Romies receives polarized feedback, with many patrons praising its vibrant, chic atmosphere, exceptional service from specific staff members, and standout dishes like the fried zucchini, pasta alla zozzona, and chocolate cake. While frequent visitors describe it as a top-tier destination for cocktails and social gatherings, others feel the menu is somewhat basic for the price point, pointing to inconsistencies in food quality, portion sizes, and service efficiency. Experience seems to vary depending on the occasion, as private events occasionally result in booking cancellations or limited menu variety, and some diners find the high cost difficult to justify given the overall value. Despite these mixed reports regarding pricing and occasional service lapses, many diners consider the restaurant a must-visit spot in Montreal and appreciate the beautiful design and inviting terrace.
What a beautiful restaurant. The ambiance is so nice, the food is delicious, & the service is great. Such a great place for a date night or a girls night, in the heart of the city. The chocolate cake is literally the best cake I've ever eaten in my life.
Ive been to Romies a few times & it's basically a sure bet. The food is consistently good, the service is always friendly & the atmosphere is top (indoor & outdoor) - great playlist!
Just like anywhere else, I like some dishes more than others, but I never had an actual bad experience. I go there for the fried zucchini, their french fries & the blackout chocolate cake (I'm really not a dessert person & never order it when I eat out, but this cake is perfectly moist, rich but not overly sweet, decadent but also light in some weird way). Anything else I order is just bonus!
I went back last night for a date night for our anniversary & the staff went above & beyond to make the experience memorable. The service was impeccable, everyone was so kind, friendly & so accommodating with our baby & finding a table with enough space for our stroller (yes, we brought the baby on date night).
10/10, no notes.
I liked the vibes here it's a cute restaurant. We originally wanted to try the burger because that's what was recommended to us but apparently the waitress said they were sold out, so we ended up trying a few other things on the menu. The food was honestly mid I've definitely had better, but the chocolate cake completely saved the experience because wow… it was the star of the whole show. So goodddd & 100% the one thing I'd come back for.

We were a group of 15 people, the food was really good, we had the group menu with tons of options. The atmosphere was good, its warm & a little bit dark.
The desserts that we had (cheese cake & chocolate cake) were not that good, they tasted like box cakes.
Also, some of our group members were having issues getting additional drinks, the waiter was not paying attention if we needed more drinks or bread.
Overall good but just to go one time.
The food was good & the space is very nice. I had the Courgette Frites which were excellent, definitely recommend. Also tried the pasta alla zozzano which was good but expensive for a plate of pasta ($34) with mostly sauce, cheese & bits of bacon. The chocolate cake is decadent & well worth it.
Service was a bit slow especially for our cocktails.
Attentive & friendly staff. Food was very good & the plating was very nice.
Shared five appetizers between four people & then had the steak & pasta as a main meal. Walked out stuffed.
The cocktails were nice. bees nees is a must try! Chocolate cake & a coffe were a perfect ending to our meal.
Would definitely go back!
Wanted to like this place, but definitely overrated. They don't know how to cook a steak at all. The burger was also so salty & greasy that it fell apart. The pasta that everyone gets is also a gimmick. Fried zucchini is ok, but the serving you get is smaller than what you see online. Chocolate cake was the best thing on the menu. Good service, tho would't recommend.
Worth the hype. First of all-my group was late haha & without a thought they held our table for us for 15 mins on a busy Wednesday night. So thank you for that kindness. We got the beef tartare & focaccia as starters. The tartare was good but different (came atop a bland potato salad) & the focaccia was delicious. Most of my group got their famous pasta & raved about it. The grilled branzino was an underrated yet excellent dish. & the burger. My gosh- out of this world. & comes with their house ceaser salad which was so yummy & had potato chips instead of croutons. Although the dressing wasn't anchovy-ee enough for my taste. We also got all 3 desserts & all were 10/10 but the chocolate cake & blueberry sundaes are a must!! All in all a great meal in a cool trendy atmosphere
