The Roma is a throwback, classic American Italian restaurant located in the heart of the West End on Congress St, that pays tribute to the great American Italian restaurants of decades past.

Uno draws its identity and inspiration from the artisan heritage of the original Pizzeria Uno in Chicago, IL. Each restaurant still makes their Deep Dish Pizza dough fresh every morning. Our Chicago Thin Crust Pizzas are jam-packed with bold flavors. And our new Detroit Style Pizza, with its square shape, crunchy and crispy cheese-baked edge and light and airy crust, is a new favorite among our guests. We offer pizzas that are perfect for all meat-lovers, vegans, and gluten-free guests alike!Today, we are as passionate about craft beer as we are our pizza. We work with quality brewers to bring you a selection of some of the best national, regional and local craft beers. Nothing goes better together than pizza and beer!Our menu also features UNO favorites like the Shrimp & Crab Dip and Rattlesnake Pasta as well as a variety of other apps and pastas, salads, burgers and sandwiches, and entrees.

    We recommend the sage focaccia with prosciutto & the creamiest buratta cheese, & obviously the pillow pasta with the most delicious pesto.

    We a had a wonderful dinner before attending a show. Our waiter Sean was attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. Everything was delicious from our antipasto platter, cocktails, pasta dishes and crème brûlée with biscotti. I had the pasta with mushrooms and I would definitely order it again. Homemade biscotti was to die for! Looking forward to returning.

    We were a group of seven. Roma was open on Sunday which was the only day we could all be together. The ambiance was excellent and everyone complimented the chef on the excellent food when he came to the table. The staff was more than courteous. Our waiter recommended a flight of desserts since there were so many of us. It worked out perfectly. We will definitely return the next time we're in Portland.
