This was the best experience we have had so far at Trattoria Romana! We come here a few times a year from Chicago because we love the food so much. We were celebrating my husband's birthday and I was pleasantly surprised at how well they met all my requests. We sat at the bar and Michael was an excellent bartender. The eggplant pie is amazing as well as the complimentary bruschetta. They had a half chicken as a special and although it was more of an airline chicken than a real half chicken, it was still very good. The strawberry shortcake dessert was perfect! I usually have the pistachio tartufo but they were out of it so I'm glad I tried one of their most popular desserts. All the service and food were great. Thanks again to all the staff for making my husband's birthday celebration so wonderful.

My fiancé and I had such a lovely meal here. We enjoyed the meatball appetizer which was so flavorful! For entrees we got the Gnocchi and Linguine with clams. For dessert our server highly recommended the limoncello, which did not disappoint!

I haven’t been in years, but the restaurant is always busy so I assumed we would have a lovely meal and evening. The food was fair and I mean fair, but they server tried very hard to push us out. The food came very quickly and then he wanted us out. Very very disappointing.

our waiter was fabulous, food was fast!! I live out of town, but I had been going there for 25 years when I lived here. Food quality is excellent. I ordered the seafood salad, but it wasn’t the way they used to make it chopped up and delicious, but it was still good.

One of my favorite restaurants when we visit FL! The food is amazing and the service is always phenomenal! I do wish it wasn’t quite as loud and the tables weren’t so close together, but it won’t keep me from coming back and I’m sure everyone else that piles in there to enjoy the fabulous food!
