My friend decided to come to Bad Roman for dinner yesterday but we didn't make a reservation so he went there earlier around 5:30pm to get a table but it is very popular so we got a spot at the bar The bar is quite nice as well if you and your friends are waiting for the table or just walk in and that's a solution while waiting We had our dinner at the bar since it was full house last night We ordered two sides and two main courses and couple drinks for pairing My friend had one dirty martini and three glasses of red wine and I had one white wine We had meat balls and asparagus for the sides. The asparagus is drizzled with acid sauce so it is quite tasty to have it in summer Meat balls were delicious, too. The Cacio e Pepe is not impressed and I didn't taste the smell of the pepper but the penne is very special with the longer form Branzino was very tasty and the green paste was really refreshing which tasted very similar as chimichurri sauce and we loved it The dessert we had tiramisu ice cream cake and it was amazing ! Definitely recommend to try it The whole vibe of the restaurant is good After sunset the music was playing and the feeling was so right It is a nice place to have a date or a birthday celebration dinner Note: valet parking is available and street parking and other garage parking are available as well read more

TLDR: Food's genuinely good, some kinks needs to be ironed out. We called to make a last minute Saturday resy for opening time. Luckily they had a spot so we went in. They're also on OpenTable. Street Parking or lot parking is paid. Easy access. They have a fairly decent sized menu with lots of veg and pescatarian options. We got the shrimp chitarra minus shrimp/veg, crab luigi, eggplant pull a parm, sauted spinach, and lemon cheesecake. They also gave us a sorbet on the side for celebration. All of it tasted amazing, especially the marinara that's served with the parm and the sorbet. Drinks were alright, the dessert cocktail with pine nuts needs to be skipped if you dislike pine nuts as much as I do (but did not know pinolo stands for that). They were out of/low on the cars for the shots. The restrooms were out of toilet paper. So there are some funcitonal things they need to work through. The ambience gives zealous modern Italian opulence in the pun-iest way and is extremely cute. Fun fancy date night spot all in all. read more

New(er) Italian restaurant in Beverly Hills that I had come across and added to the list of places I must try. Made a reservation and headed over. First, ambiance, very welcoming and frenetic, in a good way. Plenty of staff everywhere and everyone is willing to help you out and attend to your needs. We were seated right away and started off with cocktails. The Mai Tai was decent, really didn't stand out to be honest. In terms of food, we began with the Roasted Garlic Babka and the Dressed Kumamoto Oysters. The babka was like a croissant type bread, very soft and flaky, really flavorful but in the shape of a loaf. Hard to really describe and it was worth it! The oysters had a cherry pepper mignonette on top which gave them a pop of added flavor which was a nice touch. And the filet mignon meatballs were delicious. The grated grana padano had a crispiness to it, adding a little texture from, I'm guessing, being broiled quickly, with fresh cheese grated on the top for presentation. Just a great bite. I'd say in my top five meatballs in Los Angeles. For entrees we ordered the Spicy Lobster and the Agnolotti Bistecca. The Bistecca was ok, really tasted under seasoned to us, but it's stuffed with filet mignon and has a sweet balsamic glaze. The spicy lobster is served with campanelle pasta and calabrian chili, and is prepared for you, with a show, table side. This was actually very good, great flavor throughout, and comes with a whole lobster tail and the meat from two claws. Great entree. Finally, for dessert, I had seen these lemon type dishes coming out, and assumed it was the lemon cheesecake, so ordered that. So creative, so delicious and so much fun. It's a lemon cheesecake, molded in to the shape of a lemon with an outer layer shell, sitting on a bed of crushed graham crackers. You crack/cut in to the "lemon" while getting some of the graham cracker crust to assemble your bite. Just perfection. Chef's kiss! Overall, new Italian addition to Beverly Hills and Los Angeles as a whole, and a quality addition at that. Drinks were ok, not necessarily the place I would go for a congrats but not bad either. Get the babka and meatballs for sure, as well as the spicy lobster. The oysters if you're really wanting oysters but you can skip the agnolotti. And absolutely try the lemon cheesecake! read more

We were lucky enough to snag two spots at the bar, and it ended up being the best seat in the house! Our bartender (I wish I remembered his name) was incredibly kind, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. The atmosphere was exactly what we were looking for. It was packed, lively, energetic, and full of great vibes. The cocktails were a highlight! The Pepperoncini Martini and the Amalfi Diet drinks were so unique, fun, and absolutely delicious. The 'Roni & Ranch was the perfect appetizer and one of our favorite bites of the night. Honestly, we could have stayed there for hours just enjoying the food, drinks, and atmosphere. If you're looking for an upbeat spot with amazing cocktails, delicious food, and fantastic service, this is it. Highly recommend! read more

Our first time at Bad Roman was a winner. We sat at the bar and first ordered a martini. It was served in beautiful glassware and was the biggest martini I've ever seen. Beware if you have more than one! For dinner we ordered the Faroe Island salmon which was perfectly cooked and seasoned. The pasta mafaldine is tasty but rather plain. The side of sautéed baby spinach was delicious. The bartender provided outstanding service, and was fun to chat with. The atmosphere is swanky with beautiful chandeliers and nice lighting. You feel wowed the minute you walk in. Highly recommend! read more

Loved loved loved Bad Roman. There are so many good things to say, it could be called Good Roman. I didn't know it's only been open less than two months and there are certainly things that will get better but I loved what they have going on so far. Which is a lively atmosphere. Good cocktails (eventually they will be great) and fantastic food. My server was Robert and props to him. We had a great experience and would be treated to be served by him anytime. He had great recommendations and his honesty with his thoughts was spot on. It was a Thursday night and it was packed. We weee sat in the back part of the place so conversation was easier at our table. However if you want the scene and the vibe make sure you're seated in the front room. Next time I will be for sure. We started with table garlic bread that was a good start and definitely didn't want to fill up on it. I tried a nice spicy tequila cocktail. It was made with a habenero shaved ice. It was good but not anything I'd repeat all night. So I opted for a Lalo old fashioned that I drank the rest of the night. The bartender was consistent which is key because they were delicious. We got the spicy Cesar salad, hamachi crudo to start and those dishes were both excellent. We shared everything. Family style. There was four of us and we order three pastas, two mains and three desserts. No one left hungry. And there weren't really leftovers. The Cacio E Pepe with shaved truffle was the best thing I ate for the pastas. We had a filet stuff pasta and the tomato base Arabist's pasta also. But the cacio was so good we ordered a second with our mains. For the mains we had the Wagyu New York and the Branzino. I'm not a big New York fan so it was fine. But the branzino was perfection. We also got spinach and fries on the side. For dessert we had the panna cotta, the chocolate cake and what I loved the deconstructed lemon cheesecake. When I go back it will be hard to try something different but I will. And I can't wait to get back for more Bad Roman. read more

I am so happy to say that Bad Roman lives up to ALL of the hype! We had an incredible dinner there with friends, and everything was amazing, from the decor, to the food, to the service. The menu is amazing and has lots of options! Let's start by listing all the delicious food - the Cesar salad was delicious (heavy on the cheese), the whipped ricotta was heavenly, the garlic babka was out of control, the fried eggplant was hefty, and all the pastas and proteins we got were amazing. The dessert was some of the best I've had. Highly recommend the sorbet and the lemon! Service was great too. Our waiters and all the staff were incredible. Only notes: It's super cold inside. I think they could use some gluten free and vegan options. Also, they do cook the lobster pasta tableside. This may be a concern for anyone with an airborne shellfish allergy, and the smell does linger. Otherwise, can't wait to go back!!! read more

Spectacular Vibe they got going on. From the moment you walk in, you will be impressed. This place has a unique & funky style of decor that pairs very well with the upbeat energy inside. The appetizers I ordered for myself were nothing short of delicious. The salmon sashimi plate was INSANELY GOOOD. It honestly blew me away & I would surely order it again next time i come. It is super citrusy but also very sweet. The thin jalepeno slices are a great touch as well. The oyesters were so great & fresh. They come already dressed up with toppings so you don't have to stress too much about that lol. The server was super helpful & kind. Loved the whole experience. read more

Caligula, Nero, Claudius, Incitatus were all bad Romans except for Incitatus because he was a horse and Mario who was an excellent Server at Bad Roman. Creep through the traffic in Beverly Hills, until you get to the tile wall with a Neon Snake and Bad Roman displayed. It's really should be Good Roman (no, make that Great Roman). Enter, look around. It's everything Las Vegas wishes it was. Ritzy and glitzy from the open ceiling to the closed reservation book because they're often fully committed on Open Table. The dining room is flashy and panache-y but inviting and comfortable. The pumpin' thumpin' loop is absorbed by your second Double Pour Martini. At 5:00 Pm it's time to take Mom and Pop out for a treat. By 8:00 PM the battle at Monte Cassino was quieter. The Vibe: This is where you hang when you've arrived, the charges got dropped, they bought your script, and the high flyer equities you took a plunge into will now allow you pay off all three mortgages. Everyone was totally hip along with a few hip replacements. Small touches count. A Salt Cellar with Maldon Flaky Finishing Salt and a small hefty Pepper Grinder are on the table for use at your discretion. It all makes you feel good to be here and plan a return even before you order and that's even before you try your first loaf of marvelous Garlic Pesto Babka. The Bar: Way cool and hot at the same time. The beautiful people are stacked up 3 deep with LA's fickle foodies, someone on a Hinge binge, and Bad Roman regulars that make up a convivial crowd without any one feeling crowded. A generous pour of Signature Cocktails, Classics, a Curated Wine List all let you to blame the Bad Ass Bad Roman Bartenders when you're blowing into the breathalyser at the Sobriety Check. Despite being mostly off booze I was tempted by the Martini Pepperoncini. "Hello, my name is Ron and I am a back sliding weakling when it comes to a good Martini". And that's what this was with Oak Leaf Cluster. I am guilt free for having had it. The Bad Ombre was short and to the point A wannabe Whiskey Sour that was easily drinkable (said I after a polite sip). The Staff: Mario was a Pro from the jump. Bright fellow, he was, knowledgeable, and just enough Mario tableside to curate a fabuloso dining experience. Brother Mario knew when to take charge and when to take a powder. He enhanced the whole adventure. The Food: Dannatamente buono. The Garlic Bread Babka was positively brilliant. Served hot, a soft interior with a river of Pesto running through it. Redolent of Garlic all encased in a Parmesan Cheese dusted crust. Order two and I defy you to leave a crumb behind. The Crispy Calamari Casino was a basket of Calamari Fritti which were battered tubular slices, deep fried and dotted with specks of Speak (Bacon), a drizzle of Lemon Juice and a drip of Marinara Sauce. Eat'em while they're hot and before they become soggyfied. No problem, I inhaled them. The Spicy Caesar gradually offered up it's heat. Toasted Bread Crumbs stood in for Croutons. All in all this Caesar had a right to preside over the Roman Senate. The semi-main event was a Grilled Pork Double Cut Chop served with a meaty Rib. The Pork was sweet, perhaps from a Maple or Brown Sugar Glaze, but not too sweet. It was tender and running with juice as a Pork Chop cooked just right should be. No mystery chew, no gristle, no sinew, no cartilage, and no strings attached. The Chop was settled onto a bed of Roasted Escarole. Let the juices saturate the greenery first, then enjoy it. A very clever presentation indeed. As soon as the heat quiets down a bit go feral on that bone. The show stopper was the Grilled Butterflied Branzino. It was cooked as good as anyone can cook Fish. It was served spread Eagle on a bed of Salsa Verde and fresh Lemon Quarters to squeeze over the delicate filets before you. The Fish was translucent and transcendent and had me desperate for a third Garlic Bread Babka to sop up everything that slipped off my fork. Cooking Fish they well separates the true Professionals from the occasionally lucky home cooks. Mario lobbied for the Lemon Cheesecake and boy, was he right for which I remain grateful. The "Lemons" were really pastel colored White Chocolate illusions. Crack into them and find Lemon Panna Cotta. Questo e stato fantastico. It didn't hurt to add two ample scoops of Blood Orange Sorbetto. No more roamin' round town looking for killer Italian. My roamin' days ended at Bad Roman. read more

Somehwat posh and well decorated restaurant to spend the evening. Great location too as you can walk around Rodeo Drive if you have to wait. Can be a little noisy since its a bit crammed in there. I suggest starting with the garlic babka bread which is the top item in their appetizers. They also had a great salad dish, the Spicy Gem Caesar which isn't spicy (luckily) and had lots of cheese. The main course was excellent as well, particularly the seafood dish, the lobster pasta dish which had delicious seasoning/creamy sauce/chewy noodles. We also finished with the lemon cheesecake which was beautifully presented in the shape of actual lemons. Service was very friendly and checked up on us often. read more

Bad Roman had been on my list for a while, and it lived up to the hype overall. The space is lively and fun, with a trendy atmosphere that makes it a great spot for a night out. Parking was fairly easy to find, they also have valet. The dishes were flavorful, well-executed, and perfect for sharing, service was good as well. It is definitely on the pricier side, but that's pretty much what I expected given the location, so it wasn't a surprise. I'd come back for the experience and to try a few more things from the menu, especially with a group. read more

Nothing bad about this place. Went with a big group so we got to try a lot of the menu. The service was definitely good for a big group they were very attentive. My favorite dish was the pepperonis but I really like pepperoni so maybe that's just me. The lemon cheesecake is very light and unique, the presentation is beautiful. The only disappointment of the night was the filet with raviolo it was very bland. The pastas were delicious and the drinks were strong. Solid new addition to Bevery Hills. read more

The interior is vibrant, and perfectly lit, making it an incredible spot for a fun night out. However, the food is just fine, and it doesn't live up to the hype or premium price tag.

Server was attentive, ( LiNDA) drinks were brought out promptly. Wedge salad was delicious, it was definitely different from usual, topped off with thousand island. Steak was meh with the white sauce, lobster pasta was good, a little spicy if you like spice, and I like Thai spice. Potato wedges were good. I rate this place 7-8/10. What stood out the most was the service and the food was well seasoned, ( not too salty, but enough flavor) lol! It's a cute medium sized restaurant. read more

Christine, the concierge at L'Ermitage Beverly Hills, recommended Bad Roman, and I'm really glad we listened. I have to admit, I was a little apprehensive after reading some of the reviews, but they couldn't have been more wrong based on our experience. From the moment we sat down, everything was outstanding. Our server was knowledgeable, friendly, and made excellent recommendations. The manager was also very attentive and stopped by several times to make sure we were enjoying everything, which was a nice touch. The food was excellent. The babka and Caesar salad were both incredible and are absolute must-orders. The pasta was cooked perfectly, and the branzino was fresh, flavorful, and one of the best dishes of the night. I also expected the restaurant to be much louder based on what I'd read, but that wasn't the case at all. It had a fun, energetic vibe without being so loud that you couldn't have a conversation. This is a restaurant I would definitely come back to. Great food, excellent service, and a fun atmosphere. Thanks again to Christine at L'Ermitage for another fantastic recommendation. read more

Went here a few weeks ago with a few friends when it just opened. The service wasn't up to par as they were still trying to figure things out which would have been forgivable if the food was amazing. The food was alright but definitely not memorable. Probably won't be back unless I'm dragged in by my friends. read more

Bad Roman - New American Near Me - Beverly Hills, California

Bad Roman is a beautiful-looking restaurant, and the staff is friendly, but unfortunately the dining experience did not live up to the hype. Despite having a late dinner reservation, we were kept waiting for about 30 minutes. By the time we were seated, the restaurant was already emptying out, leaving us among the last diners there. The croissant bread was the highlight of the meal--so much so that we ordered a second round while waiting for our food, which took an unusually long time to arrive. The Cacio e Pepe was, without question, the worst version of the dish I've ever had. The eggplant looked impressive when it arrived, but it was extremely salty and barely edible. The fish was dry and served slightly cold. For a bill totaling $509, the only memorable part of the meal was the bread and butter. Very disappointing overall, especially considering the price point and reputation of the restaurant. read more

Amazing first (of many) visits to Bad Roman. After hearing all about the NYC location - happy to say it lives up to the hype. Our server Ashlyn set a high bar for the experience, taking such great care in making sure we had the BEST night. Food was excellent, with the signature Filet and Raviolo a standout, we also loved the whipped ricotta, the pear and arugula salad, the garlic Babka. Make sure to save room for dessert - Ashlyn made sure we got to try her favorite, the Blood Orange Sorbet- something we wouldn't have chosen otherwise, and it may have been the underrated fave of the night. The deconstructed Lemon Cheesecake, Tiramisu ice cream cake, and the chocolate torte were great too. We really enjoyed meeting several of the staff who were so welcoming to this new space, and really made the experience. Bad Roman is well represented in LA by this team. read more

Thai is a beautiful romantic and hip restaurant. Parking shouldn't be an issue. Vallet parking is also an option. Service is very good. Reservations are highly recommended. Portions are as expected. Pricing is a little bit higher than we would like, but that's not a surprise given the location. Food isn't anything in particularly special. The best items are their appetizer items. 3 1/2 stars that I'll round up. read more

Finally had the opportunity to dine at one of the hottest newly opened restaurants Bad Roman in Beverly Hills, and let me tell you.....the hype is REAL!!! Pulling up to the restaurant our eyes were drawn to the giant neon red snake on the front of the building adorned against dark green concrete blocks mixed with frosted glass cubes. At that point we knew we were in for a treat unlike any other customary dining experience in the 90210. Upon entering, we felt as if we were teleported to a speakeasy in the lower east side of manhattan. Such elegant, yet wild decor of giant stone pigs and plant like chandeliers cascading over the dining room. The energy throughout the whole place was indescribable, something LA has needed for quite sometime. We met up with friends and were around 20 people for our reservation. Our table wasn't ready yet so a few of us grabbed a drink at the bar in the standing area. Bartender was very sweet and made a fantastic pepperoni martini which I've never heard of before tonight. We waited about a half hour until they seated us but the hostesses were very efficient in updating us every few minutes with the status of our table. We were shown to a crowded room in the back of the restaurant which was a little tight but fun and comfy. We had to stand up a few times to let other customers by, but wasn't a big deal, we were just grateful to have a table. To be honest, a couple of us felt a little embarrassed and ashamed that we were coming in to a restaurant so late on a Saturday night with such a giant group of people at closing time, but all of that guilt melted away when our server approached our table. Our server Robert greeted us with such a positive upbeat energy, he made us feel so warm and welcome. A few of the people at our table we didn't know were a little annoyed they had to wait so long to be seated and were being a bit demanding and rude to him when ordering drinks, but Robert smiled through it all and within a few moments had them cracking up with laughter and smiling throughout the rest of the meal. Kudos to you Robert for being a true professional. Once the drinks came, it was off to the races. Robert's suggestions were spot on DELICIOUS! The yellowtail sashimi was amazing, and the pepperoni cups were not only fun but very tasty. Caesar salad was good but could've been spicier in my opinion. A few of us couldn't decide between filet or the wagyu New York strip, so Robert suggested the porterhouse which he said was the best of both worlds, in which it truly was. We were gnawing at the bone, it was so perfectly cooked and seasoned. All in all, the drinks were great, the food was fantastic, and the service was extraordinary! I can't wait to bring my coworkers next time, they are going to love it. And we would be thrilled to have Robert as our server again. Being a former waitress and bartender in NYC, you really appreciate exceptional service when you see it and ESPECIALLY when you experience it. Thank you Bad Roman for such a memorable night and thank you Robert for your service. You truly define what the word "hospitality" means and encompass all of its aspects. read more

The verdict is out! Overall a magical experience. The seafood here is very very fresh. Oysters were some of the best I've had in LA. Albacore also a 10. 10/10 also on the spicy lobster pasta. However our server seemed over whelmed and constantly forgot what we told him. He held heavy emphasis on the show/presentation that came with the pasta dish however I went to the bathroom and they brought our dishes out and did everything without me present... which I was so surprised by as we are a small party of 2. Why serve a meal to someone not at the table. From there things progressively got worse. The broccolini was so tough a steak knife would be needed to cut through. It tainted our experience. As my partner was at the table with our food and I came back to him waiting for me. The worst feeling. read more

I was so excited to try Bad Roman after calling ahead and confirming they offer gluten-free pasta. Unfortunately, what should have been a great dinner turned into a really concerning experience because my gluten allergy was not taken seriously. Before ordering, I explicitly told our server that I have a gluten allergy. To note, she did not ask about restrictions. I confirmed the all the pastas could be substituted for gluten-free pasta and even asked her to check with the kitchen that one of the appetizers was gluten-free before ordering it. She confirmed it was, and i ordered a gluten-free truffle pasta, a steak, and the asparagus side. Everything arrived and was delicious until I took a bite of the asparagus and noticed crispy toppings on it. I asked someone to check, and they confirmed the topping was not gluten-free. Thankfully, I only had one bite and my reaction would be minimal, but someone with celiac disease or a more serious anaphylactic allergy could have had a much worse outcome. I asked to speak with the manager, but after my server informed her what happened, she never came over. I had to ask two additional staff members before she finally approached our table. Instead of asking what happened or checking whether I was okay, she immediately told me they had removed the asparagus from the bill and were bringing a new one. When I explained my concern, she repeatedly interrupted me and dismissed it as a "miscommunication," saying the server thought the asparagus was for my boyfriend. She also told me, "We don't ask about dietary restrictions here." But once a guest explicitly tells you they have an allergy, assumptions should never be made. If there's any uncertainty, it should be clarified before the food reaches the table. What upset me the most wasn't the mistake itself--it was the complete lack of urgency, empathy, or concern for the seriousness of serving someone an allergen! A genuine apology from the start would have completely changed this experience. To her credit, the manager did come back to the table and apologized; she comped all of our food, leaving us to pay only for drinks. I appreciated that gesture. But with the lack of respect from managements original approach about a very serious matter, I would not be a returning customer. If you have a food allergy or celiac disease, I would strongly encourage you to confirm every single dish you order--including sides, I wouldn't assume that mentioning your allergy once is enough. read more

Bad Roman was actually a hit. Lately I've gone into most new hyped restaurants with pretty low expectations because they rarely live up to the buzz. Usually it's high prices, average food, and service that doesn't justify the cost. That wasn't the case here. The ambiance is probably the strongest part of the restaurant. The space feels fresh, upscale, energetic, and well-designed. The music was great, the crowd was lively, and it feels like the kind of place where you could just stop by for drinks at the bar and still have a great time. We started with the bread, which was fine but nothing memorable. For appetizers, we went with some of the heavier fried options. They were good, but definitely rich. If you're dining with a small group, keep that in mind because these aren't the type of dishes you'll want to eat more than one or two pieces of. They fill you up quickly. The real star of the night was the lobster pasta. This dish absolutely delivered. It was loaded with lobster, the creamy sauce was fantastic, and the pasta itself was the perfect choice for the dish. Easily the best thing we ordered and something I'd come back for again. The filet mignon with the ravioli on top was just okay. The presentation was fun and definitely gets attention when it arrives at the table, but flavor-wise it didn't stand out. Nothing was wrong with it, but it's not a dish I'd order again. For dessert we finished with the tiramisu ice cream cake. After a meal full of rich and heavy dishes, the cold dessert felt like the perfect ending. It was light enough to finish comfortably and tasted great. Service was good, though not exceptional. Nobody did anything wrong, but the staff felt very compartmentalized. It seemed like everyone had a specific role and stuck strictly to it. If someone's job was taking orders, they weren't clearing plates. If someone's job was serving wine, they weren't doing something else. The experience felt a little less natural because of that. That said, our server Ashlin was wonderful. She made us feel genuinely welcome throughout the meal and even comped one of the dishes, which was such a thoughtful gesture. It completely changed the tone of the experience and honestly made us want to tip more than we normally would. Especially for a newer Los Angeles restaurant, where hospitality can sometimes feel like an afterthought, that level of kindness stood out. Overall, Bad Roman exceeded my expectations. Not every dish was a winner, but the highlights were excellent, the atmosphere is one of the best parts of the experience, and there was enough here to make me want to come back. read more

Bad Roman is definitely my go to place when I'm in LA. Just off of Wilshire it is close to Rodeo Drive. The restaurant is beautiful. I am impressed by the attention to detail.

The minute i stepped into Bad Roman I immediately knew i was going to have a good time. I loved the moody lighting and the giant boar at the front. Friendly isn't enough to describe how accommodating and helpful every single person we've come across was. Our group had some dietary restrictions and our server walked as through the menu to make sure everything was covered. After some very thoughtful suggestions, our cocktails came out first and they were amazing. I particularly loved the Amalfi Diet, which was served in a little diet coke bottle, delicious and cute! The food was ridiculously good. Perfect medium rare steak, lobster pasta presented table-side not just for fanfare but with intention, not to mention the humongous seafood tower that felt like both a treasure hunt for accoutrements and an embarrassment of riches in the form of literal jumbo shrimp, crab legs, oysters and caviar. The lemon-shaped lemon cheesecake for dessert. Everything was presented and executed perfectly. Bad Roman just instantly transports you into your own little world where you don't have to worry about anything other than what to order (though they can help you with that too! Thanks Brendan, Rex and everyone else for the amazing recommendations) and it's crazy to think they haven't been open that long. An amazing addition to our little neighborhood. read more

Walking into this restaurant is such a vibe! The asthetic is amazing, beautifully designed. It's super viby. I dined with a girlfriend and we started with the roasted garlic babka bread and oh it is so good! Light buttery and garlicky. We also got the yellowtail crudo, also good. The spicy gem Caesar, that had lots of cheese and some yummy crunchy ciabatta crumbs. We shared the chicken scarpariello rigatoni pasta and it had great flavor. We finished with the lemon cheesecake dessert that is super cute and also yummy. It was my bday so they brought out some sorbet with a candle in a super cute dish. We also had some drinks, and overall this place is superb! The vibe, the staff and the food are all great. I will definitely be back! read more

For a restaurant that just opened less than a month ago, it was very very impressive. Priced perfectly and not gouging prices like most restaurants today. Very very reasonably priced. The food was incredible and delicious. The lobster pasta was probably the best lobster pasta I ever had. Perfect spice, right balance of flavor and not heavy. Steak was great too and all the apps we ordered. A lot of table side service which is great! Service was outstanding! For a Beverly Hills restaurant, service was excellent.

wonderful vibe, food, and service. every bite of food we had was delicious. the branzino was to die for and i can't wait to eat it again! our reservation was for 8:30 but we were not seated until 9:15. this was the only issue we had with our night as when we checked in, we were told the group at our table was finishing up shortly. there were a lot of guests waiting for their table as well, some who came before us and some after. maybe having a time limit on the tables might mitigate this pain point as the people around us were annoyed or left all together. despite the above setback, the food and drinks were nonetheless delicious! our waiter, Alex, was the best. very attentive and shared with us his recommendations as well. he created such an unforgettable night for my friends and i. read more

It's way too loud in there and I'm not that old lol. The music volume is fine, it's not that. It's the reflection of voices bouncing off the walls and ceilings. If you have to have a business meeting or want to catch up with friends, forget it. Go somewhere else. A few pieces of fabric on the ceiling or walls will fix all that. Now on to the food. It was very good. The service and the staff are exceptional. We really enjoyed the people we met. Steaks were cooked perfectly and the sides were yummy. I enjoyed the food but I don't enjoy yelling at my friends for 1.5 hours just to have a meaningful conversation. Bad Roman: go visit "Verse" - they have mastered acoustics in a restaurant. You can have a packed house, loud music and still hear the person talking across from you. read more

It's a kitschy call Cool looking place, full of wannabes. Good selection, but small portions. Gets a vibrant crowd, good energy, but I don't see it lasting for the long-term. The is OK but expensive. read more
