Roma Pizza Palace

Extensive menu and slightly better environment. No construction as of this review.

Great home town pizza. Great location for families! They offer a military discount ♡♡♡

Not from town, popped in for a quick bite, I got the Italian sub, it was Superb (oilvinegar no mayo) my son got a slice of plain cheese it was mediocre at best. The staff was flvery friendly and helpful. My son's slice was reheated so it might be better fresh, but the sub was awesome!

Under new ownership. Got a sub there was very good. I have to try other menu items. Cleaner then before much better seating than beforr

I thought I would try this place again since the management changed. It was not good under previous management. Unfortunately, they are still not ready for prime time yet, in my opinion. I regularly visit and re-visit local pizza shops in South Central PA looking for the best place for my tastes, realizing that others may have a different taste in mind. I am a fan of the old time NY/ NJ Italian style pizza joints, so that is where I lean. Good luck finding a pizza shop run by Italians around here anymore, though that does not mean the pizza can't be duplicated.

First the good of ROMA pizza. I ordered a large plain pizza only (my usual fare). The price was average. The employees were enthusiastic and nice. All seemed to be from the same family and young. The pizza looked great and the crust was very good. There was no problem ordering or receiving the pie. I do sense potential in this place and hope it succeeds.

Well, that was the positive and that's it. On to the negative. When I first walked into the shop my first impressing was, "is this still under construction?" It looked like the previous owners left it in a mess and it has yet to fully be recovered. I was not 100 percent sure the place would even pass inspection, but surely it did? It was dark and the kitchen was tiny and crowded. I don't think I would have sat there to eat in as it seemed somehow crammed, dark and not in the best shape. It needs brightened up with better colors and lighting with maybe some Italian artwork on the walls or other decorations making it look more like home.

The pizza itself had a strange taste. I can only describe it as "buttery." Maybe some will like that taste but to me it did not fit traditional mom and pop shop pizza. I don't know of course if actual butter is placed on the pizza but that is what the taste reminded me of. It could be the taste inherent in the cheese they are using. In any case it is not your traditional pizza taste you may be expecting. I have tasted worse and I have tasted better in other shops close to this one. I may give it another try later. I do not know how good the sandwiches or other products are so I gave it a 3 stars for now.
