It’s always a special treat to have dinner at Cafe Roma. We are always greeted warmly by staff. The waitstaff are friendly and accommodating. We’ve never had to wait long for our food and each dish is beautifully presented, delicious and hot. It’s a pleasure to have dinner there. Marco and Saro have maintained the tradition that their parents began.

Our server, Nikki, was very knowledgeable, engaging and professional (a complex balance which is quite rare). The menu and wine list are both sufficiently comprehensive to offer excellent options. Plate presentation, flavors and textures were excellent and pacing absolutely perfect for a relaxed dining experience. This is a worthy favorite in Paso Robles and highly recommended.

Food is good, not outstanding. Had to send one plate back, which was taken off the bill without any questions. Service good but again nothing exceptional. Good meal for a good price,.
