| With its eighteenth-century historic bones, Bistro Romano is as attractive for its ambience as for its large portions of satisfying steak and veal dishes. The tableside Caesar salad is one of the best in town. Try the homey pastas, especially the rigatoni with sausage, garlic and basil. Besides the traditional Italian dishes, the crispy duck is a standout, de-boned and accompanied by Barolo wine, garlic and peppercorn sauce. For entertainment, there’s the piano bar, often inspiring singalongs, and on weekends, a retro interactive murder-mystery dinner theater. |
