    Wonderful dinner at Roma's! It's really close to Fort Lee Army Base. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND the Linguini Carbonara! It is truly fantastic! 👏 The server was quite patient with my group of 7. She even took the time to box up our food for us so we could continue our conversations. Excellent work Roma's!!

    Great people! Family owned so they make you feel like you're part of it! Took pictures this time... Johnny and his family (extended family included aka...staff) are absolutely the best!!! All the food is phenomenal.. .my favorite is the Pork Chop...Tender, Juicy, and prepared perfectly every time! I have dined in restaurants all over the world and this is second on none!!! I think they deserve the Michelin Star Award! ⭐ Update New Favorite...Grilled Salmon, Brussel Sprouts with Bacon and Balsamic Glaze!!! Prepared and plated perfectly!!! Second to none!!!

    Cheese pizza was great. Cheesy. Clean establishment. Well groomed staff. Not much parking. Plenty of inside seating. Not really handicap accessible.

    We had a group lunch for our colleague, who is departing. But the food was excellent, as usual... as my other colleague stated, "I've never had a bad meal here". I concur as evidenced by my empty plate of the artist formerly known as Chicken Caesar salad. And the cheesecake is the real deal. Great service too. Highly recommended!

    I can’t speak on the restaurant as a whole because I ordered take out. I got chicken piccata, which is a pretty easy dish. But the food I received was basically some soggy chicken, that truthfully tasted like a tv dinner, and spaghetti with lemons and capers on it. No type of sauce. Just lemon juice and pasta water. The salad I received was brown, and I also ordered a peanut butter cup pie. Which I was hoping would out do the rest of my meal.. no go. It tasted like plain cream with peanut butter and chocolate on top. I’m not one to give negative reviews, because I understand bad days happen.. but this was such a let down. Mind you, I spent $30+ on this meal. Maybe one day I’ll try again and my mind can be changed, but not today.

    Excellent food!! Try the Italian Delight...amazing flavor and be sure to save the leftovers. Yes. There will be leftovers! Salads were fresh. Wonderful atmosphere and the service is beyond excellent. I love the new building. It's quaint, cozy...not too close to other diners. The music is awesome. Wonderful. Really!

    I’m so glad we stopped here along our road trip. We travel a lot, and we all said this was one of the best restaurant stops! The service was excellent, James was so kind and helpful. He even spelled out the option for “desserts” in front of my little kids, which any mother knows is huge! He totally helped me avoid a meltdown since it wasn’t a night they needed more sugar. I loved my Greek pizza. They even had the option for a cauliflower crust which was so crispy and flavorful. The tomatoes were so fresh. My husband loved the veal and my kids ate up all their chicken and fries (very fresh)! Very reasonable prices too. We will be back on our next trip going south!

    We ordered a pizza to go. Nice size with ample toppings and the crust was nice. It had very little sauce so it had little taste except for the toppings. Most real Italian eateries the sauce has real garlic and a lot of herbs. We won’t order again.

    Stopped here when traveling on a road trip to get some dinner. This place has a great atmosphere, and the service from Kat the waitress was beyond amazing. The food was pretty good as well. I was surprised at how good the pizza was. If I'm ever in the area, I wouldn't mind stopping by again. I recommend this place for Italian food.

    Wonderful restaurant ! We were passing through Petersburg on our way to New York. We were tired and hungry. I asked the owners if he sold slices and he replied no but, promised to get us in and out quickly. We decided to stay and we’re so glad we did. We had a delicious chicken sandwich, salad and very good French fries. The owner was true to his word and got our food out quickly. So glad we stopped ! Lovely atmosphere, great service and very good food

    Family owned, and wonderful staff with phenomenal food make this place a regular stop for us. I usually get the pork chop as it's perfectly portioned snd always tender, and I enjoy their pastas, but I like sauce so I always ask for extra with just about anything, and they always cater to my little requests, so it's much appreciated. Their pizzas are also good. Used to get their special and took it to my job all the time for my crew when I worked in the area.

    I can always count on Roma's for lunch or dinner without disappointments. Johnnie and his staff are top shelf and never fail to meet my expectations. Highly Recommended!

    The pizza here is great and it's so easy to call ahead and place your order. The waitstaff is friendly and attentive, and they always get my order correct. The quality of the food is consistent and the atmosphere inside is very relaxed. You typically don't have to wait long to be seated, and there's a variety of tables for all different party sizes. This is a great local spot to choose if you're passing through or if you live around the area, though parking is a bit tight if you have a larger-sized vehicle, and leaving the restaurant to get back on the busy highway can sometimes be a bit frustrating, but the visit is definitely worth it.

    This is my honest experience. I went here with my 6 year old grandson. He is Autistic. We ordered an got our food. We started eating and very soon after he had to go to the bathroom. Business was taken care of and we returned to our table. Our coats and things were in the booth. I was very shocked because one of their employees had come by and took our food and threw it in the trash. My Grandson started crying and having a meltdown because he was hungry. It was a short period before the waitress came out. I asked what happened to our food and was informed as to what happened. Naturally I was highly upset and his crying didn’t help. I asked for the manager and asked her what she would do if this was her. She said I would be mad too. She said we could make it over. I asked for a couple minutes to think it over. It was after 8 pm and getting late. I had also ordered some food to take home. Good thing it wasn’t sitting on the table. I made them take the thrown away food off the bill. They didn’t even compensate for the inconvenience whatsoever. They are Greedy, Don’t Care About You, and Totally Unprofessional. My Grandson and I left this place hungry and Disappointed. Naturally I Don’t Recommend Dining in Such an Unpleasant and Unprofessional Place.

    Only came in for lunch, so I can't speak for the dinner service. I had the seared tuna salad. I was a bit disappointed. It was just a regular dinner salad (with very little added to it) with some seared tuna on top. No special dressing. No complimentary toppings. Just a bland dinner salad with your choice of regular dressing offerings. Oh, and some decent seared tuna on top.

    Went for lunch with a group of 16 and the server was amazing. He kept the drinks full, got all the orders right, and was great overall. The food though was not good. The lobster ravioli seemed mid-grade store bought for $20. If it wasn’t for such a great server this would be a 1 star review. He was so good I’ll say try something other than the ravioli and give it 3.

    This place is absolutely amazing. The food, the staff, and the atmosphere was amazing. WE were traveling from GA to Petersburg VA and were carried here by some family members and it was well worth the drive. I look forward to the next time I can visit Roma's

  • 5/5 Cyrous B. 11 months ago on Google
    This place is AWESOME!!! The food was spectacular (I had Chicken Alfredo and it was delicious). The atmosphere was really nice. And our waiter was one of the best I've ever had. I cannot remember his name, but he had a ponytail........anyways, he was FANTASTIC. Highly recommend this place.

    This establishment is wonderful. From the time we walked in, the vibes were great, food was outstanding. The bathroom was done in all black very elegant. Awesome job Brandy and to all the staff. Thank you for a very clean environment We will be back soon

    Perfect place to eat Italian food. Good portion sizes, absolutely loved the chicken carbonara!carbonate! Spaghetti sauce is good, penna vodka sauce is good

  • 5/5 Victor 1 year ago on Google
    Came in, was swiftly seated, and service was very pleasant with James. He was very socialable and helped me pick some good food choices, the fried pickles I came for were very zingy and a mouth-watering perfect crunch with the ranch. The pepperoni pizza had an amazing cheese pull, 10/10 in my op. The flavors of the sauce were strongly present, and the moz cheese complimented nicely and the crust had a perfect crunch. The cake I was recommend by was James was exquisite, out of this world even. Roma's is worth the stop to eat for sure.

    Googled a place for me and my family to eat and so glad I came across this restaurant!!! Great food and the steak was amazing. Bread is freshly made and drinks are on point. You’ve gotta try this place because it doesn’t disappoint

  • 5/5 Seth R. 1 year ago on Google
    I wish I remembered the waitresses name. She was very helpful for us being first timers and she was very nice. We got the bruschetta and Italian bead with cheese for starters both were fresh and flavorful. My kids and I got the spaghetti begging pasta night (Wednesdays) which was great! The tomato sauce was simple and fresh. Will definitely be back soon

    Went for my retirement during a lunch rush and they were on point. Worst part was trying to choose off such a great menu. Went with chicken carbonara, definitely not disappointed.

  • 3/5 David W. 1 year ago on Google
    The environment and customer service is great but the food is nothing special. I ordered the Veal Piccata, a "Roma's Favorite" and it was soggy and bland not to mention paired with spaghetti noodles in a lemon sauce that tasted like water.

  • 4/5 Matt W. 2 years ago on Google
    The place does not look like how the outside would suggest. Extremely classy inside. Very nice. Great food and staff. Prices are great considering how beautiful it is inside.

  • 5/5 Carolyn b. 2 years ago on Google
    The customer service is Superb. The owner helps out like his staff...I love the team work and the high quality food. Also it truly is multicultural...everyone gets the same superb service. I sat back and observed this with my own two eyes and ears . There's heart here.

    I've been there a few times before and they've always had great food. Today I was just there for lunch and order the Roma Special Steak, which is basically like a Philly Cheesesteak. I requested cheddar cheese in addition to the provolone and to add mayo to the bread as well, and it was fantastic. They did a great job with lovely toasted Italian bread as the foundation. This one's a winner.

  • 5/5 Amanda B. 2 years ago on Google
    We were welcomed when we walked in the door. The server was great, not only with us but with our kiddos as well. The food came quick and was delicious! We were pleasantly surprised at the price. Can't wait to visit again!
