    Cozy feel
    Devin W.

    Delicious! We came here on a whim and are so glad we did. This place has multiple locations on the Buffalo area. We dined at their Sheridan Dr, Williamsville location. This restaurant is on the smaller side. Maybe just over a dozen tables. If you get cold easily I would recommend not sitting by windows. Our server Alex was great. She was knew the menu and had favorites to suggest. I went with lasagna and asked for garlic bread with cheese on side. (Note garlic bread isn't on menu but they will make it). My wife had the lobster ravioli with pesto sauce. We're thoroughly satisfy with our meals and the portions had us bring home a good amount of leftovers. The menu is full of a variety of dishes and you can choose your own sauce, be it red, pesto or Alfredo for most of the dishes. They also have a refrigerated display of their deserts. Not many places sell napoleons but they do! They also have a Nutella and cannoli like pie that is unique along with your traditional Italian deserts that all looked very tasty. If you like Italian then you definitely need to put a Romeo & Juliet restaurant on list to dine!

    So I will always give praises to Romeo and Juliet's food. But the service was a little slow. They always have kids working and they're not paying attention to you and just talking amongst themselves. But other than that this sandwich was bomb and the vibe is very chill with their fireplace.

    The Picasso Panini

    My mom and I stopped in to Romeo and Juliet's cafe for lunch and were seated right away! This little Italian gem has become my new favorite place for lunch with plenty of delicious options on their menu! I opted for the Picasso panini which was a true work of art of a variety of different deli meats! The Panini came out so crispy and perfectly grilled! It was so large in size that I even had leftovers for the following day! The inside of the restaurant was so cute, and decorated as if it were taken straight out of Italy! It even has a cute little outdoor patio you can eat out on when the weather is nice! I will definitely be returning to this little gem! Maybe next time I will try something new off the menu!

    Always a very good meal. Service is good. Flatware is a bit light, paper napkins rather than linen, but the food! Delicious! The quality of the food more than makes up for other issues. Everyone who works there is friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. The sesame vinaigrette is worthy of accolades. The salads, entrees, pizza, desserts- everything is absolutely delicious. We've been coming here four or five times a year for the past 20 years and are always more than satisfied. Some of the portions are so large that you'll need a doggy bag. Trust me, you won't want to leave any of this food behind. So good!

    Sfogliatelle

    Love this place! Wonderful ambience, decent prices, and authentic italian sweets like the Sfogliatelle I can't find anywhere else. I'll come here as often as I can. Nice and attentive service as well.

    R&J's pizza is the best gourmet NY style outside of NYC. While they have a wide variety on their menu, they are always accommodating when we ask for specific items.

    San Vito pizza

    I've frequented Romeo & Juliet several times for lunch since my work is very close. Unfortunately I hadn't had the chance to eat here in over a year since working from home. I was able to meet some co-workers last night for dinner for our book club. The restaurant is so quaint and you feel like you've stepped into a cafe in Italy (at least that's what it feels like it would be in my mind since I've never been!) The service and the food were great. I shared a San Vito pizza and spinach salad. For being basic ingredients, I was really impressed with the salad. The dressing was fabulous. I loved all the ingredients on the pizza; they really went perfectly together. Other dinners got lasagna, eggplant parm, and braciole. Everyone said they loved their dishes! I was so glad to get back to this cafe. Hope it won't take another year!

    Wow. Hands down some of the best pizza we've had…read more We ordered the San Felice Pizza -- San Marzano tomatoes, house-made sausage, sweet and spicy peppers, onion, buffalo mozzarella, and fresh basil -- and it was absolute perfection. The flavors don't compete... they melt together into one big, perfect masterpiece. The peppers leaned sweet (no real heat), which made them the ideal companion to the delicious sausage. And that sausage? Made in-house and seasoned beautifully, with the perfect amount of fennel -- enough to give it that classic Italian character without overpowering the pie. Perfection! The buffalo mozzarella added creamy richness, the basil kept everything bright, and the San Marzano tomatoes were clean and balanced. We love pizza in all its forms -- New York style and Napoli alike -- but there is something about the rustic goodness of true Neapolitan pizza that has a special place in my pizza-loving heart. That airy, soft center and char-kissed crust from the wood-fired oven is magic. The use of such fresh ingredients makes Forno Napoli my favorite pizza on NY so far - authentic and intentional. There is a lot of love and pride in everything from the handmade crust to all of the toppings. They also serve a garlic butter and cheese dipping sauce for the crust -- indulgent and completely unnecessary in the BEST possible way. That blistered crust dipped in that sauce? Unreal. The cheese? Yes, they have the most beautiful wheel of pecorino they hand grate from to make this happen. No green shaker bottles here! We met Felix, the owner, and he was incredibly welcoming. He has such great energy -- warm, engaging, and clearly passionate. You can tell he's the heartbeat behind the recipes and the success of the business. It feels personal. He made us want to share just how great our entire experience was and he certainly made us want to return. Our only regret? We were too full to try another pizza. Do not hesitate. This truly is a slice of heaven.

When you're ready to order, head up to the counter. After ordering, head back to your seat and the will bring you your food when it's ready. My friend had the meatball sandwich (napoletana panini). It looked fantastic. But when I asked his rating, he gave it 6/10 stars. However, I wouldn't trust anyone who doesn't like cheese so take it with a grain of salt I was torn between the Bianca and Quattro pizza so I asked the kind man at the register for his suggestion; he said the Bianca is more popular so I went with that. I enjoyed my pizza, although I wouldn't order this one again. I do want to say that it is pricey but you will get a very big pie of great quality. The dough was excellent! It was actually my favorite part and I've never said that about any pizza! Atmosphere is extremely casual. There's fruit infused waters to have and you go and grab them yourself (back right corner). But you can order bottles of soda, alcohol, etc. Also in the back right corner are small pizza boxes for leftovers you can grab if needed. When you cash out, be sure to enter your phone number for the rewards program!

The au gratin potatoes were shredded potatoes. They were okay but definitely not what I would have expected at a steakehouse. I would not order them again. They had carrot cake available for dessert and it was delicious.

While we had a 5pm reservation, in hindsight it probably wasn't necessary as we were seated right away and quickly greeted by our server, Allie G. To start, I ordered the Apple Cider Mule (mocktail) which was festive and delicious while my brother went for the Logan Mule (so Buffalo). Naturally, we wanted bread (what I thought was a given in an Italian restaurant). Sadly, it was $3 for warm bread, which felt a little rude, but of course I ordered it and devoured it, too! I also started with the mushroom bisque that was on special and it was fantastic as it was rich, flavorful, and the kind of soup you want to eat slowly so it lasts longer. For my entree I chose the Crespelle while my brother got his favorite, the Brasciole. The food was truly the highlight of the evening. Everything was prepared well and very, very satisfying. I would say that the service, unfortunately, left a bit to be desired. Not terrible, but not great. I hate having to ask another server to bring a box, the check, etc. because our server was no where to be found. There is free parking somewhere, though we only noticed the sign for it after we had already paid to park. That said, the atmosphere at Tappo is always lovely and the portions were generous for the price. Of course, I'd absolutely return - especially to try one of their fun igloos someday!

The restaurant has a very generic modern bar scene vibe with roll up doors and the bar dominating the space.

The dish lack cohesion and it was as though they cooked rice and tossed it in a flavorless sauce. The accompanying lobster sauce was desperately needed, but underdeveloped. The dish needed significant seasoning improvements.
