    The restaurant doesn't exist anymore. Very disappointing. For my son's confirmation I reserved a table at Romulus thru Open table. I got to the restaurant with my family and the restaurant wasn't there. Just a sign outside saying For Rent. I had to find something else on a Friday at 9pm (10 people) to avoid ruining the night.I was very embarrassed in front of relatives who had come from all over the States. I have been a loyal user of Open table and I have never been disappointed by the service. This time though it ruined a milestone and a night of family celebration. I would expect a better screening and control by Opentable. The whole point of Open table is making sure I have a reservation. This accident mined my trust.

    I made this reservation through open table ! When we arrived at Romulus it was closed for the week! Passover, Good Friday, Easter Break not sure why, but have to say, my party and myself were very disappointed as we drove 30 minutes to get to the restaurant! Open table should have not allowed this to happen or the restaurant should have blocked that week from being able to make reservations. I am sure this is not the only complaint you will see about that week!!

    Always very consistent and good food. We love the gnocchi, alfredo, amatriciana and veal chop. Caesar salad good and so is the polenta. Try cheesecake for dessert.

    Our food was very good. The dining room is attractive and it's not too noisy. It's convenient to BergenPAC. The veal chop special was excellent.

    We made a last minute decision to go out after New Balance Indoor Nationals. I pulled up my Open Table app searching for venues with an availability nearby. Not only did Romulus have an opening, they were able to accommodate our party of nine! This was a great find as we knew nothing about the area. The staff were incredibly professional and accommodating, the food options were varied and delicious, and the ambiance was very inviting. Carafes of water were kept filled as were our bread baskets. Everything we ordered was presented beautifully and delicious. Highly recommend getting dessert ~ especially the Baked Julius! Would definitely go back if in the area.

    The food here is always special . Northern Italian specialties. Very pleasant room. They need to offer more choices. Best desserts. Big plus. Bring your own wine. Or buy from across the street. Highly recommend

    The food was delicious and the space is lovely but the service was severely lacking. Servers were very nice but not attentive at all (maybe just understaffed (?) but we had to waive them down for help multiple times). We waited almost an hour for our entrees! That meant we didn't have time for dessert .. and it was my birthday (which the restaurant knew)... soooooo disappointing..... had planned to splurge!
