Stopped in for lunch after reading a recommendation on the Great Lakes Navy FB page. Was so delighted by the service,... atmosphere, and most of all the food!!! I had the roasted vegetable salad with tuna- very tasty with a balsamic vinaigrettedressing. My daughter had a 1/2 pollo merinato and antipasto salad. She said it was really good! Husband had turkey sandwich andhe said it was very good. We had espresso and cookies for desert which were pretty good! Very nice meal. Will be visiting again! Read more

Great food. Like out of this world food. Nice menu. We usually split an order get cups of soup so there is room for the... cannoli... Be sure not to miss it. On the downside the tables are smaller than cozy and the background noise stops anyconversation or lingering over coffee and dessert Read more

I love Tina?s so much that I?m willing to drive over an hour to have their food. I live in the city and always made the drive... when I crave for the chicken salad sandwich. Tina is very friendly and welcoming as well. Her staff are really great and Ialways leave her restaurant with a full and happy tummy. Highly recommend Tina?s if you haven?t been. Read more

Located at the center of this strip mall is some absolutely quality food and what looks to be a great lunch spot. All tables... seem to be tablecloths under plastic and normally seat 4. The food was fair priced for what we received in flavor and quantityand so what more could you ask for but for a Drive-thru. This place was incredibly quick to whip up our food even though wehadn't called ahead and every single table was full besides the front table where I waited and could look at the triangularshape of the interior and the personal items that adorned the walls and shelves around me. The lady who rung me up was verypolite as was the lady who brought me my to-go bag. Onto the food! Wow, this is not the bread that you normally get with anItalian Beef (Panino Di Manzo in this case). The bread chosen is incredibly soft and airy, yet it really has the structure tohold together when soaked by juice which is included in a cup with a few stray pieces of beef for enjoying after the sandwich.This bread tastes amazing when soaked in juice and honestly has become my favorite part of the sandwich sometimes on par withthe beef itself. The beef is exceedingly good but not the best I've had. However, there is a lot of it and for $10.95 I'm soglad it does cause it makes it quite a large sandwich once it adds the red peppers, onion, and cheese to the mix! These weresome of the most flavorful red peppers that I've had from a place where I could get my order to-go! The parmesan chips wereessentially kettle chips with parmesan sprinkled on them... and thats all they need to do to make a great side for asandwich. Overall: 9/10 Read more

I definitely can say that Tina's is an authentic Italian restaurant/cafe. It reminded me of my grandmother cooking for all the... men that my grandfather would have at the house. Sausage, meatballs, mustacholi, lasagna, neck bones, sauteed peppers, mushroomsand onions, gagoots, well you get the point. My wife's caprese salad, my side salad, the bread and Olive oil, my sausage andmeatballs with peppers, the minestrone soup, it was all good! All delicious. Read more

Stopped here today while visiting, and I have to say the food was AMAZING! I got the sausage & meatball platter w/penne pasta,... and the bolugnese sauce was on point. Very delicious food, and Tina & the ladies working there are all very nice & pleasant. Great atmosphere as well! I highly recommend Tina's if you love traditional Italian food, and are in the area. You won't bedisappointed. Read more

Amazing! Just discovered this place yesterday. Back today. Rivals any Italian eatery. Amazing sandwiches, salads, pastas,... meatballs, Italian sausages, baked goods. The focaccia is light and bursting with flavor. The Italian cookies fly off the shelf. We still have so many menu items we can?t wait to try. We just bought a large focaccia and 2.5 lbs of cookies for Easter. Staff is lovely! Friendly, fast and efficient. Read more
