I drove from UB north to Batavia specifically to get a Venice Pizza . I’ve been craving it for awhile. It was a dreary rainy day today but not freezing (!) so I went between lunch and dinner and got my favorite table across from the pizza oven ( for warmth and aromas!) It was a really nice relaxing hour or so enjoying a glass of wine and 2 slices. I’ll savor the rest tonight and tomorrow. My waitress Sharrielle (?) was outstanding. And pizza man Justin 👍 **. I haven’t been since fall and I was very surprised ( and confused) when I walked in the door. There is now an Italian deli in the entry area before the dining rooms. You have to check this out. Very nice selection of goodies along with the deli meats and olives etc …….. Had to get a pic of the crew. The nicest “guys” who seem to have a real sense of pride in the restaurant . Thanks! PS They were doing a good business for an off hour.

Food was great! The only thing we didn't like is the "slanted dishes" that they serve the food on. Denise was our server and took good care of us. We will be coming back soon

Ok! I found it! I have been looking for my favorite fig pizza since December. My favorite so far had been Roma’s in Kennebunkport Maine believe it or not. But I finally made it to Romans in Batavia yesterday!! I had a feeling this would be at the top and I was right. 100% worth a 2 hour RT from Buffalo. It’s hard to compare pizza because all pizza is good and they are all different. Most of my adult life I have loved -NY pizza best. ( Koronets upper west side near Columbia!) After living in Rochester NY for awhile I learned to appreciate other real Italy style pizza. But I’m on a fig kick so —— I went in at an odd time and ordered the pizza at the bar. I wasn’t even aware that in an adjoining room there were people eating late lunch. And that’s where my pizza was made, I should have asked his name because it was phenomenal. Especially if you love a lot of taste without the heaviness. Much smaller then Romas in Maine and my other figs in BUFFALOVE , also much thinner crust but not cracker/y! Just the right texture so if you wanted, you could even fold it . Good sign. I love my goat cheese and thankfully they didn’t overdo the mozzarella. Perfect. And not fig jam but real pieces of tender juicy figs. Of course very good balsamic glaze. The prosciutto was perfect for me; very thin and some even had a bit of bacony crunch. Yummy!! Oh forgot; no minced garlic but a garlic oil. Good touch. I had one fresh warm slice, 3 not heated up ( the arugula). I’m not sure about the next 3. Tonight!! Looking forward to it. I was thinking about the raspberry cheesecake bites but the pizza was ready before I ordered it so I saved the calories. I am looking forward to coming back many more times. I’ll force myself to try other things! Actually meeting family there next weekend from Rochester. I promised them they would love it. PS They opened with the Pandemic so let’s make sure this great spot remains successful. They deserve it. Great choices regarding what atmosphere you’d like to eat in too! NYC style. Roma’s, Roman’s !!

What a beautiful restaurant. The flooring, the walls, the bar, and on to the dining tables . . everything was clean, well lit, and quite inviting. Our server, Casey, was an absolute charm; right there and ready to bring drinks, take orders, answer questions. A perfect gentleman making our stay quite comforting. The food was absolutely delicious! We enjoyed a buffalo chicken pizza as an appetizer and it was simply perfectly cooked, edges blackened from flames but the bottom was just perfect. The antipasto serving size was large and delicious, the side filet mignon was cooked and seasoned perfectly. The chicken marsala dish was usually one where only half would be eaten, but it was so delicious the entire plate was devoured. The sausage cacciatori was declared the best ever, serving size was enough to take some home. Needless to say, the filet mignon dinner with standard sides was devoured, as well. Greatly recommend the restaurant for a great night with friends, family, or a date. Enjoy~

We enjoyed our meals here, but the service was very slow. I had to look for someone to take our order and then again to get our check. They seemed understaffed. I went with people that had been here before and they said the service was never this bad. I doubt I would return here with so many other options nearby.

Chicken Parm 4 out of 10. No love put into it. Not flattened like true parm. Since too sweet.Tastes like a frozen breast deep-fried. Minimal sauce on chicken or pasta. Small portions. Service was great though. I expected so much more with the real Italian dish.

The customer service was great unfortunately my pizza is missing some core ingredients. Where's the arugula and balsamic glaze? I had the Venice once and it was amazing. Apparently, they're only good once. Never getting a good tip from me again.

Nobody really liked their food. The veal parm wasn't cooked all the way. The sauce was way too sweet. The gluten free pizza was the only thing kind of decent. Ryan was a good server. The hostess had an attitude.

Seating was prompt… server was good. Had the traditional pepperoni pizza and chicken Francaise … pizza was good… dinner was lunch size portion.. very small. Door to patio needs to be closed…. Flies everywhere .

We had dinner at Roman's last night, my experience was worse than disappointing, I ordered what they called the Italian beef sub whitch turned out to be large chunks of fat and and cubes of tough chuck roast on a roll accompanied by an auju that turned oit to be greasy pan drippings, no seasoning, no onion or peppers just cubed chuck on a roll, no French fries no salad the other meals, stuffed shells, two stuffed shells on a plate, not huge stuffed shells, pizza, the crust bubbled up all round and burned black. the picture here is of my sandwich I did not want to embarrass my friends or make a seen but had to bring it to the attention of our server who was very nice

Husband's company Christmas dinner last night at Romans in Batavia and it was the worst meal experience I've had. So incredibly disappointed. Rude servers. Freezing cold. Gross mixed drinks. Just awful!! I feel so bad for husband's boss who had to pay for that. Most of our table got the wrong plate or it was cooked wrong. Baked potatoe - cold. Steak - grey. Veggies - hard and way under cooked. Then they didn't have more steak to replace it! Then they were washing the door windows and rolling garbage cans out before a couple of us even got our food. Servers and manager were far from friendly. So after a freaking Christmas dinner, ended up eating cheese and crackers at midnight at home.

The meal was beyond unacceptable. We took one bite and lost our appetites. When the server finally came to check in, we let her know that it wasn't to our liking. We were asked for specific reasons which we obliged her with. She took the completely uneaten meals and left us seated there for a while. We were then approached by the server and another female (didn't identify herself) who inquired the same about the meal and the detail of why. She the proceeded to tell us that that was how the meals were prepared and that they always taste like that. They offered us something else to be ordered in place of the meal and we said no thank you. So then they said, ok, the bill then and left. They printed the bill and dropped it off at our table. When we inquired how it was that they could justify charging for meals that were untouched / consumed, we were informed, "well, that's why the other lady came and offered you something else" Not once was that made as the alternative. And most importantly, why would we risk ordering food from an establishment that stated that, the food we found inedible always tastes like that? We understand that there are costs associated with the meal that was ill prepared but quite repulsed by their policy as an establishment. Would we ever return? That would be a definite no.

I visited Romans tonight with a friend for the first time. We ordered spicy chicken wings and a chicken spaghetti dish. From the first bite, the wings were overwhelmingly salty and sharp with vinegar; they were difficult to eat. When the waitress asked why I didn’t like the wings, I told her it felt like I was eating straight vinegar and it was burning my mouth. She responded that they didn’t add vinegar, but that the sauce itself contains vinegar; it didn’t make the dish any easier to eat. My friend tried her dish and also found it unpleasant. We told the waitress; she offered to bring something else, but after both dishes were so poorly prepared, we didn’t feel comfortable ordering more. We also had a long drive ahead and didn’t have time to wait for another option. Despite clearly explaining that the food wasn’t edible for us, we were still charged for both plates. Nothing was packed to go, though we didn’t want it anyway. I was surprised by the way the situation was handled. I rarely write reviews, but this experience was very disappointing; both the food and the response to our concern fell far below expectations.
