    Chicken Piccata
    Keith C.

    I was in Sandston on a business trip and in the mood for some good Italian food. My hotel recommended Roma Ristorante, and as soon as I walked in, the aroma confirmed I was in the right place. I started with the calamari, asked for it cooked a little crispier, and it came out perfectly--tender inside, crispy outside, and paired with some really nice dipping sauces. For my main dish, I had the chicken piccata. It was beautifully presented, served hot, and bursting with flavor. To top things off, I grabbed a cannoli to go, which made for the perfect finish later. The service was excellent--attentive without being overbearing--and the whole experience left me impressed. Definitely a place I'd come back to when in the area

    Bourbon
    J David H.

    Roma Ristorante brought more than one surprise that elevated them into rare 5 star territory for me. When researching a restaurant by Richmond International they seemed to be an obvious choice. Signage was easy to locate them and parking was not an issue on a Monday night. The parking area and walk up were clear of debris. A hostess greeted my party and immediately seated us in the main dining room with menus. Of note the menus were quality stock. A friendly server arrived for drink orders, I got a glass of house Cabernet. We put in for an appetizer of bruschetta. Our party was seated close to the small bar. The lighting, decoration of bourbon bottle displays and atmosphere was totally on point for me. They were having a Monday pasta night special which was considered. Ultimately with a long travel day and just arriving from the airport I went big and got the Trio. That's a combo of spaghetti, manicotti and chicken parmigiana. Our waitress warned us all the portions are large. My guest got the Lasagna. Both came with salads and bread. The app was pretty good. The wine was just ok, not sure what their house was. The bread warm and yum. Food orders hit the table around 30-35 minutes after ordering which was perfect. It allowed plenty of time for the app, bread and salads. The Trio was enormous and lasagna was formidable. Both were enjoyed and half the Trio was put in a to go. I mentioned to the waitress that I was crazy impressed with their bourbon menu. She pointed out that they offer a bourbon tasting night that always sells out and requires reservations. Desert was up next and they have a nice selection, ultimately the chocolate cake and tiramisu were chosen. They came out within minutes. My tiramisu was nicely portioned, light and flavorful. The chocolate cake was a wow! The close out of the check was smooth. Note they offer a 3.5% cash discount. As we ate desert the owner Antonio came to our table to thank us for dining with them. He learned from the waitress that I enjoyed bourbon. So we talked probably 10 minutes about his menu and more. I learned he has another location by the same name in Mechanicsville that his brother runs. Whenever a GM or owner checks on my table the review is elevated. However it's the rare bourbon menu which sealed their fate as a full 5 stars. They offer bottles few restaurants dream of having and the prices are good. Antonio himself a bourbon lover hand picks the collection. This is a sleeper location so far East of Richmond in Sandston by the airport, but they have their regulars. They have a strong bourbon following which is no surprise. Also they have options for event space. Check them out, I promise you will not be disappointed.

    Calabrese Pizza
    Dustin H.

    Great stop as we were passing through the outskirts of Richmond. The arancini appetizer was delicious. We split a large calabrese pizza--roasted peppers and smoked sausage on a sweet (but not too sweet) marinara sauce. The pizza crust was hand-tossed and tasted wood-fired, with smoky crisp bits. Despite having plenty of the sausage on top, it wasn't even slightly greasy and felt light to eat. After a day of walking through VA parks and historical sites, this really hit the spot! Decent selection of beers on tap, wine by the glass, and a solid+ bourbon menu to boot. Our server was friendly and efficient, the prices were very fair, and service was fast! There were several pasta dishes that looked terrific but we were more than happy with our choice of pizza.

    Penne with Meat sauce
    Pat H.

    Service is great. The bread is delicious and when we finished the two rolls, the server asked if we would like more. As a starter we ordered the crab stuffed mushrooms. There were 6 large mushrooms to share. They were great. When finished we dipped our bread into the remaining cheese from the mushrooms. The main dishes were excellent. Ans as usual we had leftovers. The ambiance is pleasant. Nice looking rooms. The main room was full so we got the back room. I really like that area. Away from the main entrance. I decided to end with a cappuccino. There was backup of drink orders at the bar. So had to wait for the cappuccino. The cappuccino is worth the wait. But I couldn't finish. So server brought a take out cup for it. Asked first and I said yes.

    Tiramisu- The chocolate syrup kind of ruined it for me (actual melted chocolate would be better than artificial syrup) so I didn't get a strong espresso flavor. Crab ravioli- It was good overall but it could be better. It tasted like they mixed in imitation crab meat or something else other than just good quality lump crab meat. I think if it was filled with only quality crab meat inside I would have loved it because the pasta and sauce were good.

    Greek salad with chicken
    Emily S.

    This place is a small cute restaurant with an excellent menu. They have a lunch menu with sandwiches, wraps, soups, salads, and lunch portion pastas. I decided to order the entree Greek salad with chicken. 2 downsides- it did not come with any bread or nan & they do not have Greek dressing (I opted for the Italian dressing). But the salad was delicious! I'd definitely go back!

    I have a full-on love affair with Zorch Pizza. I crave it. I think about it when I shouldn't. And…read morewhile they've got more than one location, this review is strictly for Carytown because that's my spot. The vibes are always right. It feels like community the second you walk in. Hector is the coolest, hands down--great energy, great personality, the kind of person who makes you want to come back. Oh and did I mention you can get pizza by the slice! The variety is mind blowing and they always have vegan options!!!!! I'm a thin-slice person. I need the right ratio of crust to sauce to toppings, and Zorch nails it every time. Plus, no flop! The cheese slice is a classic and was my favorite... until I discovered The Upside Down. Listen, when I bite into that slice, I literally close my eyes. I see a lot of people say it's greasy. For this one, grease me down baby. The flavor does everything it needs to do. Layered, bold, and honestly addictive. After that slice, I don't even want a regular one anymore. Next up on my list: The Grandma. And for context, I've had Angelo's in Philly. Respectfully? It doesn't compare. Sorry to all the other grandmothers out there lol. One note though-it's heavy on the garlic, so if that's not your thing, you might want to pivot. If it is your thing? Strap in. It's been a few years since I've been able to say I found a legit pizza spot in RVA. A spot that I bring others to often! I'm happy to say I've found my pizza home. Much love to the Zorch crew. See y'all soon!

The pizza was good but nothing to run home about. The sauce was sweet and the dough was thicker than I would've expected for a NY style pizza. It tasted nostalgic and reminded me of school cafeteria pizza (not meant as a bad thing). I wasn't a fan of the Buffalo chicken pizza. Mostly because the menu description wasn't accurate. It's listed as chicken, buffalo sauce, and cheese, which I would have loved! But it came with onions, green peppers, and what tasted like blue cheese. I would have opted for a different pizza if I knew that's how it came. The owner, Joe, seems to be responsive in the Facebook group and often posts updates with his hours and any special deals for the day.

The food truck hub location is definitely not a conventional location and can definitely be inconvenient to get to (especially for takeout during rush hour) on the bridge. The pizza though, was definitely worth it. Everything about the cheese pie was great, but what really stood out was the sauce on it. It was sweet, with a lot of flavor to it. I can definitely see why it has become people's favorite pizza in the area. I ended up eating 6 slices that night because it was that good. I would recommend and return to this location for sure!
