Most of the food was OK, nothing great but the brisket was non-edible. Had to throw away a pound of it. Nasty, every piece so full of gristle that you could not even cut it. All a waste - Never Again read more

Breakfast at Romi's. Driving by saw them open for breakfast so we stopped in. Very friendly waitress helped us find a seat and took our orders. French toast with bacon and eggs and a Denver omelette with coffee and mimosas. Great way to start off the day. Food was excellent and the portions were generous would recommend to anyone looking for a great breakfast in the Nice area. read more

Got a tri-tip sando and a brisket sando to go. Well-prepared and tasty meats, tangy sauce. Large proportions, so we're saving half for tomorrow's lunch. read more

The food & service was not bad. However, they charge a surcharge fee for using a credit card (the server told me the fee came from my credit card company, which is NOT true). I did not see that the imposition of such a fee listed on their menu or anywhere elese. read more

We have seen Romi's several times as we passed by on Hwy 20. We finally had occasion to stay in Nice and Romi's was recommended to us by our B&B hosts. The first thing we noticed was the smell of the smoker - subliminal advertising at its best! Inside, we were greeted by friendly staff. We both ordered the pulled pork sandwich (his with BBQ sauce, mine without) and Romi's Blonde Ale. The meat was smoked to perfection. The soft bun was toasted lightly and held up well. The table side house made BBQ sauce was delicious. And it was all complimented wonderfully by the beer. read more

I have been really disappointed lately. The last 3 times has been really bad. I ordered the chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes. The potatoes were awful. It was more like a old bak potato that they scooped out and just smashed a little. Then on My birthday I was going to order dinner. I called 14 times with no answer and finally on the 15 th call someone answered and asked if I could hold. I said yes and they hung up. I called back and no answer. The next time I ordered biscuits and gravy. The biscuits where hard and dirty. They where microwaved way to long to reheat them. The final time was yesterday and ordered the chicken fried steak with scrambled eggs. The scrambled eggs where so bad and so dried out. It was like they were reheated after sitting a long time. it Was a to go order and I got a bowl and went to put the eggs in the bowl and the bottom of the eggs were so disgusting. I will never eat there again read more

Romi's Brew & BBQ - My scrambled eggs. It's like they had been cooked and stored in the fridge to long and just reheated. - Barbeque Near Me - Nice, California

We tried this BBQ place while in town visiting, and the food was very disappointing. We got the smoked chicken and pork ribs dinner, with Mac n cheese and baked potato sides. The chicken was so over cooked, dry and tough. The pork ribs were not cooked properly, not falling off the bone, chewy and hard to eat. The baked potato was hard and not fully cooked. The Mac n cheese was completely flavorless, no cheese taste and not even salted. The corn on the cob and garlic bread was the only good thing on the plate. read more

Me and my husband came to this restaurant while we were on vacation and it was poorly ran!! They had 1 server doing everything, from cleaning tables, taking phone orders, customer dinning orders and couldn't even make the drink we wanted. She had to ask the chef to make a bar drink, which the chef was the only other employee with here. This is a really bad run business and me, as a chef for many yrs, I was just embarrassed as to what I seen. How are you going to have 2 employees in the building for a Saturday!!! With that being said we had a beer ans left!!! read more

I bring my son here when I come to visit. Great menu, lots of variety and the food is always delicious. Service is great and I love the small town feel. Makes my mouth water thinking about it! read more

Smoked chicken wasn't edible. I think they left it in the smoker a few days too many. Only about a third of meat was actually tender enough to chew.. the rest was hard and dried to a crisp. Not ordering that ever again! read more

Romi's Brew & BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Nice, California

This place is the best bbq spot on the lake . Prices are great . If you're into IPA beer, you must check out the Pliny option . Happy hour offers 4 dollar beer from 3-6 pm , 7 days a week ( truly unbelievable) . It's a must try if youre in town. read more

Friday is BBQ Beef ribs butThe last two times I had take out and when I got home and open the order it was pice from other slabs with little meat on the ribs. Don't due take out read more

They have a great salad! It's pulled pork , apples, blue cheese, and the dressing is great! But everything else is is subpar boarding on not good.. the meats okay, not special. Sanwhiches are once again okay, sides are not good.. at all, Mac and cheese is always over cooked. read more

Romis is fairly new to lake county. Over the time they have definitely improved alot. They smoke all their own meats right there and as soon as you pull up your mouth is watering. Soo mamy delicious things to try!! Tri-tip dip and the philly cheese steak are the best!! Tri tip nachos, burgers, salads, chili, and smoked chicken wings. My only complaint here is the fries!!! They are limp and soggy. They are natural cut and done on site so they are fresh but I dont eat them at all. Always get tossed and that is just a travesty Romis!!! Crisp the fries!!! read more

Hungry and decided to stop. This place is amazing. Pulled pork and tri tip were off the hook! Service was pretty awesome too! Definitely will roll back through for more eats!!! Hats off the the smoker! You've done your job very well my friend!!! read more

My son recommended for me to try the ribs. I ordered pork ribs. Hate to say it but my teeth worked overtime to get the meat of the bone, tough as nails. Sorry to say but I make better ribs at home where the meat falls off the bone. I don't like to fight the meat off the bone. I will think twice before I go there again. Better off going to lower lake BBQ, prices right and soft meat, good BBQ sauce and coleslaw. read more

I have gone here a couple of times. The first time going I enjoyed it my food was made in a timely manner. The food had great taste and the customer service was on point. When we went back and brought family this time. It was a whole different story. Our food wasn't cooked. The waitress got every single person's order wrong. But that won't stop us from coming back and trying it again..we thought maybe it was a bad day. read more

This is the best BBQ joint I have been to within 200 miles of the bay area. Hands. Down. It takes me back to the homegrown BBQ back home. The staff is friendly and hospitable, the pork is juicy and the burgers are to die for. I highly recommend the homemade cobbler. This is a great spot to sit on a patio with the breeze coming off the lake. Bonus- they even gave my doggo some love with brisket shavings and a water without having to ask. read more

Ok so I give this place one star for the smell outside, cleanliness (it's recently remodeled) and the niceness of the waitress, Tiffany Hignite. The chicken dinner with salad, corn on the cobb, tri-tip chili, and garlic bread. The chicken was not fully cooked and really didn't have a bbq smoke flavor ( I still ate it); the bbq sauce was way to sweet, It was almost like eating brown sugar with a hint of other stuff that goes in bbq sauce; the salad was lettuce with a LOT of onion (not diced), a small piece of tomato, and cheese, with a super small paper cup of salad dressing; the corn was cooked good, not flavorful at all; the tri-tip chili was watery, if there was tri-tip in it it had to be ground up, could do better with Dennisons or even Nalleys; the garlic bread was okay, I think the bread they used made it better than the flavor was; $2.89 for coffee and iced tea. Good thing the refills where free. They're not a new restaurant. They have had a Romi's in Ukiah for years. They might be new to Lake County but not new. They should already have "established" ways of doing things without hiccups.. If a place is a bbq restaurant....they should at least know how to bbq before opening the doors for business.....and staff should know how to cook what they are cooking......otherwise it's just a disappointment. Rogelio Hernandez, the owner has stated "We're good at barbecue, so it should work here." - Well your no where near, "good at barbecue." read more

This was our 2nd time at Romi's and it was a great disappointment. This place is always way understaffed and waiting is the norm. last night we were asked about drinks and placed our order. 10 mins later the same waitress asked us if we would like something to drink. We placed our order again and waited. Another 10 mins passed and I went to the counter and got our drinks. the waitress then came by and got our food order. As she was taking our order, a party of 6 came in and sat down. Once more we waited and waited. we order a 2nd round of drinks and once more after 10 mins I went to the counter and got the drinks myself. as we were laughing about the delay, the party of 6 was served their dinner. We left after paying for our drinks. It doesn't matter if the owner is too cheap to hire enough staff or the staff is simply incompetent, dining here leaves a bad taste in your mouth. read more

Got into town late and we walked in 30 minutes before closing. I asked if it was still ok to come in since I knew that we would be in there past closing and the waitress was ok with it. She provided excellent service and was friendly all while trying to get ready to close. The food came out quick and was delicious. My son had an awesome burger (the John Wayne), wife had Tri-Tip salad, daughter had the kids chicken tenders, and I had the Tri-Tip sandwich. The salad came with a huge portion of tri-tip that my wife could not finish and my daughter thought the tenders were the best she ever had. As for me, my sandwich was great and very flavorful. They have a nice selection of beers as well. I definitely recommend and thank you Leala for your excellent service. read more

Great little local mom and pop spot great food great service. Great portions and excellent price we had the tritip dip and chicken strips. Mother and daughter running it very impressive. Will be back. read more

We came here last night for dinner, party of 6. They we very busy and we felt sorry for the waitresses only two with all those people and they were new and had no clue. We sat down and waited for 10min and I finally got up with our drink order and walked to counter to tell waitress. And also told her we were there 10 min and she went over and talked to the table that came in after us and served them. After all said and done the girl rocked with getting all of us taken care of. The girl deserves a raise and the boss needs to give them 2 more people in Friday and Saturday Nights. One to just do hostess, phone orders and cashier. And 3 Waitresses. I hope he listens and takes advise because this place is a wonderful place to eat. Keep up the good work you guys are doing great. Besides the little hiccups like last night. read more

This is my first visit and I was pleasantly suprised at the quick and attentive wait staff as well as the roomy and open setting of the dining room. I like the dark wood and how the long bar was set up as you entered the room. I sat on the patio where I ordered the tri-tip sandwich with garlic fries. I also ordered the house blonde ale, which I was informed from the server that eel river brewery makes a special batch of blonde ale for the establishment. My garlic fries were crispy and delicious and covered in garlic and the tri tip was very delicious as well ( sidenote for texture people) if you prefer your tri-tip in slices or even small chunks, ask for it ahead, otherwise they shred it to bits. And for the chili lovers. Ask for tge tritip chilli extra hot. read more

Great BBQ. Both tri-tip and Pork. Place smells as good as it tastes. By far the best restaurant in Nice. And one of the best in Clearlake. Tiffany always takes great care of us. She always greets us with a happy smile and knows our order before we sit down. Try it, you'll like it. read more

Brittany was so sweet! Broccoli cheddar soup was awesome and so was the service. She made my day! My daughter loved her burger and my son loved his bacon mac and cheese. read more

It bothers me when restaurants still use styrofoam... don't order the BBQ chicken without first asking when was it made... they have an outside grill but I've never seen it used or warm to the touch.. maybe they use a different grill. The one time we did order the BBQ chicken, it arrived alone on a styrofoam plate. Very black & white image. No garnish, no side order. We returned it. Heard their microwave, received another black piece of chicken. We left read more

This place has solid cue. Friendly staff and rustic atmosphere. Its tough to find smoked brisket in NorCal- especially Lake County. Good brew selection too. Ask for their spicy bbq sauce read more

I was pleasantly surprised that Romi's had a decent breakfast. Service was fast and friendly, food was hot and tasty. The home potatoes were good, but if you don't like bell peppers you may want to let them know. I had the Farmers omelet, it was huge and had plenty of sausage in it. My hubby had the chicken fried steak and eggs, the gravy was good, steak tender. We will be back to try some other breakfast items. read more

This is a great place! View of lake and great service! My Aunt is pretty hard hearing and the server was amazing enough to make sure she was taken care of ... she took her time!!! The food was prepared perfectly!!! read more

This place is amazing! The food is incredible and the employees have always been very friendly and respectful. When you pull up you can smell the meat cooking and see an employee working the bbq pit. My partner and I come here regularly, and we always order to-go and pull across the road to the little abandoned Marina to eat (because we don't like to leave our dogs alone in the car), last time we went we ordered and were waiting in the car until it was ready to go back in and pick it up, but a kind female employee saw us sitting outside in our truck and brought our food out to us, which we thought was very sweet considering they looked like they were a bit busy. The prices are reasonable for the quality and quantity of food that you get. The chicken strips are golden and crispy, the mac and cheese is perfect, the brisket is tender and delicious, the pulled pork sandwich is amazing, and their house barbecue sauce is incredible. And don't forget about dessert because their peach cobbler is wonderful. A huge thanks to everyone who works here, keep up the good work! read more

Great little BBQ joint. It may not look like much from the outside, but there is more than meets the eye. Inside you will find a quaint little bar... I think it's more than just beer but idk I've only ordered beer or wine. They offer inside and outside seating, and you can usually find the tv's on whatever sport is in season. Romi's serves a variety of foods, but the BBQ it's amazing!! read more

We grab burgers from here all the time, good American food. The tri-tip salad is always a good choice. The waitresses are always sweet. Glad to have it in our community! read more

We are on vacation from Seattle, and are staying at Worldmark close by so we gave this place a shot. We ordered brisket and tri-tip which both were great with huge portions for the price. We ordered a few beers off the beer menu of 15+ different beers and plenty of micro brews. All in all 5 stars. I would encourage someone in the area or on a trip to the lake to check them out. Our waitress was also provided excellent service and she was happy to assist with anything we needed. read more

My husband liked it but I wasn't a fan. It was okay, nothing special and I wouldn't go back. Ribs were basic

Pulled Pork, Burger and Pork Ribs were good. Service was slow, but pleasant. Good beer and wine selection. Stay away from Mac and Cheese, was boxed with added pepper. Ridiculous! read more

The whole restaurant was complaining-1 waitress, 24 people-when we were there, needless to say the service was horrible, no coffee refills, no toast, just here's your food, here's the check. The food was just as bad-hash browns barely cooked and the omelette were way over cooked. The chicken fried steak was a quarter of what it usually is. It's all on the management - Fourth of July weekend and 1 waitress. It was all bad. read more

Bomb.com the tri tip nachos are definitely my favorite if you haven't tried them I suggest you do so
