We met at the bar for drinks before dinner. The beer selection was adequate and the cosmo was acceptable. The martini menu lists all sorts of creations, many of which are served dirty. The basic martini that I had was weaker than I expected. My Bistro Burger with sweet potato fries was medium rare, as ordered. The server was attentive and efficient. Roman Bistro seems as if it could fill a niche on Ardmore Blvd in Forest Hills.
