    This was the moldy bread that was given to us.

    The pizza and spaghetti were just okay, but the bread that was given as a side to the spaghetti was moldy and it was not worth having to drive back to replace it.

    Left: a quarter of a cheese calzone. Right: slice of white pizza (no red sauce) with fresh roma tomatoes, basil, and ricotta.

    Our third vacation in the area and the Roma Pizza never disappoints. Something as simple as a slice of cheese pizza is Italian art. Best enjoyed at the restaurant on their patio but is still awesome as carry out back to a rental house. Sterling service in the front and blessed Italian hands tossing dough in the back elevate mere pizza to "must have" status. Do not overlook the non-pizza items like calzones and subs.

    The perfect beach pizza joint! The whole place smells amazing as soon as you walk in. The staff is extremely (and genuinely) friendly and the pizza comes out quickly. The pizzas have generous amounts of toppings and the best pizza sauce I've ever tasted. Outdoor seating is just icing on the cake. After the meal, I decided to try the tiramisu... not the best tiramisu, but I would not in the slightest let that keep you from trying this incredible local restaurant!

    If you've never been to the Crystal Coast region of NC for the beach and you're accustomed to how things operate in NJ or MD this is like another planet. Not a lot of nearby dining options and things even in season are very slow which means that no one keeps late hours. We were staying in Pine Knoll Shores and wanted pizza. GrubHub has nothing. Door Dash has a few limited options but most of them are coming from over in Morehead City which equals longer waits and higher fees. No thanks. Door Dash referenced Roma as an option but said that delivery was not possible since it was too close to their closing time. Mind you it was only 8:20. I called the store and they had no problem taking the order. Fifteen minutes later, I'm there and everything is ready. Surreal that the lights are off on the dining room side and everyone is waiting on me so that they can close up for the night at 9. I hate to harp but I'm just so use to pizza places in beach towns staying open in season until at least until 11 if not several hours later. I digress. Why the two star knock off? This pizza lacked a lot of flavor and to me tasted like the epitome of "A-OK". While it certainly wasn't bad, it's also not worth $15. It truly is no different from the local place I frequent at home which is selling two similar eight slice larges for $18. I get it that it's beach pricing but still, too much. The one noteworthy addition to my experience when I picked up the food was the great conversation I had with the two women working. Very hospitable to take the time to explain some things about the area and how things have gone since Hurricane Florence. They were were first rate. Friendly and efficient at Roma no doubt but the pizza was very average and the prices are on the high side which to me puts it right at three stars.

    Pepperoni, sausage, double onion, mushroom, green pepper --- Roma Special (minus olives).  DELICIOUS!!!

    This is our second time here (once last fall) and now today for pickup. This is FANTASTIC pizza and the staff are SUPER friendly. We had the Roma special today and it was soooo fresh and perfectly baked. The crust is just the right thick/thinness for the high quality toppings. Thus far, this is THE best pizza in the area.

    We were a little anxious because of some negative reviews. We ate here several years ago and loved…read moreit. We still love it. Service was attentive, the wine list extensive, the menu seductive and the portions impressive. Chef Paolo stopped by to confirm I wanted spicy marinara, as it is, indeed, "spicy." MI had the Pescatore Alla Sorento (see pic). The platter is filled with clams the size of my fist, calamari, mussels, monster shrimp. In other words these are premium ingredients chosen, not frozen. Served over pasta in a delightful marinara full of tomato chunks and spices to titillate. Most people would prefer the sweet marinara. My partner had the lobster ravioli, served in a delightful cream sauce. It was divine. It is a challenge to cook such a medley of seafood and get it all right. The large clams and shrimp need to be cooked to the right tenderness, but, by then, the small clams and mussels are rubbery. Hence 4 stars. But, despite others' experiences, we were treated very well and the food is authentic. Given the quality and care that went into each dish the prices were very reasonable. We will be back, for sure.

    Easily one of the worst and weirdest dining experiences of my life. Before our entrées even…read morearrived: The waiter mixed some oil and balsamic together in a display of pageantry for the warm bread he would bring us. He then forgot our bread for half an hour, wouldn't let my wife look at the wine menu and chose a cheap prosecco for her... and put a cherry in it?... and then the antipasto appetizer we ordered was just a bunch of canned foods and warm deli meats dumped on a plate for $22. Wife ordered veal, I ordered chicken, and what do you know, we both get chicken! We send hers back to get the veal and we hear from the dining room the owner and cooks and waiter SCREAMING back and forth at each other in the back about it. My chicken, which was very dry and overcooked btw, is boxed up to take home by the time her veal arrives. And what do you know, presentation has gone out the window! They dumped all of the ingredients onto a plate and made veal soup! The vibe was the kitchen was angry we returned the dish and threw the dish into the plate. Finally, my wife can eat her veal (soup?). But oh wait, they've taken her silverware when they cleaned up our appetizer plates. Another 10 mins pass. She finally gets a knife to start eating. The waiter apologized and offers her another glass of wine and she accepts, thinking it'll be on the house considering the disaster service we've had, but it goes on the bill! The veil reminded her of "smashed fried chicken. and it was dry." Finally we say let's get outta here and ask for the check. The waiter offers dessert; just the check please. The waiter says, are you sure? We have a few really good specials you should try. Just the check please. He turns the leave, and then looks back over at my wife, "just imagine you are at home later, about to watch a movie, wouldn't some cake just hit the spot?" The bartender starts hollering about how good the dessert is, my wife says no thank you, just the check. At this point my wife just looks at me and starts laughing. I laugh too. We both laugh. I do not tip. We head home with leftover veal soup and talk about how I must write my first bad yelp review in the car ride home. Tl dr: The food sucked, the service was worse. + 1 star for good bread, half an hour late.

Our waitress (Nicole) was very overwhelmed and slow. She was nice enough when she came around but the service was not great. Now the food...we had appetizer bacon wrapped scallops they were good. But the dinners were awful. The Key Lime Shrimp and Lobster pasta was inedible; I really should have sent it back. It had no flavor other than bitter lime (and I love lime!) I see after reading reviews I am not the only one to have this complaint, probably should remove it from menu. The blacked ahi tuna had good flavor but was cold as was the quinoa (not sure if it's supposed to be served warm or cold). Our son had a filet which he enjoyed. Our girls got a side of fries and they were $8 which is crazy to me (no cheese, no toppings). Overall was highly disappointed. Was a waste of $150. It's a shame because it's a great location but the service lacked as did the food.
