Depending on what you order, Romeo's fluctuates from 4 to 5 stars and is truly a neighborhood gem! Was there on a Tuesday evening, very quiet, good for us, bad for them. Their entrance and parking is in the rear, lots of room.
The four of us ordered one appetizer and three entrees, which come with soup or salad. As my yelpers warned me about the dinner salad being small and average we ordered soup of the day, white bean and pork, which tasted wonderful but was just tepid, not hot.
Our appetizer as per the menu: (Mushrooms Meteora:
Baked button mushroom caps filled with feta cheese,
capers, artichoke hearts and dill.) Very tasty, a bit tart, lots more shredded artichoke than mushrooms. 3 - 3.5 stars.
My wife had for her entree as per the menu: (Salmon De Provance:
Salmon fillet baked in parchment paper with, pea pods, scallions, red peppers, asparagus, onions in a caper tomato clam sauce). She rated it a 4.5 stars.
Our friends ordered as per the menu: (Seafood Santorini:
Shrimp, calamari, capers, scallions, red peppers, basil pear tomatoes, kalamata olives with feta cheese finish). They had been here many times and always order this dish which I assume they would rate it 4.5 -5 stars.
And for me, a dish I shall never forget or even get tired of, whose flavor and goodness took me by surprise, the wonderous and abundant pork tenderloin, as per the menu:
(Pork Molise
Grilled pork tenderloin, wrapped in bacon, roasted
garlic,horseradish mashed potatoes, honey caramelized
onions and apricot - dark cherry sauce). The potatoes were delightfully creamy, mixed with small potato chunks and a mild garlic/horseradish flavor, accompanied by caramelized onions made with red wine I believe, and a fruity sauce that perfectly complemented this dish. How can dark red ripe cherries cooked with apricots and some wine be any worse than a 5! I give this dish a 5++ stars.
It will be very very difficult not to order this dish when I return but their menu I'm sure hold more treasures. This is truly fine dining.
