The original Romano Cucina sold off years ago to locals that have done a tremendous job keeping everything intact. The original owners moved to Dallas where they have a restaurant in my humble opinion this restaurant the atmosphere the food is identical to the one in Dallas.

This little gem was just a few doors down from our hotel, and I'm SO glad we decided to come here for dinner!! All our food was very delicious (calimari appetizer, lasagna & eggplant parmesan) and large portions! The calimari was some of the BEST we've ever had - so light & crispy, served with their scrumptious marinara sauce.
All that plus super friendly staff & excellent service, cozy atmosphere. We'll come back next time we're in town!

Very good food with large portions, you can easily split a meal. As a matter of fact I'm eating the other half of mine right now.

Never coming back here. The place smells like urine and I saw roaches in the kitchen when I walked by to use the restroom. Our waitress was rude and was too busy flirting with the manager to refill our drinks ! So many other better options nearby. Don't waste your money here.

Very classic Italian restaurant, dark and a little moody, a little run down, bordering on nostalgic. Good casual date night location. The outdoor patio has a good amount of heaters and was comfortable on a spring evening.

This is the first Italian restaurant other than Nardo we've returned to in the area.

Their Alfredo sauce is literal perfection.
The espresso martini was quite good
Shrimp scampi pasta was a little disappointing compared to the Alfredo.
The Calamari appetizer was solid but overly seasoned and over battered.
Spaghetti and meatballs were ok.
The cheesecake seemed to be canoli inspired and was pretty good.

Love the wine Wednesday half of a bottle wine special

Nice little Italian place in Sunset Beach. The pasta comes out hot! They have a nice wine selection. Has a locals only vibe, which is cool. Parking on PCH is a pain.

Lovely intimate authentic Italian restaurant. And despite being in Sunset Beach, the entree prices are on par with chain restaurants, but the food is way better.

Parking: Parking can be difficult since you are steps from the beach
