We tried a new location and OH MY we will be back!! We received this bag fr free Italian nachos, fettuccine Alfredo with steak, lasagna, soup and unlimited breads ticks! We also had cheese ravioli, soup and all you can eat spaghetti! It was a feast and served quickly and warm! We love coming here because it's so inviting and everyone is so kind! The decr is od rustic Italian, draws you in to stay awhile read more

I have not been here in yearssssss! Romano's Macaroni Grill has always been just "alright" to me. I have never been excited to eat at this restaurant. Sure, the bread and oil are good. But that is about it lol My mom loves the bread and oil that they give you. It is freshly baked and delicious in the oil. The ambiance was nice and quiet- verrrry quiet! It was empty on a Saturday. The food though, very mediocre. I have been to this location a few times in the past. Mostly, because someone else wanted it. Not on my own volition. Yet again, I found myself coming here, not by my choice lol But I thought, okay- just have an open mind. Did that and was not impressed. I ordered the simple salmon, added broccoli, and mashed potatoes on the side. The salmon was all right, very bland. The broccoli was fine. The potatoes had the skin on them and were not flavorful at all. I ate all my food because I was starving. But it was unsatisfying overall. My dad had stomach cramps right after we ate. My mom did not finish her food, so that tells you something. Overall, pretty lackluster. read more

Service: Great constantly attentive did a great job with keeping up with us. Price: Went during lunch it was great prices practically $13-$15 for each dish and the portions were very good. Food: Chicken Parm: 3/5 - was okay not a whole lot of flavor but the chicken itself was juicy. Mac n Cheese: 4/5 - Definitely not mac and cheese also no truffle flavor kinda just tasted like an alfredo penne with cheese and breadcrumbs but that being said it was very delicious Pasta Milano - 3.5/5 was a good sauce a little too much rosemary for my taste definitely over powered the whole dish, my wife really liked it I thought chicken was a little dry but the pasta was cooked very good. The Vibe: This place has an early 2000's tuscany vibe definitely the style feels a little dated but in a good way like nostalgic. read more

The Pasta Milano dish is so good here! It's on their lunch menu side which is week days only from opening til 3pm. Comes with a side salad. Delicious! Seriously a perfect pasta dish! Great Service and chill ambiance. This place could use more support during the lunch time hours. Their lunch menu is reasonably priced and you get a good portion size amount of food. read more

Jorge was awesome. We haven't been here in years but will definitely add it to the list. chicken scalloping was just like I remember. Bruchetta was great. My husband's food was also good. Fast, quick, friendly service by Jorge. give this place a try!! read more

Love Macaroni Grill! Went for lunch and ordered from the lunch menu. Was a little more than pre COVID but well worth it. Lots of delicious food. I only touch the lasagna after eating the mozzarella sticks, the best I ever had, Brussels sprouts, was sweet and tasty, and salad. I'd go back again. The service was better than some fine dining restaurants! Was excellent!!! read more

We do like Romano's Macaroni Grill on occasion and the food is very consistent and tasty. The service is always good and people are super friendly. We do eat there sometimes which provides a nice ambiance but mostly we order take out for pick up. The food is good, the price can be pricey though but again if the food is good, I am willing to pay for it. We ordered the Tortellacci pomodoro and we love it. The food is always fresh. Most of the time you also get a nice piece of bread with the order, this time they seem to have forgotten to put that in. Wasn't a big deal for us. Would have given this place a 5star rating but the price makes that a bit difficult from a value perspective. read more

Waiter could not get my order right. First dish served was nowhere near what I ordered. Replacement was also wrong, but I gave up and said nothing. I remember this restaurant on Friday nights when we had to wait for almost an hour to get a table, and it's empty now. Sad but kind of understandable given poor service. read more

Great lunch..reasonable prices..Server "Ruby" was awesome... Business was nice and quiet for conversation. Husband had "Truffle Mac & Cheese " he seriously didn't taste any truffles. However, he loved the dish. I did not like the flavor (just me perhaps ‍) read more

From outside you would think it's a fancy restaurant, even when your first walk in you get that idea. Then when sit, you find out there opposite. The menu is paper and mostly torn. The tables have white paper on them like we're a bunch of kids and the food was kind of disappointing. The steak was really bland, all is flavor came from the cheese. The bread was hard and not good. The pasta was bland. The only delicious thing was the prosciutto appetizer, but even the marinara was very basic and bland. read more

When we arrived, the restaurant was quiet. Good for us, bad for business. We were skeptical at first and thought to try again. We were sat quickly and Sam, our server was great. (Hostess could try to smile and talk a little to start someone's experience well.) We ordered drinks and Calamari to start. Then we put in our orders. We didn't wait very long and the food was Fantastic. Flavors, Freshness and quality was on point. We were pleasantly surprised how our experience became. Neverless, we will now be back again. Thanks to Management foe getting it right. read more

Worst service. First off it was dead, Chili's was packed. Waiting for 10 mins for someone to seat us, host stand was empty. Then we we sat down, not one person greeted us or even gave us eye contact. We continued to wait for another 20 mins. I was clearly with my son who is 8 and they didn't give us a kids menu either. So during the time I waited, I wouldn't have known what to order for him anyway. Not going back, we left and went to Chili's. read more

Went to their happy hour yesterday, and the deal was great and drinks and food were delicious. Our server was busy but still attentive and speedy, and he gave us some great recommendations (wish I had gotten his name). Would definitely return! read more

The food was decent would have given 5 stars but some items weren't that great and the restaurant itself self was a very relaxed atmosphere. But the thing that made this place great was our server Farrah she was on top of it and made the whole experience well worth it! read more

The service was great, the hostess and waitress were very nice and attentive. My boyfriend ordered the chicken fettuccine and I got the mushroom ravioli for an appetizer we got bread and fried calamari. Unfortunately, about an hour after leaving my stomach started to hurt and I thought I just over ate. I get home and I'm in the worst emotional pain another hour and a half later I end up throwing up all of my lunch. read more

Food is good , starters stuffed mushrooms with goat cheese a must . Bruschetta good next time I will ask for extra garlic and goat cheese instead of Ricotta cheese . My favorite bottle of Daou Sauvignon is a must . Seafood ravioli was good . My server Denise was awesome , great service & very attentive. Ambiance is lounge like . Good music and not to bright . read more

I need to leave a review. We had Farah as our server; NEVER let us go without water. She also helped me learn a new letter: "F." Probably one of the best service experiences I've ever had. I'd be so happy to visit again! Food was good. read more

This was one of my favorite restaurants that closed in my homestate, so while visiting CA, I jumped at the opportunity to eat here. (Sadly, the one in Rancho Cucamonga also closed so this location was a bit of a drive). It was quite empty when we arrived on a weekday night, with only a few tables occupied. I got the stuffed mushroom appetizer and loved the fresh bread. It was still the same where your server writes their name on the table. My dad got the shrimp portofino and the serving was ample and more than enough to share with me. We got the chocolate cake for dessert- it was just as big and delicious as we had rememebered, but could've been slightly warmer for the chocolate to melt. 2023 #13 read more

Very disappointed of this establishment. Today my husband and I got discriminated for being gay couple. We were seated by a tattooed waiter lady to another part of the restaurant were we waited long time patiently . She was seating straight couples at the main dining section where they were attended fast and on time. We still have the benefit of the doubt and my husband ask for service, they said no one knew who was the waiter and to wait. We waited and went to the front desk again and nothing. After 30-45 minutes of waiting my husband and I talked to the Manager and told him that all the couples and parties that were at the main table had already their food and no one had give us water or attempted to give us any service. We can believe at this time there is this kind of discrimination from this establishment. If you are LGBTQ+ community please do not go to this place they are discriminatory against us. read more

This is so dry and stale and gross and the lady fingers are separate and unsoaked. For over 10 dollars this is so disappointing read more

Look, it's Macaroni Grill it's not going to be a gourmet meal - but it is good and a nice change of pace. Bread came to the table warm and very yummy with oil and vinegar to dip it in. Our server was Mia, she was nothing short of nice, attentive and I enjoyed our interaction. I had the mushroom ravioli and my husband had the special which was a parm crusted sole. Both were good and we enjoyed our meal. He also had an Old Fashioned which he said was very tasty. All in all a good little date night. Wasn't too crowded either so that is always a plus. read more

There are many many Italian restaurants to choose from, and many other choices of food also, but we chose after working ALL day and it was our 3rd year Anniversary we were Starving and headed to a favorite place and decided on Romanos Macaroni Grill, we had a good meal ordered Steak and potato and the husband ordered steak and potato also with Lobster bisque soup, hes never had it before but it was good also. His steak was a little tough he asked for it medium rare. We had 2 root beers also and (our server who was incredible attentive and very professional witty and beautiful ask for YVONNE) was AMAZING the management was something less then to be desired though) The decor and ambiance was really romantic and very clean and Beautiful. Overall, the meal the service and our night was Beautiful Thank you Romanos for making our ANNIVERSARY DINNER nite such a beautiful experience!!! read more

I got the salmon with the soup and salad option. Food was 7/10 but service from Jorge was 5/10. He had a rude demeanor and his jokes were dry and rude. We felt rushed by him and he wasn't very helpful in answering our questions about the menu. read more

We were celebrating our 35 th anniversary. We were going to go to a very high end restaurant. But decided to go somewhere less expensive and local. We are so glad we did. The mushroom ravioli was exquisite. Salmon with pasta was cooked to perfection. Thank you chef's. Over the last 20 years the food has gone up and down. I miss the lobster ravioli from years ago. I'm coming back tomorrow for more. The service was also great. Thank you all for a lovely evening. read more

Romano's Macaroni Grill - Tiramisu - Italian Near Me - Corona, California

This place needs more light!!!!!! It's so dark in here. It's never busy, it takes a long time to be seated per usual visit. They seem to sit ppl near the kitchen because it's closer makes no sense when they can sit people near the window, boy I wish they would open those windows because I literally had to use my cell phone flashlight to read the menu. It would be nice if they had a more selection of beer on tap. Service is pretty slow I don't understand it when there's not many people dining. My pasta was good as usual and that's what brings me back. read more

We went there 5:00 on Sunday to meet family. I noticed walking in such a huge restaurant but hardly any people . I've been to another macaroni grill and it was always very busy so I was shocked . We were seated then waitress took our drink orders . Not one IPA beer on the menu just light beer , few kinds . I ordered caprese salad and so did my husband . The ingredients weren't tasting good to us . Cheese had a wierd aftertaste ( old ) and tomatoes were mushy . I couldn't eat since I didn't want to risk getting sick . They were nice brought me a salad instead . Unfortunately I tasted sand or dirt in the lettuce when chewing but I felt bad and tried to eat as much as I could . I went to restroom. It smelled like old grease smell very potent . I think this restaurant really needs to be cleaned painted and remodeled .I have never been here before and this was my experience. read more

Brought to a table that had a dirty napkin on the seat and straw wrappers on the small condiment shelf. Took a while for server to return and take order. I noticed her huddling with other staff and with a person who seemed to be trying to coordinate the staff but this was causing delay as well. The food was okay, but not worth the price. I continued to notice a lack of organization. Staff huddling, walking around but not really doing much. Our server rarely appeared and never offered more water. It took forever flag someone down to get a to go box and the check. Not inclined to return. The place has taken a downturn. Lacking proper direction by lead staff. read more

We went there for the Valentines special which is good from the 10-16 of February 2025. The service and the food were all fabulous! They have Monday takeout specials that are buy one get one dinner free which are also good. We love their Chicken Scallopini which we have ordered ever since they opened almost 18-20 years ago. They also have a delicious shrimp Portofino. If you haven't been there, it is a must try! read more

Your service sucks, your food is ok at most, you don't have most of the stuff on the menu, wine glasses were dirty and had lipstick on them, dirty tables and bunch of flies around. Charged us for food that they didn't have and when I asked for it to be waived, they took forever until they came back. JUST SHUT DOWN!!! read more

I placed a to go online order, upon arriving extremely early ( 38 minutes ); I was greeted upon entry by a very wonderful customer service oriented employee by the name of Lindsey. I used the restroom which in my opinion was quit clean and then proceed to the bar to wait. I decided to order a drink and appetizers and I really didn't anticipate the amount of food that it entailed. The mozzarella was fresh and hot and very tasty! The crucnch when biting into it and the gooey mozzarella oozing out was sooo good and paired with the dipping sauce was sooo awesome! The Mac and cheese bites were really good ( surprisedly I liked them too ). The drink I ordered was not on the menue though Kyra accommodate d me and I really appreciated that. Thank you for an awesome first time experience at this location everyone! I rather frequent this location than the Temecula one which I had to wait an extra 30 minutes for a to go order. read more

Romano's Macaroni Grill - CRISPY FRESH MOZZARELLA SIGNATURE MAC CHEESE BITES Bahama mama adult beverage - Italian Near Me - Corona, California

When we arrived at Macaroni Grill in Corona, it wasn't very busy. Yet we had to wait, along with several other people, for a waitress to show up for her shift. The waiting area was then full. It seemed like they had a short staff. As far as the food goes, the marinara sauce on the special seafood dish was way too spicy for me to eat. Also, the waitress forgot my soup that I ordered. At least I filled up on appetizers and bread. I guess because they were short staffed, that the service was slow. We won't be going back to that location again. D&S read more

Have not been to one in years since the closure in City of Industry. Took a 45 minute drive out here to just enjoy the nostalgia of this place. Glad they still had the rosemary bread but quite disappointed that the Mussels in tomato sauce appetizer and Lemon Passion cake is no longer on the menu. Highly recommend it to be place back on the menu, please and thank you! Because of this I'm giving it a 3 star rating, however, a 5 star rating would have been given because of our amazing server Denisse. read more

I brought my best friend to dinner after a day at the spa. We got lucky enough to meet Amanda, our server. Her upbeat personality, and unique insights to the menu items were so awesome. She personalized our experience and made our whole night so much fun. She also brought out dessert for the birthday girl with a trick candle and had the whole table bursting with laughter. She is a GEM!! The kitchen staff and manager were laughing from the kitchen while my friend was trying to blow out her impossible candle. What an awesome end to our already perfect day. Thank you Macaroni Grill for adding more wonderful memories to our day! -Erica :) read more

Haven't gone back to this place in years and nothing has changed! Terrible food returned and the service was even worse!
