The Roma is a throwback, classic American Italian restaurant located in the heart of the West End on Congress St, that pays tribute to the great American Italian restaurants of decades past. The Roma will serve classic Italian-American fare in a relaxed and comfortable dining room. Love for comfort food.

    Once you find a parking spot in their lot or on the street…you can relax and enjoy an authentic Italian meal. We enjoyed the pork chop dinner and the eggplant parmigiana…very yummy…and took leftovers for lunch tomorrow. Very cozy vibe and very attentive service. Nice wine/beer/cocktail offerings and good value all around. We will return!

    We had a great experience at Roma Cafe! The focaccia bread & rigatoni carbonara were our favorites, so delicious! The service was great and the overall vibe of the restaurant was lovely.

    Delicious traditional Italian fare in a cozy setting. A slice of the "Old Portland" experience. Fantastic service and the food is delicious.

    There's no question why this restaurant has such amazing staying power over the course of many decades. The pastas and sauces are obviously fresh as soon as they hit your mouth. The service is friendly and attentive without being overbearing. The price is commensurate with other restaurants in the rest of the city. Don't pass up this somewhat hidden gem.
