Roma Portland offers a beautiful setting, but the service was slow and disorganized, causing delays and rudeness. The food received mixed reviews, from average to outstanding. Some diners were disappointed by the rushed atmosphere and lackluster dishes, while others praised the flavorful offerings and excellent service. Despite these inconsistencies, many customers vowed to return for the delicious food and charming ambiance. Overall, Roma Portland delivers a mixed experience, with areas of improvement needed in service efficiency and food quality to ensure a consistently positive dining experience for all patrons.
