Beautiful restaurant with plenty of options to choose from. We ordered tom Brusheta and Burata for appetizers. Everything was delicious, and the bread was fresh and plentiful. For entrée, I ordered panini.Everything was fresh and great quality. We all left satisfied.

Charming and lovely restaurant at Clifton NJ. The decoration was beyond words. Flowers brought the ambiance to a different level

I like beef sausage panini,very juicy and flavorful. Bread and pita are all toasted and buttered. Coffee was delicious -crembule capuchino 🥰🌺🌺

It got really crowded for brunch / lunch. The staff were friendly and attentive.

One of the best restaurants in New Jersey by far. Beautiful interior and stunning exterior, the service is fantastic, really one of my favorite places to dine. Al, was fantastic and made our experience at the restaurant so much more enjoyable!❤️🍕

We ordered three things, two chicken paninis (one to go), and one salmon panini. We got ONE of the chicken paninis and the salmon panini took 30 minutes. Asked our server for ice with one of our drinks and she brought three ice cubes. Once we finally got the salmon panini, the cook came out to ask if we enjoyed it and let's just say he didn't look like someone I'd want to cook my food. Our original server was no where to be seen, though there was only about five other people in the restaurant. A different server came out and asked us if we needed anything and he got us ice almost immediately. After that I went inside to see if we could get our check and to scratch off the water I had ordered. Our original server had no idea that she DIDN'T bring us the water out and then had to reprint the check TWICE because she got the order on it wrong. They also added gratuity on the check, which I didn't see anywhere on the menu. The food itself lacked seasoning as well. My chicken panini tasted like nothing and the salmon panini was too salty. Our original server didn't give us napkins or utensils or anything, and I had to retell her what our order was when I went inside so she could give us the correct check. The items on the menu are pricey compared to the quality of the food. I really wanted to like this place but, it was truly a disappointment 😞

I tried the Romaburger, loaded with mozzarella, Parmigiana, bacon, egg, lettuce, tomato, onion—and served with fries. It was a satisfying stack: juicy beef, melty cheese, runny egg, and crisp veggies all working in harmony. Every bite had rich layers—classic and indulgent.

For a satisfying lunch, the Burek (Meat, Cheese & Spinach) is my top pick—flaky, savory, and generously stuffed. I paired it with the popular Caesar Salad ($13.90), crisp romaine tossed in creamy dressing with crunchy croutons. Hearty, well-balanced, and a flavor-packed midday boost!

The cheese melt had bacon and ham hidden in it despite waiter and menu saying there’s no meat in this dish. Disgusting. Also, Instagram account says they serve
halal beef and chicken but no visible halal certificate inside. When calling prior to visit to confirm if food is zabiha halal, lady on the phone was very rude and said “what’s zabiha? We serve all meats including bacon”. Muslims, beware and stay away from this place.

Been here twice, several months between both visits. Good food, nice-ish staff (they smile but they're definitely not hiding their frustration), good atmosphere. I like the interior a lot.

So, food was a little pricey the first time, but now they've added like $8-10 to a lot of items AND a surprise compulsory service charge of 20%, presumably regardless of group size (I went only with another friend), rather than choosing your own gratuity.

Would be nice to be informed ahead *at least*, considering the cheapest entree is like $24 and appetizers are like $17. Take these prices, multiply it by 1.2 and that's the real sum you end up paying. It's a fairly decent additional margin at those amounts, and **concealing** that until you actually get the bill? Disingenuous at best, criminal in other states at worst.

You order like 2-3 of even the more *modestly* priced items and end up paying 90-110 total. I dislike having critical things to say, but I felt genuinely compelled to review after my last dine-in.

Last time I went in the summer, the owner, presumably, came to patrons' tables and kindly asked for good reviews on Google. He extolled to us his love of his business and his desire to really grow it. So, of course everyone in my party did. With the prices now?? I almost feel like an accessory to a crime racket LOL.

Cheesecake Factory is less than 15 minutes down Route 4 from here. You get a big selection including everything you get here at a fraction of the price, no surprises.

Went to the Elmwood park location today for a late lunch early dinner for my son’s early birthday everything was delicious. If you are looking for a chill place with great food this is the place

Vegetarian options: I’m a big salad person and the strawberry salad with fresh mozzarella and feta was out of this world.

After a good training session at the karate dojo next door, my student and I had the great pleasure of partaking of a fabulous luncheon experience at Roma. Let's be clear: I don't even like Italian food, but this luncheon was on a different level. The salad, the entree, the service were superb. Everything was fresh and prepared to perfection; attentive service came with a smile and the coffee was delicious. I would give six stars if it were possible. If I am to eat Italian again, this is where I will always go.

A beautiful spot with outstanding food! Roma Coffee Bar serves mouthwatering dishes, from the formaggi pizza to the spicy pene vodka pasta. The pistachio coffee was rich and smooth, perfect for relaxing on their floral patio. Love the vibe here – it’s energetic but cozy. I’m looking forward to visiting their new Elmwood Park location soon. This place is an absolute treasure.
