I've been going to Lombardo's since I was young, my parents would always take my brothers and I. The food has always been exceptional, I've never had a dish there that I haven't liked (including black-colored ravioli that I later found out was colored with squid ink, which I highly recommend). Their calamari fritti is exceptional. It's a bit cramped, a bit loud, and manuvering yourself can be difficult because of the lack of space, but once you're seated (I recommend trying to get a booth if possible) it's wonderful. Reservations might as well be required, and don't be in a rush when you get there, as it's usually packed. (With good reason!)
Pros: Food, Ambience, Service
Cons: Noise, Space Constraints
