    Main course: Seitan with tuna zest
    Noah B.

    Dined in today for their Easter special menu and it was such an unbelievable experience. Their food is the best vegan food I had in my life. 10 out of 10. Their menu included 2 appetizers, a pasta dish, a main course and a dessert. Water and coffee included in the price. For those who are missing Kombucha while in Italy, don't worry they have you covered! Service was impeccable even if they were very busy. All the courses were served at a perfect pace. The food experience was not rushed at all. Loved that. This restaurant has a beautiful decor and their seating arrangement is spread out on two levels. You can really tell they put a lot of effort in this place and they love what they do...and what can I say about their furry guests?! They will make your experience even better and I loved how unbothered they actually were by us humans. I can't wait to go back both for the food (I want to try all their menu options) and the experience!

    Had an amazing dinner here!!! What an amazing concept...wonderful vegan food and cats there were 4 cats when we visited-don't expect them to be super social with diners, but they are friendly. Decor is trendy and chic. The food is incredible!! Highly recommend the ravioli and the appetizer taco & pain Perdu. Tiramisu is to die for!!! There is an English & Italian menu.

    Eat food while cats lounge around... sounds great! Sadly there was only 3 cats seen in the entire establishment and in true cat trait they were aloof. Can't blame them. Love all the beds, scratch posts, and places to hide for the cats. They look well taken care of and loved However the staff could work on having less catlike personality traits and get an attitude adjustment. Probably the main reason I'd really think hard before returning. Also the reason my friend suggested elsewhere when deciding where to lunch but I was insistent we go here. While not vegan, I used to be vegetarian and love eating veg once in a while. What I really wanted was one of the delicious raw cakes (vegan deserts are my favorite). Went with a friend for lunch, place was nearly empty of patrons. I had not had coffee yet that day and ordered an espresso (cannot get a cafe latte apparently). I inquired about the day's selection of raw cake and was rudely told "it's lunch, you cannot have cake and coffee". Oh ok, sorry mom didn't realize I can't eat whatever I want. Ordered my backup of the jackfruit tartare. Food arrived, pad thai for my friend and my jackfruit tartare. The tartare was good but TOO much what I can only guess is vegan mayo, overpowered the dish and I love jackfruit so that was disappointing. It did fill me up so the attitude from the server that I did not want a raw cake now was unnecessary. Cute ambiance. Cute concept. Love taking care of animals. However staff need to learn to be less arrogant and also maybe let people order what they want. It's not like I wasn't trying to eat anything nor was the place busy at all.

    Came here for some vegan breakfast and the cats of course. I ordered a cappuccino with hazelnut milk, pancakes, chocolate muffin, the unicorn drink with two sides of whipped cream topped with cocoa powder. Everything was vegan and sooo bombbb. Really delicious. Loved everything here. The cats were super cute, they had a box with mini stuffed animals that represented each one with their names. I would love to come back here again. Amazing.

    So glad to have found Romeow!! We have been in Rome for about 3 days now, first time in Italy. Frankly, we've been disappointed with the lack of hospitality and the general absence of customer service. However, the staff at Romeow, (the two-legged & the four-legged ones alike) have redeemed their city!!! The food is amazing, the staff is extremely accommodating and friendly, and the gatti all are friendly and soft! (We can recommend the beet root gnocchi or the cashew ricotta-filled ravioli. Save room for the chocolate mousse cake- it is out of this world!) Seriously, the smiles at the Cat Bistrot were the first ones we've seen all week. Then add in some beautiful feline dinner companions- what more can we say? I can't say enough great about this place! Thank you so much, Romeow! You just made our day!

    This was the most amazing restaurant I have every been to in my entire life. The food is unreal, as is the hospitality and the cats were sooo sweet. Amazing, amazing place.

    Wonderful concept! Having lunch with cats Very cute bistro, however their menu only had one sandwich available. The menu on the website had many more dishes. We had a healthy tomato, olive & avocado sandwich & the chocolate mousse cake. I really enjoyed the cake! They had 6 cats & they were all friendly but most of them were napping I also had a banana & berry smoothie

    We had a fantastic time at the Romeow Cat Bistrot in Rome. We had never been to a cat cafe before but while we were on vacation, we decided to look online if there were any nearby, and there was! The atmosphere was adorable and cozy, and the overall design of the cafe was super neat and interesting. There are plenty of spaces for the kitties to relax nearby the customers, so there were always cats close by. The cats were super friendly, especially the white one! If you don't want to just come for the cats, the food was also really great here! I only wished that the menu had a bit more options in it.

    Awesome place! The interior is very hip and stylish. The atmosphere as well as all the hosts are very warm and welcoming. The menu is pretty original and everything is prepared very well and delicious! There are not that many cats and they were mostly sleeping by themselves but they are all very chill and enjoy being pet and played with. When we left they even called a taxi for us. The hosts that is, not the cats.

    Great atmosphere, very relaxing. Came and had breakfast. Very nice waitstaff. Awesome to just chill and watch the cats.

    Loved this bistro! You should make reservation, it's very easy and comfortable via Facebook chat. The food was awesome, everything we ordered tasted great and the atmosphere was lovely. The cats minded their own business, but it was nice to have them around. Thumbs up!

    We were so excited to enjoy vegan food while being surrounded by cute kitties and we were not disappointed! The food was delicious and had the presentation of a 5 star restaurant. We arrived after their kitchen closed but they were kind enough to open it back up for us and I couldn't have been happier since Romeow was top of my list of vegan restaurants to visit in Rome. With adorable cats and great vegan food what more could you want!

    From the hospitality to the cats to the food to the music- ALL INCREDIBLE! We have 20 cats so seeing the cats was a treat for us since we are currently missing our babies so much. The ambience is so cute and the music playing in the background was just perfect. We ordered so much food we were embarrassed to cancel the main course but the owner was so sweet and had no problem with us canceling it. We had the taco for an appetizer that was out of this world. Also, the raw caprese that was delicious. For our entree we had a rice in a tomato dish and pad Thai. So good! Nice portions and worth the price. We finished off with the tastiest tiramisu and cappuccino of our lives. Servers are great, the owner is amazing and the cats are awesome. Love this place and can't wait to go back. Dinner starts at 8pm.

    Almond cappuccino and mandarin cake surrounded by cats, what else could you want?

    Look, I didn't come all the way to Rome expecting to have one of the best sushi meals I've had in…read moreyears--but Sushisen absolutely delivered. We grabbed seats at the rotating bar (kaiten style), and let me just say that if you're someone who loves watching food go by like it's an edible runway show, this is your jam. Plate after plate of beautifully crafted nigiri, maki, and fresh bites just glide past you, and you can take whatever catches your eye. It's a low-pressure, high-satisfaction way to eat. Nothing felt mass-produced--everything tasted carefully made, with that clean, precise flavor you hope for in sushi. Our favorites were the salmon belly nigiri, which was buttery and rich without being overwhelming. The shrimp tempura roll had the perfect crunch-to-soft-rice ratio. And the spicy tuna had just enough kick to keep it interesting without trying too hard. Even the wasabi felt dialed in--not a sinus assault, just a smart accent. And whoever's in charge of plating back there clearly respects the artform. These plates aren't just tasty--they're a little bit elegant. The interior manages to feel sleek and modern while still being cozy. And since we were seated at the counter we got to watch the chefs at work which was a true highlight. Quiet craftsmanship, no fuss, just focus and intention. Staff were kind and helpful, and while I didn't sample the sake or wine (for religious reasons), the servers never made it weird. Just warm, professional hospitality all around. Pro tip: Sit at the bar, go with an open mind, and trust your eyes. If it looks good, it is good. And maybe skip breakfast--you'll want room for more plates than you think.

    Cold food that had been rotating for hours. Food on the conveyer isn't rotated, despite rotating…read morefor hours. Apparent unconcern from the waitstaff. Embarrassing if this Michelin rated restaurant. Stay away
