Franc at the host table was exceptional at making our trip to Montreal & this restaurant memorable. We came from Toronto to celebrate my sisters birthday & this restaurant was truly the highlight. From the food to the atmosphere, Romies Montreal is our new favourite restaurant! TIP: you MUST get the blackout cake, soooo good!
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.
Personally I found this place pretty mid. It's a place to go for the vibes & appetizers than the actual food. The fried zucchini was delicious! I would go back anytime for that. Everything else was super meh. The pasta was actually not that great. There was so much cheese that it was a bit disgusting to eat & the flavours were nothing special. Very basic. I know the pasta has gone very viral & I had very high hopes but overall it was super disappointing. Any influencer/content creator that pushed this pasta forward has definitely lost all credibility. Overall I would only go back to enjoy the fried zucchini & grab food+dessert elsewhere. You can buy a whole cake for the price you pay for a slice of cake…which again is nothing special or worth paying for.
I have read some mixed reviews prior coming to Romies but I still wanted to give it a try during my recent visit to Montréal. Overall I like their food but there were some improvements I would like to suggest.
They didn't really have a big menu, & if they have printed on the menu I would have expected they were available to order. When I tried to order the steamed clams main dish, our server told us it was not available. & that's the only thing they didn't have on that day. I understand but also disappointed, why couldn't they told us right from the beginning? Rather than spending 15 minutes deciding what to order & then only to figure out it's not available.
The food tasted good in general but some of the items were not hot enough in my opinion. The fried zucchini was just warm but not hot. & the NY striploin dish, the side dish hashbrown also just warm but I wish it could be more hot & crispy.
The Brooklyn blackout cake looked good but I actually enjoyed their butter pecan sundae more.
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!
Absolutely recommend!!!!! Herews what you should get if you are two people with a big appetite hehe ;)
Starter : Brutus salad & some fried zucchini with an insane dip!!!
If you like crudo, my boyfriend really liked it however i do not eat raw !
Mains :
PASTA ALLA ZONZZONA INSANE INSANE !! Really my favorite pasta in mtl !!!
We have had the steak, honestly its not the best considering the price but its alright…
We also tried the beef burger; also not too bad but nothing crazy…
NOW THE BEST THING YOULL HAVE IS THEIR CHOCOLATE CAKE SLICE.
Youre welcome besties
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
We had high expectations for Romies considering how much we love its team's other restaurant, Arthurs, but unfortunately they were not met on this evening.
On the positive side, the food was phenomenal (especially the burger, pasta, & blackout cake), & they have cultivated a really cool vibe through the design, open kitchen, bar, etc.
That said, what really let us down was the service. From the hop, our server was rude, dismissive, & barely checked in. Then, he brought the wrong bottle of wine to our table, which we politely corrected, & then he proceeded to place that $100 bottle on my friend's bill (perhaps hoping she would not notice?). Also, we were there for my birthday & to kick off the night's celebrations (which was noted on the reservation), & there was absolutely no acknowledgement - not even placing a candle in the slice of cake I ordered. Don't get me wrong, we were not expecting to be catered to by any means, but being a bit more welcoming overall would have gone a long way.
