Roma Restaurant — Restaurant in Town of Eastchester

Roma! Roma! What a wonderful family owned Italian Eatery! We’ve been here twice- first time on our own and the second with nine year old son. First time we went for a nice walk along the lake at Twin Lakes Park in Eastchester, NY and wanted to find a place to eat. Our criteria: someplace close-by, not too expensive yet with good food. A search on Four Square and we decided on Roma. Absolute best choice by a landslide! Exceeded our criteria and has become our favorite eatery when we’re in the area. They’re very close. The place has been owned and operated by generations of the same family dating back to the late thirties! Tell me- how often can a restaurant even boast about such an achievement these days? The interior is fairly large with a full service cocktail lounge near the front. And…shouldn’t a respectable Italian place be playing “Ol’ Blue Eyes” to just set the right ambiance? Well, if you’re answer is “Yes”, and it should be, then that’s another initial reason to like this place before even sitting down. If you don’t know who “Ol’ Blue Eyes” is then shame on you! Go add some class credo points and create a playlist of his music, or several. And, by the way that’s coming from a guy who grew up on 80’s-90’s music. First obvious clue to this being a good place is there are a lot of locals frequenting it - and different generations; families with children, younger and older couples as well as large groups celebrating someone, something or other. All good initial signs. Tables are far enough apart with several lining the windows and the lighting is just dim enough to create an individual sense of space at each table. Our server was a sweet helpful woman - friendly, funny, courteous, helpful and prompt. Great! You’re brought a basket of nicely warmed crusty Italian bread - and, as my son said from watching Disney’s “Ratatouille” - “Papa, I k now is going to be good because it has the right type of crunch sound when you break a piece off.” Smart boy; he’s right. And, of course butter to go with it. BTW, don’t be shy about asking for another basket because this is also the type of restaurant with the right answer to that “oh, sure, of course- right away.” None of that sniffy slight sneer look down your server’s nose at you as if you’re an uncouth barbarian. They have whatever you’re inclined to drink- different wines, beers or something from the bar. Moderately priced- so go ahead. BTW, at this point you’ll also notice that the servers have all worked here for sometime- another good sign. And they’re all friendly with one another and seem to know the guests by first name. Who doesn’t like any of that? You feel…that they feel…they like the place and like working there. Well, those are all signs that you’re going to have a good experience here; and you certainly will. They have a full Italian menu and if you just want pizza? Boy…do they HAVE pizza! Collectively, over two visits, we’ve had the following: specialty salad, chicken cacciatore, eggplant parm., a fish entree, different wines, homemade chicken soup, baked ziti and meatballs and, oh; apple juice for my little man. Entrees are large, enough so that almost everyone is seen leaving with a bag-to-go. You will leave Roma’s very sated and very pleased by the food’s amount and flavor. This is a mainstay classic neighborhood eatery with only the positive associations to that moniker. Go here, you’ll thank me I assure you. Bring your children, they’ll like it too. Because there are few places like this in today’s highly combustible cut-throat competitive make or break restaurant culture. We need a place that makes you feel GOOD…in your spirit, in your stomach and yes, in your wallet. Remember I said it’s family owned? For generations? Well, pssst., a little gem of a truth- their secret weapon towards making you feel at home and realizing you just ate at your next go to favorite place? One word; “Filly.” Who? What? “Filly”, like the cream cheese, she’ll be the first to say is one half of the Dynamic Duo couple who run and own the restaurant! Sadly I’ve run...

In October of 2023, I brought and treated my wife and myself for dinner at Roma to celebrate her birthday and we absolutely loved our time there!!!

We were warmly welcomed by the restaurant’s staff, and were quickly provided with a comfortable table. Our server, Anyelina did a great job on addressing our inquiries, providing great insight and recommendations on the menu options and perfectly documented our orders.

Both my wife & I found our appetizers and entrees to be outstanding!!! My wife ordered and enjoyed her steak based entree while I ordered and loved my lasagna!!! It was unquestionably well-cooked delightfully delicious!!!

When dining at Roma, my wife and I were fortunate enough to meet with the spouse of the owner of Roma. She was an absolute sweetheart, made us feel right at home and always checked in on us to see if we were having a great time. Moreover, she provided us with a delicious complementary desert and sang a lovely rendition of Happy Birthday for my wife!!!

Both my wife and I thank Roma for providing us with an exceptional dining experience and one that we’ll always cherish. We recommend for everyone to visit and dine at this wonderful...

PLEASE READ BEFORE DINING HERE!!! This restaurant is discriminatory against disabled people. If I could give this place negative stars I would. The owner is extremely unprofessional and rude. My 21 year old cousin and friend who are both autistic, came to this restaurant on February 15, 2024 and were accompanied by 2 adults. My cousin and her friend wanted to sit by themselves at a separate table from their parents. The owner immediately put a stop to this by telling my cousin and her friend they cannot sit there because they “needed” the table. That was far from the truth because the restaurant was almost completely empty, and they had other tables set up.The owner then proceeded to tell my cousin and her friend if they didn’t sit with their parents they would be forced to leave which they did. When the owner was confronted by my cousins father, the owner was extremely nasty, disrespectful and took no responsibility for his behavior or actions. Bottom line is this restaurant is discriminatory against disabled people. My cousin was a paying customers who was asked to leave because her and her friend have autism. Please think twice before giving them...
