Excellent food, amazing staff, cozy atmosphere ! I had such a great experience at Roma Italian Bistro! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and it's the kind of place that makes you want to come back again and again. We tried the Chef's Special and the Chicken Marsala -- both were absolutely delicious. You can really taste the quality and care in the food. The Chicken Marsala was perfectly cooked with a rich, flavorful sauce. What made the night even better was the live music on Friday night -- it created such a fun and relaxed vibe without being too loud. And you have to save room for dessert... the homemade cheesecake was incredible. Easily one of the best I've had! Highly recommend this spot if you're looking for great Italian food, good vibes, and a memorable night out. read more

My husband read the impressive reviews and suggested that we visit for my birthday. It was definitely a treat! Our server (Sam) was so friendly and engaging. He was also very generous and presented us with a slice of cheesecake just for giving their restaurant a try. Lina (owner) was also warm and inviting. She mentioned that they have live music on Fridays and homemade cheesecake that she actually makes! The food was exceptional. I especially loved the Caesar salad. The food was presented very hot, which is important to me. My husband had the vodka tortellini, and I had the lasagna - both divine and large portions. We will definitely be back and tell all our friends and neighbors. Thank you for the fine service! read more

Excellent dinner tonight. Veal Parmesan isn't on the menu but they have Chicken Parmesan so I asked if they could do veal and they were very accommodating. My meal was excellent. My wife had the Frutti di Mare mixed seafood over linguine in a spicy red sauce. Hers was also excellent. The fried calamari appetizer was light, fresh, and perfectly salted. The garlic rolls that came with the meal were soft, hot and chewy. A+ meal with a sweet attentive waitress. Nice old school New York city decor. Will definitely return. Great job. read more

Just left Roma for the first time and I had an amazing experience. I got the vodka pasta, which was one of the best vodka sauces I have ever had. My girlfriend got the calzone and the crust was phenomenal. Sam was our server and he was super helpful and all around a great human. Surprised to see this place slow because our experience and food was amazing. We will definitely be back to check out the live music on the weekends. read more

Everything is great!! Food and services is wonderful. The live music with a crooner singing Rat Pack standards was excellent and great fun. read more

We received a flyer in the mail so we decided to try this new restaurant as I'm going on a try new Italian restaurant kick. The inside is super cute, comfortable and feels like a New York Italian joint. Fresh warm bread was terrific. They made me a great latte and food was good. Prices are very reasonable. My kids and I enjoyed it. Service was good and fast. And as I'm writing this review I'm eating the leftover of my beef lasagna, which I was extra excited about since I do not eat pork. read more

Discovered this neat little spot via Yelp while traveling on business & staying 1-2 miles away. It's located in a non-descript strip mall, but the bright bistro lights out front were warm & welcoming. The fresh new interior was a pleasant surprise with a large mural of the Brooklyn Bridge on one wall and a large granite/quartz bar, surrounded by booths & tables. I ordered the lobster ravioli with shrimp & vodka sauce, side salad, house merlot, & a tiramisu later for dessert. Their house made Italian dressing has a tomato base which was a first for me & somewhat unusual, but OK. I loved the banana pepper & crutons most on the salad. The lobster ravioli was excellent, with large pillows and good sized shrimp on top. The vodka sauce was very good! Their house made dinner rolls are nice, light, and herbed. One glass of wine was perfect for this casual Italian dinner in an upbeat decor. I also enjoyed the tiramisu dessert, light and creamy and dusted with powdered sugar and chocolate drizzle. A very enjoyable new (1 month old) spot - give it a try! Great value for the reasonable menu prices. Very good service by both who served me. NOTE: they offer a list of craft cocktails that I didn't try this trip, but it looks like it might be fun to come sit at the spacious bar & sip those with some appetizers or entrees! read more

Visited here on a Tuesday night. The restaurant was clean and the staff was very friendly. The bread was fresh and my glass was never empty. Food was delicious, will definitely come here again. read more

Roma Italian Bistro - Lasagna - Italian Near Me - Plano, Texas

Outstanding local place in Plano. Tastefully done interior and everything is clean and spotless. All our entrees were excellent and the free house garlic rolls were warm and started us off on the right foot. We had chicken fettuccine, a meatball sub, Italian trio, Rigatoni special, and a side salad with house dressing. Everyone brought home leftovers from the plentiful portions. The owner, Kenny, stopped by to check that everything was good and the servers were friendly and efficient. Discovered this place after a lunch visit for pizza (also very good) and so glad we came back. Highly recommend for good food at very reasonable prices. read more

The food is excellent and service on point. Great entertainment on Friday and Saturday nights. Half off bottles of wine on Wednesday.

Food was great! It didn't take too long to receive our delicious food. And we thoroughly enjoyed the appetizers as well! The cheese bread was surprisingly tasty bc I wasn't expecting it to taste better than how it looks. The fried calamari is solid but nothing too crazy! But the chicken Alfredo was so good and creamy. My bf also really enjoyed the chicken parmigiana as well! The space is really nice inside and very clean. Would definitely recommend this place! read more

Came here for dinner on a Saturday night and was not disappointed! We were seated immediately, the service was great, and the live music was fun (and not too loud). The lobster ravioli was so good. I could eat the sauce like a soup. Having the complementary garlic bread to dip in it was the cherry on top. Great local spot! read more

The chicken was over cooked across all the entrees. The marinara sauce on the margherita pizza was quite watery. In my opinion it needed less tomatoes and more basil, but okay ... that's personal preference. The real stand out of the visit was the singing. It was a great business decision, I must say ... because the abysmally dreadful singing murdering all your favorite songs really distracted from just how bad the food was. Four entrees and the only person that finished theirs was me ... more from a stubborn obstinacy that anything else ... I paid for it and it probably wasn't going to kill me, so I was going to finish it. Would not recommend to anyone who's health and or mental well being I valued. read more

We'd never been here before but we googled something near our hotel and it popped up. The place was dead on a Sunday night but as soon as we walked in we were greeted by a guy named Tanner who was SO warm and welcoming and made us feel like honored old friends. He got us seated, brought our drinks, made enthusiastic and honest menu suggestions. We got the stuffed mushrooms, manicotti, garlic cheese/tomato bread, a stromboli and a lasagna. Everything was made fresh and came out piping hot and tasted homemade. Portion sizes were great, half of us took home leftovers. The free garlic bread was very tasty and soft/pillowy and warm. The places are very reasonable too - basic pasta runs you $10-14, more advanced stuff like shrimp, crab, lobster etc runs a bit higher but I didn't see much on the menu over $25. The atmosphere has great NYC photos everywhere and brick walls, very cliche Italian restaurant, with a full bar as well with a big selection. There are TVs mounted so I assume they show games etc sometimes. Tanner took awesome care of us and when the meal was done, he brought us dessert - a limoncello cake (TO DIE FOR) and their panna cota, which was fresh and very tasty and ooey-gooey goodness. read more

Super attentive staff! You can tell the owner cares the restaurant is super clean and first impressions upon walking in were awesome! I got the chicken Murphy my wife got the tour of Italy and we also shared the stuffed mushrooms. Everything was fantastic and portions were generous and displayed well! I would have to say this is one of the best places to eat in Plano. This place is a hidden gem! read more
