Romantica Italian in Birmingham

Tonight we have dinner in this lovely place the service is high level and Shakily , Sasha and Karolina was amazing food very nice. High recommended 100%

Had such high hopes but completely disappointed. We craved for good Italian after being in Italy for holiday. Food was so bland. Everything we ordered lacked taste. It’s as though they forgot to season the food. Don’t understand why it’s popular tbh. Has to be one of the worst Italian places I have ever eaten in a while.

Great food, really hot in side.No air con i asked and was told to walk out if I wanted to cool down round the back.

Each dish had a unique and delicious twist!!!!!!!!

The ambiance was fantastic, and the food was even better!!!!!!

Nice food and really great service. Perhaps a bit pricey

Celebrated my moms birthday 2nd April 2025. Great service and delicious food. Would highly recommend.Thank you

Excellent food, and friendly attentive service

Delightful meal with the family - wonderful food and friendly service. School night treat for a birthday so we were served quickly but definitely not rushed.

It has not been for a while, but the top service and the food as good ad ever fully recommended for a top top meal and service

Please don’t waste your money and order it from here. We just ordered the dish called gamberoni e capesante and it wasn’t tasty at all. Just some uncooked pawns in a watery sauce who looked more water and pesto together. Not tasty at all and i think was uncooked too. Never ordering from here anymore or even going in restaurant too.

Excellent food and service.....good value

Superb, like usually 👌 Recommend to all.

We had a lovely evening at Romantica, lovely atmosphere, amazing food and service was fantastic. Would highly recommend.

Lovely restaurant. We had the lunchtime menu, choice was limited, but will return for the full menu very soon. Great service. Reasonably priced.

I had a nice meal in Romantica with my girlfriend food was delicious I'm very surprised it's a bit pricey but worth it if your girlfriend or wife is worth it check this place out it's a must definitely will come back again again and try something else thank you Romantica for beautiful food👍

Nice food in an authentic Italian restaurant

We had a lovely lunch at Romantica yesterday. The food, ambience and service was fantastic. We had the fixed price lunch menu which was excellent value for money. We will be back.

Amazing place,lovely staff,so nice and welcoming, sorted everything fast and efficiently. Such lovely people that work there .

Great in taste ... a bit more pricey though! Great servers n nice ambience

Great pizzas, although limited vegetarian options across the whole menu.

My husband and I celebrated his birthday at Romantica. We enjoyed both a lovely meal and excellent service. Very professional and friendly staff. Would definitely recommend.

Love this place. Always excellent service and the food is always amazing (handles allergies well and is coeliac friendly).

Wonderful fresh food! We have ordered carbonara, pizza pepperoni and garlic and cheese pizza. Great experience.Amazing staff, very friendly very knowledgeable.

We came to Romantica Yesterday for a Birthday Lunch for my Mom.I Can't praise this Restaurant Highly enough..The Food is Always Delicious and Fresh Ingredients and the Service always Courteous and Welcoming.Highly Recommended.Outstanding Family Restaurant of the Highest Quality.

Always such a great evening or lunch when we visit Romantica the food here and experience is truly excellent. Me and my girlfriend visit regular and this is one of our favorite eateries. Service is always great and special mention to Zibby always very welcoming and is excellent front of house and exstreamly professional. Highly recommend one of the best italian restaurants i have been to, including ones i have visited in Italy 5-5 starts for me.

Great meal with extended family.

Food was really good, plentiful & served on warm plates. Staff were so polite & friendly.. ambiance was lovely... Value for money.... couldn't fault it in any way

There tonight for NYE Dinner menu. Everything just as it should be,Great Food,Great service & always a nice crowd in there.

We enjoyed an extremely delicious lunch here last week with family. The staff were delightful and the ambience warm and inviting

A very warm welcome on entering, with ease of registering the car. The tables were well spaced, the ambience excellent. The service was excellent and had we had sufficient time to choose drinks and the food. The menu had a varied choice of starters,mains and deserts. The food was of excellent quality, quantity, hot and well presented, being of very good value for money. The waiters and waitresses were very polite, well presented and attentive. This was our first visit, but will certainly not be our last!

Outstanding meal Christmas Eve Great welcome & atmosphere Outstanding meal Top notch service Highly recommend & we will return All staff really make this restaurant - every single person just wants you to have a brilliant time

Lovely meal and very attentive service (but not over done) very helpful with a dairy intolerant diner. Not the first time we've been here and both times were great

Risotto was yummy and server was well informed and helpful

Wonderful staff, great food and the service was sleek. Will definitely revisit.

Terrible restaurant would not recommend. Me and my partners food was salty we complained but, nothing was done we were rushed to order and rushed to eat in the restaurant I made a pre book of the table a week in advance and the staff is rude. I found it an insult to dine with my partner.

I have been here twice and both times the food and service was exceptional. At last a restaurant that knows how to cook a steak properly. Thank you. This is now the 3rd time we have been and yet again the service and the food was absolutely amazing. Thanks again 👍

Italian is always good (In my opinion) and this is,............... Well good. It's not exceptional, it is what you would expect, you won't be disappointed and if it was more local I might go back but I wouldn't make the journey specially.

Beautiful romantic lighting, cosy atmosphere, both times we’ve been service has been brilliant. It’s a little more expensive than some local restaurants but the quality of the food is reflective of that uplift for sure! You can tell ingredients are fresh, dishes are flavourful and well seasoned. Well worth a visit

Lovely, comfortable, unrushed, delicious lunch menu. Finally, celebrating my hubby's birthday - early October so long overdue. Service is amazing and they want to make it special. Thanks so much for a beautiful, relaxed, delicious celebration. Food choice is amazing and we always come for birthdays and anniversary treats and always return x

Just had a lovely evening at Romantica, everything was perfect. Went with my sister and two girlfriends for a joint birthday celebration. Lovely food, brilliant service, staff are excellent.

The best place to eat in Mere Green by a country mile.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. They always make our visit special. The food was amazing and the surroundings were really clean.

Have been a couple of times and never disappointed Lovely staff and gorgeous food! Love the lasagna, firm favourite and fiancé had the veal and said it was amazing

Wow! Food was amazing. Staff were very friendly and professional, all in all a lovely evening out.

The food was excellent, service professional and friendly. Little bit quiet, but it was lunchtime. It does get busy & lively in the evening. Service, food & atmosphere is great during this period.

Lovely restaurant, fabulous food and friendly staff

Lovely food staff very pleasant

I was served by Laura who was so lovely. I only had starters but I really enjoyed my food. The homemade bread is amazing. I definitely recommend this little jewel

Stopped here for a quick lunch. Really enjoyed the food. Lots of options on the menu. Pizza is romana style which is great if you like a thin and crispy base. The pasta was beautiful. We would definitely visit again.

Like the others, great service and atmosphere but the food was substantial for a Italian of this calibre in this region. Also my wife ordered a chicken dish with a white wine sauce. It was a cheese sauce instead and was Boiled too much and the chicken was Boiled. Also the sea bass and king prawns dish. I would suggest adding a little more to the dish to make it more appealing for the price. Again this is the only 'italian' I've been to and disappointed. I must stress the word Italian. As don't believe the chefs are Italian from the way the food was cooked.

Since I discovered this Italian restaurant when I have the chance I'm always stopping to get some food,real Italian taste,the staff is really nice and the cappuccino is to die for, highly recommended

Twice in a week it’s that good!!! Food was exceptional and the staff were amazingly hospitable, warm and welcoming! Steak, risotto and pancetta main all incredible.

Food reasonably tasty..boiled potatoes not available at all..would have been nice side or main plate item to supplement somewhat meagre portions..coul and shoul do better..

The food was very nice and was hot nice wine but as always over priced but a nice night out

The restaurant and menu is classic , or alternatively dare I say dated. But I didnt care and nor did everone else in this packed restaurant it seemed. The menu is not exciting, its robust italian that has been in the UK sincs the 1980s but.....the food itself is cooked very well, the produce is good and the dishes are well sauced. The service is professional and warm. Its a great place to go for food

Excellent meal tonight. Was very busy but didn't have to wait long for food or drinks. Staff really friendly and gave good advice on selections. Food was served hot. Our first visit here but definately not our last.

Only one word to describe our experience and that is Outstanding. Service, food ambience, even price, all outstanding. Got to be the best Italian in the Midlands

Having only ever eaten here in the evenings, we decided to try the lunch menu. Very reasonably priced for 2 courses and as usual the service and food was outstanding. This is our new favourite lunch venue.

Food was really delicious. Would go again 😋😋😋

Incredible dishes, very welcoming and attentive staff. I chose steak rossini and courgettes. Sooo tasty. We had tempura prawns to start, melt in your mouth. Now i know why it's my dad's favourite restaurant. The Montepulciano dabruzzo was divine too. Highly recommend. It was nice to dine in Mere Green for the first time.

Excellent food. Staff so attentive and friendly. Prompt service with relaxed atmosphere with reasonable seating and table spacing. Thank you for a good evening.

Best Italian in Sutton. Can pick it up as well to take home if that’s better for people.

Food was well prepared and presented, very tasty. Lovely friendly atmosphere with attentive staff. Recommended

Every visit is consistent with excellent food, service and atmosphere. A great place 💕

Maybe I made the wrong choice, I should have tried pizza or pasta, but I got steak. It wasn't delicious.

For such a large party the service was very efficient. The staff were helpful and very patient coping with the elderly members of the group. The food was served hot and presented well, each dish was beautifully cooked. All those who attended enjoyed their meals and the friendly atmosphere the staff created. Our friend celebrating her 97th birthday really enjoyed herself.

We go here for our anniversary as it's a real treat! Staff are lovely and very efficient. The food is of a very high standard, although quite pricey it is worth it. Book in advance as it can get very busy.

Went for the first time this evening and the experience was amazing and the lady waiter who served us her customer service skills were brilliant will definitely be returning

Service was excellent, food was exceptionally good. Nice atmosphere. Couldn't ask for a nicer place for a romantic meal.

Friendly service. Excellent pizzas and delicious dessert

Been here a few times now and it never fails to disappoint. The staff are brilliant - friendly, attentive, informative and really want to ensure you enjoy your visit. Food is delicious, great choice on the menu and the portions are generous. Can't wait to go back.

Fabulous experience . The food was excellent and service perfect. Thank you.

Went to Romantica for our wedding anniversary, knowing we’d have a lovely meal. Friendly greeting asked if we were celebrating and wished us a happy anniversary. Had the fried goats cheese starter and sea bass with seasonal vegetables. Beautifully cooked and presented. Would recommend.

We had a reasonably priced excellent meal with good service.

We went for my mums birthday celebration. Everyone made us so welcome and made my mum feel really special . Food was amazing and we all loved it. Will definitely be back!

Very rude elderly man waiter tried to make me feel bad for wanting to take my food home with me. It was an expensive night out and the man made fun of us multiple times. He said ‘It’s only like two mouthfuls, just put it on a spoon’ and pointed at my friend’s food and said ‘See she ate it.’ He also said ‘What you going to do? Have it for lunch tomorrow?’ And sniggered. On the way out he said again ‘Don’t forget to eat your lunch tomorrow’ whilst glaring at us. We wouldn’t come back. What an awful person and experience. 8.6.24 Approximately 21:15-22:15

This restaurant is perfect for date night, offering a charming ambiance and attentive service. The food was delicious, adding to the overall delightful experience. The manager, who seemed to be in charge, was funny and made us feel very welcome ( we even in Spanish and French🤣). Despite living in the area, this was our first visit, and it did not disappoint. The atmosphere was cozy, making it an ideal spot for a romantic evening. The staff’s attentiveness ensured that we had everything we needed throughout our meal. We were thoroughly impressed and will definitely be returning for another visit in the future.

Had a lovely dinner last night at Romantica. It's always worth spending a little more for good quality food. While they did have a few fabulous specials on, I decided to go with the lamb chops instead. There are no side dishes with the main meal, one is required to order each item separately. I decided on mushrooms and dauphinoise. The dessert menu looked amazing, but due to the large portions, even though I only ate half, there wasn't any space for a morsel of dessert. I would have preferred a smaller portion. I know some restaurants offer a lady's portion, but in today's society that may no longer be politically correct, however true. The glass of Merlot wasn't a great choice, not for my palate. The staff were friendly and attentive, and children were made to feel welcome. A pleasant dinner.

Great selection. Delicious food, perfectly cooked . Staff are friendly and attentive . Wish we lived closer, visiting a family member and she recommended eating at Romantica .

Where do I start If you want a taste of Italy you must come here Atmosphere food and people are amazing So welcoming and the food is so fresh Love this place

Amazing food. Big portions. Atmosphere was brilliant. Service Fantastic

Great food , reasonably priced the lunch time menu is excellent value. Very small parking area though

Absolutely outstanding service. Food impeccable

Absolutely fantastic! Food, drinks & service were amazing. Thank you

Very disappointed. They can't wait to get rid of you, table at 6pm and was being rudely rushed out of the door 1hrs later. I hadn't even closed my knife and fork but it was done for me and my plate whisked away. There was 3 in our party 1 had a beer and the remaining were berated for not wanting alcohol...

Amazing service, food and drink! We went for my birthday and nothing was too much trouble. Large portions, freshly cooked. Parking available.

Always fantastic food, been there many times and will go many more. Best Italian food we have had outside of Italy.

Always very happy here, Italian food on point staff are lovely, 10/10

Delicious food and lovely staff, cheerful and attentive. We'll definitely be back for more!

About 6 years ago i went here for my 17th birthday, and last week i chose to return again for my 23rd birthday with my parents and boyfriend, and I couldnt be more happy with the experience. The food is incredible, proper high quality italian food - yes it is pricier than places like pizza express but 100% you get what you pay for. Customer service is amazing, the staff are attentive and more than happy to help with any concerns. I'm vegetarian and I asked to have the carbonara without the pancetta and they were more than happy to oblige - it felt like the dish was missing something but to be fair I did ask them to remove a key item so that's my choice obviously. I do wish there were a few more veggie options on the menu but in no way has it stopped me from dining here before. We were checked on regularly without it interrupting our meal, and I can't wait to return for my next celebration.

My first time fining here on Saturday with my husband, food, service and atmosphere was lovely, the steak was divine and even manged pudding! will definitely be back.

Romantica is hands down, one of the best restaurants in Sutton Coldfield. The food is excellent and the staff and service are superb. Just check the reviews of Romantica, and it says it all. This place is a gem of a restaurant. We have been coming here at least once a month for years. The lunchtime menu is great value, and they serve the best pint of Moretti in brum.

Only had lunch here but nice food and good value. Service excellent and car park at rear

Our first visit to this restaurant and it was lovely! The staff were so attentive and year discreet, the service was amazing. Our food was delicious and the ambiance in the restaurant was really lovely. We will definitely be back!

Great food at good prices, our waitress was lovely.

Delicious food, attentive and friendly staff, a lovely ambience and reasonable prices. What more could you ask for!

The online booking experience was good. The menu was varied and clear. The decor was looking a little tired in places but the service made up for that. All the food was of good quality, cooked well and brought to the table in good time.

Perfect Italian restaurant..... happy friendly welcoming atmosphere. Lovely food .. perfect for a relaxed family meal.

Really lovely place, fabulous food and even better service. Would definitely recommend. Second time we've been, and so enjoyed it.
