The room was perfect and spacious, the food was wonderful, and the service was outstanding. Charlie and the gentlemen who took care of us were patient, kind, and attentive. They gave us the time and space to enjoy each other's company in a relaxed setting, which meant so much to our family. Everyone was impressed, and I'm truly grateful for all the care they put into making the day special. I highly recommend Roma Restaurant. I'll absolutely be recommending it to everyone I know, and I'm sure our guests will be doing the same.

They started us out with large bowls of salad and bread, both which were very good. Then for appetizers we had antipasti, eggplant Parmesan, and calamari. All of the appetizers were so delicious! We all agreed it was the best calamari we have ever had! For entrees, we had the chicken parm, veal, and salmon. Everyone really enjoyed those dishes as well! For dessert, they gave us an Italian ice cream, that was so yummy! Our whole group couldn't stop talking about how delicious all of the food was! We would highly recommend Roma to anyone in the area!

This place has been on my radar for a few years but I never had a reason to go. I recently decided…read moreto come here for a wedding anniversary dinner and was blown away by the service and the food quality. Started off with oysters, wine and fresh bread. I could tell that the butter was house made and asked for extra because it was that good. Had the beef duo as the main course. I found it to be satisfying and also much better value than the steak frites. All of the items I received were very detail oriented and as well as fresh. We were seated on one side on the restaurant that I believe was blocked off for more special occasions. The other side of the restaurant seemed to have tables placed more closely to one another. Our server consistently checked on us throughout the night to make sure we were okay. Overall I was very satisfied with the service that I received here as well as with the food.

First of all, the space is interesting and expansive. It's almost like they have multiple themes in…read morethe restaurant. I love how we were greeted with energy and they were truly happy to see us. This walk to our upstairs table was like getting a tour. We requested a table that would allow us to have easy conversation with our friends who were joining. And it was a great table, looking down on the main dining room. The only real dig I had was the lack of lighting upstairs. I literally could not see the beauty of my dishes because it was too dark. There was a flickering light above us which was taped over, but I do think they need to reconsider whether it's bigger candles, or even some type of table lighting. Wines by the glass, would have hoped for a bigger selection. The white cranberry cosmo was terrific. Great menu! French traditional favorites coupled with a creative collection of Spanish and Italian dishes as well. Chicken, beef, and super great choices of fish. I honestly didn't spend time looking at appetizers as I went right to the salads and entrees. And yes, interesting creative selection of salads. I had a beet and hummus salad. My wife had a kale and grapefruit salad and there were others to choose from, with the exception of no Caesar nor plain house for the boring pallet. I had scallops and pistachios and it was very good. There was branzino and also a beef duo of flank steak and oxtail ordered. All the dishes were really well prepared, seasoned and beautifully presented. Again, I would have enjoyed seeing what was on my fork for each bite. Dessert menu was okay. I thought a bit overpriced and just not overly appealing. Too many caramel offerings, and not enough diversity. We did offer their version of a chocolate lava cake but it was like a tapas portion of dessert. It was good, but 3 bites worth, hardly shareable. It would be unfair not to mention the great service. Our waiter was chill, let us chat away for over 3 hours. Never felt rushed and all his helpers knew exactly who was getting what. Well done .... I'd go back in a heartbeat.

This was truly a surprise. While visiting the American Dream mall for my son's birthday arcade pit…read morestop, my daughter and I were waiting on the side while the row of wines caught my attention. We walked over and were delighted to see the enomatic wine dispensers, with lots of wine in them. We started doing our own little wine tasting and started to like the wines we were tasting. Given that this was my son's 21st birthday and now legal to drink, I called him up and told him to finish his arcade experience. Since he doesn't really like drinking (I've tried to educate him at home at times) the tasting would be a good entry into wine. We had him drink a sweet moscato which we all liked. This is now his favorite wine . Not bad for a first timer. Elvis, I think he was the owner, heard our celebration and offered a bottle of Prosecco for the group. We all enjoyed a good toast and continued to go down the rows of wines. I love tasting flights of food and drinks so this place really was heaven to me. If you're thinking of hanging out and not sure of what wine to drink, definitely check out this place. You won't be disappointed.

At Vinoteca, you get a card to tap for unlimited wine to try. A bit on the pricier side especially if you're doing the smaller tastings. If you know what you like, would recommend getting full glasses - more value for your money. The service was great. One of the rosé wines were warm and they swapped it out for a colder one right away. They mentioned they are revamping the place with different wines and pairing menus. Looking forward to coming back.

The food here is pretty solid. There's a little something for everyone to have like a little snack…read morewith your wine. The wine selection is top notch. Always very interesting and cool wines on the list! The staff? Probably the friendliest people you ever did meet. If you end up there even twice in the same month, they'll likely recognise you and give you a hearty, friendly hello. I've come here multiple times, and generally tend to buy at least one bottle. I've especially loved coming when there's folks who are willing to foot the bill for the night out, so that I can enjoy the really good stuff they have on offer. In those cases, we order multiple bottles, and keep the cocktails coming. They automatically add 20% gratuity to your bill, so there's no chance you're going to fumble the tip at the end of the night. Assume that any price on the menu is 30% higher, on account of sales tax being over 6%, and automatic gratuity being 20% added to your bill. Early on when this place opened, the vibe was chill, and you could bring people and have a conversation and a really nice time tasting the various wines on offer. Lovely. Get a cocktail, and the bartenders will take care of it, and make it perfectly. So why the 1 star? As time went on, they decided to hire a DJ to come in and spin music. Cool no worries. Then the DJs decided it's REALLY IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO HEAR THE MUSIC YOU GUYS. SO LET'S BLAST IT AT EAR BLEEDING LEVELS. AND NO, THE STAFF WILL NOT REQUEST TO TURN IT DOWN. NOPE. WE GOTTA BLAST IT LIKE WE'RE IN A NIGHT CLUB. I thought maybe I had an off night, and it was one dude who had an agenda, so I went back a couple more times. Everything is gucci until the DJ shows up. Then all of a sudden you're all "WOW THE NOTES OF PLUM AND MINERALITY IN THIS WINE IS DELIGHTFUL!" "WHAT?" "I SAID THE NOTES OF PLUM AND MINERALITY IS DELIGHTFUL." "WHAT?" "WHAT?" If you're going to charge me in the neighbourhood of like $18 for a glass of wine or a cocktail, don't blast music like it's a freaking strip club and drown out any ability to have a conversation with the people I brought here thinking it's going to be a classy experience. If I wanted to go some place to shake my backside and dance to loud obnoxious music, I'd go to the other million and a half annoying loud places that exist already. Why they had to take such a delightful space, which had such a calm and peaceful vibe, and turn it into a trashy night club is beyond me, but I have zero desire to ever set foot in here again. The vibe sucks, and I'm not willing to spend that kind of money to be unable to hear the people I came with. I don't care about the DJ's agenda. The music should be a nice backdrop to the space, so that it enhances the mood, not stomps all over it like a herd of spooked cattle.

Followed that up with their crisp house focaccia with herb butter and the olive mix - both also discounted on happy hour. The server was absolutely wonderful and helped me choose a lovely wine to follow. She made my cocktail with care. The record selection was eclectic (Jamiroquai was in rotation) and a live DJ was just starting a groove as I had to leave. I would have loved to spend more time there.

The food was absolutely amazing really flavorful and well done. Just be a little prepared that most dishes come in smaller portions. But the quality definitely makes up for it. I ordered the paella, and it's easily enough for two or even three people and it was well worth it. Really delicious. The drinks were also definitely worth trying while you're there. The only thing I wasn't big on was the desserts they didn't quite live up to the rest of the meal. But overall, great atmosphere, excellent food, and a fun experience. I'd definitely come back.
