Lombardi's Italian Restaurant

Over priced blah food.Used to love coming here.Can't believe prices in comparison to product

OVER RATEDwife and I were expecting greatness. NOPE better at home. Hate places too lazy to remove tails from the shrimpI don't want to sperate my food I want to eat it. And pasta was tough under cooked. Lasagna was pasta a cheese no sign of meat small hint of sauce. These place was worse the olive garden.

Ambiance is beautiful, greeted warmly and seated immediately. Bread was served quickly with roasted garlic in oil and was delicious. Waitress was exceptional. Hubby had seafood pasta special and he stated was delicious. I had special pot roast panini. We also had pear salad... very good. Entrees served were a bit unappealing, but hubby stated seafood pasta was very good. My panini was a bit skimpy but had good flavor. Grand 75 drink was very tasty. Seated at the window overlooking the harbor is serene and peaceful. Yes we will look forward to a return visit soon

Absolutely LOVE Lombardi's for authentic Italian. They have a great menu, and everything I've chosen is always the best version I've ever had of the dish! Great spot on the Everett waterfront.

Tonight I took my husband to Lombardi's for his birthday dinner. We do go out occasionally, but I wanted to mix it up a bit. We normally end up at a place in Mukilteo. Tonight, however, I wanted to try a place we haven't been to for a while. The last time we went to Lombardi's was during the pandemic. We had ordered groceries. When we did that, I knew at some point we would go back after the pandemic was over and tonight was the night! I reserved a table for us, for 6:30 pm on a Sunday night. I'm so very glad that I did that. I don't think we would've gotten seated had I not made a reservation. W e arrived at 6:20 PM. The waiting area was fairly full and as I looked out towards the restaurant, there did not look to be one open table. I noticed a few people come in and at that point the weight was approximately 20 to 25 minutes. My take away to that is if you plan to go to Lombardi's s on a Sunday evening, make sure you have reservations or you're going to wait for a bit. I would say Lombardi's is doing something right if most of their tables are full on a Sunday evening.We ordered appetizers and entrées along with two ice teas. The appetizers we ordered were the bruschetta with chive goat cheese, and angelica della morte. Unfortunately I did not get pictures of this. I will say though the crostini bread was slathered in butter and toasted perfectly. It was presented on a rectangle plate with I believe around eight pieces of crostini bread slices, a scoop of goat cheese, a scoop of angelica della morte, and tomatoes. For those of you who do not know what angelica della morte is, it is a soft cheese with garlic and pepper. Our second appetizer was a variety of brined olives, covered with fennel seeds and other spices. Both appetizers were so tasty I think I might go back just to go through all the appetizers that Lombardi's serves.For dinner, I ordered the chicken parmigiana with roasted brussels sprouts and buttered fettuccine. My husband ordered Sicilian Lamb Meatballs with sauce of caramelized onions, figs, pomegranate. I have to say the chicken parmigiana was amazing and the side vegetable of the roasted brussel sprouts changed my life. I've never liked brussels sprouts. I've tried it many ways, tonight changed how I feel about brussels sprouts. They were amazing. Don't know all the things they did to that vegetable but I would go just to have that, it was that good! The parmesana chicken was a huge serving. In fact, the whole plate was a huge serving. It could've fed two people. My husband said that the meatballs were amazing as well. He never had anything like it and definitely wants to go back to try other things that they have on the menu.For a sit down dinner, we spent $111 for the tip, two appetizers, two drinks and two entrées. Something to be aware of the restaurant does tack on a percentage to pay for medical insurance and other benefits for their employees with our check it worked out to $3, I don't have a problem with paying extra for that but I believe that it would be better served just to add it onto the price of an entrée or an appetizer or whatever it is you're ordering instead of putting that verbiage at the bottom of the menu. Our server was named Aurora. She was very sweet and she did a good job. She was very accommodating as well. I asked for additional sauce to take home so that I could have my leftovers with some fresh sauce, and she included that in my take away items. All in all we had a really enjoyable meal. This is definitely a place where you can have a nice dinner with a small or large group. The atmosphere while active was not too loud. It had a nice ambience. You are right on the water. I would only say as our days get longer and we get to see the evening sunsets it would be a beautiful place to enjoy it! I highly recommend this restaurant.

We love the happy hour and regular dinner menu. The staff is always very helpful and accommodating. Wonderful views of the marina and sunsets. It can get pretty busy so reservations are recommended.

Food Great. Service Great. BS service charge. Just put it in the cost of goods. I would have blinked an eye.

HH reviewIn shortGood prices at HH that let you snack or eat a meal. Spectacular setting. Bar is pretty solid, kitchen has some genuine potential. I doubt I'd pay full price to eat here unless a group chose it and I tagged along. In longThese guys are real pros, with many locations and more than one concept in the group. This location is right on the water with a nice marina view and great sunsets. Huge building with giant dining rooms. Maybe not the biggest restaurant ever, but just the bar is as big as many successful places.Staff are friendly and know what they're doing. We scooted right into the bar, which is where you get the HH menu. There's patio seating off the bar, and the main dining room has huge windows looking at boats and water and pretty things. It was mid-afternoon and kinda slow. There were 3 staff chatting behind the bar during and after making our first round of drinks. Gotta ding them for standing there for several minutes with us 5 feet away watching them...not bring us our drinks. I get it. I've worked f&b in my life. Some shifts are slow. But we can clearly see you delaying our drinks for a while for no real reason. Just keep chatting while you bring them over! We don't care. Anyway, the drinks were alright. Cocktails are the focus of quite a few places along the Everett waterfront now, and these guys are pretty much outgunned. They do have a nice lineup of old favorites and creative twists in the bar menu, along with good wines and beers, but things tended to be a little out of balance in each of the 4 drinks we ended up having. A little sweet, or medicinal, or bitter, or overdone with one of the flavored ingredients (almon liqueur in one pour). Nothing awful, and the prices at HH are good, and the second round showed up fairly quickly, just not quite keeping up with the competition around here. The kitchen is confusing. Some tricky things were done well, and the quality of ingredients is high across the board. But some choices seem off, and execution can be hit or miss. Table breadThey bring out very herbaceous soft airy bread as soon as you sit. You get olive oil with spreadable garlic cloves soaking in it. It's all tasty, but I swear I could feel sticky dough when I pulled out a slice. Like the bread is undercooked. Looked fine, though, and tasted good.Meatballs3 2-oz meatballs for $9. Not a bad price, not quite a HH deal of a price. There's some cheese, some marinara, a few herbs. Kinda under-seasoned for me but a successful dish overall. Ahi carpaccioThe toughest dish to enjoy. Nice addition to the menu, and seemed like really good fish. Overcooked, though, and the capers were tough to get on the fork. Some nice bitter greens and tart onions with it. Garlic breadOrdered before we knew we were getting table bread. Good stuff. Marinara for dipping, nice crunch on the outside and chewy on the inside. Good as a base to make little meatball or tuna pizza-ish bites. CalamariDipping sauce was good. Overcooked squid. It's a steak style, rather than rings and tents, but sliced so thin you almost can't tell. Maybe it's trimmings? I'm usually in the mood for calamari, but the breading was kinda thick on this and overwhelmed the flavor. We were out the door for 4 plates and 4 glasses, with a decent tip, for under $120, which isn't too bad these days. But there's nothing here I'd crave having again. At their full retail prices I'd be somewhat disappointed.

We happened to go when it was really busy, so the wait was a bit frustrating and unexpected on a Monday evening - definitely get a reservation if you are going! But our server Fish was great and the food was amazing!

Absolutely a wonderful place to have dinner. With a beautiful view of the marina. Waitstaff was excellent. Kayla was our waitress she was very friendly and informative she took good care of my wife and I. The food was delicious. The bread was amazing, as my wife stated. We had calamari for an appetizer, which was superb. We had barbecue chicken pizza, which we thoroughly enjoyed. We also ordered the chicken Parmesan dinner, big portions which was excellent and full of flavor. For dessert we shared the Limoncello Tiramisu. Perfect way to end the night out during our vacation.
