We came in with a party of 5. Very important number here. They told us a 45 minute wait, which is fine I understand restaurants get busy. However when we arrive at our table is set as a set for 4🤨 we sat down, but there wasn't space to fit. We asked the waiter if we could move, he goes to the hostess, they're having conversation and she shakes her head no. He comes back and offers us an extra chair, but that's all. There are only 4 place settings while the waiter takes our drink/appetizer orderd and for the next 30 minutes after they arrive. I had to ask for a place setting, feeling very awkward, out of place, and separate from my group. The whole experience put a very sour taste in my mouth. Maybe consider dining somewhere else. Also one of our friends ordered the pesto and had to salt and pepper heavily, as it was "extremely bland".

My husband and I placed a pick up order we got the spaghetti, chicken parmigiana and calamari. We decided to try the place since it had really good reviews and we wanted to try something different. We both felt it lacked seasoning it was very plain so we personally wouldn't go back.
While the name may imply a pretentious Italian restaurant, the service is friendly and the food is delectable. Although the prices match those of other places, and may be a dollar or so higher than the prevalent chains, someone figured out that the portions can be made larger with that extra dollar, and end up being much more satisfying. We started with the Mozzarella Garlic Bread, expecting 4 or 6 small pieces, but were greeted with what appeared to be a whole loaf of bread that could have been a meal in itself. The tortellini special was of notable good flavor.

Food was not fresh at all. The fish smelled rotten and the service was extremely slow.

This is my first time in Texas, and some friends suggested we eat Roman Cucina. It was a party of fifteen. The owner is super friendly as well as the waiter and waitresses. Excellent customer service and the food was absolutely delicious. I had the lasagna bolagnese and it was hands down the best I've eaten. The portion is well worth the price. Two can share a meal and be plenty full. Roman Cucina is worthy of five stars all day long.
Vegetarian options: Eggplant Parmesan was the bomb!! ?

Great food and great service. Got to go to for sure if you haven't tried it.
One of our favorite places for takeout. The restaurant is quite busy but they are very quick with takeouts.
Kids love the eggplant Parmesan.

We always look forward to the freshly baked bread and crisp salad that accompany every entrée. It’s almost impossible to resist ordering the Italian Margarita—it’s a must-have every time we visit! They offer unique nightly specials, along with classic Italian dishes that never disappoint. The wait staff is warm, knowledgeable, and efficient, making every dining experience a pleasure. Overall, it's a perfect cozy, family-owned restaurant.

It's loud. But I have the feeling they are aiming for a certain French star.
Great just great. Not to oily or drowned in sauces. Very refined.
