Definitely one of my favorites. This place is so small, but that's where the charm of this place. This place can only seat about 15 - 18 people. The food is sample of Asia and Italy. What I like about it .. is you can watch the chefs cook your meal in front of you. Very tasty and affordable. I love neighborhood places like this. You can't beat it. Perfect for a first date if you are trying to determine if there should be a second date.

so simple, so good!. I really like this little place. The food has always been very good, and the prices are great for the large portion sizes. Bravo to such a small venue.

Yummy. I like going to Pomelo at least once a week. The staff is always friendly and it's fun to watch the kitchen prepare the plates of food. The food is consistently good particularly the Asian dishes. Fun place to go by yourself and end up chatting with a fellow diner or the chef. I've recommended it to all my friends.

Pomelo? Tasted like Pummice!. We ate here, and will not be coming back. You get what you pay for - cheap, so-so food. The discouraging thing is that we ordered the $13 dollar special: coconut curry, fish, two other seafoods, on 3 cups of plain rice. Four bites in, we agreed that it was bland, overcooked, and could barely taste the coconut curry. I put the uneaten plate of food on the edge of the table, hoping the waiter would see it. He finally did, five or ten minutes later. We said we were not happy with the meal, and he still charged us. My wife and I shared a noodle and chicken meal, our other order, which turned out okay. I'm not hankering for more of the food. Again, for the money ($ 1 bread, $ 8 entrees), it's palatable. We're not going back due to the lack of service and bland flavors.

Quick meal. Good food, fast service, friendly chef (she was friendly and open to chatting about food and restaurants). Had to run through the menu a few times before making a decision, lot's of familiar dishes but with a little of this and a little of that...just enough to make it a bit different. Try it.

Cheap indeed!. I chanced upon this small restaurant by accident. The pomelo on the store front intrigued me and I'm glad it did. The spring rolls are oh-so delicious. The Thai coconut curry is really good. Portions are plentiful for really hungry diners. Space is limited so it's quite intimate and cozy.
