Pasta Pomodoro (vintage Way) - Novato

One standout feature of Pomodoro is their shrimp. They are always fresh and perfectly cooked; it seems they've mastered the precise timing for cooking shrimp. I highly recommend trying the daily special; I've ordered it about half the times I've eaten there, and every one has been consistently fantastic. The restaurant boasts an open kitchen, a modern and clean interior with great lighting, a welcoming bar, and excellent service. While I cannot speak for all Pomodoro locations, I have never felt like I was dining in a chain restaurant here. This Pomodoro certainly has its own unique personality, creating an atmosphere where customers feel energized—credit to the current management team. The servers are attentive; I never saw the bottom of my diet Coke, and they always thank us as we leave, even during busy nights. If you're looking for an excellent pasta dish in the Novato area without the hassle and at a reasonable price, Pomodoro is definitely my top recommendation. Overall rating: 3.7 stars.
