Ouvert en 1971 par Giuseppe Lenti, Piazza Romana fut a l'origine un restaurant tres petit pouvant acceuillir selement 32 personnes. Ce dernier a ete joint plus tards par son frere, Sestino Odoardi et par la suite en 1988, son epouse, Maria prennait la releve du restaurant. En moins de cinq ans, le restaurant avail prit de l'expantion et il est devenue un des meilleurs restaurant de fine cuisine italienne. En fait, le Helen Rochester de la gazette l'a range parmi les 20 principaux restaurants. Bien que le restaurant a grandi au file du temps, la famile d"Odoardi continue d'offrir une ambiance chaleureuse qui est typique de la facon traditionnelle italienne.
Les avis sur Piazza Romana montrent une expérience italienne chaleureuse et agréable pour beaucoup, avec des pizzas et des pâtes fraîches et un service attentionné dans l'ensemble, ainsi qu'une atmosphère conviviale et des détails comme une jolie terrasse; mais les retours varient sur le rapport qualité-prix, certains trouvant les prix élevés ou les portions inconsistantes, et plusieurs plats jugés simples ou fades, des plats indisponibles et un service parfois lent ou peu attentif. Certaines soirées ont été décrites comme réussies avec un espace privé et un excellent service, une ambiance familiale et des moments mémorables, tandis que d'autres visites ont laissé une impression plus mitigée avec un service brusque ou des plats qui n'ont pas répondu aux attentes. En somme, Piazza Romana est perçue comme une bonne option italienne à l'ambiance agréable, mais avec une variabilité selon les plats et le service, et des chances de revenir pour vivre une expérience plus cohérente et apprécier l'atmosphère.

DO NOT COME HERE IF U CARE ABOUT GETTING YOUR MONEY'S WORTH
What is up with Italian & Greek restaurants these days? They keep thinking they can just give us some stale bread & unflavoured tomato sauce & price it at 40$. Not taking any of this crap.
The portions are too small considering each plate is 30-50$. When I first took a bite of my linguine primavera I could imagine the cooking process behind it: boil pasta, dump a can of grocery store tomato sauce, sauté some veg & call it a day. I see it being served in a small diner or pop up at a festival, pricing for 10$…. NOT 28$ in a fancy Italian restaurant !! The lemon chicken was fine, pretty basic, accompanied by boiled (or should I say steamed?) vegetables. I took a bite from the chicken & I got Deja vu & then I remembered where I had eaten a similar dish: at my elementary school cafeteria. Not to mention there might have been a little mishap because oops- the deep fried potato was cold- not room temp, but rather FRIDGE cold (they forgot to pop it in the microwave i guess?)
If you are though forced by your own will to dine here I would suggest the shrimp risotto if you're down to pay 38$ for it.
Yeah sure it's fine if you're invited for free supper here- you won't get food poisoning. But if you have to get a dollar out your own wallet: just know you will miss that dollar where you're back home still feeling a bit hungry.

Lovely Italian restaurant with excellent service. However, I was disappointed with the minestrone soup. Instead of the traditional hearty soup containing vegetables, beans, pasta, unfortunately it was a rather bland tomato broth with some cabbage. I didn't want to complain though, because everything else was wonderful.
Overall, I would definitely recommend Piazza Romana. Just skip the soup.
If you're looking for classic Italian dishes, this is the place to eat in the West Island. All the dishes we tried were simple, yet delicious. They are all made with fresh, quality ingredients & the portions are quite generous. Located in the charming Pointe-Claire Village, the restaurant has a cozy vibe & the staff are very welcoming. It's a great place for a family dinner or dinner with friends. It's also a good place to pop into on a weeknight after spending time shopping in the area.
I haven't been there in 4 or 5 years. In Pointe Claire Village. Always a nice atmosphere, fireplace, & in the summer you can take a lovely walk along the lakeshore by the water, & through the village. I had a Romana's pizza & some wine. Traditional, good, italian fare. Was very tasty. Good service, white tablecloths, all this makes a nice change, for a lunch destination.
Hadn't been at Pizza Romana in years. The place has changed to become a fantastic Italian restaurant that serves more than just Pizza. We had Pizza for sentimental reasons & the quality of the past was equally present in the now.

Piazza Romana is the most welcoming home style true Italian food & service & the restaurant is run by the most lovely family. Lovely ambiance, happy & long standing servers who take their craft seriously.. & the food.. what can I say at least as good as Nonna's!
I have been a customer for 25 years & will continue to be for at least another 25!
Keep up the great work.
Me & my boyfriend were very hungry & he has eaten here before & raves about the food. So almost at closing time on a Thursday we were greeted by the hostess & the waiters were very friendly & helpful. The food was extremely fresh & tasty. I highly recommend the Fried Calamari with their house dipping sauce. The romantic atmosphere was great for us,like you are in a hot spot down in old port. Great Italian restaurant in the west island :) GRAZIE!!!
