    Food can be better. The goulash over polenta was not very good. Beef was ok, polenta was terrible hard. Branzino was decent but a bit overcooked

    First, we started with a charcuterie board. It was OK, but not to the level of other charcuterie boards that we have experienced other restaurants in other parts the country. My wife ordered fish, which was not good and she sent it back. She then had it replaced with salmon, which was satisfactory less one bone found. I had the shrimp scampi which was effectively boiled shrimp with some butter and olive oil and over linguine noodles. Shrimp scampi should be sautéed and sprinkled with garlic. It should have a nice crust on the shrimp. The waiter was excellent and did everything he could do to accommodate us. We have been to some very excellent Italian restaurants and this restaurant Owner should visit some of the other more established Italian restaurants to improve his menu and food quality.

    What an amazing place!! The ambience was top notch and the service was outstanding. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming. Everyone loved their meals and the prices were very reasonable! If I lived local this would be one of my “go-to” locations.

    The ambiance of this restaurant is simply fantastic! The cozy atmosphere, soft lighting, and elegant decor create the perfect setting for any special occasion. This is our family's favorite restaurant for birthday celebrations. Villa Romana exceeds our expectations and creates a memorable experience every time. You do not often find a place where every element comes together so perfectly. The food here is absolutely delicious! Every dish we tried was bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. Whether you choose from the Italian or Romanian menu, they utilize only the freshest ingredients. We highly recommend Villa Romana in Hollywood to everyone!!

    We didn't have enough of the awesome food at this restaurant so we came back and tried several more dishes. Everything was excellent! I had the eggplant parmigian which was excellent, and for desert I had the Romanian sweet called Papanasi. Wow! It was soooo good! The cocktails were also very good.
