About This Place

Roma Restaurant Pizza, Pasta, & More, nestled in the heart of Nebo, NC, is a genuine haven for lovers of authentic Italian and pizza fare. This charming local spot masterfully balances traditional flavors with generous portions, creating a dining experience that feels both comforting and indulgent.

The cuisine is a celebration of Italy’s rich culinary heritage, offering everything from hand-tossed specialty pizzas like the meaty Roma Deluxe 16 and savory Meat Lovers to classic pasta dishes that evoke homemade goodness in every bite. The Veal Cutlet Parmigiana with Spaghetti stands out as a must-try, perfectly breaded and topped with rich marinara and melted cheese, while the Cheese Ravioli — especially baked with marinara sauce — delivers creamy, satisfying comfort that lingers long after the last forkful.

For those who crave variety, the dinner menu is a treasure trove: succulent Chicken Marsala and Shrimp Scampi offer elegant, savory notes, while hearty lasagnas and delicate eggplant parmigiana provide classic homestyle depth. The specialties are rounded out by enticing sides like the crisp Grilled Chicken Salad and crowd-pleasing Chicken Wings, perfect for sharing or as a prelude to a hearty Italian feast.

What truly elevates the dining experience at Roma Restaurant is its warm, inviting atmosphere paired with attentive service. Customers repeatedly praise the friendly, family-like hospitality that greets you the moment you step inside. Kevin Chandler shared how their family gathering was not only delicious but also comfortable and timely, with pizzas and salads arriving piping hot and full of flavor. Miranda Lewis echoes this sentiment, highlighting the consistent quality and warmth, making Roma their go-to spot for takeout that never disappoints.

The care put into every dish is palpable. Imagine biting into a slice of pizza with a beautifully balanced crust — crisp at the edges but soft and airy beneath — layered with fresh toppings that burst with authenticity. Or savoring homemade spinach ravioli swimming in a lush Alfredo sauce, offering a silky texture and decadent flavor that leaves you utterly satisfied, as Eric J so enthusiastically described.

Even the simple bread served alongside pasta dishes has garnered rave reviews. David Kight’s vivid praise paints it perfectly: crusty on the outside and wonderfully soft on the inside, it’s the kind of detail that reflects the pride Roma Restaurant takes in every aspect of your meal.

Whether you're gathering with family, seeking a cozy dinner spot, or craving the tantalizing tastes of Italy to go, Roma Restaurant Pizza, Pasta, & More promises a heartfelt, flavorful journey. From their generous specialty pizzas and hearty entrees to the sweet finish of a lovingly crafted cannoli, every visit feels like coming home to authentic Italian comfort with a smile.

    The service staff was super friendly and nice. Definitely an asset to the business. The food was remarkably good, a smaller place but definitely worth going. We had a big get-together with the large family, and ordered a bunch of pizza and salad. The food was done fair quickly and the family really enjoyed every bit of it . We definitely will be going by again.

    I had a meatball Parmigiano sub and my wife had peppers and onions sub. Both very flavorful at a reasonable price. Very attentive to us.

    Great Italian food. Really enjoyed the big portion of chicken Parm. Homemade spinach ravioli with Alfredo sauce was outstanding.

    This place is simply amazing. I've been meaning to write this review for awhile. There's so much to love about this food. It's just soooo good. Let's start with the bread they give you with pasta dishes. I mean, it's bread, how good could it be? AMAZING. Just the loaf of bread they give you is soo good. The outside has a perfect crust, but the inside is so soft, warm, and delicious. Every time I come here, I think to myself that surely it's not as good as I remember . . . its just bread right? It is. It's so good. My favorite dish is the stromboli, pictured. If you just order the stromboli, you get it with onions, green peppers, and italian sausage(?, i forget), and of course, cheeeeese. You can get whatever you want, but that's the default setup and I like it. It's a perfect combination of flavors. Another favorite is the white pizza, that I have fixed up the same way. Their pizza crust is amaaaaaazing. This one of 2 places I'll actually eat the crust. Also pictured is the cannoli, which is really good. My personal favorite dessert is also here . . . the Tiramisu. I always get the Tiramisu to go because I love to brew up a nice strong cup of dark roast coffee to enjoy with it. The service here is always great, the food always great, and the staff is always friendly. That's the kind of consistency that will make a restaurant excel. I love places like these and I'm so glad I found Roma's! Thank ya'll!

Incredible customer service along with great food always = 5 stars! Well done Roma Restaurant! Looking forward to our next visit!

    *Update Oct 2025 - we still love Romas! Stromboli, pizzas, subs, pasta dishes, and tiramisu are our favorites. PS-don't miss the best bread ever. Crispy outside and soft and tender inside. If bread doesn't come with your dish, go ahead and order a loaf. It's amazing.* If you have never been to this little gem in Nebo, you are in for a surprise. The exterior does not stand out as anything special, and the interior looks more like a country diner. You might expect chicken fried steak , but you'll find chicken Parm instead. Welcome to little Italy in little Nebo. We enjoyed the stromboli, pizza, and chicken Parm - everything was delicious and fresh. The bread that came with the Parm was amazing - crispy outside and snowy white and tender inside. The pizza crust was light and crispy, per my husband, who ate the entire 10" pizza. My son had been here before, and his favorite is the Stromboli - it looked delicious! They have a full menu of Italian dishes, and we are looking forward to trying many more of them. The restaurant itself is very clean. The young lady who served us was wonderful with a lively personality. This restaurant is a 40 minute drive for us, but we will be placing Romas in our regular rotation.

    My wife & I came up from the Charlotte area for the weekend to Lake James. As a person living in the south for 33 years and originally from NJ I would've never expected to find a great little Italian restaurant. As a true pizza snob I was blown away by their pizza! The dough was absolutely freshly made, light and perfectly done. Fresh ingredients, great sauce and fresh mozzarella. No cheap cheese on this pizza! Highly recommend and would come back again. Oh...the other dishes we saw come out looked great as well. Fresh looking salads too! Thumbs up. Keep up the great job!
