Roma Italian Bistro - Ruston (LA)

4 /5 Shannon D: Dinner for 2. I ordered the eggplant rolatini and it was excellent! I would definitely get it again. Husband ordered the chicken parm and it was not very good. The chicken tasted like a frozen pre-breaded, chicken patty with a thin lackluster sauce. The rolls that came with the meal were very good, ave our server was very nice and attentive.

5 /5 Nerd Lord: My dad took me and my niece here to eat as a reward for our hard work. This was my first time eating at an Italian restaurant and I was very impressed. The service was phenomenal and felt welcoming. The food was delicious and satisfying. I had the spaghetti and meat sauce which went well together. The sweet tea was also very nice. I will return and recommend anyone to check it out for a good Italian meal!

2 /5 Justin Vine: The food was pretty lousy. Did not taste any worse now authentic. I had read reviews before I came in and I hope to this place. As we were in town visiting for the college. They environment was family friendly, and the waitresses wear nice. Other than that there wasn’t much good about food. The rolls they gave you for pretty gross. Did not taste like they were fresh. I made the mistake of asking for a veal Parmesan and that was not on the menu. My mistake. It was horrible. It was very hard, burnt and overcooked. I’ve never tasted veal that bad of my life. The other dishes were nothing to write home about either. For the price, the meals are very small. I probably will not go back to this place. It’s just ehhh and not worth my hard earned money.

2 /5 Amber: I love Roma’s, specially the chicken primavera. I ordered it through DoorDash tonight for dinner and added shrimp. I was pretty disappointed by my food. The sauce is usually thin but tonight the sauce was so thin it was like water. The dish itself was also flavorless, especially the shrimp. I had to add many of my own seasonings to make it have any taste. I also wish there was a no protein option for the primavera. My tiramisu however was delicious as always.

5 /5 DEBORAH CRAWFORD: My husband and I drove about an hour just to find a new restaurant this past Sunday. So after searching Google we found Roma in Ruston La. It was busy of course and perhaps we went through the wrong door( it was by the bar) when we were approached by this waitress who was having what looked like an anxiety attack. She had a long braided brown ponytail and she looked like she needed a smoke break. She never smiled, even when she passed by our table. Nevertheless, the food was very good ( a Greek salad with added chicken and spaghetti for my husband). The other waiters and waitresses were friendly and accommodating. They made us forget about the one we meet around the bar area. Our waiter had a wonderful smile and made sure were taken care of. One bad apple did not stop the whole show. We will be coming again.
