“ Absolutely a must visit family owned Italian restaurant. The service is quick, the food is great (and fairly priced), and the staff are friendly and attentive. I have been coming here for years, even left due to job changes came back and the owner still remembered me! If you want to visit a great family atmosphere, pro military restaurant, look no further than Roma's. Additional comments 10 mos later: Roma's is still awesome and the food is delicious as always! Had chicken parm and it was excellent! ”
“ We stopped in when passing through because I saw someone else's post about the steak and cheese egg rolls, they were fantastic. We happened to be there for the Tuesday pizza special, so after our quick appetizers, we took a couple of pizzas home, and also had leftovers for breakfast the next morning. Everything was good, lots of toppings! We felt like it was our own hometown while we were there, our waitress was one of the friendliest people you could hope to meet. Even the other folks dining there smile, or said hello when they walked in or as we were leaving. If you want to stop someplace that has the feel of real small town hospitality, this place sure has it. ”
“ This is one of our favorite local restaurants. The shrimp and corn chowder is very good. The pizza is amazing. Be sure to ask for Kenzie as your server. ”
“ WOW, great food, home made ingredients amazing tastes, large portions & fair prices!!! Just happened to find this place due to weather & traffic so bad, took some back roads and ended up in Bowling Green, VA. Call out for the Steak & Cheese egg rolls!!! Picture shows 2 but order came with 4, we tried as an experiment but they were so good, wolfed them too quick before photo. Not greasy, great flavor, 4 of them alone is a meal for 2. The Onion Rings, were the old fashioned individual style, not frozen, nor greasy just light & crispy, order came with 20 or more rings, not just 4 or 5 like some places!!! BRUSHETTA anyone?? Probably the BEST I've ever had!!! 11 out of 10!! Just the perfect combo of veggies, seasoning & some sweet balsamic vinegar. Bread was crispy not over toasted or break your teeth hard, nor over soaked with oil. Order came with a full plate about 15 pieces. Every bite crispy & full of flavor!!! We ordered the Katie's Burger, 1/4 lb of beef with another 1/4 lb of pulled pork. Very taste, not smothered in sauce nor oily, a good bite of smoke flavor as you chewed the beef with the pork! Very Tasty!! Came with french cut fries. They came to table unsalted, for me I like that so I can determine the best amount to add. Others may disagree and say a bit tasteless w/o the salt. There was a big pile and again not greasy at all. Maybe they air fry? We also ordered Veal Parmegian!!! Spaghetti came with a meatless sauce, very good, a little sweet (the way I like), not acidic nor oily. Veal was a large piece, lightly breaded and near 3/8' thick. Very good flavors & seasoning in breading & sauces. Order came with a full 12" of garlic bread, again perfectly toasted & seasoned! Veal Very good! We're big eaters and could not finish either dish (a rarity) and we enjoyed our meal so much... we took orders to go!!! Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes,, 2 very large over 1/2" thick & dense, well seasoned crab meat with Rosemary Potatoes, & seasoned veggies... We loved this dish, FANTASTIC!!! A bit pricey but when you see how much crab meat you get it's worth i!! Last was a Steak & Cheese Sub. A lot of thinly sliced meat/ peppers & onions on a foot long sub with fries. WILL RETURN AGAIN TO TRY OTHER DISHES!! Keep up the great quality food with great friendly services. Thank you Isabella, Lisa, Kate & Joe! ”
“ Every April we come here with 15 or more of our high school cadets, and they are always good to us. They are very patient with great customer service, and the pizza is awesome. ”
“ Everything was great tonight from the food to the service! Thank you Joe, Thank you Peaches! We had the Texas Twinkies, Boom Boom Shrimp, and the Meatball Parm Pizza. It was all delicious! Thanks for a great evening! ”
“ Roma Italian Restaurant has been a staple in Bowling Green since I moved here over 19 years ago—and it never disappoints. Their quality is consistently excellent, and the staff always makes you feel welcome. This time we placed a pickup order and got a large Chicken Parmesan pizza along with an order of buffalo wings. The pizza was out of this world—perfectly cooked with generous toppings and that signature flavor Roma is known for. The wings were crispy, flavorful, and had just the right amount of heat. Everything was fresh, hot, and delicious. On top of the great food, their prices are very reasonable, and the service is always friendly and prompt. I highly recommend Roma’s to anyone in the area—it’s one of those rare places that gets it right every time. ”
“ I was just visiting the area and we stopped by this place twice. There was a large group of us getting take out with many other customers dining in and picking up both times. 2-3 employees put in each order back to back with no hiccups and the food came out so fast. It was also really good and the portion sizes are huge. Definitely worth coming here. ”
