooked for hours when the inside was grey tough chewy meat! Ok nuff about da past. The place is simple design and open airy which is great and a big area of outdoor seating. We chose to sit outside though it was still warm at 5:00pm. We were not in the sun and the seating eg tables were great. Loved the atmosphere. Our waitress Zoey was so positive about the menu and place she has work for the owner at his other place was totally sold. Which to me says a lot. I love employee positivity and commitment to their jobs. They serve a terrific focaccia. Made from scratch. Actually everything is made from scratch which is 5/5. They had a small carrot salad of honey a touch of tarragon a bit of mustard which was very good. As well as goat cheese mixed with herbs and spices really delicious. A Boursin. Ok it's Italian with a French flare. I like that personally since I'm more than half French. Service a 5/5 We ordered the the sage brown scallops on risotto. The scallops were perfectly seared and the perfect texture. Ok I like mine more raw because I like most all seafood raw. Yes I know I'm part shark. The risotto was perfect very creamy in texture and the brown butter was d flavor was decadent. A definite 5/5 We also ordered the linguini funghi which uses their made from scratch wheat noodles and an assortment of mushrooms and flavors delicately sautéed into a great pasta dish. Must be a mushroom lover. 5/5 We also ordered the sherries mushroom ravioli. They are handmade, like everything else from scratch. The sauce is a ver light cream sauce. Which is a more traditional real Italian dish. Another 5/5. Ok I could downgrade slightly because the ravioli pasta was slightly, very slightly undercooked. But i look for perfection and this place is striving for it. Atmosphere, service, food, and wine were all 5/5. About the wine there menu is simple and great. You can purchase a single glass at the same price as the bottle so that my fellow goodies is great! Ok why four stars vs five. We sat outside initially because it was a nice evening and very airy and inside was a bit stuffy with little air flow but nice decor. Well they are located next to the fair grounds where the longest running rodeo happens every independent day weekend. The animals horse cattle and crazy cowboys. Oh I was raised on a ranch. Attract every fly around. Well the rodeo is over and the flies have found a nearby home. The evening manager Zack was more than polite and courteous he moved us indoors because the flies were overwhelming us and trying to eat our scallops!!!! Not good we moved inside and it was better but steamy in temperature. Hey folks we live in Hawaii and never had it this bad!! Well they are working the issue. Eg get better ac inside and better zappers outside. This is the only issues. That will either be fixed or fail the place. I'm confident they'll resolve the issue until then bring your fly swatters. read more

I was visiting Prescott and was recommended this place. This was October of 23. I am coming back to Prescott and I had to look this place up so i would remember to come back. Food and service were fantastic. Good enough for me to leave a review a year after i actually went. Thank you Torme, see you again soon. read more

Superb food and service. Excellent halibut. Their central location is very convenient. read more

Food was delicious, service was prompt and friendly, ambiance was nice. We will definitely return!

Very Disappointed with Our Meals!! My husband, two friends and I went to Torme for dinner last night. The service was excellent, the venue is pleasant and the food was extremely average. It was so disappointing as we had really been looking forward to coming here. I ordered Linguini Al Funghi, which was described as "Wheat Linguini, Walnut Pesto, Exotic Mushrooms Asparagus and Kale with a Lemon Gremolata". It was heavy and bland. There were two tiny 1/8" slices of asparagus; a few mushrooms and no pesto was to be tasted. I was anticipating pasta with pesto and no cream sauce and what I got was a heavy dish with no pesto and swimming in a cream sauce. My husband had Fettuccine Spinach with Salmon. He described it as "just average". Both of us had at least half our dinner left and neither of us took home our leftovers. Many of the dishes are laden with cream, cheese or both and are heavy. Needless to say, we won't return. read more

Amazing food, staff and quiet atmosphere. I would recommend to anyone. Quaint building and location

We've been to Torme 3-4 times, heard inconsistent reviews, and actually satisfaction in our dinner group was mixed. Tuesday, 5/20 we go out to dinner with friends. I'm GF & DF. Waitress was good, I don't blame her (for the most part). Salad came with cheese on top, like all the salads. she should have caught that. I ordered lambchops, she talked to the chef and mine would be made with a GF/DF raspberry gastric (think it was a berry jelly out of a jar). Everyone's dinner arrived, she went back to get mine and apparently another server took my GF lamb chops. So I waited, and waited....She offered me another glass of wine, I said "yes, on the house", she agreed. Waited..... Finally my dinner comes out, other 3 at table were trying to eat slow, but were at least 1/2 done with their meals. I try 'sawing' into it with the large serrated meat knife, but it was not easy. my husband said 'I don't think that's cooked enough', he felt it with his finger and it was cold. So we tell the waitress, disgusted she apologizes & takes it back. After about 5 minutes, as everyone else is eating, I went to find her again to ask if I could at least have the rice and vegetables that were on the side so I could eat while the rest of my table ate. 5 min's later she comes with my hole plate. Seemed cooked and hot, it was good but, too late. Waitress apologized and said they would do a dessert on the house, I said I expected everything to be comped! And so it was. read more

The food was very authentic 5 stars, pricing was a little high. Ambiance outdoors is very nice. Very small indoors. Service for the style of restaurant could use a level up. Maybe more polished approach to the menu and delivery. read more

We wanted a nice place to go to for our anniversary while in Prescott, and we are so glad that we found Torme. We were very impressed and we will be back!! It was the PERFECT date night & special occasion place. The ambiance was wonderful. We sat on the patio/garden area and enjoyed the dim lit area and the sound of cicadas while we ate our dinner. We ordered the bruschetta appetizer and it was very well presented -- it also tasted delicious. For our entree we had the Fettucine with Smoked Salmon, and it has to be one of the BEST pasta dishes I've ever tasted. The service was also wonderful. Our waitress (I cannot remember her name) was very attentive and made sure that we had all we needed. She gave great recommendations and informed us about menu selections & the nights specials - prior to us making a choice. She was also a wonderful photographer for us and helped us capture memories to remember our first wedding anniversary. We will be back! I'd give 10 stars!!!! read more

We made a reservation a week in advance and were seated next to the pickup bar. The food was average. Our service was average. Wine list was very high priced and no options for lower priced wines. Lots of other places to go in Prescott with better food and service, including their other restaurant, El Gato Azul. What a letdown! read more

This was such a sweet little unassuming spot. We almost didn't go because we were there for an early dinner and it didn't look like much from the outside. BUT on the inside, it was a darling little upscale bistro vibe. Very appropriate for a nice date. We went with our 15 yr old daughter. We had three entrees plus dessert. The mushroom pasta was one of the best meals of my life. We highly recommend! read more

What a hidden gem! Great options for indoor and outdoor seating. We sat outside and it was quiet and pleasant, surrounded by plants. They make all their pastas and sauces at the location. I had the Pasta Rustica, with a rosemary cream sauce, pancetta and goat cheese. Phenomenal. My friend had the scallops and risotto. Lemon tart for dessert. Our server Bri was one of the best - so sweet and was helpful in choosing our entrees. We are SO impressed and definitely will be back! read more

Always a great experience, food and service is excellent. Can't wait for warmer weather so we can eat outside

First time ever and the waitress was pleasant. Very helpful with the menu and help me figure out what to order since I don't eat very much. She was very helpful. It's a very simple little cutesy place. read more

Absolutely delicious! The pasta was homemade and you could feel the love/attention to detail in every bite. The ambiance was comforting and very relaxing. Easy to have a conversation and did not feel overcrowded/tables on top of each other. I'm not much of a pasta lover, but that meal definitely changed my mind. :) read more

Torme - Italian Near Me - Prescott, Arizona

We went on New Year's Eve and had reservations for 7:30. The food was amazing but we were seated outside in the tent with the heater. The problem was the cold came in very strong even with the heater. My husband and I were very cold the whole meal even though there was a heater. I would have given a 5 if not for this issue. We will come again but will specifically ask to be seated inside. read more

if it is a desire of great food you are after, then I believe this is among the finest dining experiences in Prescott. The service is always friendly and enjoyable. We were there for their dinner menu, but can't wait to return for a great lunch . read more

Meat quality was lacking, they screwed up my first meal and then the second meal they replaced it with was even worse, spoiled salmon, yuck . The waitress tried to soften the situation by making really weird comments and she kept touching me and I told her to stop touching me. Super unprofessional. And the manager came out and said that she needed an explanation or she wasn't gonna take the item off the menu. I told her she better take it off the menu or I'll walk out and pay absolutely nothing. I told her it wasn't my responsibility to tell her to do her job. I think some better training could solve some of these issues. read more

The food is exceptional, it's a small but very nice indoor restaurant but on a nice day or evening has great outdoor dining. The food, oh the food, was very much enjoyed and the service was amazing. We will return. read more

I love it here. The quality of the food is excellent and very tasty. I've never had a bad meal. The service is great and everyone is very friendly. I highly recommend you try Torme. read more

Awesome food love it would recommend I had the oysters and octopus and buffalo ravioli their moctails are so good!!!!

Came to leave a review but decided to check some others first. Seems to be a common thread with this restaurant. Went here for birthday dinner. Ambience is nice, mood lighting. This used to be a coffee shop before and I had been there before. Anyway, getting back to the story. We are seated in not very comfy chairs and table is too small. We are used to it so we deal with it. Our waitress is friendly and positive to interact with. We order the fig and arugula bruschetta for appetizers. One bite and it overwhelms with this syrupy sweet sauce that I imagine is fig preserve. The underlying toast, prosciutto, or cheese is nowhere to be found on the palate. Just a relentless sweet sticky continuum. Our waitress comes by and asks how we're finding it, and we politely inform her of the sweetness. She apologizes for it. Next up, entrees. Our waitress suggested the mushroom pastas and scallop/seafood entrees. But being my wife's birthday we went with her preferences and got a red sauce pasta with ground beef and fennel - standard tomato sauce pasta offering. We also ordered a spinach fettuccine with chicken. A server brings two piping hot bowls our way and sets them down. I notice there is a lack of aroma emanating from the food. We each take first bites. As I chew, I wait. My jaw is working but no flavor is coming. I look at my wife and she looks like she can't taste anything either. A thought crossed my mind that I may have COVID, as this food cannot be this bland. More bites do nothing to change the situation, and I ponder asking for olive oil and cheese. We exchange plates, and my wife's meal, though marginally more aromatic, notably misses any trace of fennel even though it claims to include Italian sausage. We agree it is a huge underwhelm. I try dousing my dish with salt and pepper - and unsurprisingly, taste only salt and pepper. Our waitress once again comes by and asks how we're doing. Once again, politely, I inform her that it's somewhat disappointing. She immediately offers to take it off our check. I tell her that's not necessary, and I'm simply concerned that it's so bland. She insists on taking it off the check, and after a couple rounds of back and forth, I let her have it. Now at this point clearly my opinion has been bought, so I can't say anything more than I was disappointed with the dessert as well (which was our host's recommendation) and all in all it was a negative, unsuccessful meal. We applaud the team's forthcoming nature and their commitment to making it right for the customer, but no front staff can correct the issues coming from their kitchen. We wish Torme all the best but in the foreseeable future, we will not be coming back. Olive Garden tastes better than this! read more

The food and service were top notch. We were only in town for a few days and we dined there twice.

I was up in Prescott for a business trip when I decided to make a stop at this quaint and lovely little Italian eatery, all of the employees were very kind and courteous, especially the host Hannah who saw it as her duty to provide me and all of the other customers with the finest of dining experiences, the dish I had known as the Basil Tortellini was amazing and I recommend anyone who maybe passing they're way through Prescott to give this place a go Paul Fowler read more

Delicious meal wonderful service... great ambience! As usual Barry scores big with his restaurant expertise!

Quality, service, atmosphere consistent. Food choices are incredibly gourmet. DELISH! Go now. You will not be disappointed

I had the lunch serving of Shells Fumo Con Gombero, which is egg pasta shells in a creamy smoked Gouda sauce with sautéed shrimp and broccoli. Although it was a significant portion of pasta, the dish was notably underwhelming in flavor. The "smokiness" of the smoked Gouda was absent, as well as the presence of broccoli. Perhaps more broccoli could be stuck in one's teeth than was involved in this dish. I realize inflation is abundant for everyone, but perhaps it's time to remove broccoli as an ingredient if it's just an impersonation of such. However, the three shrimp were of ample size, taste, and garnishment. Unfortunately, I can't recommend this dish because it doesn't measure up to Barry's typical quality. The restaurant is set in a small, older house, complete with outdoor seating as well, while the decor and atmosphere is cozy, warm and inviting with soft jazz music elevating class appeal. I will return to sample different dishes because of Barry's quality reputation as exampled by his El Gato Azul restaurant, and hopefully, I'll be able to strike a higher note with Torme. read more

We went to Torme Friday night and I had some excellent cippiono, my wife had a spinach pasta with salmon which she really enjoyed. Deserts were crème brûlée and a chocolate ganash, the manager suggested combining the two in a bite ... excellent suggestion. Certainly worth an other visit! read more

Torme - cippiono - Italian Near Me - Prescott, Arizona

Had a wonderful experience at Torme! The food, the atmosphere and the service were all top notch. Our server Morgan was especially wonderful! First off the complimentary bread (with a goat cheese spread and a carrot something) was amazing. We had the oversized ravioli with brown butter sauce (we almost had to lick the plate..). Our entrees were really good, minus one. The pasta wasn't quite cooked enough. Then a special dessert they had made that night. A semifreddo(?) It was gelato with pistachios and other deliciousness. We will be back!! read more

We were searching for great food our first night in Prescott & we found Torme. This place is a gem !! The steak tartare platter was fantastic. The bread is wonderful & made in house. The entrees are all great. My husband had the sausage & pepper dish, I had the Fumo with Shrimp. My MIL had the Pesto Tortellini. Our friend had the Scallops & risotto. We were all impressed so we will be back!!! read more

Good food, same menu for lunch and dinner. Good preparations, very fun location and ambiance. In good weather the patio is a favorite! Interior cute, small so everything is close but comfortable. Service great! read more

Place was packed but got lucky with two at the bar which backed to kitchen very nicely. Hana served us well and based on the quick read knew we wanted the Ode to Primo to start and it was fantastic. Hana poured me a terrific old fashioned and the night went swimmingly! Shared the Lobster noodles with house salad and couldn't have been happier...even had some to take home. Nice job chefs! read more
