ROMA!
by myohmygood at Citysearch
LOVE this little hole in the wall - YUMMY good. No better than that, PERFECTO! Seriously - i swear the chef jumped of the plane from Rome yesterday. The quality and flavor was the best i've had since i was in Rome.
GO!
- Pros: Perfect flavor - this is the real deal
- Cons: atmosphere is so so
Delicious Italian food, what more could you ask for?

My boyfriend and I went to Ristorante Roma tonight for dinner. We got there around 8 and were immediately seated. For appetizers we both had salads and the homemade minestrone soup. The soup was AWESOME! We could tell that it had been made fresh and was bursting with flavor. For dinner I ordered a simple penne with spicy tomato sauce and my boyfriend ordered the pesto with green beans and potatoes. Both were excellent.
This is our new favorite restaurant, and it is very reasonably priced as well. I also like the fact that it seems to be family owned. Before you spend your money at a mediocre chain Italian restaurant, try this place out. You won't regret it!
We'll be coming back very soon.
- Pros: Best Italian food I've ever had
- Cons: None!
Execution of Excellence
by Sophey at Citysearch
Ristorante Roma's is the top notch authentic Italian spot in Portland as far as we are concerned.
We had the most wonderful lunch here. My husband who travels extensively all over the world and loves
to try gourmet food. He was highly impressed with the authenticity, the attention to detail and overall execution was superb ! The chef's signature is not just excellence, but that he truly understands cooking is an art form .
- Pros: Cozy, local, easy parking in structure or on street
