Pomodori Italian Eatery

Where it is
Get directionsPomodori is a small Italian restaurant at 1 New Orleans Road on Hilton Head Island, tucked at the back of a strip of shops so that it faces the parking lot rather than the street. Chef Amanda trained in southern Italy’s Calabria, and the kitchen makes its pasta, sauces and desserts from scratch. It is the original location; a second, counter-service Pomodori Too is in Old Town Bluffton.

Each meal comes with a portion of fresh baguette. Desserts are handmade, and the cannoli get their own mentions. The wine list is long for a room this size.
