Our go to in the neighborhood. There are lots of good options around, but Romans remains consistent in the quality of the food and the staff is also wonderful. You can squeeze in at the bar during the week easily, and you can put your name in and come back on the weekend. We always get the fava bean puree, and mix up a pasta with some salads. Honestly can't go wrong.

We had a lovely, late-night (9:30) meal at Roman's last night. Had planned to go to Sailor, but they didn't have room for us, so we ducked across the street. I had been to Roman's once before and hadn't been wowed, but last night was fantastic. Started with the daily sour cocktail, which was a rye concoction - very well-balanced and delicious. The olives were plentiful and flavorful, and the bread, which came unadorned and unaccompanied, was divine. I can also recommend both the chicken and the orecchiette with pork sausage - we sopped up every drop of the sauce from the latter with the aforementioned bread. Service was professional and outstanding. Great spot for a date or intimate catch-up with one or two friends.

Nice Ambiance , not to loud but calm. Also nice eye contact with the bartender by myself. And , they make and also drinks and conversation but nothing but interesting nonetheless . I wasn't mad at the conversation. I honestly like the conversation. In fact , I will give it a 5 stars . Because a good vibes and the conversation was there pleasurable.

a lovely dinner on a rainy day in BK! the restaurant was decently packed when we got there for an early dinner. the place had a nice ambiance too. we started with a Daily Sour and a glass of red. we got the following to try: -arancini verde: piping hot, crunchy on the outside, and cheesy/melty on the inside. a great start to our meal! -paccheri with squid, chickpeas, and peppers: al dente pasta with squid, chickpeas, and peppers in a slightly tangy sauce. it seemed like an unlikely pairing but everything fits. -chicken diavolo: huuuuuuge half chicken, served with roasted potatoes and broccolini. it was juicy and perfectly seasoned. the chicken is bone-in tho, something worth noting. service was attentive but not intrusive. a pretty solid meal in BK.

This is one of my favourite places in Brooklyn! The fava bean purée makes me so happy with the bread. The pasta I had was to die for. Their desserts are super delicious and high quality. I can't wait to go back to the east coast for this place.

Had an incredibly special birthday dinner here. The pasta was some of the best I've ever had in BK. The staff was incredibly kind. The ambiance was romantic, the tables arent too close together. The space is very cozy, even in the warmer months. Food 5/5 Ambience 5/5 Service 5/5 Lives up to the hype, can't wait to go back!

Party of 4 for a Birthday celebration. It could not have been more perfect. Our server was absolutely outstanding. Attentive without being intrusive. Knowledgeable about the menu and happy to share her knowledge and make recommendations. Took great care helping us with a wine selection. So hospitable and warm. Now for the food. Our order was for the table, we shared everything. First Bibb salad with green goddess dressing. Fresh and well balanced. Whipped ricotta with asparagus. Delish. Chicken liver pate. Second-Ravioli's and Spaghetti Primi-Flank steak and Chicken Diavolo. The ambiance is Brooklyn It was a special dinner made extraordinary by a talented chef and fabulous service.

This would be a 5-star review if not for the inedible vinegary panna cotta we were served for dessert after an otherwise impeccable meal. Needless to say, I'd advise on finishing your meal here with just an Amaro, or satisfying your sweet tooth with Ben and Jerry's at home. But as to what I love here, I'm not sure where to begin. The fava bean puree, served with what I believe to be swiss chard, is subtle yet flavorful, perfectly silky, and overall one of the few standout mezzes I've eaten in a borough under a siege of unmemorable labne. The honeynut squash punched with complex flavor from pecorino, catching offguard my modest expectations of an often bland vegetable. For pastas, the tagliatelle was perfectly al-dente, and had a smoky, meaty flavor (read that with a grain of salt coming from a vegetarian) that immensely pleased the palate. And of course the cocktails here are the real star of the show, I thoroughly enjoyed my bitter of the day.

Service is outstanding as always. All servers and managers and bartender are friendly and helpful. Let's go backwards: panna cotta and espresso were delicious. Fruit puree underneath was especially good. Steak was perfectly cooked. Black Sea bass was wonderful and would have been better deboned but we managed. Lamb ragu seasoned well and great consistency of pasta. Wine list is amazing if pricey lol Cocktails always good and made by experienced staff. I love the ambiance and would definitely come back.
