The Como is like going back in time. Stirs up good memories when going out to dinner was more than just eating. It's an experience.

Tripe had to many tomatoes in sauce and side of rigatoni was over cooked I'm sure it was cooked before and reheated. Also bug in bottom of beer glass and waitress said must have been thirsty too. 12 people for birthday dinner they said there meal was good only because I was paying.

The best Sportsman's Dinner complete with venison, spirit and friends is right here!

Not a bad experience, but not great either. We came because or a restaurant.com voucher but the food didn't feel like it was worth the full prices. With the discount, it was worth it. The calamari appetizer was dry and tasteless. The spaghetti and meatball dish only comes with ONE small meatball! You have to order more separately at an extra cost! That is not okay.. The lobster tails were ok but tasted like they were frozen and defrosted in a microwave. The steak was a good portion but overcooked due to the fact that it was not fresh beef. The vegetable and baked potato sides were good. We were served by Dale and she did a good job, she accommodated us well and we had a nice experience because of that. She bumped my rating up to 3 stars instead of 2. Thank you for a good experience.

The Como is a classic Italian American restaurant with family style servings and attentive service. Go hungry as the plates are large!
Linda Mercurio
Horrible slop Thanksgiving menu. Waited forever for a salad, bread before dinner. Small portions for exaggerated price. What a dump
Pete Carmina
For was great but the service was so so. I had gnocchi that was very good, my son ordered ravioli and my wife ordered a tour of Italy. Appetizer was calamari that was some of the best is every had! All the food was great but our server left drinks empty and Tom forever to get to go boxes. Place want that buys either. If I could just rate the service is rate it a 2!
Chelsea Fanning
A great place for Italian cuisine. The service is always nice and the food is always delicious.
Claudia Rochon
Got the dinner from the deli. The chicken was sort of slimy and the gnocchi tasted like they were sitting for a long time. A disappointing meal all around.
Martin Biedermann
The service was great and the drinks OK. The food needs updating.
Kathe Militello
I enjoyed our lunch except the person who ordered the eggplant. It was bitter and rubbery. The bread was outstanding. The service was So So. Don't order the eggplant. Don't make the server mad. She has worked there a long time.

Fine dining with great service and friendly staff, wonderful menu, overall and fantastic experience, this restaurant is one place you should visit if you come to Niagara Falls.
Thomas Cofield
Went there with the wife during a visit to Niagara Falls based upon the glowing recommendation of a friend that grew up in the area. My expectations were far exceeded by the fare. We went into the Deli and found the staff to be friendly and very helpful. My wife (a Sicilian) stated that the sauce was pretty good. My wife never approves of any sauce other than her own families recipe. When asked if there were any Italian cookies we were delighted to find out that they were just coming out and we bought two dozen to take home, along with cannoli of course. In an age of fake, corporate Italian restaurants the Como is one of those places that bring real Italian food to the everyone, and at a much more reasonable price.

We were there today, (11/2019) it was not the best experience. There was a little confusion about how many were in the party, but more showed up than anticipated. This was a large group, for sure. You would think most places would have been happy to see a large group of paying customers. These ladies acted like we were an inconvenience. Two of the three were quite rude. They could have been way more organized to start with... (Pitchers of pop/water, carafes of coffee/tea) I asked for a pop early on, it was brought to the table after many of us had already eaten. On the plus side, the food was good, portion sizes are REALLY small, but prices reflect that. Additionally, for the amount of orders that were places all at once, the food came out pretty quickly. All in all, had the waitresses been a little nicer, I could accept some of the other flaws. There's just no excuse for being rude. Thank people for their patience, smile and just do your thing, people will understand.

Totally awesome food and excellent service
Bill Bos
Went for lunch with 7 others and everybody said food was really good. They even had a gluten free rice pasta which I had.
David Whitcroft
Have enjoyed this spot in the past and today it was the best ever. The veal cat was unbelievable the sides and soup best ever the cook knows their stuff.

The deli is great for take out. They even have curbside service! They have great food and fast friendly service. I love the chicken parm!
Troy Callahan
This place has great food and the people who work here are awesome! A MUST eat!
Dominic Neumann
The best restaurant in Niagara Falls. Get the chicken parmigiana. It'll be the best you've had.
Scott Flowers
The place was pretty good, but not amazing as we were led to believe by locals. Staff was friendly, but they were admittedly understaffed on a Monday night. Calimari was excellent, but Ribeye was terrible. They boast a bakery and butcher onsite, but the bread was average at best and the steak was poor. I don't believe I will go back next time I'm in town.
Jeffrey Thorpe
It was nice, quiet and thefood was good. The price,16.95 was very affordable for a 3 course meal.
Susan Martin
Love their house made Italian dressing. A little on the expensive side. Nice atmosphere.
Mary Johnson
Wonderfully quaint restaurant with top notch food and impeccable service. Friendly host and reasonably priced. Large portions. We visit here every time we come to Niagara Falls New York
Rick Morelli
Very good Itallian food at reasonable prices. The kids (18 and 15) both got the Taste of Italy platter, they liked the chicken oarm and gnocchi but did not like the cheese ravioli and lasagna as much. I ordered the tripe,which was delicious, and a side of linguini with red clam sauce that was very good. My wife had the NY steak and lobster tails, the steak was excellent but the lobster was over cooked. Our desserts were all very good. We tried the cannoli, spumoni ice cream and the bow tie pastry. The was friendly and very quick. Overall it was a very good meal
JIM Mancuso
Quantity over quality. Good for some. Pricing excellent.
Casey Walker
Cool establishment!! Service was good and food too. Been open since 1927!!! Very upper class looking with good prices. Would definitely eat there again.
Ano nymous
Was expecting much better considering the previous reviews. Bread was salty, overly soft, and cold. The salad was just drowned in dressing and had lettuce that looked like it was going bad. The ravioli was tasteless and like frozen food. At least the server was very friendly despite being the only one working the whole dining room.
John Forgione
Classic Italian food as well as a classic Niagara Falls restaurant.
Vert
Decent but over priced
Andre Martin

Steve K
Huge portions of REAL from-scratch actual FOOD. I believe this is the only real restaurant still around. Amazing.
kathys
Fantastic deli and a restaurant that's been there for many year. 1/2 price hot italian meal's after 6 pm... take out!
Mike Hawkins
Consistently delicious food, a homey atmosphere, and friendly staff who always make us feel genuinely welcome. They have the best chicken parm that I've ever had at a restaurant. My wife and I love coming here!
Alex Crinzi
Niagara Falls traditional Italian. Good food
Denise Brown
Absolutely Phenomenal!!! The service, the atmosphere and my God the food was Outstanding!!!! I love this place and on my next visit to the area, this is definitely a must.
Katie Danieu-Schiess
Good basic Italian food. Lasagna soup had outstanding flavor but when it was served it was not hot (temperature wise) which was disappointing. Pizza bread is absolutely delish. I ordered the eggplant parm and did not enjoy it. Portion was very large but the eggplant was cut thick and was mushy. I guess I prefer it to be cut thinner and sautéed with garlic. Now I know! If you like thick eggplant you may love this. It just wasn't for me.
Sara Rosado
Went for lunch here with my son today and got a horrible experience unfortunately. He had a steak sub which was tough and hard to even bite through. I ordered ravioli and meatballs… Which was served it right in front of you so thinking it would be delicious, got that. It was lukewarm at best, including the meatballs. Ravioli was very doughy With ricotta filling that had next to no flavor was very chewy and it seemed like it had been out for hours and we were there at around 12:30 PM. Was really hoping to write a good review but this was just a letdown after a 30 minute drive just to get there.
Jonathon Cassatt
Classic Italian fare, at a reasonable price for take out at the deli.
Kathryn McCloskey
Absolutely loved this place! I'm from Pennsylvania and was visiting New York and the service was amazing with such great people working there!!
Scott Weitz
Great place for a large family get together, banquet staff was nice and always around
Dave P
I've been going to The Como Restaurant for 50 years and never been disappointed. When in the mood for a great Italian specialty, this is the place to go!
Mark Uhmann
Sorry don't like to leave negative reviews. But this was a place recommended by someone saying it was top notch. My meal of strip steak and lobster could not be filled, had to have scallops as substitute. Strip was fine but scallop fried from a bag not fresh. The veal pizziola was dry and over cook.Meat balls that came with spaghetti were cold. Plus ran out of the choice of beer before we got started. Not going there again. Sorry
Kita Bug
Great food but the waitress with a blonde ponytail, prolly 50 or so was rude. Loud talking me and the other customers. Just rude. Good food tho. 5 stars if waitress was kind.
