Everything was amazing it was just freezing in there and the floor above the basement had loud slamming noises for about 10 minutes straight to the point I thought the floor was about to fall through. However our waiter was amazing and thoughtful, food was delicious as well as drinks and they gave us complimentary champagne and extra things for our anniversary. Heads up there's only one bathroom which is on the top floor behind the main bar

It was really good. The drink menu was good. You can tell the pasta is handmade and it was so good. The calamari and ceased salad were really good. Espically the fried peppers in the calamari. Mmmmmm

Our first time at Bistro Romano and won't be our last. Romantic, quiet and dark with a piano playing softly in the distance. Service is great and food is delicious, especially the Caesar salad. Lobster ravioli was lightly sauced, with plenty of lobster and tender pasta. My partner ordered the strip steak, which he said was ok but I thought it was pretty good. Warm olives, a first for me, was good but more than I could eat by myself. I'd like to try other options on the menu but Caesar salad will be on repeat.

A quaint, romantic Italian spot nestled in society hill with a lively and helpful bartender that serves great Italian dishes. We got scored some bar seats on a Friday night and enjoyed the live piano playing and the phils. The focaccia bread was phenomenal; we split a pasta dish (generous sharing sizes) and grabbed 2 mains. We were not disappointed with any of our selections. The bartender made a tasty old fashion, and the wine selection checked my boxes. Overall, great spot- we will be back again.

The wine cellar experience was wonderful. Service and the menu and food and wine quality were all a 10. Expensive but for a special occasion I definitely recommend

Beautiful, the food & service will not disappoint. My partner & I didn't care for the desert but no complaints otherwise. The best Bolognese I had the pleasure of experiencing, the meat melts in your mouth!

As usual, the service was spot on and the food amazing! Keesion was attentive but not intrusive and took excellent care of our party. The drinks were great. Sean, the bar manager, ensured the guests were happy and the drinks were tasty. My favorite restaurant in the Headhouse neighborhood!

Thank you Bistro as your my FAVORITE Authentic Italian Restaurant and I appreciate you. Thank you MIKE for the lovely taste of pasta with truffle. I met Jose the bartender who has SO MUCH passion. Our server Kishor was lovely too. He is so motivated to provide service excellence it truly made me and my friend feel welcomed. I met him originally 5 years ago and he has grown so much and is so passionate and its reassuring. Mike -the owner continues to hire and RETAIN quality staff. The young man who followed up to pick up plates and glasses (AA male w/ locs) was so proud to be on staff. He has been there 1 year and he did feel that he was supported as a member of the team. He spoke highly about the camaraderie and support when he was hurt and unable to work. Bistro has and will always be #1 in excellence in service delivery, service excellence, and continuity in staff quality.
