Tommy's Not Here

My favorite in Sudbury

Excellent food and service but get ready to pay a lot for it. Everything is great on menu and great wine pairings. You need reservations most times.

I had a great time at this restaurant, you get what you pay for and more. The atmosphere was cozy but yes, very dim. It was also sooo loud but lively. The service was good, our waiter seemed very friendly. And the food, I honestly still think about the meal I had there and my mouth water's. I ordered the portabello mushroom and goat cheese brushetta with balsamic reduction drizzled over. I'm salivating just typing that. Hand's down one of the best things I ever ate. Please try this!!

Room for Improvement

The food and atmosphere were good. The waiter was pretentious and made the evening a poor dining experience. His grandeur attitude made my guests feel uncomfortable and unwelcome. The food was quite good but I feel it important that the watier not make you feel as though you are putting them out by simply being present.

Appetizers to die for but main courses lacking

We were warned before we went about the dark, basement atmosphere but were charmed by the cozy, speakeasy vibe. My husband could not find an entree that was interesting enough to order so he decided to order several appetizers. I chose the steak because I also could not find anything else. Way too many pasta dishes, especially with a cream based sauce. My husband made the better choice! His appetizers were all amazing! I, on the other hand, did not even get the steak that I ordered. I ordered striploin and got filet. They offered to take it back and cook what I ordered but I didn't want to wait another half hour so I took the filet. The steak was very tender and good, but not what I ordered and there was no compensation for this. We would go back if the main courses were as creative as the appetizers.

Good food

It was a nice meal with better than average service. I would consider to return - the only down side to our meal was the non-alcholic drinks where a not up to snuff. On the non-meal side the furniture was well worn and the atmosphere was a bit dated in a sort of cozy way.

Very cute place!

I was not that impressed when I first arrived because of the huge sign that reads "Motel" haning above. I thought that looked gross. But once inside I was happy. It was really nice. The lighting was a little too dim for my taste though. I like to actually see what I'm eating, but I guess its good for romance and intimacy. The waitress was awesome. She was very professional! Over all I loved the experience.

One of the best dining experiences I have had in a long time. The food was to die for. My boyfriend and I spent nearly 4 hours there, arrived without a reservation and was accommodated quickly. Our server, younger man, longer brown hair, was phenominal. He described the featured items slowly and in such detail that my tastebuds watered. There are a wide selection of appetizers, salads, entrees and pastas to chose from, as well as a detailed wine list. I ordered the Orange Roughy feature, whereas my boyfriend had a Duck bowtie pasta. Both were impeccable. The arrival of the appetizers were timed perfectly, allowing us to enjoy everything without feeling rushed or getting too full. Our server recommended an excellent half bottle of red and white for dinner. While enjoying all of this led to an above average bill price, it was worth every penny. We will definitely return, as there are a number of other items on the menu I am looking forward to trying. Great fine dining experience, but would not recommend to a family will young kids.

I had no idea that sudbury offers a dining experience quite like this. The atmosphere is great (located in a basement, but with beautiful decor). The service was equall to the food (amazing). The whole staff was very attentive and friendly. The wine list is untouched, offering wines unable to purchase at the LCBO. I trusted my server to choose a bottle off this list, and it was matched perfectly! The food was unbelievably delicious. My server informed me that each dish is cooked from scatch, I can't eat food prepared any other way since! Thanks for getting me hooked!

This restaurant is a hidden gem - our favourite place to eat, in this city. The food is superb - the staff is friendly. A great spot for a leisurely meal with friends and family. Always a winner for us.

Service and food were excellent. We're on vacation in Sudbury and chose this restaurant based on the reviews here (and the fact it was within walking distance to our hotel) and were not disappointed. The only thing that we ordered that didn't live up our expectations was the bruchetta. There was nothing wrong with it; it just wasn't great. The guys both had beef and were very pleased with their dinners. Both women had the pasta and there was lots of seafood; neither finished the pasta. We'd didn't make it to dessert.
