    3. Chicken and Gyro Combo Plate
    John L. H.

    I have discovered the best Mediterranean food in the Baton Rouge area. If you happen to live or work in BR you are lucky to have several very good Med restaurants to choose from. I thought I had found the best until a co-worker recommended this Roman's location. We usually hit up Roman's for lunch. If you need good food, good service, and to get in and out quickly, this should be on your list. Saying the food is good is a bit of an understatement though. It is legit great. My go-to is the combo gyro shawarma plate. It comes with rice, hummus, and a salad. I ditch the rice for extra hummus and they do that for no charge. The gyro is great but the shawarma is by far the best I have ever had. It is tender and juicy and as flavor-packed as any other food I have ever tried. I do not know how they do it, but it is impressive. My combo plate and water were around $16 before tip. While that isn't a cheap lunch it is about average for BR lunch places. I strongly recommend you add this to your list.

    We stopped in for some Greek food when we realized our refrigerator was empty after returning from vacation. We had never been here and it was pretty close to our house so we thought we would try it out. It is hidden in a strip mall next to Smoothie King. First impression was a little under whelming. The place is small with only 10 tables and a small bar. But the smells coming from the kitchen were devine!!! We asked about some wine. The server recomend a Greek red, which I got and loved. BF got one one of the two white wines they had and he didn't care much for it. We started with an order of fried cheese. I ordered the meat moussaka with baba and hummus. BF got the gyro plate. The cheese came out pretty quickly. It was crispy on the outside, creamy on the inside and sitting in a creamy garlic sauce. Each dinner came with a greek salad, which was fresh and not too heavy on the greek dressing. The dinner plates arrived with some hot herb covered fresh pitas. Not sure they were house made, but they were so soft and light. The hummus and baba were very tasty and went well with the herbed pitas. The moussaka as soooooo good. Seasoned beef with eggplant and bechamel. Yum! They are uber eats, so we can get our greek fix if we are too lazy to get in the car and drive next time.

    Busy lunch today

    Let me start off by saying I loooove Roman's Cafe! At first, I used to just order the gyro plate, but one day I tried their Roman's salad with gyro and I fell in love with it!! It has romaine, feta, artichoke, grape leaves, falafel, onions, olives, tomatoes, tabouli, grecian sauce, dried tomatoes, and thin, crispy pita chips! You can add meat to it for an extra charge, which I always do. It's a great alternative if you're trying not to eat too much rice or pita. Their Roman's salad dressing is so addicting that I always ask for extra! My friend absolutely loves their flash grilled lamb and hot sauce and constantly raves about these two items, so make sure you try those too! The service here is always great and everyone is usually friendly. I've never had a bad experience at Roman's and definitely recommend this place to anyone in the area or from out of town!

    Absolutely delicious. Fresh pita at the table as soon as we sat down. Courteous staff. Reasonable price for the quality/quantity. I couldn't be happier with my lunch.

The spicy vodka sandwich is very, very good, and it is a very large sandwich. You could split one and both people will walk away happy. Service here is fantastic- refills as soon as you ask and a kind staff, even when there's a rush. I will say there is a little bit of a wait, BUT good food should take time, and that is the case here. PS- the Lebanese Tea is fantastic!

But after looking around for a moment, she found a more descriptive menu. I suppose if you're a regular, that's not an issue. For a first timer, it's weird. I came here with high hopes for an Italian hoagie ("The Italian"). A good Italian hoagie is hard to find in the heart of po-boy country. The meat and cheese on this version is good, but the sandwich is kind of small and a bit dry. The menu says it includes roasted red peppers, but that was missing from my sandwich. It does appear they have a nice variety of bagels. Overall not bad, but I'm still in search of a good Italian hoagie.

First, the store was dirty. Plates were piles up on numerous tables. The floors were sticky. Next, I ordered behind a group of three people. After they ordered, the employee walked off and I waited another five minutes or so to order. I had to repeat my order twice and correct the drink as she was pouring it. I stepped aside to wait. While waiting, a couple of kids walked in. They waited about 10 minutes without being acknowledged. They left and two employees who just needed to acknowledge their existence made some snarky comments for all to hear. While I was waiting, there was clearly a tussle in the kitchen with employees shouting at each other and one lovely f bomb dropped. Another employee mediated and calmed it down, but they all had attitude. The trio in front of me got their food after about 20 minutes of waiting. A door dasher came and waited a while during that time and got his order. Someone finally asked me what I was waiting on. I am pretty sure at that moment they just started to make it. Here is where the only star was earned - A very nice employee walked out with my food after another 10 minutes and apologized for the wait. She offered me a free item, but I just took a refill of my drink. She was friendly and acknowledged the fact I had been waiting for so long. (35 minutes for slathering chicken salad on a croissant) I walked out the door just in front of that trio who had finished their meals and I had just received mine. So I took my order home..... no side. The sandwich was correct, but they did not give me the entire order. That was disappointing. And I paid way too much for that sandwich. I won't go back. As much as I loved the restaurant and love the menu all these years, this location sours it. Someone in corporate needs to visit this location because it will not and should not make it.
