Skip to main contentThere's not a lot of fanfare when it comes to Ristorante Roma. The owners of this quiet, unassuming and uncluttered hole-in-the-wall aren't exactly using ambience to create a dining "experience." The same is true for the food—it's a straight-up Roman-Italian food without an ounce of mystery—which is exactly the way restaurants should be when it comes to Italian food. If you want chicken scalopine ($11.75), you'll get a plate full of wine-doused chicken with side salad, and not much else. If you order the ravioli Bolognese ($8.75) at Roma, you'll get a mound of cheese-stuffed ravioli with a generous dose of really good meat sauce. Roma's not a ravioli-skimping kind of joint, and for that, we're thankful. (LS)
