I have been going to the Roma for 52 years. There is nowhere that serves the veal like the Roma. We live out of town now but return and the Roma is a must. The back room was always for the "family", cigars and all. The stories are all true. Love the ambiance. Jack from Cincinnati.

Old and Overrated – I've been to Roma Cafe a few times and have been disappointed each occasion. I've read the other reviews and have to agree that I think the experience is directly related to who you know and how well the staff knows you.

The food is simple but did not impress me as having the homemade, fresh ingredients as promised. This place is old, stodgy and severely overrated. I'd go to Assa... read more

If you are not a regular – I know a lot of people who frequent this establishment who rate it as one of the best italian restaurants that they go to. I have to say that these people do have good taste but I have to say my experience there seriously fell short. My girlfriend and I got seated in a cramped corner next to a big party of people who occupied the attention of our tuxedo clad waiter the whole night. THE GOOD: Old world atmosphere. The bartender was amiable and made a good bloody mary. There were a lot of people ther... read more

Best restaurant in Detroit – I have been coming here for years, as well as my parents before me, as well as my grandparents before my parents.. Jan, the owner, and Dan, the host, are two of the most gracious and polite people you could ever meet. They have a superb way of running a restaurant and interacting with patrons. Yes, Roma is old, and yes, it is somewhat cramped, but that doesn't count much, what does is the service and food. In 30+ years I have never had a bad meal. Not once! I have never been disatisfied in any wa... read more

Best Italian food Downtown since Lelli's on Woodward closed. – I've only had GREAT food and GOOD service here. MONDAY ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT BUFFET is absolutely the FINEST Italian food you can find anywhere (better than NYC!) and reasonably priced, too.
