    Food being made
    Justin H.

    I've never had Afghan food and am always interested in trying new ethnic foods if I get a chance. So, when I heard about Rom's House opening up in Marble City market, I was eager to try it out. The main entrees are a bowl that consists of meat & rice/veggies topped by a baked bread layer. It comes with a salad and drink. The meat was perfectly seasoned and tender. Really, it's a huge meal for the money and extremely delicious. It's comparable to Middle Eastern or Mediterranean food. But, slightly different in presentation and seasoning. Aside from the main entree, we also tried the fries. My son thought they were delicious and said it was his favorite version of fries. Service was reasonably quick and staff members were friendly. I saw lots of people here trying it out and everyone seemed to really be enjoying the food. Overall: This is a great new addition to the Knoxville restaurant scene. If you like trying different styles of food or enjoy Middle Eastern food, you need to try ROM's House. It's super delicious. Highly recommended.

    This was my first time having Afghan food and it blew me away! The chicken was super tender and the bread they use to cover the bowl is a nice mix of soft and crispy. This place is a gem inside of Marble City Market!

    Delicious beyond what I had thought it would be. I have never had Afghan food before, though I have had a lot of other Indian cuisines. This elevated different flavors than the rest, and was soul warmingly delicious. Can't wait to bring my friends back. Also the bowl is enough for two for sure! Very generous with portions. If you are expecting American potato fries, you'll be surprised to find delightful yummy deep fried pieces of squash. Incredible. Get the fries!

    Afghan pizza

    Excellent food. We ordered Rom's bowl with chicken and beef and Afghan pizza. All three dishes had flavor and were authentic. Highly recommend this place to anyone who has not tried Afghan dishes. Street parking available in plenty.

    Rom's Bowl w/ Chicken

    A hidden jewel in Knoxville. Amazing, delicious bread, delicious chicken and rice. Perfect spot to hit too if you have a sensitive stomach - it's not spicy - but you can add hot sauce which comes on the side already.

    Great food. Nice owner. Hopefully this place is able to make enough money to afford marble city hall.
