   I recently had the pleasure of dining at Bar Roma, and it was a delightful experience from start to finish! Our evening began with some fantastic cocktails crafted by the talented mixologist AJ. The Paloma was refreshing, perfectly balanced, and had just the right amount of citrus to brighten our spirits. The Manhattan was equally impressive; rich and smooth, it's clear that AJ has mastered the art of mixology. Each sip was a testament to their skills and creativity. For food, the lamb polpette was a standout. It was juicy and flavorful, paired beautifully with a rich sauce that complemented the meat perfectly. I also highly recommend the oysters; they were fresh and briny, making for a perfect start to our meal. Overall, Bar Roma excels in both drinks and food, and I can’t wait to return for more of AJ's extraordinary cocktails and delicious dishes. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a great dining experience in Toronto!

   Came across this bar on Ossington and it’s an instant favourite, I’ve been going back for almost a month now. Drinks are authentic and taste amazing, with small plate food options that go well for a cocktail setting. Professional and friendly staff, plus they also have a DJ who plays great house sets on weekends!

   Food was okay, nothing great. Cocktails were also okay but could be a bit more balanced. The service wasn't great, the servers aren't that friendly even when we tried to joke with them and be friendly.

   The cocktails are over priced yet they add cheap booze like Jose Cuervo tequila, and nothing spectacular

   Hi Rogelio, We appreciate your feedback. Our cocktail menu is crafted with premium spirits, and when ordering off-menu, like in your case with the Margarita, we customize drinks to match individual preferences, including spirit choices. It sounds like there may have been an opportunity to tailor your drink, but perhaps that option wasn’t explored. If the base tequila used wasn’t to your liking, our bartender would have happily made the change to better suit your preference. Our pricing reflects not just the cocktails but also the overall experience, including our ambiance, service, and craftsmanship. We’d love to welcome you back in the future and create something that perfectly suits your taste! - Team Bar Roma.

   Nice cocktail spot - perfect for dates, or a place to grab a drink before heading out elsewhere. My only thing is they should offer more mocktails - i also didnt love their selection for cocktails/drinks, they werent necessarily my preference. But overall solid spot!

   Sexy little date spot or girls night out bar. Small, intimate, and can make just about any drink. Love the decor inside.

    We went Valentine's Day for dinner and drinks at 7pm and absolutely loved it. We had the booth table at the back corner, in my opinion the best spot in the restaurant, and were super happy with the service, the food, the drinks, and most of all the music and ambiance. The server was very friendly and attentive, always making sure we had everything we needed. The drinks came out right away, and the food was delicious. Very happy, would definitely recommend for a date night out for nice vibes and lounge feel. 10/10
