Summary Review: 4.5 stars (out of 5)
Detailed Review:
Crust: The pizza at Roma Italian Restaurant has a New York style crust with a nice crispy texture and medium thickness. The crust is very blackened underneath, which suggests my pizza was slightly overbaked, but only slightly. Score: 9/10
Sauce: This pizza has plenty of sauce, which is odd for New York style pizzas. The sauce is slightly overspiced, but only slightly. Score: 9/10
Cheese: This pizza comes with a nice layer of yummy, stringy cheese. The cheese appears in adequate quantity and doesn't produce a lot of grease. Perfecto! Score: 10/10
Toppings: The Italian sausage is lightly spiced and appears in large yummy chunks. The pepperoni is unremarkable. The Canadian bacon tastes like fresh city ham, as it should. All toppings appear in adequate quantity. Score: 9/10
Overall Taste: The spices in the sauce slightly overpower the other flavors on this pizza, but overall everything works together pretty well. Score: 8.5/10
Pizza Appearance: The pizza's appearance is a little bare around the edges, especially for a 3 topping pizza.
Dining Atmosphere: Roma has a nice casual dining atmosphere with pleasant music, lighting, and a touch of class. I enjoyed eating here.
Customer Service: I really enjoyed the service; it was quick and attentive.
Monetary Value: above average quantity plus above average price equals average value.
The Final Judgment:
I had some tasty pizza and an enjoyable dining experience at Roma. This pizza is some slightly better toppings and a slightly better sauce away from being elite. Score: 88/100
