Within this small plaza, you will find a pizzeria with lots of possibility.
Website: 4/5
It has the standard pizzeria template produced by Slice for its menu items with a flat generic description at the bottom. It is easy to navigate nonetheless, for you are immediately brought to the menu where it lists many items there. However, only a few of the menu items had images accompanying them.
Brand: 5/5
The overall brand effuses the standard Italian pizzeria, for there is a large Italian chef statue greeting any customers from behind the glass window, and there are plenty of menu items available behind the glass counters. The sign does make use of font with the cursive "Romeo's" and the bold, straight letters of "Pizza."
Ambiance: 4/5
The environment definitely brought me at ease, for the presence of food behind the counters and the large space of the table sufficed enough. Although the table we chose did have an uneven rickety stance, I would say that I felt comfortable throughout the time. The space did not accommodate the customer area, though I did not have a problem with it.
The new management expressed interest in the past to putting up on the wall canvases produced by local artists. Indeed, the walls did not have any personality that distinguishes Romeo's Pizza from any other pizzeria.
Service: 5/5
The staff were incredibly accommodating with good rapport. We experienced no real issues when ordering.
Wait Time: 5/5
The food came without any problems or delays.
Food: 5/5
I ordered the Buffalo Calamari and a bottle of water, which also came with a bowl of bleu cheese sauce and two lemon slices. One of the staff said "That looks good," and I could not agree more. This is the first time I ever had calamari and I am truly grateful for this first experience. While it did have a sharp smell that stayed, it nevertheless had the savory taste that had spiciness but not too much. The blue cheese sauce especially neutralizes the heat while giving it a filling flavor. The forms of the calamari held, for they looked and tasted well-cooked.
Worth The Money?: 5/5
Romeo's Pizza's signature dish is the House of Jumbo Pizza, which is a thin crust pizza filled with many toppings evenly portioned. I could see how it could serve as part of catering for a celebration.
If the staff encapsulated the establishment into an aphorism, it would be something like "Quality is what we strive for." Indeed, I would like to see that ideal of quality to become the cornerstone of Romeo's Pizza. I could see it with that Buffalo Calamari. I felt the pleasant, fulfilled ambiance that the food brought me within the restaurant and throughout the day. With the right amount of spiciness and heartiness, the Buffalo Calamari was the meal that I had no regrets trying. The wait time appropriately fitted the meal's preparation, and the service fitted.
Despite the narrow space of the pizzeria, it did not outweigh the food I ordered, for it reflected the Italian pizzeria characteristic of cooking a traditional Italian dish with a modern twist. Nothing about the ambiance disrupted me during our wait time, not even the rickety table.
If new management is in charge of Romeo's Pizza, then I would suggest renaming the establishment, since another, unrelated "Romeo's Pizza" exists in the same township in Raintree Plaza. This one is in Cousin's Plaza, so maybe the new name could be "Cousin Romeo's Pizza?" I would also recommend adding more images of the menu items to the website's menu. Also, if the new management is open to decorating the walls with canvases, I would be curious as to what the common themes would be.
I will ultimately say that the price is worth it.

I definitely see hope for Romeo's Pizza.
