    Bad Roman was lively, festive and so much fun! I love the decor and find it inspires a good time with its whimsy. Our food was delicious… garlic babka, crispy calamari, Caesar salad and three types of pasta were all wonderful. Our server was terrific. All around great time!

    The restaurant looks amazing and is very clean. The staff were friendly and helpful as you’d expect. However the food had lots of room for improvement. For example the pasta was hard and the bread that came with my wife’s entree was burnt. I give our waiter credit for correcting the problem by giving us new bread that wasn’t burnt. The lobster tail my wife had seemed okay. However my kids’ shrimp pasta was pretty oily. The appetizers we ordered, bread, and crab Luigi were also okay. My family was disappointed and I just felt we didn’t get the value for our meal for that price point.

    Great service and food. However, it was like eating at a Chuck E Cheese with the amount of children legitimately running around the restaurant and around the tables. I wasn't aware this was a popular family restaurant or that they must offer a kids menu with the huge amount of screaming children in here. Thought it was more of an upscale adult restaurant. It is not.

    What an indulgent meal and fun experience! We had been wanting to try Bad Roman for awhile but the reservations are always full. We finally got lucky! The space is really beautiful and cozy, it feels special. It never got too loud even though it was quite full. Our server was friendly and never far away if we needed anything. Food and drinks arrived quickly and everything was delicious. We loved the shared pasta and the frozen tiramisu especially. Others have wonderful pictures and descriptions of the food, everything was delicious. Best we've ever had? No. But this place is an experience. Some of the dishes are overpriced but you're in Columbus Circle so it goes with the territory. Go have fun and don't worry what the check reads.

    It took me 3 months to get a reservation at this restaurant. To say it was the most underwhelming food experience of my life would be an understatement. The fact that the tomato and stracciatella was the best thing on the menu was extremely sad since the only two components in that dish are supplied by vendors and requires minimal effort for assembly. Took 35 minutes to order a drink not to mention food. Bad Roman’s PR team deserves a raise. Overpriced, underwhelming, overrated. I said what I said. NEVER going back!
