I have been going to La Roma for over a year and a half. Beautiful restaurant, Amazing team of people working here from the front all the way to the back. I’m a regular who sits at the bar and just talks to the owner Chris who is the BEST cocktail maker in the business! La Roma is an amazing spot to take your partner, loved ones or even a cute dinner date with a group of friends

I cannot say enough good things about La Roma. The cocktails are beautifully crafted, the food is delicious and the service is excellent. This was my 6th time here, first time experiencing brunch! It never disappoints!

One of the best restaurants I’ve been too! So cute . Good for a date night , solo date or girls night . Local spot but a treasure! Everything an order was chef kiss ! The drinks were strong if you like that . I went during happy hour . 10-30 little pricey for happy hour but worth every penny! The service was good and bar tender was good also. This is a five star restaurant!

An undiscovered gem. Six adults all raved about their meals and appetizers. The Ragu Tagliatelle and skirt steak with Chimichurri were excellent. Mussels as an appetizer were also some of the best we have had. Go out of your way to enjoy this Port Richmond dinner spot. Happy Hour weekdays is to 7:00 with reduced appetizers and drinks.

Hidden gem evidently. Every dish we had was fantastic and the cocktails were spot on. Service was also superb. Visited on a Saturday night and it was fairly slow—this place should be the busiest in the area.

WOW. My wife and I just moved to Port Rich, I call it Port Rich and we’ve been here four days moving into our new house. Eighteen years in we still try to have date nights, tonight was our first date night in our new digs. Mimi and La Roma made our first night out here so special. Great food! Arancini is awesome. Lobster risotto, salmon, simply excellent. Fantastic margaritas. Service is stellar. Personal touches and genuine interest. And, an extra effort made on our behalf that made our night even more special. We are so proud to live here and this place will be so special to us. Thank you, Mimi and La Roma!
