Trattoria Roma

Great valentines dinner last night. I’m celiac and they had A LOT of options. We started with the calamari app- they were able to make half of it gluten free (pan seared) and the other other half normal (breaded and fried) for my boyfriend. It was delicious. We shared some lobster bisque- gluten free and DELICIOUS! My only critique on it would be that a little more lobster meat would have elevated it, but the flavor was on point. I had the gluten free veal saltimbocca, boyfriend had the crab ravioli special and we finished off with butterscotch crème brûlée for dessert. Everything was delicious and Michele, our server, was very helpful and knowledgeable with great suggestions. Random tid bit- It was quite warm in there, so I would not wear a thick sweater if you heat up easily like I do.

Service was great. Very attentive and personable. I ordered a rolled pasta dish with ricotta and spinach which was amazing! My husband got the Taste of Italy and was a bit less impressed. Lasagna is the key to his heart and he found it dry and very small portion. Affogato and cannot for dessert were spot on.

This is a lovely Italian restaurant. The dining room was decent with a great bar. Their entrees looked pretty. I ordered the taste of Italy serving with lasagna, eggplant Parmesan, and Alfredo angle hair. The food came out a little slowly but free rolls were served. Their soft rolls were wonderful with decent cream. The white sauce pasta was authentic and the red sauce was a little sour, but I could feel the abundant flavor of tomatoes. However, the eggplant was too raw and hard. I hope they would make it better. WiFi and Apple Pay were not available.

Cozy Elegance & Delicious Flavors ! We dined at this hidden gem, and it was an experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was very cozy, laid-back, yet elegant with soft lighting, warm decor, and just the right level of background chatter and music to make it feel lively but intimate. It was the perfect balance between upscale and relaxed, making it ideal for both date nights and casual gatherings. Our server was an absolute delight, thorough, attentive, and full of fun spirit. She took the time to explain the menu in detail, offered fantastic recommendations, and had such a warm, welcoming personality that by the end of the meal, we felt like old friends. Her energy truly elevated the whole experience! Now, the food, wow. We tried a few dishes, and each one was unique and packe

This has been my favorite Italian restaurant in Columbus for over 20 years. The owner Shawn is one of kindest people. The chef Matt is also a gem and makes the best food. The tirimusu is amazing. You feel the real family Italian atmosphere while you're here and I can't recommend it enough. P..S ask for Shawn's famous blueberry martini, you won't regret it!
