About this restaurant

  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Good for groups
The name “Colombo” is the Italian form of “Colomba” the latin word for “dove”, which is the “Bird of Peace”. It is in the spirit of peace that friends and family gather to celebrate the every day occurrences that touch our lives. Great food, drink and conversations are the cornerstones for the sharing of these convivial, day-to-day passions at our Italian restaurant.

Colombo’s Cafe & Pastries stands for the beloved concept born in Italy of the “gathering place”… truly a place that “welcomes everyone, every day… at any time” translating as “Benvenuti a tutti” in Italian, whereby the tried and true, centuries-old tradition of “all are welcome” prevails.

    Love Columbos! Food is consistently good and service is great! My favorite is the chicken tascano and the arugula salad with goat cheese, but I’ve never had anything there I didn’t love. They have great pizza too!

    Excellent food and service. Meals were large and great hot bread. No room for dessert but plenty to pick from. Enjoy a cape cod staple.

    The wine was not very consistent. Seems like they changed the cooks or the chef very often.

    Colombo's never disappoints! Excellent service, attentive, but not overbearing. The food was outstanding, as usual. Although they have many tasty starters, soups, and salads (many that we love); we knew if we indulged, we would not have room for dessert. Colombo's has so many wonderful choices! Of course, their bar selections are great, too.

    I had the Asian salmon which was delicious. However, our martinis were extremely expensive not sure why? However everything was very good and we will return. (but not have martinis;)

    Our Server Diana was super nice and a great server. She helped me navigate a good gluten free option and it was great. Also, my martini was perfect. Great experience.

    Overall we had a good time. Unfortunately, our entree came before the appetizers. It was also very bright under the lights and very loud. We were hoping for a little bit of a more romantic experience for Valentine’s Day
