    Spinach Calzone. Asked to sub out ricotta for artichokes. No up charge or problem.
    Lori D.

    15 minute wait on a Saturday night. No problem. Great beer and wine menu. So many options. My son and I started with the spanakopita with tzatziki. He had Greek pizza and I had the spinach calzone. So much homemade marinara on the side. We both only ate half. Really good! Love the atmosphere.

    GYRO  and potato salad.

    It's the second time I've been here. I came back for the gyro because it was so good the first time. It comes in two sizes (6 in and 12 in, but the 12 is really two gyros.) They come stuffed full of meat and tomatoes and lettuce with a great tzatziki sauce. Service is pretty good, it just depends on how big the crowd is, just like any other place. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. It's definitely a place I would come back to again.

    Great spot downtown with a nice and relaxed vibe. Came here with a few friends for dinner and would definitely come back! I got the chicken souvlaki kabobs, which were cooked very well. Neither the asparagus nor the chicken were dry, and the rest of my friends were also very happy with what they got. Service was great, except their default tip options for when you pay were 25, 23, and 22% which is definitely questionable.

    Food was just ok... Service was typical. The ambience was casual but good. I know this restaurant has been around for a while and seems to be a staple. Maybe try something besides the calzone.

    Indoor & outdoor seating available.

    It took a while to get menus and have our order taken. Granted it was dinner hours during the day before VT undergrad graduation so, it's busier than usual. Once we ordered, food came out pretty quickly. My mussels in chopped tomato salsa type sauce was SO salty & overcooked. Rubbery texture. It tasted like mussels had been cooked in brine, frozen then heated up. Will never order again. The others ordered Gyros Sandwich, Cheeseburger, Philly Cheese Steak Sandwich. All of those tasted fine, no complaints. BUT, the Philly Cheese Steak Sandwich had no grilled onions, nor grilled bell peppers. Some restaurants only do grilled onions but this one had nothing. Just 2 romaine lettuce leaves which left us all scratching our heads. I don't know if we'll be going back here when we go back to Blacksburg. **The steps to enter the restaurant slopes downward towards the patio and a bit slippery. There are no railings. An old man went crashing down hard onto the brick patio and it looked like he had hit his shoulder against the metal cart by the entrance. We all rushed to help him but his son(?) got him up and had him wait at the sidewalk to get the car. It was extremely scary. So be careful with those steps!!**

The covered patio is fantastic--it sits perfectly between buildings, creating a light, refreshing breeze that makes outdoor dining incredibly comfortable. There's also an ample amount of seating, so you never feel cramped. The service is just as impressive as the atmosphere. Our first server, Cassidy, was so amazing that we specifically requested her on our second visit. As for the food, you really can't go wrong. My husband, mother-in-law, and I tried the Philly cheesesteaks and tortellini on day one, and followed it up with the baked ziti, manicotti, and broccoli Alfredo on visit number two. Our pasta entrée's came with a fresh tossed or Caesar salad, and they start you off with warm, soft bread that has the perfect crust. The portions are incredibly generous (expect leftovers!), making the pricing very reasonable. For my husband and me, our bill was only around $45 including soft drinks. We love this spot for lunch and can't wait to come back for dinner and drinks!

Let's start with the positives: They were flexible, let us change the wine for soft drinks. Despite getting there right at dinner rush, they got the food out quick. Portion sizes were good. The bad: The food itself was okay, not mind blowing. Would say the pizza was good, but it seems like we both got edge slices that seemed to be more bread than topping, luck of the draw there maybe. The dessert was the saving grace, simple and not too sweet. Overall a positive experience but i'd be more inclined to give this 3.5 if Yelp had half stars.

Sometimes it is only open for takeout and the tiny hours are limited to around the weekends for dinner. I had considered trying their Roman style pizza, but a pesto pasta special enticed me. It came with a granular, sort of cheese and a robust flavor. I thought it could've done with some fresh tomatoes on top or something of that nature to balance it out, but even as is the pasta was springy and the walnuts that came with it filling. The special soda I ordered was not available, and I got switched to a regular root beer, which to be fair was quite good.

We've been looking forward to trying some local eats since I'll be in town on business for a few days. But after the long day and delays on the road, we were exhausted. Cue "settling" for the take-out menus. Ordering was just a little difficult as it was hard to understand the nice man taking our order and they had to call back because they got the credit card number confused, but they were very nice throughout and very customer-oriented. I've got to say, if this is what settling gets you, I want more. That was some quality food. Just the right amount of greasy, the toppings were zesty and spicy, and the sauce was aces. Most places we order from back home have a 3 or 5 mile limit on delivery and their food is cold if we are near their geographic limit. Roma got our order to Comfort Inn on the South side of Blacksburg and it was piping hot and amazing. For food, we're planning to explore the town a little bit while we're here, but going to recommend Roma to lots of people.

The waitress tried to pressure us into feeling bad for giving her over 10% tip stating she expected 20%. M'am respectfully, if you don't do anything beyond your job why do you expect 20%?! Last I checked, tips were meant as a bonus for doing an exceptional job. Just dropping off our food with a smile or taking our order with a smile is the bare minimum when you're in a service oriented job. Not sure when people started becoming so entitled, but if you received a tip worthy of the work you did that should be enough. Definition of what a tip should be: A tip (or gratuity) is a voluntary, discretionary sum of money given by a customer to a service worker (e.g., servers, barbers, valets) as a token of appreciation for a service performed, over and above the base price. Overall, food was good. The staff just made a scene and made everyone at the table feel uncomfortable. It was a party of 4 we got a few drinks and appetizers I think in total we spent like $60. So it's not like it was a gigantic group and she was working her arse off.
