Roma Italian Restaurant — Restaurant in Clinton

We had the lobster ravioli, the sauce was delicious but the lobster filling was nonexistent. My husband had the Tour of Italy, the marinara sauce was good, for the chicken parm and the lasagna, but the Alfredo had no flavor. Unfortunately my daughter entire meal, chicken Genova, consisted of bland Alfredo sauce and chicken. She asked for it to be returned to the kitchen and get the lasagna instead after taking a couple of bites. The manager refused and said she ate over half the dish which was not true. To say the least we paid $22 for a meal that my daughter couldn’t eat, she left the restaurant hungry. Our waitress was not attentive, she was having conversations and folding silverware instead of periodically checking on us. We had to look for her a couple of times.

The quantity of food for the price was more than enough (I had lunch the next day). My husband advised that the dish that the lasagna was in was hotter than the food - hence the reason for 4 stars instead of 5 - but the taste (seasoning, etc.) was fine. We will go back. Nice to have a new restaurant in Clinton that's not Mexican. I hope Clintonians give Roma's enough patronage to keep them...
