Les critiques sur Romies soulignent une ambiance chaleureuse et une terrasse très prisée, avec des soirs animés et un cadre qui séduit pour un dîner entre amis ou en amoureux; le service est globalement apprécié quand il est efficace et attentif, mais des expériences isolées évoquent lenteur, erreurs de service ou manque d’attention. Côté cuisine, les temps forts reviennent souvent: la focaccia maison et les courgettes frites sont décrites comme délicieuses, le crudo et les plats de pâtes, notamment la pasta alla zozzona, sont fréquemment appréciés, et le steak ou le burger obtiennent aussi des retours très positifs. Les desserts font l’unanimité chez certains convives, avec des gâteaux au chocolat ou des desserts créatifs comme le beach pie et le sundae, ce qui pousse certains à revenir surtout pour le dessert. Le rapport qualité-prix est parfois contesté, plusieurs avis estimant les portions petites ou les plats trop chers pour ce qui est servi, et quelques critiques notent que certaines préparations manquent de chaleur ou de sel. L’expérience peut aussi varier selon le moment et l’achalandage, mais nombre d’ensembles parlent d’une expérience globale mémorable, d’un lieu qui mérite le détour dans le Vieux Montréal et qui peut devenir un rendez-vous récurrent selon les envies, surtout pour profiter de la terrasse et des cocktails bien travaillés.
Superbe expérience chez Romies hier soir en famille. Tout était excellent du début à la fin : cocktails, vin, crudo & entrée, puis le poisson & le steak parfaitement cuits & pleins de saveur. Les portions sont généreuses & parfaites à partager. Mention spéciale aussi à l'extrême gentillesse des serveurs, qui ont rendu la soirée encore plus agréable. On y retournera sans hésiter !
Overall a great experience, the service was pleasant, Adam took good care of us & helped with some suggestions as well. The room had a very nice warm atmosphere & the food was great. I would highlight the fried zucchini & the steak. I've had better caesar's & fries but everything was yummy. You could tell the staff enjoyed providing a pleasant evening & they did a great job at doing so.

We dined here on a Sunday evening, & the ambiance alone is everything. The restaurant is absolutely beautiful, but it doesn't stop there. Every dish we ordered was incredibly flavorful & perfectly balanced, we never thought zucchini chips could be that good! Our steaks were cooked to perfection, & the table was filled with constant'mmm's' & approving head nods all night long. We couldn't have been more satisfied with the entire experience.
Highly recommend dining here. We'd gladly drive from Toronto to Montreal just to enjoy this meal again!
Ce fût ma troisième visite, au Romies. & pour une troisième fois, nous avons été plus que comblés. Les portions sont généreuses, autant pour les entrées que pour les plats principaux. Le steak-frites était absolument délicieux; présentant la cuisson tel que demandé. L'ambiance décontractée mais raffinée & intime permet de passer un très bon moment. Je ne peux que recommander ce resto; parfaitement situé dans le Vieux-Montréal. & les martinis sont merveilleux !
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.

I'm not sure how this place get bad reviews. Probably people went to this place on a busy evening? I went here early like one of the first customers on Tuesday evening & I have the best time ever in a restaurant in Montreal!
The service is superb & the food is delish! Every dishes that I order are tasty. The only negative thing is that I order the fried zucchini & beef tartare & both have cream-cheese? So it doesn't balance each other. I have should have ordered something refreshing instead. But both dishes are so good especially the fried zucchini.
I also like the clam dish & the steak. Everything was cooked on point. The place is also beautiful in the right amount of light. If i had a restaurant, this would be the kind that I would have. Thank you romies team! You really made my night! ❤?
Busy yet chill vibes. Low lights atmosphere. They have bocci ball in the back, the toilets are outside of the restaurant which is a little odd but it works. Their drinks were good. Price point is high but the quality matches it. The rib eye steak was perfectly cooked & seasoned. The fries were made in house & tasty. The ceasar salad was okay. I would go with another options in the future, instead of salad.
The food is excellent ==> Kiss for the Chef!
The service was good ==> Great service, with a pinch of'argh! another boomer couple! why am I wasting my life here!'.
Overall vibe ==> 'Cheesy-boomer-mid-90's-decor-impression-of-high-end-USA-male-tourist-customers'
The restaurant is situated at the complete west end of Old-Montreal touristy sector & located on the ground floor of what seem to be an office building (i.e: the restaurant restrooms are located past the main'mid-90's pinky-beige-stone-washed' entrance hall of the said office building).
The decor (of the restaurant + main building hall for restrooms) is somewhat dated to the mid-90's'trying-for-high-end-customers' restaurant (i.e.: somewhat'boomer-cheesy' in my opinion). I don't think that's what the restaurant is going for ultimately; the staff is young & dressed'chilled'. As said before, the service was good.
Unfortunately, the menu & the decor is giving -'I'm a 55ish+ male tourist from the United-State-of-America travelling outside my country for the 1st time & wanting to impress my date / cheat-mate with an IMPRESSION of an'elegant-diner-hotel-favor' combo; I am scared of food experiences & therefore I want a menu that I can relate too'- vibe. (ie: burger / pork-ribs / steak / pasta...)
I was a bit disappointed myself on the menu choices, since I wanted the'palourdes' as shown on the web-menu; that choice was not available at the restaurant on Sunday...I should have called - that's my bad.
For context, I did reserve my table for 5:30PM on a Sunday since my guest & I were expected somewhere else at 19:00...
However, that doesn't change my opinion on the overall'vibe' of the restaurant.
I recommend for the food...the rest of what you are going for is up to you!!!
The female hostess was very accomplished & super nice. The male host with the patchy moustache & greasy hair was terrible & his energy was awful, ruined the experience completely from just one interaction. The steak is good, the burger is dry & uninspired, you'd get a better one next door at five guys. I wouldn't go there for a celebration. Overall okay definitely not a must try if you like American style bistros with a fancy twist id just go to Deville, better food, service & vibes. Overall 3.5 stars.

It feels like a place you would with your coworkers who typically don't eat out too much, not a place you go out with you foodie friends. There's 7 items for main course: 2 steaks, ribs, burger, salmon & clams. Pretty basic bistro menu, if you ask me.
Decor was nice & cocktails were done right, so all is not lost.
Anyways I regretfully spent 250$ there, while I could have gone to much nicer places for that price.
Had dinner last night at Romies, & the food is just amazing. Everyone loved it. The crudo branzino app was out of this world. & the rib eye steak was tops. My buddy who normally only eats filet mignon, tried some of my rib eye & said it was the best steak he's ever had. Romies officially converted him lol.
This is what the montreal food scene has become...a popularity contest with overpriced mediocre food. Steak was tough, burger was raw, filet mignon was very good, cherry pie was tasteless but the ambience was nice. Wine list was a joke especially considering the price of their food. Go there for a drink but not for their food or wine choices.
