This was our first time dining and we would definitely go back. The pasta dishes were delicious-freshly prepared and served piping hot. The salads were also fresh, bright and the dressings were a compliment, not overwhelming the flavors. Service was friendly and attentive. We had a high top in the bar area which was a fun vibe for a Saturday night. Nice dinner, no issues. Give it a try!

Tino's is an unexpected delight tucked into a corner of a little shopping center. There are many gluten free options and the chef was willing to make some of the items not marked GF into a similar option without gluten. I have had the GF ravioli with a cream pesto twice and the only thing I would change is my alternating between salmon and chicken for the protein.
