Familiar, With a Sicilian Twist
Pomelia is our take on a Sicilian restaurant: warm, relaxed and a little unexpected. Our kitchen draws inspiration from Sicily, pairing familiar favorites with bold flavors like pistachio, Calabrian chile, fennel and agrodolce. You'll find imported pasta, pizza, chicken parmigiana and dishes that might surprise you. We believe going out to eat should feel like more than just dinner. The food should be interesting, never intimidating.
The Little Things Matter
We believe some of the best parts of a restaurant experience are the things you might not expect to remember.
The focaccia that arrives at the table. The weight of the flatware. The music in the room. A server who takes the time to explain a dish. Another glass of wine when you're in no hurry to leave.
Those details aren't accidental.
We designed Pomelia to be somewhere special enough for a birthday or date night, but comfortable enough to become your regular Tuesday dinner.
Hospitality That Notices You
For us, hospitality isn't a script. It's paying attention. It's knowing you're headed to the theater, noticing you're celebrating something, making dietary needs feel easy, recognizing a familiar face, or simply knowing when to give a table a little more time. We've spent our careers in restaurants, and one lesson stays with us: people may come through the door because they're hungry, but how they're treated is what can bring them back.
There's Room at the Table
Eating together should be easy.
That's why we've worked hard to make Pomelia a restaurant where people with different dietary needs can still share the same table. Most of our menu can be prepared gluten-free, and you'll find thoughtful vegetarian and vegan choices along with nonalcoholic drinks that aren't treated as an afterthought.
If you're not sure about something, ask us. We'd much rather have a conversation than have anyone feel like they're difficult to accommodate.
Why Sicily?
Sicilian food feels right for the kind of restaurant we wanted Pomelia to be.
It's generous without being fussy. It's influenced by generations of cultures and ingredients. It's full of contrasts: sweet and savory, bright and rich, familiar and surprising.
Most importantly, it's food meant to be shared around a table.
Come for lunch with an old friend. Bring someone you love for dinner. Celebrate a birthday. Stop in before the theater. Bring the family. Order another glass of wine.
