A gem of a restaurant in Old City. Lovely ambiance, very cozy. Great service from professional staff. Delicious food. They have a separate vegetarian menu, which is basically a condensed version of the regular menu. The only veg exclusive dish is a risotto. We really liked the squash pasta, Caesar salad, and affogato. It costs about $100 for date night anywhere you go, so you might as well go someplace good. The only issue is that it’s not wheelchair accessible, which is a shame considering that this restaurant definitely caters to an older clientele. I saw some diners having trouble getting up the large spiral staircase.

There are so many great things I could say about this restaurant, although the food would definitely still be number 1. The ambience is so cool with the dining room being downstairs in the cellar. Our server was amazing, very friendly and thoughtful about our specific needs. And the food was incredible, especially the gnocchi. Be prepared to eat a lot if you're doing the three or four courses because they do not skimp on portions! All around I highly recommend this as a place for date night, celebrations, etc.

This was awesome! They did a wine tasting in their upstairs space with snacks, live music, and wine experts talking about what we were tasting. There was so much to choose from and I'll definitely go back for their next one. This was my first time there and the service, ambiance, and food/beverage options were very impressive.

An absolutely fantastic place to host a private event! The staff did an excellent job. They were personable, attentive, and flexible. We had a guided wine tasting and not only were the wines delicious, but the sommelier could really read a room and knew exactly when to interject in the conversation and when to hang back and let the room flow. I highly recommend them for any event!

I had an absolutely delightful experience at Bistro Romano! It's the perfect spot for a romantic date night. The food was truly amazing, from the delectable main courses to the mouthwatering desserts. The only minor hiccup was that our waitress seemed a bit slow in checking in on us for additional orders. Nonetheless, the ambiance, flavors, and overall experience made it a memorable evening. Highly recommend for a special night out!

Great food! The Gnocchi entree and the Squash Blossom appetizer is a must try. Believe me pls 👍🏻 Atmosphere wise, not my typical type of spot to dine in- a little too dark for me inside. We sat at the bar. Service was good but not the most friendly.

My girlfriend and I had a wonderful experience here. I’ve been coming to this restaurant for a few years now and by far, had the best service tonight. Our server, Kishor had wonderful suggestions based on our palette and had perfect timing with questions between courses. We didn’t feel rushed at all which is always appreciated with a later reservation. As always the ceasar salad was phenomenal, followed by the lobster ravioli which was perfect and not over seasoned. If you ever come here I highly suggest saving room for their desserts. Although the desserts are a little pricey it is highly worth it. I will definitely continue to frequent this restaurant and suggest it to anyone looking for amazing service and food….

A winner hands down whether it be for a date night, girls night or this time an Easter dinner. Introducing this spot to my family members for the first time was an absolute pleasure as they had only great things to say about the amazingly tender seafood and steak meals. I hands down recommend the risotto, steak, ravioli and the goat cheese appetizer. And I can't forget the service which is always on point. Thank you for a wonderful meal and experience as is your norm.

Bistro Romano is one of our favorite restaurants. It has excellent food and drinks, great staff and service many of whom know you by name, classic atmosphere with a large bar on the first floor and a large room with tables on the ground level. We always enjoy our meal at Bistro Romano. Certain nights of the week guests could enjoy live piano music as well as other regular events. It is a great place for a romantic meal or a large group celebration. Specials are always a great choice but the menu has a large selection of many different outstanding dishes. Dietary restrictions are well accommodated and the restaurant now has a special gluten free menu. Highly recommend.
