We are BIG fans of Romaines .. the renovations are beautiful .. welcoming and very nice trendy .. waiting area is awesome!!!! FOOD.. another story .. very disappointed... starters .. calamari was full of batter .. why ruin a good a good thing ... it Used to be amazing Next salad .. where is the Caesar that we loved .. were we the only ones who loved this? Entrees.. oh boy! The shrimp now has a funky red sauce ..And the haddock was very dry and .. might be better as a fish and chip Overall .. Romaines is no longer a fine dining restaurant it is more of a bar and you should go there expecting a burger or lighter fare ..it's something the area might need but you should not be paying the price of the older Romaines and receiving a lesser menu We never minded spending a larger amount for dinner and a great bottle of wine when the food equaled what we paid .. but now I will still be a fan of Romaines but know that I should keep my food choices to the burger or fish tacos They changed the look and the menu but they forgot to change the name .. not Romaines anymore

you should be able to book a reservation for a booth and get a booth when you get there. Arturo's does this and that's why we go there now...

I would try this restaurant again because I got a bar plate hamburger which was not anything special but also not a full entree...my wife enjoyed her steak tip entree and desert creme brulee. I would try it one more time because overall I enjoyed my dinner experience.

Great food. Not sure why this place is never busy. We barely ever have to make a reservation. Service can be a little slow, and they often run out of my favorite martini.
