    Came here because it's legit maybe two blocks away from my place. Decided I would try out a drink as we sat by the bar. Please note they have a dress code any flip flop looking shoes are not allowed they made an exception this time around. Service was quick and our bartender was super friendly and gave suggestions. This is def on the higher end want to make sure you dress the part. For one drink I paid around 20 bucks which wasn't too bad didn't try the food so can't comment on that.

    Romo is a gem in Silk City. We had a 530pm reservation, arrived at 5pm and was still seated immediately. I recommend valet which is $10. If they have a self-park option, it's gotta be a long walk as I didn't see anything near the restaurant. Reception area is not large so it can get crowded if you are waiting. The restaurant is stunning. Vibrant, lively colors. Velvet banquettes & chairs. Huge display screens. There is a private room for larger parties and I believe there is back patio, but I never saw it as we were seated near the front door. Service was very welcoming and fast. Top tier even starting with valet. No complaints. They were also accommodating on meat substitutions with menu items. All of this with a jam packed restaurant. I was shocked at how busy they were at 5pm. Not an empty seat. I was suprised at how warm the temperature inside the restaurant was, but it was abnormally hot outside in this day so maybe their thermostats had not adjusted. The drinks were VERY impressive. The presentation was extravagant, but the taste is what amazed me. Felt like I was in the islands. The food also was a 10. Fusion cuisine, but heavily latin influenced and authentic flavors. I had the Burrata, sushi, fried rice and couple of sides. All delicious. This is a high end restaurant, it comes with the expected price tag. As stated, I was there at 5pm so I saw some kids. I believe a party vibe ensues the later it gets and a DJ plays. If I lived closer, I would absolutely return. Go try Romo asap.

    Came here to celebrate my friend's birthday at Room Restaurant--she's been wanting to try this place for the longest, so she was super excited! First off, the ambiance was beautiful--definitely a vibe--and the service was amazing from start to finish. The drinks were on point too, which always makes the experience even better. As for the food, the salmon I ordered was a bit bland, which was disappointing. However, my friend had the octopus and said it was the best she's ever had, so that was a highlight! Overall, I had a really good experience. I'd definitely come back and try something different on the menu.

    I had a great time at this location, it really surprised me how good the food and drinks were! My friend and I came to celebrate my birthday and had reservations for 4:30pm on Saturday 3/14. We arrived at 4:35pm and waited about 5 minutes before being seated. The area we were seated at was nice and intimate, however, it was a bit tight for my liking. Less than a foot of space in between tables making it hard to get in and out of the seat for everyone, esp someone like me with bigger thighs. I believe they need to work on that maybe put 2 tables of 4 and 1 table of 2 there vs 1 table of 4 and 3 tables of 2. Just a thought. Lighting and ambiance was excellent, so was the music. Not too loud. We ordered drinks my Romo pina colada was great and so was my friends henny colada it was a huge cup and cute with the smoke show presentation. My friend got the ropa vieja empanadas and i got the Salad and hers was excellent! Mine was good esp the dressing, highly recommend the ropa vieja empanadas. I got the salmon and she got the steak which were both great esp the yuca mash. Everything was seasoned very well and cooked fresh too. For dessert we both got the tres leches. I really enjoyed it. My friend felt they could do a bit more to celebrate birthdays make it a bit more lively but i was fine with it as i don't like too many bells and whistles. I love how they had someone dressed with the dj adoni head going around and he made sure to stop at multiple tables esp those celebrating. Bill was reasonably priced and service was good. They did forget my soda twice but other than that, everything came out at a reasonable time frame. Around 7pm we paid and got up and went to the bathroom which was really nice and clean. It's small in there but i was able to go into the larger private stall. There's a mirror outside the bathroom for pics and we retook some pics with the famous romo sofa. At this point, there was a person there making sure no one took too long taking pics which i was glad about because earlier some girls took very long. When we left it was closer to 7:30pm and there were at least 40 ppl waiting to be seated. Not sure if they had reservations or not, but it was insane. I would return and make sure i have a reservation around the same time 4:30-5pm on a Saturday. It was perfect. I heard the valet was $10 per car but we came in an uber and got picked up after so didn't deal with that. Def will return for a date night

    Overall an okay and over hyped experience. Ambiance is trendy with Latin music and cool drinks. Enjoyed the drinks and the presentation the most. While the waitress was super nice, they didn't follow up with water or offer any drinks before or after they cut the birthday cake so we had cake with no drinks and then felt rushed out. Food was okay wouldn't recommend shrimp mofongo as shrimp were over cooked. Reservation highly recommended especially if you want to be seated for dinner.

    We went to Romo tonight, and while the vibe has a lot of potential, the execution was messy from start to finish. First off, valet parking was a disaster, long lines with no rhyme or reason, and no clear system in place. Once inside, you're managed through multiple lines: a sub-entry, then another line overseen by a bouncer (who was nice, but there was zero structure), and then finally the hostess stand. Here's where it really made no sense: Our reservation was for 9:30 PM. We checked in at 9:27 PM and were told there would be a 25-minute wait. What's the point of a reservation if that's the case? Once seated, service was slow across the board--waiting for drinks, waiting for food, waiting in general. The food itself was decent and tasty, and the drinks were actually excellent. I'm not much of a drinker, but they were well-balanced, smooth, and flavorful (not overly strong, just done right). One big miss: I asked the waitress to sing Happy Birthday to my friend, and she completely forgot, then brought the bill instead. That was disappointing and took away from the celebration. Other issues: Bathrooms had very long lines Patio was freezing Overall flow felt chaotic That said, the vibe inside, with the dancers, music, and energy, was everything. That part, I absolutely loved. Romo clearly knows how to create atmosphere, but the logistics and service need serious improvement. Final take: Great vibe and drinks, decent food, but poor organization, slow service, and weak reservation management hold this place back. Prices are mixed, like dome things are reasonable and others not so much One more add on. I ordered the "medicina de amor" and my head was pounding the next day. I wonder if its premium liquor?

    My friend surprised me with brunch to celebrate my bday. We both love Adonis and his music so it was so cute for her to bring here. I was a bit thrown off by the location since it's kind of inside of a chipping center but parking was minimal. They offered valet parking for $10 so I grabbed that to avoid having my friend waiting longer for me. Upon walking in...beautiful and so spacious! Large open space as the main dining area. They had such pretty reddish booths also that stood out. The decor was very clean aesthetically, lots of greenery too which added a fresh touch. We waited about 10 minutes for our seats. The waitress was great. Attentive, friendly, gave us her recommendation on drinks which my friend too and ordered the Mamasota drink and I ordered a Lychee Martini. My drink was amazing.. I ended up having 3 more Food... bomb.. We started with the chicken empanadas and grilled octopus.. the. We had the " little bit of everything " sushi which was basically a combo of all the sushi's they iffer, that was a good choice and very tasty. We also shared the Romo Fongo that came with a garlic sauce..which was delicious. The manager JC came by to ask for our feedback. He was kind and friendly. My friend told him it was my birthday and he asked if we drink champagne before bring us a glass each. I thought tha was pretty considered to ask first before brining it over. After dinner my friend asked for a dessert with a candle for me... wow we got the tres leche pistachio coquito and it was delicious! Had an amazing time celebrating my birthday there and I look forward to coming back again and trying new dish.

    Lomo Saltado

    I had been to this establishment before this became Romo by DJ Adonis. I had pretty good expectations but this place did not disappoint. Ambiance and service were both amazing considering how busy it was on a Friday night. The food was very tasty and the menu had plenty of delicious options, anywhere from Empanadas to even Tomahawk Steak cut at Table-side. I was pleasantly surprised by the drinks, although a bit pricey they are so worth the experience and unique presentation. My food was very good, I got the Lomo Saltado and my friend got the Skirt steak with chimichurri. Both so yummy, will definitely be back for more.

    Made reservations months in advanced. Sat night 9 pm party of 4. took about 5 minutes to be seated. At first we were seated in a room outside the main restaurant area we asked to be moved and the hostess was nice enough to accommodate to a table near the bar. Once seated they ask for you to order everything since the kitchen gets backed up. We all enjoyed the vibe but agreed the music could have been a lot better. Not to mention the constant bday celebrations felt like we were hearing the same thing on repeat. The big adonis bob head and the dancers is cute gets the crowd going for a bit. The food was good. I had the Lomo which was a bit salty but it balanced out with the sweetens of the cocktails. The fun part about it all were the cocktails and how they are displayed. Overall it was a good experience, it's a place to celebrate, take pics, eat and exit. We all had a main course shared an app and two drinks each and we all paid less than $100 pp. The front is always packed with people waiting to be seated so you do feel the rush as your sitting to hurry along. The parking...is questionable. Not sure how or why they are charging $10 to park in an commercial area. The signs are also very confusing it doesn't say where the valet starts so if it's your first time here you are scrambling trying to figure out where to go. At the end I had to walk up my car as the guys were having trouble with my keys and it was literally parked outside of McDonalds.

    This is the old Mamajuana's Restaurant but on steroids. Totally revamped and fun filled. Valet is $10 and be sure to make a reservation. They do accept walk in's but you will have to wait for a table in the front area. Reservations get to hang by the bar until your table is ready. Now... let's talk about the drinks....they are AMAZING and not expensive at all. The cocktails come in amazing glasses and half of them have dry ice, the presentation is phenomenal. Now for the food.... It's pretty much the same menu as Mamajuana's had. But no complaints here. If you are balling on a budget, this is where you want to be. Oh and there's also entertainment. It's a very lively spot with music & hookah. This is a dress to empress restaurant with plenty of IG worthy posts. Perfect for date nights, birthday dinners or just hanging with the girls. Thank me later.

    Checking out the menu. So many things I want to try.

    This place is 100% vibes. The food is deliciously prepared and served with tons if Flair. Value for your money, I found the portions a tab bit small. The service was great, every drink, app and meal comes amazingly plated and with corresponding show. The stilts show and the DJ Adoni bar top show was a ton of fun. Everybody's gotta take a picture by the Romo couch or you haven't been here. Great place to have a great evening. Things to know. Make a reservation, the wait could reach 3 hours otherwise. Cash is king, extra 3% for card payments. Gratuity will be applied to the table. Make sure you go prepared.

    At the side they have this nice couch with romo sign to grab a quick flick.

    Ok so I'd start the review with the place was really nice, I like the vibe and the open layout of the restaurant. The staff was great and greeted us as soon as we walked in and asked if we had a reservation, we were seated in under 5 minutes it was early and we entered at 4 pm but it was somewhat full for being that early. We got to our table and the waitress was super friendly and helpful so much so we had a concern with the way the cups smelled as if they weren't clean enough and had a egg smell to them, again I didn't make a big fuss but surely made her aware of it and she came and swapped it out immediately. We continue to order our drinks and went for the big boy tomahawk steak, which came with 2 sides white rice and toastones. Considering the sides I will say they could be a bit more if you state the tomahawk on menu states for 2 but hey I'm not even mad the tomahawk made up for it in a big way. Well let's get to the overall appearance of the place and Resturants and other staff. The appearance very clean and staff dressed amazing with gloves on for handling food. A+ Restroom clean and easy to get too Food was really good and highly recommend. The overall bill wasn't bad for 2 and drinks and water came out to roughly $250 being $155 for the tomahawk. Note: the Parking situation was a bit odd because it's like your forced to park with valet as the plaza parking is designated spots for other businesses which you can get towed and no one would be responsible but I am glad the attendants did mention something so we parked further down the street as we weren't staying long. But parking is $10 which isn't bad for a birthday party and or a longer stay. Overall this place gets a 4 out of 5 as I didn't visit the hookah side and didn't drink enough to rate the drinks lol

We ask if they have outdoor seating and they tell us they do, then they proceed to seat us in an area with windows and ceiling! And right next to a large and very loud Bridal shower (that would have been nice to know, we would have asked to be seated as far away as humanly possible.) Then we sit for 30 solid minutes without a peep from ANYONE. Then suddenly a confused looking young lady steps up and informs us "no one told her we were here." Guess that's OUR problem? Placed a drink order and another 20 minutes passes when I am informed it is no longer on tap. Drinks finally arrive, the "Craftsman IPA" is flat and "off" tasting. White wine was warm as if it was sitting in the sun. Food was not much better sadly. The Calamari was flavorless and tough - apparently someone forgot the Asian drizzle that was supposed to go on it. It was also that "fake" calamari where every piece is exactly the same size and shape. The "stuffed" meatballs were stuffed - with air! Literally nothing but a hole in the middle. The artichoke and crab dip had a strong fishy taste, it was so bad I feared it was tainted. To their credit they took it off the bill, eventually. And from the moment our drinks arrived earlier,, our server never once checked back on us for another drink, do we need anything, how is everything etc. Hey Craftsman - do better! Maybe some training in the kitchen and out on the floor is in order.

    I came here for trivia night, and even though I am absolutely terrible at trivia (there's really no…read moredebate about that), I had such a great time. The event was well organized, moved at a good pace, and had a fun atmosphere without feeling chaotic or overwhelming. I love events like this because even if you're not good at trivia, you can still enjoy yourself and be part of the experience. The staff was great, and our waitress was especially friendly and attentive throughout the night. I also really liked the interior. The wood aesthetic gives the place a warm, cozy feel that makes you want to hang out for a while. I ordered the wings and fries. As someone who is extremely picky about both, I was pleasantly surprised. The fries were fantastic--crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside, and they tasted like they were cooked in fresh oil, which makes a huge difference to me. Honestly, they were some of the better fries I've had in a while. The wings had good flavor, although the chicken itself was a little dry. I'm usually a dry-rub kind of girl, but I do enjoy a good garlic parmesan wing every now and then. These were good, but not the best garlic parm wings I've ever had. I've definitely had better. That said, the seasoning was tasty, and I still enjoyed them overall. Between the friendly service, the comfortable atmosphere, and the fun trivia night, I'd definitely come back. Even if my trivia skills never improve, the experience alone is worth it.
