This was another restaurant week experience & my first time here. The place is in a store front & once inside the ambiance is really cute. The place is beautiful & makes you forget you're in a store front. The ambiance, the service & the food takes you to another place. Open 7 days a week for dinner you have plenty of opportunities to come here & you must!
Once the food starts coming, you forget your in the local community versus a high end place on the strip. Only amazing food can do this & the food was just that, some of the most amazing food we've had. The service was great although I have one side note I'll add at the end.
We started with some Bruschetta & an order of meatballs. Both were amazing & we ordered some garlic bread which is some of the best I've had, it was good. The Bruschetta was better then most I've had. As you can see in the picture, marinated tomatoes, mozzarella, basil on a really nice tasting bread. The meatballs pomodoro, the sauce was out of this world & made these truly amazing. They were large & yummy.
Next course was the Eggplant Parmigiana mozzarella, pomodoro & the Chicken Parmigiana mozzarella, pomodoro as you can see in the next two pictures are huge. We both split these to try both, but we had almost half of the chicken left because everything was so filling. Again, the sauce on these is of such a high quality & cooked to perfection with the broccoli & potatoes. I love chicken parmigiana & I've never tasted any as amazing as this. The chicken was juicy & with the cheese & sauce would cut with a fork. The eggplant was awesome & the love that went into the preparation of this dish sets it apart from any other I've had.
On to the desserts after a long break, unfortunately I did not take a picture but I'll be going back so next time. We had the Tiramisu & the cheese cake. I'm normally not a dessert eater, but OMG. The Tiramisu had a taste better then any place I've been to in town. The Cheese cake, made fresh that morning, was so light & fluffy, the taste, again not being a big dessert eater, I could not stop eating it. It was creamy & fluffy, did not taste sugary like most & melted in your mouth which set off an explosion of taste buds. I've had a lot of cheese cakes in my life & this was BY FAR the BEST I've ever had.
The Chef puts his heart & passion into everything that comes out of his kitchen which you can see from every seat in the place. The Chef takes the time to come out of the kitchen & talk to you to see how you're enjoying your dinner, a very nice touch.
This is definitely strip quality cooking at neighborhood prices. One would expect to find this kind of food in a Michelin star restaurant on the strip, not out in the local community at a very affordable price & this place deserves a Michelin Star.
This is at the TOP of our list to return to again & will gladly pay full price. I have not found a place I can compare to the quality & taste of the food here.
I HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND Chef's Roma Kitchen. It's in Henderson & you will not be disappointed. Our water glasses were never empty, our server came by often to check on us & I really felt like I was family not just a customer.
Ok the side note; we had about a quarter to maybe half of the the chicken parm left that I had asked to be put into a doggie bag. With the break we took between dinner because we were hitting the overflow point & the dessert, our doggie bag was never brought to our table. We rolled out of there so happy, I forgot to ask where it was. I can't fault our server as I forgot to ask where it was.
When I go back, I can promise you that will not happen again as I'll ask for my to go if there is any left before that amazing cheese cake comes, because I just may forget again once I dig into that cheese cake.
So seriously folks, you really need to take the time to venture out to Chef's Roma Kitchen. I promise you will not be disappointed & if I could give this place 10 stars, I would. I really HIGHLY recommend this place, you have to give it a try.
