Roma

Have been eyeing this place for a year or so now after seeing it on several lists and finally got the chance to check it out! We decided to go last minute and it was relatively early so I decided not to place a reservation.
We parked them in the rice village garage since it is a short walk and free for two hours. Upon walking through the front door it struck me how intimate the space is.
The fact that the restaurant is inside of a house made the meal taste like it was homemade with a lot of love.
The staff were all incredibly warm and friendly from the second we walked through the door.
The front room was quite busy with a moderate noise level so we were offered a quieter table for two in the back. Our server was awesome, he helped make some suggestions for our wine based off of our preferences and we enjoyed his recommendations.
We started with a Cesar salad which tasted very fresh and had the perfect ratio of delicious Caesar dressing to salad.
Our entrees came out perfectly timed after we finished our salads.
Both of the entrees were incredible.
Very rich and flavorful and it was incredibly obvious that they were prepared with a lot of care and expertise. The food here is incredible and the homey ambiance as well as the next-level care and customer service from every single staff member made eating here a very enjoyable and memorable experience.
I cannot wait to return and I cannot recommend trying this place out enough.

10/10 recommend! Amazing food and service.
Top tier. We had Arancini and a Caesar salad for starters.
The Arancini was absolutely delicious.
Cooked perfectly.
No complaints for the Caesar salad either. They serve bread and oil also- so good. For the mains we had cacio e Pepe and Zuppa di Mare.
My Cacio e Pepe was so flavorful- the fettuccini was cooked perfect and the pecorino and pepper was YUM.
The table side service for the dish was very fun.
My friend had the soup dish - she spoke highly of the soup base and all of the seafood in it. As wonderful as the food was, our service was just as good.
He gave great recommendations and took very good care of the table.
I am ashamed I can’t remember his name but he was fantastic. From start to finish, this place was great.
Go visit here if you are in the area.
If I’m ever back in Houston, Roma will be on my list.
