Stopped here for a meal on our way home. The food and service was both great! Stacey, our server, was friendly and attentive to our needs. The only bad aspect of this restaurant is how much food there is😊. This is why giving 5 stars is more than reasonable.

Great service easy in and out parking lot. Spinach Artichoke dip was fantastic. Kids pizza was good. Fettuccine Alfredo with chicken and broccoli wasn't bad. Chicken parmesan with noodles was way to sweet. The bread was awesome. Kids meals come with drink and ice cream for dessert.

Called in for a pick up order where Jordan (who answered the call) was very pushy and rushed me off the phone. Once I had arrived it did not seem to be as busy in the establishment as I was anticipating from the initial rudeness of placing my order. The order was not all there (mind you it was only 3 entrees). I left without the 3rd entree due to not wanting to wait additional time to keep from the remaining food that we did get from getting cold. The fries were cold and stale, the chicken strips were mushy due to all the oil. This is our 3rd incident with Cimino's. I decided to call to inform them of the lack of food quality where the manager did handle things in a professional manor, but would only allow us a credit to return. I declined. I might have lost out on $30, but we will not be dining here again.

Have visited Cimino's before for Italian food and enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Nice large restaurant with a nice separate lounge and dining areas. Sunday brunch is above average and fairly priced. Service above average- a daughter of the owner was our server and very friendly. Alcohol prices reasonable- a 16oz. Blue Moon draft came in at $4.50...

This was our 3rd time having an issue. Pizza had been under cooked. Manager told us he would Remake the pizza clearly by the pictures you can tell that didn't happen. Cheese and pepperoni were underneath the pizza stuck to the crust. I'm done with this place. Quality has continued to decline over the past several years.

Our first night in our new home. My husband and I decided on pizza and wings. Unfortunately, we waited too long before deciding on what we were going to get nonetheless this place was still open so we put in our order only to get there to discover that it was burned at the bottom. Fortunately, the manager gave us a discounted price and offered a discount on our next order. Honestly, I’m not sure if I want to order from here again because the taste of the chicken was bland and the pizza was just ok. My husband believe it was possibly because it was close to closing time for them and it was rushed.. maybe we’ll give it another shot.

Just completed most of the Jane Addams bike trail and decided to go to Ciminos for a late lunch/early dinner. They had outside seating that was very comfortable. Laura, our waitress, was excellent. We ordered three appetizers, sausage and peppers, asiago cheese strips, breaded mushrooms, caprese salad, and stromboli. Generous portions and very delicious! Highly recommend!

The service was terrible. 2 tables full in our group. 2 waitresses. 1 table got their salads then they got their food. The 2nd table didnt even have their salads or appetizers when the 1st table was finished. We had reservations. They served the small 2 and 3 people tables before our second table. Poor management. The young man said he was going to adjust our bill for the long wait but there was no adjustment on the bill. When we bring in 20-25 guests we might think about (not) coming again

Place is very nice. Waiter took our order and was friendly to talk to. We sat at a high table and thought they were alittle to small for too people. The music they had going was good but too loud. Felt like I had to talk louder to my friend. Food took longer then expected. But when food did arrive it was definitely worth the wait.

Their Buffet is pretty good but could be better Labels for what's in each pan on buffet would be great. Just a suggestion. They need sanitation for the whole place. Weekly/Monthly scheduled cleanings. This is just what I can see. I would like to see there kitchen and do a review on it also!🤔

Had a family gathering at Cimino's for their Monday night buffet. It was very disappointing. They only brought out two fresh pizzas the whole time we were there. The other pizzas that were at the buffet when we got there were cold, and they were still sitting out when we left. We had four children under the age of five and they were charged regular buffet price. That seems ridiculous when a one and a half year old is getting charged to eat. She didn't even eat a whole piece of pizza. The four children put together didn't eat what an adult ate at the buffet. Needless to say we will not be returning to this restaurant again.

My baked cod was warm, if that. It obviously sat somewhere for a while. Service was okay. $4 virgin mary/$3.50 bottled beer. Why would a drink without alcohol cost more than the beer? No veggies in the juice. That might of helped somewhat.

I ordered the Taco Salad without the shell (low carb). Paid $11.00 for it. DON'T DO IT! I literally got a cup of lettuce a 1/4 cup of meat and maybe a 1/4 cup cheese. So little amount for such a large amount of money. When I called the manager said its portioned for the shell and they have NEVER had it ordered that way. So my lesson was...You are buying the shell not the salad at Ciminos. Go to the Big Apple ... huge salad for $8.69.

1/2020 - If you haven't tried their Sunday Brunch Buffet, you are missing out. It has a large variety. Avg Price.Fresh Omelet Station, Pizza, Fried Chicken, Eggs, Salad Bar, Bacon, Sausage, Mac N Cheese, Fresh Fruit, Muffins, Desserts, and more. Sooo much to choose from. And all of it tastes really good!‐---------------------------------------------------Good specials throughout the week. Seem to offer a discounted menu item or a buffet. We especially like that their dinner special is available before the usual 5pm dinnertime. We go to bed early due to our jobs and prefer to already be eating at 5pm, if not done already. So thank you for that!Service is always friendly and attentive.

We used to LOVE this place. Idk if they got a new cook or just stopped caring but I ordered a BLT with fries and a side salad. I asked that my bacon be crispy, it is COMPLETELY RAW and repulsive. The fries are like someone poured water on them, not one of the 4 of us in my home could eat a whole fry without spitting it out. I also asked that no peppers be added to my salad, as I am allergic, however here 3 of them sit leaking their juice all over my salad. The pizza we got the other night, all the cheese and toppings were stuck to lid of the pizza box as if someone dropped it and just said oh well. I also repeatedly asked for separate totals but the young man who took that order couldn't get that right. We spend a ton of money here. Their solution? Come back and we will make you a new sandwich. So more time and gas for me and also not a family dinner when one of us has to watch the others eat while waiting on replacement food. We will NOT be back. Utterly disgusted.

My family and I decided to have two pizza. I had BBQ chicken pizza. It is the best one I ever had. I love by how the cheese melt and pull it apart. The taco pizza was okay, could have order a little large than 10 inch because of so many toppings on it. But the result of everything is so good. The waitress is nice too. This place is highly recommend.

Absolutely delicious pizza at reasonable prices and they offer slot machines.that are a lot of fun to play. I win a few and I lose a few. Usually break even or may come out a few bucks ahead. Keep hoping to hit it big. Try the Philly Cheesesteak pizza. The best ever. Friendly staff and very nice atmosphere.
