Our customers service here was top notch. The staff seemed to really enjoy working here and it showed in our service. Our waiters super helpful and gave great recommendations. Great portions sizes that fit the price of menu items. The garlic bread was phenomenal, the lasagna delectable, meatballs were huge and flavorful. Honestly there wasn't a pasta dish we had there that wasn't good and had a pleasantly surprised good clam chowder as well. Overall, a nice family eatery that will fill you up and with such wonderful customer service will have you coming back.

We tried the deep fried brussels sprouts (appetizer) and it was excellent! Chicken cordon bleu was great (huge portion). The fajita steak sandwich was great, but I think it would be better if the steak was run through a slicer, so it would be easier to bite through. Service was very fast and waitress was super friendly.

Well...The way I see it, with a name like Dancing Tomato Caffé it's not only going to be good, but a town favorite as well. And, I hate to say it, but I was wrong, it wasn't good... It was Spectacular! The food was Amazingly Delicious! The service was exceptional at every point of our visit. So, if you're looking for a place to call ..home away from home, and have a home cooked meal like your at Grandma's house on Thanksgiving, with a menu so vast that everyone will be pleased, then you've found it.

Nice atmosphere and attentive staff. Portions are substantial so either come hungry or be prepared to take to go boxes with you when you leave.

Tried their classic Pasta Ka-Boom — it delivered as expected. Service was decent. For fun, I had ChatGPT turn my photo of the dish into an Edward Hopper-style painting, which made the experience even more memorable.

Visited March 21st..see receipt. Drove into Yuba City from Grass Valley today...missed breakfast by 5 minutes! I am glad we stopped here! There is so many options..daily specials..dinner specials..senior menu..happy hour specials. It's large inside and also has a separate bar area. Full bar. I had the cod and fries and my friend had the hamburger and clam chowder. The cod was crunchy and the seasoned fries were nicely seasoned and crunchy as well. The burger was a basic burger with no frills . Alittle dry but still good. Clam chowder was chunky and really good. They also have specialty coffee drinks and I had a cappuccino to go. I also ordered the cheesecake to go. We were both happy with the food and service. Although very busy they were adequately staffed and Sarah our server was great and polite! It is nicely decorated with booth seating in some spots. It has a colorful vibe to it! Next time I am in the area I am going to get one of their breakfast specials ( good until 11am). If you download the app you get 10 bucks off for signing up ( I didn't do that). Good for groups as well! Thumbs up!
