    Ajuillo shrimp, was very tasty though there was s lot of pasta not enough sauce
    Patty M.

    Food was good, drinks were even better will definitely be back for appetizers and drinks

    The Godfather Pizza
    Ben K.

    After seeing all of the amazing reviews for Roma23 and it being nearby I was really excited to finally get to try it. My overall experience was rather underwhelming, I am not sure why, but I had expected a higher scale of experience. The price would suggest this as well. I ordered an espresso martini which was lacking. I could tell it was made with coffee from a pot, not real espresso. I ordered the bruschetta which was my favorite part of the experience, it was good! The tomatoes tasted fresh and crisp, with a good ratio of balsamic drizzle on top. I ordered the Godfather pizza. The meats and flavoring of the crust were very reminiscent of those from a Jacks frozen pizza. The service was good, it wasn't bad. I honestly don't have much to say about it other than that. The menu was very lacking. There were seemingly more drinks than food on the menu.

    Chicken Pesto Pizza
    Rachel K.

    I'm so glad to have a new Italian spot in Tolleson! This place is very cute. Modern rustic feel. I like that the kitchen is partially open so you can watch the pizzas being made. Angela was an amazing server. She was attentive but not hovering. She gave great food suggestions and was very kind. We started with the Mozzarella. It was delicious. I liked that when you cut into the cheese, it mixed in with the sauce. One thing to be aware of is that the sauce has a little heat. So if you are like my mom, maybe order it on the side. I got the Ajillo Shrimp and my sister got the Chicken Pesto Pizza. Both were amazing. The shrimp on my pasta were big and there was a good amount of them. It wasn't heavy or too spicy. I really enjoyed it. My sister loved her pizza and said the dough was some of the best she had. We are excited to come back and try more!

    Caesar Salad
    Ethan R.

    We had a very pleasant experience at Roma 23. The space was well managed, the parking lot was accessible, and the style was very neat. The food was remarkable! We started with a caesar salad, which was made with a spring mix. The dressing was flavorful, and the croutons added that extra bit of crunch that ever caesar needs. For our entrees we ordered the Ajillo shrimp and the Heaven pizza. This Ajillo Shrimp dish was one of the best pasta's I've ever had in my entire life (and I've had a lot of pasta!). The shrimp was cooked and seasoned to perfection, and the pappardelle was done to perfect al dente. We would come back just for that. The Heaven pizza was great too! The arugula was a little much, but the flavor combinations really made it a complete pie. If we were to come back, I'd probably try one of the other pizzas on the menu. Overall, it was quality and timely service. The restaurant itself was a little loud, so be prepared for that, but the taste of the food brought this place to 5-stars alone.

    Ajillo Shrimp

    We had a great visit. It wasn't busy at all at Saturday around noon, we got seated right away. They have a DJ every Saturday until 1 pm. Everyone was very kind from the moment we walked in. Here's what we tried Charcuterie Board- my go to for appetizers since they're fun to put together and this one had the perfect enough of goodies for 2-3 people Godfather Pizza - super yummy 4 out of 5 ! Ajillo Shrimp Pasta - I loved it , the first time I ever had noodles like that & personally I did not think it was spicy at all, great flavor and shrimps were cooked perfectly Mango Paloma - serving size 2+ but could've easily served 4! It was refreshing, not overly sweet & we couldn't taste the alcohol, I enjoyed the extra fruit piece on top

    Amazing food for a great price!! The interior is decorated really well, it's like a dim lit bar but still has plenty of table seating and light for family. The restrooms are very clean and I love that they have a lit up mirror for any girlies who want to touch up on their makeup and stuff! I do wish the server had come around to fill up our waters though. We got the Bianca pizza and Ajillo shrimp pasta. Both were great but the Bianca pizza was my favorite. The mix of cheese, prosciutto, mushroom, and basil is magnificent. It could use a little more mushroom though. For birthdays they bring out a sparkler candle on a complimentary gelato of your choose. We got the mango and it was honestly sooo good!! I personally like that they don't sing to you, just the sparkler candle :)

    Nice cozy pizza place and bar in Tolleson. The pizza has a pillowy crust and is very good although they were a bit stingy on the pepperoni on ours. Caesar was nicely dressed and I enjoyed the spring greens twist. Staff is great and a nice ambiance.

    Chicken Marsala
    Gina B.

    I have been here once before but I apparently did not write a review, I truly cannot recall what I had the first time or the experience. This time, there were quite a bit of people but we did not have to wait for a table. Our waitress and the hostesses both were pleasant, along with the busboy. We ordered a full veggie salad, wings, a supreme pizza and I ordered Chicken Marsala. The veggie salad, I enjoyed so much! I loved the dressing! But for someone who likes basic stuff such as my husband he said he didn't really like the dressing but said he knew I would. It was just the right amount of sweet with a citrus flavor with a very subtle hint of Fig. The Chicken Marsala was flavorful, different than other chicken marsalas I have had but it was really good. My husband said the wings were good, crispy, the brick oven pizza was also really good but could use more sauce, I on the other hand liked the minimal sauce. We all said we would go back to try other dishes. The music they were playing made you want to hang out, nothing like some good old school music playing in the background.

    I'll start with us being greeted and sat quickly, first thing we noticed was the great oldies playlist and lighting. Our server was attentive and the food was incredible! The pizza was so amazing everything down to the sauce and tasty light dough. The motzerella sticks were sooo tasty but very fragile kinda crumbly but in a good way. Like they were super fresh! We also enjoyed a gelato flight which was amazing, our favorite flavor was the flavor of the month!

    BBQ Wings
    Matthew M.

    Hidden restaurant located in the heart of Tollesen. Friendly and attentive services with a dark, low light ambiance. The wings are amazing but the pizza was just ok.

    Pepperoni Sausage
    Mayra B.

    We stopped by today after finding this place on maps. We tried the meat balls , a supreme pizza (delicious), pepperoni sausage pizza and a few pasta plates. In my opinion the Ajillo shrimp pasta was the best. It's got a little kick of spice The service was great. Our waitress was very attentive. The food came quickly after ordering. The decor is lovely. There are multiple TVs with sports games on a cute bar. They have a beautiful backdrop for photos. We also tried their gelato. It was also delicious. We were overall happy with our experience.

    Ajillo sausage (usually shrimp)

    I haven't been in this building since it was fuego and holy crap did they give this puppy a face lift! Transportation your self and family from the small city of tolleson to a grand dinning experiance, bring the lights down a little and enjoy the best environment! I sat at the bar because let's be honest sitting at a table solo is creepy( Steven glanzberg... hope someone gets that). Bartender was very knowledgeable on menu items and seemed to genuinely like giving her recommendation which is a breath of fresh air from other places where people are sick of explaining a menu like you been in a hundred times. I ordered the ajillo shrimp but subbed shrimp for Italian sausage and it was a huge partition a lunch special. Pasta was great not to much sauce to get all over the place but also still got the flavors from sauce, sausage was good and i do t think they get that request often but was on point! See ya soon Roma! Secret menu unlocked- grilled cheese add pepperoni (didn't try but this was the best we could come with from bartender).

Unfortunately the drinks were sub par. Ordered a TNT, and it tasted horrible. The bartender's response was oh, I forgot, the tonic isn't working. This is a basic and necessary ingredient for a bar, especially one inside an up scale resort pouring expensive drinks. Husband ordered a whiskey sour, and it too was not good. Something was off. Liquor did not taste fresh. Light handed pours considering the price point. The bar itself is not clean. Whole place and equipment need a deep clean. Dirty pre-mix bottles, bar tools, glasses, trays, etc. Everything looked grimy, including the garnish tray. Bar was not organized. One could tell the more experienced shift for the early dinner crowd was coming on, getting things somewhat cleaned up. The staff spent a lot of time greeting each other, hugging, chatting. Talking about odd things. There was a lady walking around with a clip board, perhaps the bar manager, talking casually with the staff. The staff were more in tune with each other than what was going on with patrons. Food was ok. Ordered hamburgers. The cookie dessert was not good. Oregano's Italian restaurant has a better cookie pizza dessert. Sadly the Wigwam Bar does not live up to the beautiful resort. Until management can clear things up, don't expect resort quality drinks. Stick with beer. Or do what one guest did and order a bottle and take elsewhere at the property. This is hard to say as a local who loves this lovely historical property.

Downstairs host was nice, asked if we wanted to eat upstairs or down. We decided upstairs. They just told us to head up and talk with the host. We went up. Someone from the bar did shout hi! There was no host seen. There was a handful of workers chatting at the bar even the downstairs host came up and walked by us to join the group chatting. Upstairs had 2 tables of 6-10 people, a handful of small parties outside. We stood there for 4-5 minutes before someone in a St. Patrick's day outfit running food said someone would be with us shortly. Waited another few minutes before the host emerged from the bathroom and sat us. Both my husband and I waited tables and I bartended before (10 years experience). We have a lot of patience and understanding. We were sat and not immediately greeted but a woman came up and quickly dropped water off. Her body language was dismissive and only said just "dropping off water". I really thought it might have been another host or busser, that was tired of getting mistaken for a sever. I brushed it off. We waited so much longer before our server (happened to be the same girl that dropped off the water) came back to take our drink order. She was cold and didn't make eye contact. She was very short with us. Left to put the drink order in. She did bring the kids their soft drinks, but again with an attitude. It was as if we were ruining her day by coming in. 10 min went by. In that time, we saw her walk by and again avoid eye contact. Not even a "your bar drinks are being made", or "I am just going to run these dishes back and come back to take your order. " A really nice bartender came back and started talking with us about baseball because we were coming from a spring training game. After waiting longer and still no sign our server was going to come back in a timely manner, I told my husband, that I would rather leave now and not let this server ruin our experience. There are plenty of places around that I would rather give my money too and they will treat us better. We left, on our way out we did let a manager know. They did apologized and asked where we were sitting. Two stars for the nice female bartender that was decked out in St. Patrick's day attire upstairs. Rating is strictly for service because we didn't get to try anything. I am willing to give this place another try. I will update my review if we do.
