An average experience — the spinach artichoke dip (not pictured) & the pizza were delicious & the best tasting. The sides were okay, except I wouldn’t recommend the mac & cheese. Despite being a lil slow since she was seemingly the only server, our waitress was sweet (:

The food was great the service was great the server was great. We will be going back.

I often find myself here. Though recently I had a dinner meeting here, Jackie was our server.The choices are many and everything is tasty!!!Jackie and the other servers are AMAZING, they're hard working and they strive to get it right!I have allergies and intolerances :-/ and it wasn't an issue at all.I recommend the espresso martini, or an Irish coffee on a cloudy day,or sitting outside with bottomless mimosas with friends on a warm sunny one. The bartenders are remarkable. It's always a joy and everyone is so kind. The owners are often popping around, working as hard as their staff...IMO: Give them ALL of your money, because it would be well spent.Truly well done???????????

Rating: 3.5 out of 5 stars I had a pleasant experience visiting Roam for lunch on a Monday afternoon in February. However, our experience at Sunday brunch (table for 2) today was not nearly as pleasant. We had a reservation and were seated promptly. We placed orders for drinks which arrived within 5 or so minutes. However, the waitress delivered hot water and sugar for tea with no tea bags - we had to hunt down the waitress before we could get started on the tea. The wait for food was around 45 minutes and the restaurant was not even full inside. The brunch selection was appealing and the food was good; however, some of the food items were not prepared to our order specifications, such as sunny side up eggs which were delivered as scrambled eggs. After waiting 45 minutes for the food, it was nearly noon and we were starving, so there was no way we were sending the food back to be corrected. After finishing, it was another 15-20 minutes before a waitress returned and we could ask for the check. The waitress was not attentive or very pleasant, although there were several servers and the restaurant was still not full. We have had a more positive experience here for lunch in the past, but would probably not return for brunch.

Great atmosphere, good food, good drinks, and had a great time as usual, but it was freezing inside the restaurant. Don't sit in the back near the restrooms if you can help it during the colder months; it's uncomfortable even with a jacket. Maybe a space heater would help..... The food portions were amazing today!

The pizza was totally burned, the waitress said this is how their pizza looks like normally!! BS. The burger and meatball were average. The fries was too salty. The attitude was horrible. We asked 3 times for napkins until we got it. The waitress asked us to leave saying that tables are for 2 hours max while there were many empty tables and no one waiting. They were really rude. We wont go back.

Went with friends for a Friday night dinner. Desserts and PB martini were fantastic. I had the chicken on tortellini with pesto cream sauce. Chicken was dry and pesto sauce was a little bland. Husband had fish fry. Great portion and hot crispy fries. Oil used to fry the fish tasted like it needed to be changed. It's a fun neighborhood restaurant great for conversation and friends. Prices are very fair. Food is ok and (street) parking is a b$%&*.

Had a great first-time dinner at the end of January and was back the first week in February bringing in people for lunch. On our first visit, a Friday night, We ordered the fish fry and red snapper special. The FF was big, perfectly done, and tasty. The red snapper was both flavorful and colorful. The prices are realistic and easy on the wallet and the wait staff is great--they don't hover but are attentive. Liked it so much we were back for lunch with friends the next week. Consistently good so far. Well worth a try.

Our visit for brunch was just okay. Mimosas were great. The menu on their website isn't the same as theirs currently, which happens. The croissant sandwich was great, veggie pizza, and a few others. My eggs were cooked well but my I think all 3 of our home fries were cold, which was very disappointing. My toasted English muffin was also room temp, my friend's buttered toast was room temp with cold butter, so it was unspreadable.Not planning to go back for brunch.

What are the incredible first time for us to enjoy a night out together we had never come in here before and we wish we would’ve years ago the meatballs were incredible the spinach dip was crispy but still very creamy the pasta was gluten-free and the salmon was perfectly cooked also the plates were bigger than your head and it was worth every penny
