Had an absolutely amazing experience last night for my fiancés birthday. Due to the bad weather conditions and all of the weather warnings issued about a flash freeze, they had almost every single reservation cancel on them. They graciously allowed us to continue with our reservation despite us being the only ones in the restaurant, they didn't ask us to postpone or refund our reservation and allowed us to continue as normal. Our server Rory was extremely polite and very kind. It felt like we had the restaurant to ourselves and it absolutely felt like a once in a lifetime experience. The food was to die for. They brought out complimentary cauliflower bites and bread as a thank you for not cancelling and taking the time to come out. And we ordered the Arancini, Penne Boscaiola con Pollo and the Pollo Val'Dostana. The food was absolutely amazing. I'm no food critic, but it all just tasted sooo good. And finally, they brought out this amazing white chocolate cake that was easily the BEST cake either of us have ever had. It turned what might have been just another birthday into an absolutely lovely evening that we will never forget. A HUGE thank you to Rory and the chefs in the back for everything. You absolutely made our night perfect.

A great dinner at La Roma yet again. This time all four of us had the steak frites, which were phenomenal! I cannot say enough about the food, ambiance and service. All five star! My favourite Italian restaurant on the planet!

We went as a party of four on a Saturday night. The food was excellent, the service was rapid and highly professional. The restaurant was full and the noise level was high. For the quality of the food, it was fairly priced. We will definitely go again, but will choose a weekday night.

Been coming here for over 10 years. The food is always consistently excellent and service is superb. It is hands down the best Italian restaurant on Preston.

Although our waitress was amazing, we found that the appetizers were more tasty than our mains (we went on vday). Drinks were really good. Ambiance was ok, the lights were very bright upstairs on one side of the dining rooms compared to the rest of the restaurant.

We had a wonderful date night on Saturday. Daniella was great, her timing impeccable. The food was delicious. Try the burrata <3. I would recommend La Roma to anyone looking for fine dining.

We had a great time eating out for diner at La Roma. This is the second time I have taken my wife out for diner there for Valentines Day. The service there is amazing, the owner is very nice and welcoming. It is a small dining area so it does get loud when it is busy but that doesn't bother us. The food is always good. We started off with the Calamari and it was fresh and crispy but a little too salty. My wife had the lobster ravioli and it was delicious. I had the veal with vegetables. It was good but again a little too salty. We both had a bottle of wine, red and white. For dessert, we had Cannoli's and that was the best I have ever eaten. Thank you for a wonderful evening.

Dinner at La Roma was perfect as usual. A warm welcoming restaurant with outstanding food. When I want a guaranteed delightful evening we come here. I had the fettuccine pescatore with zucchini to start. My spouse had gnocchi in vodka rose sauce. It was all delicious.

I don't know if it was just a busy night, but it took a really long time for our server to come great us / ask for drinks. One of the servers also bumped into the back or my chair instead of going a longer route around and I almost spilled my drink because of it. The food was amazing - I just think the service was a little off that night. It was our first time there so hard to tell.
