    Had an appointment near by. I was looking for a place to grab a quick bite for breakfast. They did not disappoint! Had the Blueberry pancake (only 1 required) since it was the size of the plate. Will definitely be back!!!

    I went here and ordered two sandwiches, a hotdog and chili. The woman behind the counter told me it would be 25 minutes. Fifty minutes went by when I asked for my money back. The woman said no- but-they had some of my food ready. I wasn’t about to make a scene so I took what I was handed and left. Inside were some burned pancakes and a sandwich. Nothing else. Yes everywhere is understaffed and busy. However in that 50 min wait, I watched one of the cooks make herself a sandwich and eat it in front of me and my child. How else should I feel?

    Came here with a friend for breakfast for the first time. The blueberry pancakes were delicious and made fresh blueberries. The sunny side up eggs still had runny white part and the carmel latte tasted like gas station coffee-really disappointed with that. This cafe was a one time try for me.

    Been eyeing this little cute cafe and decided to try it out today! Beautiful weather so we ate outside. Food was made fast and fresh. Prices are very good. Loved the BLT - made perfectly. The half and half was very refreshing and not a lot of sugar (which I prefer) Would definitely come back and I'm looking forward to trying their other menu items!

    I really enjoy this cafe. I am a big fan of the cream of crab soup. Strangely enough, I typically order soup and coffee and this works for me 🌟

    One of the best turkey club sandwiches I've ever had and certainly the best at this price point! I also loved the option to order a chicken cheesesteak, which is unusual, but very good. The chips and pickle that came with each sandwich were also better than usual. Coffee could be better. In summary, this unassuming cafe can make some really delicious meals at a very reasonable price, and service is fast even when crowded.

    Cafe di Roma is absolutely one of Catonsville’s hidden gems. They have simply made food that tastes great and isn’t hard on the wallet. Everything is made fresh daily and to order. Went to breakfast here on Father’s Day and had the French Toast and a side of hash browns. Both delicious and the hash browns were cooked perfectly. Want to keep this place a hidden gem but it’s too good not to share.

    Went here 2 or 3 times between yesterday and today. Both breakfast and lunch/dinner are AMAZING. Everything that me and my fiance have had so far has been so good. Don't know why we've waited so long to try this place out. Highly recommend!

    I love this place! It is so adorable. It's somehow combined a coffee shop with an old timey diner. Super tiny but somehow a decent amount of indoor and outdoor seating seating (especially for two people), great, reasonably-priced food, good coffee, and a very nice breakfast selection. I definitely plan to come back!

    You know what, Roma is habit forming. I come here at least 3 times a week from work and I love the menu, ESPECIALLY the shrimp salad sandwich! Great ingredients, great value and the staff is wonderful! Don't forget the coffee cake!!!

    Delicious hometown diner! Generous portions, offering a breakfast and lunch menu. Always open whenever I think of them! Great for a quick grab on your way to work, call in an order for a group or dine in for free wifi! Always busy, I’ve taken my food to go. Fresh, MD authentic cooking, quick & friendly service. I love their homemade crab soups, 1/2 & 1/2 is the way to go!

    I love supporting small businesses and thought this little cafe seemed worth the trip. The space is small and cramped but from the moment we walked in we got a “you’re not from around these parts” vibe. The man who took our order was very unfriendly. When asked what was in the chicken salad, he said, “Chicken.” Maybe he was joking but I had to pry more details out of him. I ended up getting the egg salad sandwich. They put it on the wrong bread (not a big deal) but the portion was very generous. It just didn’t have much flavor. Their drink selection was very limited and when I grabbed the last Diet Coke I asked if they had any more. I was told they might have some in the back but it wouldn’t be cold. Not terribly helpful. Finally, the eating area felt dirty. While the tables were clean, the area felt cluttered while we sat and ate next to a basket of cleaners. Not terribly appetizing. I could forgive all of the above if the service had been warm and welcoming. Since it wasn’t, I won’t be back. I wish businesses still cared about your business!

    This is another hidden gem in Catonsville. The best shrimp salad I have ever had. We also enjoy the cheesesteaks, chicken salad, and Maryland crab soup - can even get it half cream of crab and half Maryland! The the staff members are very kind and helpful.

    Tucked away, this gem is often overlooked. But it should be the first choice for a great location for coffee and a terrific selection of foods for lunch. Everything is fresh and abundant. It's a really great place to enjoy lunch.

  • 5/5 Amanda S. 4 months ago on Google • 6 reviews
    Love this cafe. Very lowkey neighborhood vibe, with many patrons who have come here for years. Self serve Coffee is always fresh with free refills. Breakfast choices are always good, and all food is made to order. Their homemade soups are DELICIOUS!!

  • 3/5 Melissa C. 5 months ago on Google
    The cafe itself is very nice and they have excellent food. I recommend any of their sandwiches and their brunch menu is great. However, the employees are always rude and condescending. It seems to be due to an understaffing issue but they consistently act inconvenienced when they have customers. I’ve experienced this over the phone and dining in. It is off putting and unwelcoming. I keep hoping for a better experience but am met with the same thing.

    I literally just left and i refuse ro drive back but my sandwich was smothered in mayo. I cant eat mayo. So $11 down the drain thank you.

  • 1/5 Nikea D. 11 months ago on Google
    I came across this deli on Google Maps, so I decided to give it a try. My first time here will be my last, although the cashier was pleasant, the food was not. I ordered the Reuben sandwiches and all three of them were burnt and over sauced with thousand island dressing. You could not taste anything else but the dressing. I didn’t not know at the time that the cashier was also the cook, which made a huge difference in how my food was prepared. She was inexperienced in cooking these sandwiches by letting them burn. This experience has left a bad taste to say the least in my mouth. I’m sure that this little cafe is great but unfortunately I will not be returning.

    This càfe is Awesome ! It has a chillax environment with an assortment of breakfast and lunch menu items. Staffs at Caffè Di Roma are super friendly. I ordered the pancake and the cinnamon French toast for breakfast which was enough for two people. I also recommend their Latte as well. Slightly sweet but not too sweet for anyone who is a diabetic. This Càfe is also dog friendly with dog treats made available inside. There is also family owned ice-cream parlor two shops down. If it’s not breakfast or lunch, there is always ice cream.

    Great stop today for breakfast, good food and quick service. Sat outside and enjoyed our meal. Definitely worth a visit.

  • 5/5 Sammi T. 11 months ago on Google
    Love comin here i always get the Iced Chai Tea Latte with an Espresso shot and one of the Black Bottom muffins. It hots the spot. The parking is a little weird but that's not their fault. Definitely worth it i come here with my friend whenever i can.

  • 5/5 Nicholas Z. 4 years ago on Google
    A wonderful neighborhood cafe. Yummy sandwiches, coffee, and ice cream. There is a variety of blends/roasts of coffee, plus iced coffee, espresso, and tea. The sandwiches are very yummy, and promptly prepared to order. Must have heard a dozen orders of the shrimp salad sandwich go out of the kitchen in less than an hour. I’ve water available on the bar for filling your bottles on the go.

    Staff always polite and friendly. I love to see the young people with such great manners and professionalism hear. I hope y'all have a great year advancing in knowledge and all your choosing to do. This place is a staple in my seafood comfort food zone. They have some of theee best shrimp salad in Baltimore. As well as salad and crab cakes. I bring my kids and grandkids here for lunch every now and then as a special treat. It's very cozy and reasonably priced. I love y'all

  • 3/5 Velina Robinson G. 1 year ago on Google
    I had breakfast here and the food was promptly delivered and it was oh so good. Last night I went to pick up dinner and we waited over a half an hour for two sandwiches. The food was excellent but the wait was too long considering there was no line when we arrived! Always call in your order as they will prepare call in orders before those that order upon their arrival.

    The food really wasn't bad. I didn't have enough cheese on my tuna melt though. That's the purpose of a tuna melt is to have a lot of cheese and it didn't have a lot of cheese. The place needs to be remodeled and cleaned thoroughly. I saw some dust and some like dog hairs on the bottom of the chairs in there. I also had to remind the guy that was prepping food to change his gloves because he was dealing with money and packing bags and then turn around and prepare more food. The only best part was the spicy Thai tea

    Thier shrimp salad is out of this world. Absolutely no skimping on the amount of shrimp salad they put on your sandwich its enough to make two sandwiches. I have been there quite a few times and it never changes always the same which I think is a very good thing this is just half of the sandwich cant go wrong

  • 5/5 Babes M. 2 months ago on Google • 1 review New
    You cannot go wrong with the soup or sandwiches at this little cafe. It’s all homemade and delicious . They still give very generous portions, even in this economy. I highly recommend a visit.
