Food was delicious and portions were large for the price. Service was great and very friendly. Menu is traditional Italian food. Had a great flavor overall. Their bread is amazing as well. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Dining area is very nice and clean has a mix of tables and booths with a bar area as well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Family friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Has a low light atmosphere vibe with traditional Italian decor and music.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will definitely be going back. read more

We were regulars at the Roma's in Seminole. I was really excited about them opening in Shawnee which is so much closer to us. However, the times we have been there, the food and quantity fails by comparison. Also, why would they change the recipe for the OGB which is something we all loved? The new OGB fails. read more

We were driving through town looking for some food and stopped in to order to go. The lady who helped us was super sweet and the owner was a pretty good lookin guy. We ordered the tortellini siciliano, spaghetti and chocolate cake. The chocolate cake was very good. I had the tortellini and it was a very odd mix with ham, olives and pink sauce. It didnt quite "hit right" with the flavors together. read more

The service was very good but unfortunately the food really wasn't. It was bland without much spice. It was a little pricey as well. I won't be back. read more

The service was horrible. No pleasantness, no smile, no friendliness at all. Had to try and get someone's attention by standing by our booth for 16 minutes to even get the check and then that still took another 10 minutes after the manager went and got her. The next awful thing was there was no pizza dough at all to make anything. Not too great for an Italian restaurant plus they had no steaks. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It looked the same from the previous restaurant that was there that went out of business.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We will not be going back! Wasn't a welcoming atmosphere at all!![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Plus when we did get our food there was no flavor in mine (chicken piccata), and the manicotti was super sweet. read more

We came here to celebrate our anniversary. It's our second time here. The food was outstanding! From their complimentary rolls, to heir salad dressing and to the main course. My husband ordered the lasagna and I had the chicken Florentine. The rolls were like little round French bread fresh right out of the oven. The oil with garlic dip we had really ties well with the bread. It didn't come as a complimentary but you have to get this and try it for yourself. Warning: very garlicky but oh so delicious! House made dressing came with the meal. That too was amazing! Flavorful and creamy with a touch of sweetness to it. I had the Cesar dressing and hubby had the ranch. The chicken Florentine I ordered was perfect! Creamy, flavorful sauce with mushrooms and spinach topped with grilled chicken cooked to perfection. My husband ordered the lasagna and he told me that it was delicious! Now, with that said, the one negative thing I need to mention is our waiter. He is an older guy who wasn't friendly at all nor said much. I thanked him every time he came around our table bringing our food or when I asked for more napkins. He wasn't engaging. Maybe it's just his personality. I think if you're working for tips, you'll do what you can to earn the big tips. This guy didn't seem to care. He wasn't the only one waiting on tables there. In spite of the server experience, I will not hesitate to recommend this place specially if you around town. read more

I'm not here to bash anyone. I'm merely here to speak of my experience. To start, our waitress was extremely nice, but very inattentive. We were NEVER asked for a refill of our drinks during our visit and our first basket of bread rolls were over cooked and crunchy. Without saying a word, she brought us a second basket of rolls that were clearly not overcooked, but very doughy/undercooked, but still edible. The bread itself wasn't bad, but not Italian. Just simply basic dinner rolls with basic flavor. It surely wasn't garlic bread ​that you would expect to have at an Italian restaurant. The salad before dinner was also nothing to brag about. Just a choppy head of lettuce with a thinly sliced tomato slice, sprinkled with mozzarella cheese and topped with ranch. No color and very bland. For our main dish, we ordered the pasta combo! We were pretty excited because we read it was a large medley and the price was higher than the other options of pasta, so we thought it was a good choice. The medley was lasagna, manicotti, spinach ravioli, tortellini, and baked ziti! When our dish arrived, you can imagine our surprise when the portion size was that of a small meal. The lasagna had NO meat and one lasagna noodle on top smaller than half a lasagna noodle with melted cheese underneath it. No layers to it whatsoever. Once I found the spinach ravioli, it was one ravioli that was green from pureed "something", but it wasn't spinach. And if it was, it was mush, like artichoke and spinach dip squeezed in the middle of pasta. I've always experienced cooked spinach in the middle....not baby food. The tortellini and baked ziti is not fresh and it was obvious. I never did find the manicotti. ‍ But, that wasn't even the worst part! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The most uninviting part was dining with friends and other patrons while someone went up and down the isle with a vacuum 3 different times as we were eating![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] That, to me, is unacceptable while eating out at a restaurant! We were there before 5:30 pm so it wasn't like they were trying to close. Let's finish off with this.... Our table consisted of 2 couples, a total of 4 of us, and she brought us one ticket! Didn't even ask if we were on the same ticket or not, which we weren't. Both my husband and I, and the other couple, ordered the exact same meal, but our tickets (and it's not a big deal AT ALL) were slightly different by a penny. Yes! A measly penny! My customer receipt and the business receipt was off by a penny on the taxes, which, again, is NOT a big deal. Example: Customer receipt said tax was $2.37 but the business copy said $2.38. Before someone thinks we may have ordered different drinks that changed the price...... we didn't. Both us and our friends ordered 2 waters and 2 teas, along with the same dinner plate. All in all, the food was edible. It's exactly the same thing I could've made at home with ragu, but I would've had layered lasagna with some meat for way less...and cheaper. Way over priced, even though the prices aren't bad, for mediocre food and a medley pasta portion made for a toddler. I hope your business does well in the future and I hope all the criticism helps you build a better clientele! All the best! read more

Roma Ristorante - Yes. This is our medley of pasta. Lol The hand in the pic is for portion size. - Italian Near Me - Shawnee, Oklahoma

Food is disgusting, taste like a bad frozen TV dinner! Very tasteless! Service is so so. If you want good Italian food go elsewhere!

Food was 'okay' nothing special. Service was on the slow side. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance was like a Mall restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Not sure we'll go back. read more

We were there on Sunday and although it was busy the service was quick. Our server, Jenny, was friendly and helpful. The garlic rolls were warm and delicious. The Sammy's dish had a good mix of peppers, onion and mushrooms with just a little bit of heat. Overall happy with the experience. read more

Sorry to do this but this is a horrible place to eat. The waiter was extremely rude and received food poisoning form the meal. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Their new place is an old steakhouse and the decor still looks that way.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I would highly not recommend this place. -------TORTELLINI SICILIANO-------- read more

We use to drive to Seminole anytime we wanted manicotti and excellent bread with a vinegar and oil with Italian seasoning not to mention an Italian dressing on the salad that makes you crave for it, it's unusual but wow!!! The service is impecable and we now have our very own Roma's in Shawnee. We love it! read more

I love this little Italian restaurant. Love bringing my family and sharing all the good food! Service is fast and friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance is great for a family dinner.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I will always be back! read more

This is the best Italian restaurant I've had hands down! My husband works on the road so I've tried very many across Oklahoma and Texas and this is going to be the one to drive to when I can't get it off of my mind! Service is also amazing, I wish we would've asked for our waitress name because she deserves a review as well! 5 star all around! read more

Food was amazing and the waiter was very attentive. Pricing was good but portions were a little small. Well worth it though!!

The staff was friendly, our server seemed a little over zealous but she was nice, and attentive. Some of the other servers/employees seemed like they kept staring at us for some reason, there wasn't too many people there when we got there. The food was alright, nothing to rave about. I'm suspecting most everything we ordered hit the microwave before it got to our table. The rolls came out really hot like it was nuked. We got calamari for appetizers which again came our really hot. I started out with a Caesar salad, flavor was ok, but the lettuce leave were really soggy like it was sitting for a while. One of us got eggplant parmesan which looked to be a really large portion, I didn't taste it but it didn't look very professionally done, presentation is everything. My daughter got the spaghetti and meat sauce, she took one bite and said she didn't want it, again, I didn't taste it. My wife got the calzone, it was pretty big. She said it was just ok. I got the lasagna which was ok. It was overly hot, I'm guessing it may have started out in the oven and finished off in the microwave, but the portion size was good. If management sees this, I think the price is a little high for the quality of the food. I would be ok paying a little more for smaller portions of excellent food, than for big portions of mediocre food. If everyone at the table has to take home a to-go box, somethings wrong, except my wife, she doesn't eat much before saying she's full and the leftovers will just sit there until I decide to throw it away, but anyways. She says she may want to visit one more time to try the pizza since she heard they were good. read more

Absolutely love this place! Little pricey but delicious! Wait staff are always friendly!

110% awesome place! Food was delicious, service was great, and [[HIGHLIGHT]]comfortable atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We had a party of 9 and was easily accommodated![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will definitely come back. read more

Food was really good. The chicken Alfredo, calzone and trio were really good, service was a little slow. Definitely would go back again.

I'm glad we have this new restaurant in Shawnee. I've eaten there twice and both meals were very good. I've tried two of the shrimp dishes, in both instances the shrimp were large and plentiful and the pasta perfectly al dente and the sauces tasty. The service was prompt and friendly a[[HIGHLIGHT]]nd the restaurant is clean & inviti[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]ng. I'd recommend it to anyone who asks. read more

Finally, Shawnee has a nice Italian restaurant. Roma recently opened in the old branding iron steak location. Shawnee has needed a decent Italian restaurant. Out came the bread rolls. Fresh, hot, & tasty. Some of the best rolls in the metro area. Next were salads. A nice selection of greens, tomatoes, artichoke, peppers, onions, olives, & dressings. One of our party ordered the pasta sampler with lasagna, manicotti, & spinach cheese Ravioli. It received good marks. The chicken parmesan spaghetti was just an "Ok" with the comment that the spaghetti sauce was a bit too sweet. The baked ziti got a huge thumbs up. The chicken Alfredo was declared very good. One of our younger group decided that spaghetti would be just the thing only to reject it over the sweet sauce. Finally, an appetizer of fried mozzarella cheese sticks was passed around with mixed reviews. They still are working out the kinks. An example is there were nine tables in our section of the dining room, but we had to share a single oil & vinegar tray among all the tables. It was inconvenient, to say the least. We are ready to try it again once all the kinks have been worked out. read more

Great Food ! Great Service! Sammy the owner treats everyone like family and servers are always top notch!! Johnny is the Best!

The best meal I have had in Shawnee. Everything was authentic and fresh. Definitely my favorite restaurant now.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Food is excellent, loved the service and atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The Alfredo was delicious. Salads are tasty.

I was with a group of 18 the other night. Our service was great, and everyone was very pleased with their food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We were in a private dining room just inside the front door. Everything was clean and new looking.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My one pet peeve is that one server put everyone on his side of the table all on one ticket. You have to go to the register, tell them what you had and pay there. You never get your own check. The lady who served the other side of the table did give individual checks. We all prefer individual checks. All one check is the way they handled it at the Seminole location. I don't care for that. Otherwise, everything else was very good. read more

Spent our evening dinner here celebrating a birthday party. Staff was courteous and accommodating to the party. Menu selection was vast and varied and definitely centered around the Italian dishes typical to American Italian restaurants. I would have liked the Marsala sauces to have been a little heartier and flavorful. The tomato sauces though were robust and good. Salads were fresh and serving glasses were large and the waitstaff never let me see the bottom of it. Prices were reasonable for the portion sizes and several of our party took leftovers home. The dinner rolls were great and the sweet butter made them enjoyable to a fault. Looking forward to giving them another go when the opportunity presents itself. read more

The service is out of this world, the food is amazing, and the pizzas is the best in Shawnee.

This was our first visit to the Roma's in Shawnee. The Only good thing about the meal was the bread. My husband and I both ordered fettuccine alfredo. The cheese sauce on the alfredo tasted like gravy. It was Nasty! Also, the salads were not good. This place is Way over priced. We will not be going back. read more

Roma in Shawnee, September 2024. Food was good. Service was friendly, but I wouldn't say it was outstanding. I just wasn't super impressed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place still looks like the old steakhouse, with no Italian decor to speak of.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Guess I just expected too much. read more

All I need to say is that the Owner Sammy is amazing and genuinely cares about his customers. My husband just had lunch there for the first time and was extremely impressed with the customer service. Business ethic WELL DONE SIR! read more
