My girlfriend and I came here one night for a casual dinner after work. It was recommended to us by several people, so we finally decided to give it a shot. I have to say it was just amazing. The zucchini were crisp and delicious and the homemade sauce that came with it was really really good. They gave us complimentary seasoned olives and bruschetta which were both pretty adictive. My girlfriends salad had fried scallops on them and they were amazing, the dressing was light and refreshing. But I have to say the veal was out of this world, super tender and oozing with flavour. My girlfriends chicken was spicy but so good she could have had seconds. I will definitely be back, our server was super friendly and recommended a really nice bottle of wine that you can't find at the LCBO which was a nice change. Perfect 10 for La Roma!

Even though this is a locally "highly rated" italian restaurant, I gotta say it's on my black list after the first time dining in there. The food is very very slow and expensive and the seafood on top of the linguini was like the size of green peas (it says prawn on the menu). BTW the service was horrible, I am not sure if it was due to the party that was attending in the upper level or just normal cause. We waited 20 minutes to be seated when the table was right beside the doorway and nobody touched it for the whole waiting time, around another 20 minutes til the server actually comes around to order for us when both of them were chatting at the bar. I would say it's definately not worth the price to go there and have a formal dinner unless you have extremely good temper or you would go home smashing chinas.

The menu at La Roma changes based on what is available from local farmers, making it seasonal – of course – but also fresh and inventive. Come and start with shrimp or deep-fried lake smelts with oregano. They've got a dozen different pastas as well as six delicious variations on veal, including the standout veal scaloppine with cremini mushrooms. The corkage fee here is $20, but is waived on Thursdays.
