Lombardi's Italian Restaurant was one of the best dining experiences we had in Ocean City! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and family-oriented. The beautiful photos throughout the restaurant added so much character and made the space feel inviting. We enjoyed the lasagna, pizza, wine, and handcrafted mixed drinks, and every bite was absolutely delicious. One of my favorite touches was watching the fresh cheese being hand-grated right at our table--it made the meal feel extra special and authentic. The owner personally took the time to walk us around, share recommendations, and make us feel right at home. That level of hospitality really stood out. The staff was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable, and the restaurant was spotless, including the bathrooms. Everything, from the food to the service and even the packaging for our leftovers, reflected attention to detail and pride in the customer experience. If you're looking for authentic Italian food, exceptional hospitality, and a cozy atmosphere in Ocean City, Lombardi's is a must-visit. It's the kind of place that turns a meal into a memorable experience, and I can't wait to return! read more

It was a great service experience from start to finish ! Awesome stuff, welcoming host, very detailed and helpful people. Great owner very welcoming and hospitality friendly, compare to "ANTi6@st", but I am glad that he referred us to that place ! Food was real Italian experience. All payment forms accepted. read more

I wanted to really like my food because I really liked the whole atmosphere of Lombardi's but the most I can give it is 3 stars and only because my wife loved her fettuccine ala vodka and because our waitress Tamara was so nice. However, my ceaser salad was just ok.... Nothing special and the pizza was just a blah. We are staying at the Ashore Hotel up the street and Richard the maintenance guy loves the pizza so I was excited to order it. Big let down. However, if we are ever back Ocean City in the future I would give it another try but order a dinner instead. read more

Last day at the beach, so decided on some pizza and went with Lombardi's. This place is packed out! Got ours to go, and had stacks of pizzas to pick up! The pizza was very good, crust not too thick and very generous on the toppings. Next year when we come, we'll definitely be ordering again! read more

Visit in ocean city MD , stopped by this place for some Italian food. Got the chicken parm with angel hair pasta. Portions were small , one chicken cutlet and pasta no salad came with your meal but the chicken was tender and the pasta was good with the sauce. Pizza wasn't bad but you can't compare New York Pizza to any other place. Place was packed but we sat pretty quick. Had sweet tea with free refills and the service was fast food was hot and the staff was very friendly and polite. read more

Heard about this place from a friend who visited. Fist day we got pizza, w/M and O, Very good pie, thinner crust, but flavors are there. Next day we all got pasta, Outstanding, sauce was flavorful, cant say a bad thing about the food. When you see a restaurant that people are circling around the lot looking for a place to park-Has to be good, Got takeout the first time for pizza, about 6:00, it was a madhouse. Next day we opted for an earlier dinner, 4:00, seated quickly, definitely a place to return to. If planning on visiting, I'd suggest street parking -on Biscayne. The lot can be a nightmare. read more

Trattoria Lombardi's - Angel Hair Bolognese baked w/cheese, w/ side of saus - Pizza Near Me - Ocean City, Maryland

Lombardis was a mixed experience. The pizza was incredible and the mozzarella sticks were some of the best ever. The pasta was definitely homemade and was delicious. We were able to get a table right away and were excited, because right when you walked in, the restaurant smelled like an authentic, amazing Italian restaurant. Unfortunately, our pizza came out about 20 minutes before the rest of the entrees. Additionally, the waitress said she did not have time to bring us bread and that it would come with the pastas. When we asked for no onions on the salad, we were told it was premade. And most disappointingly, the chicken we got as a side was not cooked. The waitress did not charge us for it but her attitude was very rude. I would definitely go back for pizza and would maybe consider carryout. Having a waitress or waiter that is hospitable and welcoming really can add to or ruin an experience. I'm confident that my experience is not typical because of how busy the restaurant was and always is. read more

Definitely a mixed experience during my visit here. Stopped by on a Sunday and even though the place was packed, we were able to get seated right away. Was able to place our order pretty quickly, but the rest of the experience was a bit off. We did get our salads and mozzarella sticks pretty quickly, but our pizza arrived at least 20 minutes before the rest of our entrees. Whats strange is the other entrees were just pasta, so you would think that would have came out first. We had to keep asking our server where the rest of the food was and she was a bit rude. I do understand the restaurant was busy and the food coming out isn't her fault, but there's definitely better ways to go about it. She seemed overwhelmed and when I went to ask for a refill of my tea, she ended up bringing me water instead. When the pastas did arrive, our one pasta dish was just sauce lumped on top, not even mixed together. The other pasta came with sauce on the side (which is how we asked for it) but then a piece of chicken that was basically rubber. The pizza was great and I'd probably get it again, but I'd skip the rest. read more

Listen. This joint is making delicious pizza. While it has thicker crust than most, it's not Detroit style or deep dish- but the flavors and "ambience" transported me back to the little Italian joints in Chicago suburbs- the small mom and pop shops I grew up on. Thick cheese flavored by all the greats - not just the mozzarella - stands up to their crust- so everything is perfectly balanced. I loved the old school stained glass light fixtures and dark wood booths - just like the old days. Don't change a thing! read more

My favorite pizza in the world. It's greasy, can tend to be undercooked. It will be ready within 5 minutes, don't wait longer than half the time they tell you. They make these pizzas quickly and with love. It's a nice place to eat in, the owner is very jovial, you could sit in the restaurant if you order pasta. But in my opinion, get a large pizza (pepperoni is best) for carryout, go pick it up straight away, and then walk across the street plus a block to the beach. Eat your pizza while you watch the sunset over the ocean. Bring napkins and beers. Perfect night. read more

Food was good. Food came out of the kitchen a little slow. Portion sizes were decent, but the chicken parmigiana was a bit skimpy on the chicken. The ambiance is a little weird. The bar is right there in the restaurant area, and people at the bar get a little loud. Oddly, the basket of bread coming with the meal instead of before the meal is a thing here. It was that way nine months ago, as well. Waitress was attentive, and the owner/manager stopped by to see how things were going. We'll go back. read more

This must be a "hot spot" in this part of the Coastal Highway, based on some of the Yelp reviews and given our hotel (Princess Royale) also recommending it for Italian. We walked across the street around 5:30pm. We initially requested a table, but then we saw 3 chairs available at the bar. We decided to do that instead and I'm very happy we did because we had the most amazing and fun server, June. (I hope that is how you spell it; he said it's just like the month.) We order a bottle of BTL Pinot Noir ($30) and Mozzarella Sticks ($11) to start. The Pinot was nice, and the mozzarella sticks and dipping sauce were definite winners. My friends order the Chicken Parmigiana ($21) and loved it. I ordered the Bolognese ($21) and added the baked cheese ($2) on top. I selected Angel Hair for my pasta. It was delicious! The food arrived quickly, and the portions are large. (Sorry, we were having such a good time with June, I forgot to take pictures.) The prices are very reasonable here given the size of the portions. The three of us could not finish our meals and took to-go boxes with us for a nice snack the next day. As other Yelpers have noted, this place gets packed after 6pm (even on a Thursday when we were there). Although we were having a good time and thought of purchasing another bottle of wine, we saw the line was out the door as well as people waiting inside. We decided to leave our bar seats and let other people have an enjoyable experience here, too. Definitely recommend if you are in this area of the Coastal Highway in Ocean City. read more

Great OC restaurant. We enjoyed two meals in a week. Mushroom pasta and tortellini were amazing. Great experience. read more

Our family absolutely loves this place. Favorite items have to be the pizza and cheesesteaks. More importantly they are so kid friendly in terms of catering to and dealing with our 18 month old. She had so much fun while we were here no doubt due to all the friendly attention she got. We always get seated quickly and food comes quickly as well. read more

We stayed across the street from this restaurant and walked over in our first night after our 4.5+ hour drive to OC. We all liked it so much that when the place we planed on going to later in the week was closed after the boardwalk, we came back here. We had a wait which was expected but our table was ready and service was fast. We asked for bread and it was freshly sliced and warm and delicious. Our daughters ordered chicken parm and like that they were able to pick their pasta. They both said the chicken was good and had leftover pasta and ordered it again the 2nd time we went. I ordered the shrimp scampi with spaghetti which was a bit overcooked for me but still good. The next time I too ordered the chicken parm and it was very good, with vodka sauce and penne. The vodka sauce was excellent. My husband had the bolognese and loved it. Ordered it the 2nd time and wanted to stop in our way home for a 3rd portion or to order the sauce!! lol. The pizza was very good too. We had it both times and brought the leftovers back to the hotel and it was good even cold. Service was quick and efficient. Place is like stepping into grandmas house. We will definitely be back next time we're in OC MD. read more

Been almost ten years since my last review, time for an update! We dine here every time we visit Ocean City. It's an old school Italian restaurant. The service is fast so don't be discouraged about the long wait times. It is a bit of a wait if you have a larger party than 4 though. Can't go wrong with any of their pizzas and pasta. My wife says this place has the best clams in linguine with white sauce. I've had their lasagna and other pasta dishes, and it tasted great. I believe their pastas are homemade. The owner is great and so nice. read more

The food sucked. I don't know why there are reviews of having good food. My boyfriend got the pesto and I got the vodka pasta and honestly Olive Garden is better. Very bland, obvious the pasta was sitting a while and then the sauce was just thrown on. Files everywhere! Service was good, but with the quality of food I will not be returning. read more

I'm back again at this delicious pizza spot in OC! We arrived around 7PM and the wait was only 10 minutes long, the staff were kind and welcoming to attending to our order. This time, I got the Summer Special pizza and sigh, it was DELICIOUS and refreshing. The flavors were robust! This is a great place to gather with family and friends, just to make some delicious memories :) read more

Ordered for pick up and it was on time, 15 mins. The flavor was of average pizza, nothing to rave about. The crust was so chewy and tough my jaws hurt after eating it! Not crispy and def didnt pass the flop test! Light on the sauce and cheese too. I was excited to try it after seeing some of the positive reviews- maybe they just a bad day, but we won't be going back. read more

The food is impeccable. The building and design is old school. We ordered the large supreme and it was heaven sent. The sauce, as always was spot on. Noy salty, over done ....just a slice of this side of heaven. The servers are as always impeccable. Never overspocken or overbearing. I could see these angels at the pearly gatets.f Nothing here is overbearing or overdone. Goldilocks said this place and food is JUST RIGHT......AND I AGREE. read more

If you're driving through OCMD or beachin' it - stop by TL for the best pizza in town!!!! It's been around for more than 35 years, when you walk in it takes you back in time. The pizza is absolutely delicious and you MUST have the homemade sauce to dip it in. That sauce...is liquid gold! I love the fact that one of owners walks around talking to customers and making sure things are up to par. Staff is also friendly :-) read more

Inside Lombardis has the best vibes and solid Italian cuisine . We come here every year

A small Italian homestyle restaurant across from our hotel while on holiday. Place seems to only be open for dinner and quite popular. The interior is old school with stained glass lamp shades (all different and none matching), and the wooden booths are small and tight. A lot of tables available though. Our server did not seem to be very familiar with the menu. Could not describe items for order. The food came in an odd order. Side of bread came last. Some reviews mention garlic bread but this was just regular bread with a side of butter. Kids meals seemed hearty. Tenders were tasty. Burger bun wasn't great. Chicken parm was yummy. Hawaiian pizza was alright. The sauce is too salty. The crust too hard/crispy. The cheese had burned onto the pizza and the pineapples were not sweet enough to overcome the saltiness of the sauce and Virginia ham. Overall we liked it for the "nostalgic Italian American home cooking." Someone who appeared to be the owner came by to check on us. That was nice of him. read more

Tagged along for dinner with my friend's family on a Sunday evening. Parking was a breeze as they have a big lot right outside. Despite the pretty sizable crowd waiting out front our party of 5 only waited about five minutes and we were promptly seated in a booth in the back. It's a little tight inside, weaving around the tables and bar area proved a bit difficult especially since it was so busy. The restaurant is dimly lit with traditional Italian decor on the walls. Our server was quick and offered good recommendations. I ordered the chicken fettuccini and despite the photo it actually tasted quite good. You need to mix the sauce in yourself as they clearly have the noodles separate from the sauces in the kitchen. The Alfredo sauce was delicious, they said all sauces are hand made. The shrimp with vodka sauce was also great. Our meals also came with a bread and butter basket. I was impressed by how fast our meals came out. Overall I'd recommend Lombardi's, I'd like to come back and try their pizza. I'd eat their pasta again for sure! The only issue we had was the huge table of children that were sat next to us which is not the restaurants fault. The dining room inside was quite loud and unfortunately we had to scream over the table to be heard during the entire meal. read more

This place is a classic and staple of OC-- they've been around forever and it's for a reason. Everything here is so fresh-- pizza toppings, sauces, sandwiches, you name it. Every time I'm here, the service is fast but the quality is never compromised. Be aware that if you choose to go on a weekend in peak season, there will likely be a wait but everything moves very fast. Highly recommend if you're looking for a good Italian spot! read more

Trattoria Lombardi's has always been a must-stop for us every time we vacation in Ocean City. The pizza is always fantastic, the garlic knots are next level, and the mozzarella sticks are just plain amazing. It's been around a long time, and you can feel it -- the place has that classic old-school Italian ambiance that makes the whole experience even better. It wouldn't be a proper Ocean City trip without a stop here. read more

All dishes were overcooked beyond recognition. The pasta scampi was watery and had no flavor. Service was very uncoordinated.

Food not worth the price! My manicotti was grainy and my mothers eggplant parmasian tasted only of frying oil. Very dissappointed for $22 meals. And no parm on top :( Also the weird idealistic paintings of American presidents playing poker are off putting in an Italian restaurant. read more

Ordered carry out since we were staying across the street, plus with the completely packed parking lot, couldn't have made a drive over even if we wanted to. Employee didn't have the greatest of attitudes over the phone while taking order, put our order in under a completely different name (even though we clearly stated and spelled the name out over the phone, twice). Nevertheless, got a White Pie and an order of Lasagna. Lasagna had plenty of cheese and sauce, not bad quality at all, would definitely order again. The White Pie certainly over performed, wasn't expecting much based off presentation, however the flavor certainly delivered. Great Cheese, Crust, and the onions added a nice flavor as well. Will definitely try Lombardi's again in the future! read more

Super busy weekend but a review on take out pizza. The dough is unique. But not in a good way. Super dense and undercooked. The underside was as white as a paper plate, but not soggy. Just a super dense flavorless dough. Have a full glass of water with each slice otherwise you won't be able to get it down. The cheese is SUPER greasy. Even a white pizza had the cardboard soaked before we got it home. Wish it soaked into the crust... People were nice. 3 stars is very generous but the place looks cool. read more

Pretty good food!! We ordered one Chicken Parmigiana and one Chicken Parmigiana with Vodka sauce instead of the classic sauce. I definitely liked the one with Vodka sauce better but both were good! The chicken was cooked well but too salty (and I appreciate a good salting). It came with a few pieces of bread with butter that was okay. I would definitely return for their pasta sauces. read more

This is our absolute favorite restaurant to visit when coming to Ocean City! We've been coming for 5 years and have never had a bad meal.

AMAZING!!!!!! Staying right across the street from Lombardi's and saw the good reviews. Wife and I were looking for a change. What a good choice. Showed up around 7pm on a Wednesday and it was about 3/4 full. Little loud but still could have a normal conversation. Service was super quick fast. Like damn fast. After our orders were taken, it took about 10 minutes for our food to arrive if that much. It flew out of the kitchen. Wife got the shrimp scampi with angel hair pasta and said it was delicious. I got the veal parm entree and it was probably the best I've ever had. Everything tasted so fresh. Our wonderful server kept bringing refills on my soda before my cup was half empty. I do go through soda pretty quick at meals. Got a cannoli to go and it looks so yummy. Didn't get to try their pizza but a table close to us did and it looked delicious. Will have to try it next time as I saw a lot of reviews saying it was the best in OCMD. If it's anything like our meals today, I can't wait to try it. Excellent service, excellent portions, can't wait to go back. read more

The food was horrible! I ordered the sausage sub. The sausage was either cooked and used over and over again, or was "beyond" meat. It was not real sausage!It was like MUSH! Absolutely disgusting. The rest of my family had chicken parmigiana with pasta. One very small piece of rubber chicken, and the sauce was not authentic. I also ordered a tossed salad, the lettuce had a lot of water in it, as it were frozen before serving. No way I will ever go back!! Waste of money! read more

YESSSSSS! If you love pizza then you will love Lombardi's! I had heard a lot about this place and they did not disappoint! The ambience is a little dated, but works for the type of restaurant it is. It was clean and comfortable. We ordered a large half Cheese and half Meat Lover's as well as a large Lombardi's Famous Summer Pizza. They were all very tasty. The crust had such a great flavor, which just complimented the pizza even more. I will say the Meat Lover's is very stacked with...meat! For the type of crust, it doesn't hold very well and you may need to eat it with a fork. The Famous Summer Pizza was so fresh and delicious and buttery. Such a great balance of ingredients/topping and SO good! The hostess and server were all friendly. It was decent service and they checked on us throughout our dining. 10 out of 10 recommend! read more
