We celebrated a birthday dinner at Roma and it was fantastic! The service was top notch, the drinks were top notch, and the food was out of this world! It’s so sweet that this is a family owned authentic Italian restaurant.
Date with the wife. Wonderful place to eat and the owners wife makes all the dessert,and the food was wonderful!!
The dinner was as authentic of an Italian meal as I've had outside of Italy!!!
Felt like i was back in Italy. Food was like nona would make. Must try the motger in law recipe for tierra misu Molto bene!
Wonderful service and freshly made pasta. They are currently in process of getting their license to serve liquor - now they only have beer and wine. I look forward to a full bar being available. I really enjoy the restaurant. It is a jewel here in Carmel.
Wanted to ring in the New Year with dinner at Roma Ristorante! We made the right decision. The food was excellent coupled with impeccable service. It was a night to remember thanks to the Chef and staff. Everyone's food was prepared to perfection and we topped it off with the chocolate covered lemon Panna Cotta for desert. Absolutely delicious.
Needed better cutting utensils such as a steak knife to cut the lamb off the bone. My lamb was uncooked. Overall our dining experience was very good.
My wife and I love the level of attention from the owners and staff, with every meal a highlight and delicious dining experience. Truly the best Italian food around, with a great wine selection and fantastic ambience. Not to be missed!
Great food, great service and a nice atmosphere. We enjoyed our dinner and will definitely be back. It is a hidden gem!
Took my wife to Roma for her birthday. We both enjoyed the experience. Easy to social distance here. The Roma staff have placed tables more than 6 feet away from each other for a nice private (and safe) experience. The food and drink were excellent. One of my more enjoyable meals in quite awhile. Roma is one of a few excellent Italian restaurants in the Carmel area.
Max was an excellent watering the food was amazing. We've lived all over the country and I definitely had the best gnocchi I've ever eaten at Roma tonight. A great experience from beginning to end.
Small intimate restaurant, limited menu but everything we had was great.
Awesome meal and even better service!
Roma’s is a wonderful place. I ‘ve celebrated my husband’s last two birthdays at Roma’s . The food and service is always outstanding. John was our server both times. He’s excellent.
Absolutely outstanding experience. Great food, great service and great wine. The Pannacotta desert was amazing. This is a real gem!
Authentic Italian in every way. Superlative after superlative.
Side dishes were cold. Mashed potatoes not only cold but dry and flavorless. Steak was cooked well but the Gorgonzola sauce was basically a side of cold salad dressing to dip the steak in.
Loved the whole experience and the fact that it was family owned. Food was great, service was exceptional! The thank you note from the chef was such a nice touch!
Very friendly and excellent homemade pasta! This is one of our favorite places to dine.
It is wonderful to go to a restaurant and know what ever you choose will be delicious. The restaurant also is observing all the safety protocols. We will only eat out at 2 restaurants in Indianapolis. This is our new favorite!
We love this restaurant because the menu is not cookie cutter and all of the food is authentic to Italy. This visit we had the bolognese with pappardelle pasta and the lollipop lamb chops and both were delicious! For dessert, we had chocolate mousse and pana cotta. The pana cotta was recommended by our server John and it was absolutely delicious! John, our server, has been our server on several occasions in the past and he is always excellent! Thank you to all for a very enjoyable evening out.
Doing a nice job with all the Covid restrictions. Good and service was excellent and always!
Absolutely amazing. Favorite restaurant hands down. Not only is the food excellent, but the customer experience is unmatched.
This restaurant was recommended by a good friend. We went with friends and completely enjoyed the food and service.
It has the feel of a true Roman cafe.
Everything was delightful! Our food was delicious and very specially prepared! They make their own pasta and sauces fresh every day and our meals were excellent! Service was great and very attentive! Blessed to have found this little place! We’ll be back! 😁
Roma is a fantastic restaurant. Great food and service.
Wait staff was exceptional from the hostess stand to paying the bill. Service was attentive and kind, yet not hovering or pushy. We felt comfortable taking our time with the experience and having the owner/chef of this authentic Italian family restaurant was nice. We appreciated the smaller menu with quality selections. The wine list was also pretty thorough for a small venue. Ambience and lighting was perfect. Will definitely return to try other entrees.
An absolutely great experience! Very friendly staff and owners who made a point to come speak to us personally to make sure we were enjoying the meal. The food was extremely good as well! We will definitely be back many times.
What a fantastic experience!!!!! Loved everything about this place
Amazing! A hidden gem . The chef/owner stopped by the table!

Great homemade Italian meal.
The wait staff was incredibly attentive and personable. And the food could not have been better. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
Hands down, best pasta I've ever had. Friendly staff, great ambiance, and the food is simply amazing. Will absolutely be back!
This a little gem in Carmel. Everything from the level of service to the attention to details was perfect. The owner introduced herself and said to let her know if there was anything we needed. Our waiter was knowledgeable and attentive. The food was amazing - all homemade and fresh - great flavors. Would highly recommend this.
Authentic Italian. Delicious food. Very customer focused staff. Will definitely be back!
