DI ROMA Cucina, Torrance CA

Whenever visiting family in California, dinner at DI ROMAs is always on my request list. Personal favorites include the lamb chops (my mom's), gyros (my aunt and uncle's) and the Branzino (mine). The King Mushroom appetizer is always a big hit as well as the gyro appetizer (for those of us who don't order it as their main). Good-size portions and more importantly, everything is fresh and delicious.

Great place to meet friends and business associates.

The absolute most authentic Italian food I have had in the states! Definitely reminiscent of when I visited Italy

My favorite authentic italian place with some hints of other mediterranean goods. Can't miss here.

Food tasted amazing! The young gentlemen serving us to was very nice, however the plating might need some work (maybe a smaller plate will make the dish look better) but nonetheless I walked out stuffed and pleased!

Today was our first experience here. The atmosphere great clean and fresh. The service was good.the calamari was very tasty and the tiramisu was wonderful. We had a Caesar salad that could’ve had a little more dressing, but it was good.then we ordered the filet mignon cheesesteak sandwich, which was gigantic but unfortunately the bun was burnt. Really burnt so we couldn’t eat it. I asked the waiter to just bring me another bun not toasted so I could maybe eat it later I was not very happy or hungry at that point. I figured he was just offer to replace the sandwich but he didn’t. I took the steak and stuff off the very burnt bun, put it in to go container. Being in the the restaurant business myself for 30 years and found that to be unprofessional and odd. I should have spoken up in hindsight. Then we had dessert since we were celebrating our birthdays. The waiter did say happy birthday, but didn’t even comp our dessert after all that. So very disappointed even though the food was very good, I will not go back. Too many other restaurants that deserve my business. Sorry to say!

Super food, super service. Not fancy and noise level is high but spotless and welcoming. Love this place.

Great food, service was a bit slow as it appeared they were short handed (common theme since covid). As the dining room filled up it was quite noisy.

First time but I will comeback.
Beef steak sandwich and shrimp soagetti were sooo good

Quaint, cozy place. Went for lunch, which was awesome, but going back for dinner. Servings are substantial. We bought drinks with lunch, which put my total in the bracket I chose. You can eat here for $20-25 each.

I went there yesterday and the sweet waitress recommended the penne vodka and it was FIIRREE. Definitely going back soon.

It was such a great meal. The price is also cheap. There were too many pastas and pizzas for one Japanese person. Pizza is for one person and about 2 or 3 Japanese people. The pizza was loaded with fresh ingredients.
