Romies est plus qu'un simple restaurant ; c'est une destination où se créent des souvenirs, où les relations sont entretenues et où un sentiment d'appartenance est cultivé.
Rejoignez-nous alors que nous vous invitons à vivre une expérience qui célèbre la tradition et embrasse l'enthousiasme de la nouveauté.
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.
It's funny I kept hearing mixed reviews about this place & TikTok kept pushing it on me, but I'm really glad I came here spontaneously with my girlfriends. I actually really enjoyed the experience! The venue is beautiful & open-air, super chill vibes. I didn't order food, but my friend did, & my drinks were solid. Bartenders were nice too. Definitely coming back to try the food next time.
Had a incredible time at Romie's. The place is looking incredible, both indoor & outdoor sitting areas are great. We've received a very nice service although we took the longest of time making some choices about drinks & food. They made some recommendations of a few items to share, every single one of them were delicious. I really enjoyed the cocktail & wine as well. Will be back!

It was the second time that I had the pleasure to share a meal with friends at Romies last night. Both times were impeccable. Cocktails are great & well balanced, wine list is great & the food is just amazing - it's even difficult to make choices. The ingredients are fresh & everything is delicious. Bonus points for the service (& the music !). Excited to go back again & enjoy the beautiful terrasse : )
The food looked great but fell short on taste, with flavors that were too sweet & didn't match the high cost (very very pricey). Presentation seemed to take priority over flavor. Service was slow & inconsistent; while the waitress was helpful, she also seemed impatient at times. The dining area was very noisy, with echoes making conversation difficult. Staff didn't appear particularly enthusiastic, which impacted the overall vibe. I wouldn't return.
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!!!
Service was slow & communication was poor from start to finish. We weren't told mains wouldn't come until after the appetizer, so we sat waiting. The server recommended an extra dish, made it sound like a bonus, then charged us for it. The food was decent, but the surprise charge & overall experience were disappointing.
the burger was absolutely delicious, fries were good but unfortunately way too many tiny pieces. the ribs were also good, but between the two the burger easily takes it.
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.

10/10 meal. Server was amazing & all of the food was incredible. Very memorable restaurant. Don't forget to order the beach pie. Definitely the best dessert I've had in a long time. One of the best restaurants I've eaten at this year. Can't recommend it enough.
I went to Romies on a Monday night for a birthday dinner, & I was honestly surprised to see the place completely full at the beginning of the week! 🎉 The atmosphere was great, & the service was very good, friendly & attentive. ✨ We had a multi-course sharing menu for the occasion, so I got to taste everything. After the meal, I totally understood why the restaurant was packed even on a Monday! The food is excellent : the starters were fresh & flavorful, & the main dishes were absolutely delicious. 🍽? I highly recommend Romies & will definitely be coming back!

Je suis allée chez Romies un lundi soir pour un souper d'anniversaire, & j'ai été vraiment surprise de voir le restaurant rempli en début de semaine ! 🎉 L'ambiance était très agréable & le service très bon, attentionné & chaleureux. ✨ Comme c'était un menu à partager pour l'occasion, on a eu droit à plusieurs services, & j'ai pu tout goûter. Après avoir mangé, j'ai compris pourquoi c'était plein même un lundi ! La nourriture est excellente : les entrées sont savoureuses & les plats principaux délicieux. 🍽? Je recommande ce restaurant & j'y reviendrai sans aucun doute !
