Roma Italian Restaurant

I called the establishment around 1PM as I reviewed their menu online and didn’t see any gluten free options for pasta or pizza. I spoke with, whom I’m assuming was the hostess, and they provided that they have GF pasta options and that any sauce could be used with the GF pasta. We drove 45 minutes after work on a Friday to eat here as we were also going to make a night of it and go to the Bally Casino in the area. The waitress also advised that they had a GF pasta option when I ordered and then came back out apologized and said they actually have no GF pasta option besides steak, crab cakes, and another veal option. I was extremely disappointed as we weren’t looking to spend an enormous amount of money but they were running a special on a surf and turf. I was like great I’ll do that. The other couple we were with ordered tomato bisque as their menu stated “Tomato and Crab Bisque.” Well it came out and the crab was in the tomato bisque which was misleading from the menu. It should have read “TOMATO CRAB BISQUE.” They had to send the soup back as she had a crab allergy. Fortunately, the manager comped the bill after bringing out the menu to refute that the menu was misleading. At the end of the day we spent over $125 on a meal that we weren’t completely satisfied with and didn’t travel 45 minutes to get a steak that we could have gotten at Texas Roadhouse. The only good thing about the meal was the company and the mashed potatoes. So if you’re in the area get a side of mashed potatoes to go. However, we will probably opt for the Green Turtle down the street.

I love this place! I am celiac and we went for a large happy hour with heavy snacks. They had options I could eat, including the crab cakes! Great job, Roma!
