Roma in Mount bellew

05/01/2026: Update to my review below. Visited again and everything went well. I loved the lamb special. I have added a few stars here now. It's nice to see that the owners are caring. I previously left a 5 star review, but after the change of ownership last year, the food quality unfortunately declined. On my first few visits after the change, all dishes (even salads) had an unpleasant smell, which I assumed may have been to old oil. I gave it a few more chances, as it's the only restaurant in the area, but eventually stopped going after a very disappointing experience with gone off salmon. After a long break, I visited again recently, and was glad to notice that the issue with the oil smell seems to have been resolved. However, there were still some inconsistencies. We were asked how we'd like our steaks cooked - my partner ordered well done, and I ordered medium - but both steaks arrived very well done. The black mushrooms did not look appetizing at all, which was disappointing, as I am a mushroom lover. The chips were quite bland, and the salad did not really appeal eather. I did not raise a complaint at the time as the meal was edible, but I am sharing this feedback in the hope that the new owner might see it, along with other similar comments, and take it on board. The place has real potential, all staff are absolutely amazing! I would love to see its food to return to the standards it once had. I promise, I will be a regular customer then!
