Tomato Cafe

So apparently I just realized I've been due for an oil change. I found myself going to 3 different Walmarts each telling me apparently everyone in Albuquerque needs one too since they had crazy wait times. When I heard 2 hrs at the last one I said well that's the best wait time I'm gonna find I guess. Anywho I found myself nostalgic about this place when I first discovered it several years ago. Figured I was in the area so I stopped in to grab some dinner.Boy they did not disappoint. The pizza was nice and fresh. The pasta and the noodles accompanied by the sauce was enough to fill any empty tank. I was running on fumes. I took that first bite and of the pizza and the combination of cheese and the toppings sent my taste buds roaring. I found myself eyeing the meatballs so I grabbed a bowl and grabbed a few. The beef ones are my favorite. Moved on to the broccoli and man was it perfectly steamed. I mixed it with the cheese sauce and I had a nice little treat. My only regret was not trying the Alfredo sauce on the raviolis. It goes without saying this was a delightful meal. I'll definitely be coming back for more. The food was pretty stellar. Totally worth it!

Food wasn't very good. Pizza dried up unless just brought out. Salad bar was subpar. Pasta was nothing exciting.Wish we hadn't gone here.Service was kind

Tomato Café was a staple when my daughters were in single digits. Tonight, I had a chance to enjoy a nice dinner with my youngest and being at Tomato Café brought back a number of great memories. While it is in a new location from those many years ago, the food is still the same and is still very good, fresh, and plentiful.

The food was cold!! Not even WARM. The soup was the only thing that was hot. I didn't have to pay, but i also ate nothing.

The cafe is presenting one of the best menus out of Italua. The Polenta was excellent paired with linguine and one of the zesty sauces offered. The pizzas offered numbered in the dozen, vegetarian optional. The family enjoyed the homemade ravioli. The salad bar was divine. We topped lunch off with complimentary ice cream. Beer & Wine available. Felicimo!

As far as buffets go, this one is a winner! It's all you can eat Italian, and it's worth a try.They open with a small salad bar. Pretty basic, but you can have iceberg or spinach. They have a ranch dressing, but the Greek is really good. You can throw some onions, carrots, and cucumbers on and make a tasty little dish. They also have a tomato basil soup and vegetarian posole, which is actually very good!Next they have a few pizzas to choose from. Cheese, pepperoni, vegetarian, meaty pizza with onions, and a bbq chicken. Thin crust, lots of flavor.They also have two pastas and polenta for a gluten free option. You can choose from a variety of sauces, from marinara to cheese to green chili alfredo (my favorite)! They have two types of meatballs (fantastic) and some steamed broccoli and pan fried green beans. The green beans are smothered in garlic and delicious!You can get a homemade tiramisu or just enjoy some soft-serve ice cream for dessert.Usually friendly service, fair prices. We enjoy coming her for family dinners!

We visited Tomato Cafe today. I was looking for a dupe for Sweet Tomatoes and this restaurant was perfect! The restaurant and buffet was small, but the food was fresh and plentiful! The pizza was delicious, thin and crispy, the salad bar was so fresh!!! Will be returning!

One of my friends couldn't stop telling me about how great the Tomato cafe is so when I got a chance I finally decided to try it out. I walk in and I was greeted by a friendly hostess. My waiter, basically brings drinks, was awesome bringing drinks and napkins and bussing away the plates. The food is nothing fancy but it's hearty and filling. There's a good assortment of pizza. The meatballs are good and there's plenty of sauces to choose from. I didn't like that the salad bar is really basic, not even some bacon bits or croutons or thousand island. There was only ice cream for dessert but there was no peanuts or toppings other than chocolate and caramel sauce. The tickets for 3 of us with 2 sodas was about $51. I don't know if I'd come back because GC has all these and so much more for a little less money. It is definitely worth trying. I have to say if you like alcohol then this place would be a great choice because they have it, I don't drink so it's not a big deal to me. Stop in and try for yourself, it's not great but it's not bad at all...

A big Thank You to Tomato Cafe for hosting our "Friends Celebrating Friends" 2024 Gathering! Great Food! Great Staff! Thank You, Joe & Mitzi Felice

We came in with a rather large group of people, 40 to be exact. We did call ahead and make sure they could handle such a large group. Let me say that the crew that they had working was absolutely amazing! They managed to get us all seated quickly, and the drinks out without a problem. The food... the food was awesome. The selection on pizza, pastas, sauces, salads, and soup was out of this world.We cannot wait to do this all over again. What a fantastic group of employees, and they seemed to love their job. Thank you so much for being attentive and so organized. Very appreciative of your service!
