    Maybe my favorite restaurant in the Columbus area. Wonderful experience every time I dine here. Certainly not your run of the mill downtown chain restaurant. Great neighborhoood restaurant with amazing food and top-notch service. Menu has everything from sandwiches, to pasta, to phenomenal seafood and steaks. Great wine selection, really nice hand crafted cocktails. Always has a great bar crowd, or you can choose a more intimate cozy booth. I'd call this place a hidden gem, but it's always busy, so the word is clearly out.

    Excellent dining experience and definitely plan to enjoy Trattoria Roma again soon. Our table enjoyed the bruschetta, lasagna, carbonara, gluten-free penne, with chicken and bolognese sauce. All excellent! The spinach salad with apples and goat cheese was also very tasty. Our server, Sarah was attentive and provided great customer service.

    We loved everything about this restaurant. We wanted creative, light fare, and this was the perfect place for us. We had the edamame dumplings appetizer and a couple of noodle bowls for entrees; all were delicious and came to our table quickly. The service was fantastic. The server was attentive and answered all of our questions. It was very easy to have a conversation, and the seating was comfortable. We loved this place. I felt very comfortable wearing dress casual attire, but would feel less comfortable in casual attire because it is a very nice setting.

    Very positive experience - my blackened salmon salad was excellent. My daughter had chicken Parmesan, which is her favorite. My mom ordered the special on Monday, which is fried shrimp - she loved it. Service was great and happy hour helped a little with our beverages.
