Rome's Flavours

I ordered the carbonara, salmon, bread, and dessert—everything was absolutely delicious. Having just returned from a vacation in Italy, I can confidently say this restaurant is as close to authentic Italian as it gets in Orlando. The entrée portions are a bit on the smaller side, but the quality makes up for it. I’ll definitely be back to try their pizza, several couples were ordering it even during dinner, which says a lot!

Went for a very special birthday dinner, but it didn't feel really special. It started out great before you even got there with phone calls from the restaurant about confirming reservations and calling back to tell us the special of the day. Which was very kind, but the special never even turned out to be the special. Greeted pretty nicely as we arrived. But that was it for the birthday celebration. And a 21st! Restaurant was pretty but very crammed. Turnover was quick on the table behind us but not as fast for us. The salads were probably my favorite part. The roasted vegetables were wonderful and salted. The presentation on the whole fish was cool. We had a gentleman envying as a he just got a smaller portion and was disappointed in his size. We could see that tables away. I didn't really want the special of the day pasta but it was very flavorful. A little thick. Beautifully presented. I thought the pizza was good. It was thick and filling. We eat lots of pizzas from tons of different local places and it wasn't a favorite at our table but I wouldn't turn it away :-) It was the thing that filled me up the most. All in all, I'm glad we went because my daughter had been wanting to go there for several years on her birthday. But would I go back again? No. I say everyone should try it once to see for themselves! Great area on Park avenue!

We were just walking back to our car after having ice cream when we saw one of the servers had pizza samples on the corner street. The pizza was so flavorful we couldn’t rest!!! I had the Meatball appetizer and pizza for the hubby both were delish! We didn’t get to finish our food since we were still full from having ice cream 😂 It was cool to know that this restaurant imports in the water and flour from Italy. Can’t wait to come back for their other dishes. Another plus is that the servers and owner were very warm and welcoming.

Fantastic! Everything we ate was delicious!! The servers were attentive and kind! We toasted my son for his birthday and the next thing we know they brought a card and confetti. Beautiful vibe--fantastic food--couldn't ask for more!

The best fresh handmade Italian food I’ve tasted. The restaurant is small which adds to the local vibe and feels warm and welcoming. I had the shrimp fettuccine and focaccia bread - both were delicious! Highly recommend!

Very tasty, well seasoned, homemade pasta, such a relaxing environment and all the attendants very nice. Made me feel relaxed, we enjoyed a great lunch and conversation. My wife and daughter. Great place to go.

Getting flavour of Rome was wonderful. Pasta made freshly throughout the day with herbs reminiscent of our time in Italia. The restaurant is owned by a lovely dedicated couple who carefully curate and train their staff. You can feel and appreciate the knowledge and the customer service is as wonderful as their fettuccine shrimp and pistachio. The pizzas are also an excellent selection on the menu. We've had the pleasure of having Tatiana as our server a couple of times and she's a treasure!! The outside patio sitting is tucked in a side street do is a good blend of people watching but amiable dining.

Authentic Italian meal. Absolutely delicious! Everything fresh and made to order. Fantastic service. From New York and highly impressed!

On our way to our Reservation for a different restaurant it was cancelled?! My Son used a reliable online site to make it we were pretty confused and when we arrived as no one answered the phone it was under renovation. This was Mothers Day how were we even going to be able to get into another place? We had walked by Rome's Flavours and I approached Gabriella and explained the situation not really holding out any hope for a table for 4. She was so happy work it out to accomodate us and we came back not much later. How surprising that a place we didn't know about turned out to be wonderful with fresh pasta, with great friendly service and a relaxing atmosphere. They were making the pasta right in front of everyone! We ate everything we were served! I do wish they had a desert that appealed to me...Tiramisu nor anything Nutella isn't for me but maybe they will add something different the next time I go. Thank you for making my time with family special! I plan to bring some friends soon to experience what I did! Jill

What a great experience for a special day (took my mom for Mother's Day). We made reservations which I highly recommend if you want to sit inside. It's a little restaurant. Service was spot on, Destiny was caring, smiling the whole time, and remembered comments made throughout our interaction. Food was delicious, nothing like pasta made in house. I missed having bread at the table, not sure if it's because we were there for lunch or if that is their practice.

I recently visited an Italian restaurant for the second time, hoping for a better experience after a challenging first visit. The first time, we had to wait nearly 45 minutes just to get a server to bring us water, which led us to leave in frustration. Fortunately, our second visit showed noticeable improvements. Upon arrival, we were promptly seated, which was a great start. However, the experience quickly became awkward when I found a hair in my wine. The staff handled the situation well, replacing the wine immediately after I pointed it out. Despite this, there was a palpable sense that the staff was overly attentive, almost as if they recognized us from our previous visit and were trying extra hard to impress us. This made the atmosphere feel a bit strained. The food itself was good. While it wasn't the best Italian cuisine I've had, it was decent enough. I could tell that the owner, who is also the chef, genuinely cares about bringing the authentic flavors of Rome to his customers. This was particularly evident when we saw him passionately making pasta from scratch. His dedication to his craft was truly inspiring, and it's clear that he pours his heart into his work. However, the service still left room for improvement. The servers always seemed like they were in a rush, giving the impression that there wasn't enough staff to help them. This sense of being hurried detracted slightly from the dining experience.

We tried a sample down the street and fell in love with the cheese pizza. The owner makes the dough and pasta fresh every morning. We got the Alfredo with mushrooms and bacon, with a double pizza of Rome's Flavour's... wow. Absolutely delicious. The service was a little bit slow, but only because the place was PACKED on a Saturday lunch rush. The outside and inside dining is nice, and quaint. They have a wine selection that looks awesome. Would DEFINITELY come back again! Amazing!

Updating my review: Finally decided to try Rome's Flavours when we were in the Winter Park area and had a pleasant experience. The service was great this time, we were seated right away and I enjoyed a delicious plate of fettuccine alfredo with mushrooms. It was creamy and paired well with a glass of Pinot Grigio. The presentation on all of our dishes were beautiful and we enjoyed the outdoor seating.

it was perfect! The pasta carbonara was delicious and fresh, the ambiance was very traditional and quaint, and the servers were very friendly. I loved hearing the staff speaking Italian around us! Definitely looking forward to going back :)

We came for the first time for dinner and we were super impressed by the food. It is a small, cute spot just off of Park Ave. The staff was super friendly and you could tell the pasta was homemade. The portions are on the smaller side but the quality is impressive. We would definitely come back.

Another great meal at Rome's Flavours. The staff is always fast and friendly. The salad had a great balsamic vinaigrette dressing. The pizza was crispy on the bottom and perfect on the top.

This place is fantastic. I made a reservation for me and my family for my birthday and the table was waiting for us upon our arrival. The food was absolutely incredible. Everything was fresh and made to order. This is the most authentic food I've had in Florida. I would highly recommend checking this place out when you're craving pasta and pizza!

Once again, another delightful experience at my new favorite Italian restaurant in Orlando. Whenever I'm craving gnocchi that's fluffy like a pillow smothered in one of the most down right delicious pesto sauces that have ever touched my taste buds, I immediately run to Rome's Flavors. Everything I've tried has been fantastic but this is hands down what i come here for! Whenever a friend asks for recommendations for superb Italian food in Orlando, this is the spot I always suggest first if they're seeking the closest thing to having an authentic, Italian dining experience. You simply can not go wrong here with anything on their menu (I love that they have photos of all their dishes next to each item on their menu on their website - Few restaurants do this!) The service was impeccable as usual (I wish I could recall our servers name, but she assisted us in finding the perfect wine to pair and graciously offered us samples which I always appreciate). I genuinely can not say enough positive remarks about Rome's Flavors - They continue to impress and have without a doubt earned my business as a loyal customer!

Great authentic Italian restaurant. Very quaint and cute restaurant. The pasta is handmade and fresh. The carbonara is a great option if you are looking for a slightly creamy pasta with a bit of salty flavors. I think the portions are perfect. The portion is filling and doesn't go overboard. The tomato bruschetta was a delicious app and it comes with a side of greens. The bread was for the bruschetta was on the crispier side. The tiramisu was amazing. The coffee and chocolate flavors were to die for.

What a great gem in Winter Park. The service was impeccable from start to finish. It's such a cute restaurant with a warming ambiance. They have about 8-10 tables inside and another 4-5 outside. Most of the ingredients are home made including the pastas. With every bite you can taste the freshness. All the negative reviews about the portion size is a non issue. We felt the pasta was a good size for 1 person. Matter of fact my wife couldn't finish hers. It's is a tad pricey but if you consider the fresh ingredients and the home made pasta it's decent. The quality is equal to the price. I'd highly recommend trying this place. We are already thinking about what to order next time.

Small portions!!! If there's any takeaway I would want someone to know before going here is that the amount of food you get for the price is unfortunately not enough in my opinion. I got the fettuccine Alfredo and added bacon and truffle cream. I'm conflicted on how to review this restaurant because the restaurant is nice, clean, the service was great, and my meal tasted great, however, I was still hungry after finishing. If we had known the portions would be so small we would've ordered an app. Overall, I don't think we'll be back here.

The restaurant itself is very small, so indoor seating is limited however they have a small spattering of outdoor seating as well. A reservation is highly recommended as they don't have much space for walk-ins. The food was honestly average. I had significantly higher expectations, especially for the pasta and the high prices at this restaurant. There are several high end Italian restaurants on Park Ave and Rome's Flavours does not stand up to Prato and other competitors. The food was under-seasoned and uninventive, especially the pasta. We had the Fettucine pasta with shrimp and pistachio the fettucine Carbonara as well as the Campari appetizer. Utterly underwhelmed. I went on a Friday night, so it was busy but the service was INCREDIBLY SLOW. With a reservation I still waiting 40 minutes until a server even came to get my drink order after I was sat. Several servers walked by the entirety of that time, glancing and walking away.

Seriously one of the best Italian spots in Winter Park. We made reservations here for date night and can't wait to back. The staff were very friendly and attentive throughout our time there. The waitress greeted us right away with water and went over the specials for the evening. We both ordered a glass of wine that she recommended and ended the being exactly what we like. To start off we had the Tomato bruschetta and it was so good. The Fresh tomatoes with basil and balsamic on toasted bread was perfect. Only thing to add for us would be get rid of the salad and add another bruschetta to the plate but still would order it again. I had the homemade pesto gnocchi and it was absolutely delicious. The gnocchi was large and soft and came with just the right amount of pesto I seriously couldn't get enough. My girlfriend had fettuccine shrimp and it was just as good. Loaded with flavors and the shrimp were huge. We both like a little bit of spice so she added some crushed pepper to it which made it even better. If you haven't been yet you're missing out!

Love this little Italian restaurant off Park Avenue! The homemade pasta and pizzas were so yummy. And the shrimp and pistachio dish was amazing!

My partner and I had a lovely Valentine's dinner at Rome's Flavor, where we had made a reservation a few weeks ago. Upon check-in, we were informed that our table was only available until 7 PM, which made us feel a bit rushed throughout our meal. However, the service was exceptional, and the unique flavors on all the dishes were truly outstanding. We ordered the shrimp fettuccine and pistachio, eggplant, zucchini pizza, and tomato bruschetta, all of which tasted delicious. I had a refreshing sangria, while my partner enjoyed a cappuccino. Although the total bill was a little over $120 for two entrées, a soup, and an appetizer, along with three drinks, we understand that Valentine's Day is a special occasion, and the price was reasonable compared to other restaurants. We highly recommend Rome's Flavor for a cozy and intimate date night.

AVA was completely packed and loud and we strolled around the corner to this cute little Italian spot. Everyone spoke Italian. Even the guests! I felt like I plopped right into Rome! They make their own yeast and have hand pulled noodles. Here is the :pesto gnocchi. Fettuccine Arrabbiata with prawns. I'd recommend the hearty Bolognese as well! (Not pictured here.) The wine selection is nice and I'd recommend splitting a bottle. Cute little tables outside with heat lamps! It's small so reservations are probably recommended but we lucked out! #italian #italianorlando #rome #winterparkfl #orlandoeats #foodie #wherekatieeats this place gets - I'd recommend that they pump up some Italian tunes and that they serve bread to start with some herbed butter or olive oil. Service was great! #romesflavours :)

We made a reservation for dinner last night the evening of and it was delightful. We had to sit outside, but they have heaters all along their ceiling for cooler nights so it was perfect! We ordered the Eggplant bruschetta for an appetizer. It comes out in 2 pieces, but we cut each in half as we were with another couple and just wanted to try it. For dinner I ordered the carbonara, and my husband ordered the Bolognese. Everything was phenomenal! The bruschetta came out with warm plates for us to use which was a nice touch. The bread has a nice crunch to the outer layer, but soft on the inside, and the toppings were very tasty. I definitely could have eaten just more of that for my dinner and been happy! However, also so glad I got the carbonara as it had the perfect flavors. It felt very authentic, which is always exciting. My husband really enjoyed his Bolognese as well. To end we ordered the tiramisu. Light and fluffy dessert! I couldn't recommend this place more. We will absolutely be back!

Food was excellent! Homemade pasta was amazing. The bolognese had great flavor. Cantaloupe and prosciutto was a great appetizer.

We ate at Rome's Flavours on New Year's Eve and enjoyed every second! We started with a pizza as our appetizer and it was so flavorful. The pie was cooked perfectly and the toppings were so balanced. I was afraid the onions would overpower but it was perfect. The Fettuccine could have been a little hotter but the sauce was on point. Servings are traditional European sizes so sharing wasn't an option. I ordered the homemade meatballs and they came with the side of your choice. I LOVED the vegetables! We sat outside and it was very quaint and quieter being off Park Ave. the server was knowledgeable about the wine and helped us select the perfect pairing for our meal. I would definitely go back!

The service was exceptional. The organic homemade pasta and pizza were amazing and fresh!

I went on a spontaneous date with the boyfriend and we always try meatballs at most Italian restaurants we visit. This is by far the best flavor. It's definitely rich so expect that. The noodles were homemade right there in the restaurant and cooked to perfection and not overdone. The service was excellent and all suggestions were welcome. The place is small inside but has beautiful natural lighting. Im definitely going again with a girlfriend.

Pizza was very nice but the service was seriously lacking. We were seated at a high top. The waiter stopped by once to take the order, once to deliver the food, and once to drop off the bill.

Salmon was undercooked and had to be returned to the kitchen. The salmon dinner was not replaced, only recooked and took 10 to 15 minutes. Vegetable pasta was served luke warm. Requested cheese and it was never served. Expensive for the quality of food.

Now, I will say the first time I'd heard of this restaurant was when they had someone giving away free pizza samples on the corner in downtown Winter Park and it was absolutely delicious! Ever since then, I've wanted to return. I went with my dad and boyfriend and we had our puppy with us and got outdoor seating which is exactly what we needed since we had the dog with us. The staff were super friendly and even brought our puppy a water bowl! I was a little disappointed in the flavors though, especially with the bruschetta because as tender and juicy as the tomatoes and cheese were, I wish there was a punch of acid in the form of a balsamic or a vinegar. The pizza was also great and very tasty but lacked a balance of maybe sweet/tangy you could say. The dough could use a little sugar maybe. The food was very fresh tasting though and the meats were great. I think if I tried a few other things on the menu I would give it a full 5 stars because the other patrons meals looked so delicious. I love the plates they use and inside the restaurant you can see a person making fresh pasta. I probably will try a pasta and a different app next time but the pizza is still solid! Definitely a nice place to stop in with family if you're in the area though.

walked in on a friday night and they were still able to take me in! however, definitely recommend making reservations because it's a smaller restaurant. four stars only because service was slow. took a while to be greeted at the table and server forgot the to go box, but, they did seem to be short staffed and busy! loved the food and the recommended sweet red wine by the server. tip: if you buy a bottle of wine to go, closed cork, it's 40% off the listed price! lovely place, definitely recommend when you have time to sit and relax!

Yummy! Today was our 2nd time there and the food was great once again! We had the cheese pizza for an appetizer, Fettuccine Alfredo for the main course, and a few desserts to try! It was all delicious! This restaurant will be added to our rotation list!

Food: So Delicious. Every time Staff: very helpful and thoughtful! Ambiance: great indoor/outdoor options & in a great location.

This place is second to none. The food was just incredible. There are a few good Italian places in the area, including a few right in winter park. This place puts them all to shame, the food here is authentic Italian, not the Americanized Italian you find at a lot of places. Some may find that it's expensive for the portion sizes (which aren't huge), but the outstanding quality of the food makes it well worth it! I especially recommend the gnocchi. Service was also great and so is the location right in the heart of winter park. I can't wait to go back!

First off, let me say that this place is wonderful. Flavors are spot on. The wine selection is very nice. The service is great and the ambiance delightful. Couldn't recommend enough. So why not 5 stars? Simply because for what it offers in its class unfortunately, I have been wowed and over dazzled elsewhere. So, remember the competition is stiff at the top. The curve is logarithmic. I'd certainly put this up against any 5 star but for now, compared to Circa 1875 in Savannah, GA, it's just shy. This is not a slight nor a criticism. Just putting things into perspective to be fair. And we'll, I prefer French to Italian, but again, I wish I could give it 4.5 Really , really wonderful!

Just eat there, it's that good and you're I'll love it. The pasta has a texture that is unmatched in the area . The dessert is excellent.

The gnocchi was exceptional - homemade and fresh. We got the sicilia personal pizza, which was nice, but the crust was a little thick for my taste. We also got the green salad (arugula and spring mix) it really just was arugula and spring mix, but it was nicely seasoned. This was a surprisingly quiet spot on Sunday around noon, so it was easy to get a table (both inside and outside). The staff sat us immediately and checked up on us throughout the meal.

Small place with about 10 tables inside and 8 or so outside. We tried Pizza, Pasta and desert. The wine list is pretty good about 18-20 different options. Pizza can be a personal size (which is still pretty large) or a sharable size. Colosseo pizza was great with tasty focaccia type crust and sauce that had a little sweetness to it. Pasta is made in house so the air drying allows any sauces to better adhere to the pasta. The carbonara was good as was the Cacio I Pepe despite them not using the traditional pecorino romano cheese. I think their substitute was Grana Padano so it was a bit different than I am used to. The guanciale they used was exceptional and cooked to perfection. We tried cannoli and tiramisu for desert and the tiramisu was the clear winner here. Surprisingly good and the highlight of the meal. They have only beer and wine so no aperitivo but they have a full coffee bar to round out the meal nicely.

Just amazing. Owners are very nice and actually Italian. Place is cozy and intimate, perfect for date night. Food was incredible (specifically the burrata and shrimp pistachio pasta). My parents just came back from Italy and said this food was better!

Homemade pasta, delicious pizza, perfect service. Owner is always there, love this place.

We ate here last night for the first time and will definitely return. Authentic Italian food that had us reminiscing about our Italy trip. I ordered fettuccine alfredo and it was easily the best I've ever had. I usually avoid it because the Americanized version is so heavy - this was fettuccine alfredo as it should be. I paired it with the Super Tuscan, which was delightful. My partner had the gnocchi with pesto, and we also shared sides of meatballs and the chicken with capers and olives. He finished the meal with espresso, and I had Sicilian cannoli. The food was amazing, and the service was on point. We will definitely return!

The pasta was fresh..delicious. The flatbread...pretty good. Bruschetta..delicious. I ordered a simple tomato basil pasta...it was meh, almost tasted like ketchup which was a shame because the pasta was nice. Service was ok. We asked for a table and they sat us outside on a cold windy evening but everyone else after us were seated inside without reservation. We know because we were seated next to the host. I would give it another try at some point.

I really enjoyed my time here tonight at Rome's Flavors. I was brought in by an amazing marketing strategy- offering pizza on the sidewalk of park avenue. It sparked me to book a reservation right after eating it! I really liked my food - especially the pasta. It is a romantic vibe, and even though the portions are a little small, it was just enough for me. Definitely recommend and would come here again.

Food was EXCELLENT! Service was GREAT! Prices are very reasonable! The Shrimp Alfredo was AMAZING! (I didn't think the shrimp had much flavor but the pasta/pistachio flavor was perfect!). The gnocchi is very flavorful of pesto, it was good. I think this is a true Winter Park gem!

We met for lunch at Rome's Flavors and we had heard good things. I had a small salad and 2 meatballs with ice tea and my check was $42.33. Way too expensive for location and/or atmosphere. The service wasn't great either, our waitress seemed to want to be anywhere but here.

I found this place through open table app. Was looking for something that felt pretty authentic. Made reservations and when we arrived they seated us quickly. The only thing I did not like was that they sat us next to the wine bottles so a waitress had to come around me to get the bottles and our waiter did not really pay attention to our table. I had to ask for water. He was very kind though just needs to give everyone the same attention not ignore the table as if I could not afford the meal. As far as the food the appetizer was okay. The bread could have been a tiny softer and the salad a little more flavor. Portion was good. The salmon was cook perfectly and it paired beautiful with the pesto fettuccine I requested. Again the portion was just right. We had a little room left so we got a dessert. I can't remember the name of it but it was amazing. Since I don't like very sweet desserts this was absolutely right on point. Overall I would go again. Recommendations: Make reservations Order the pesto fettuccine Order the custard style dessert It is pricy but to me it was worth the amount. I also enjoyed you can sit outside if you liked. Easy to find as well.

This place is elite. Hidden right off Park Ave but it's a pizza spot you won't want to miss while you're in Winter Park. Super casual but also made me feel like I was in Italy. Staff is great.

Had a great experience at Rome's Flavours (English spelling preferred) this evening.  First thing - this establishment is located a little off Park Ave.  If you are into places to see and be seen this is not your place.  Go elsewhere on Park Ave and pay twice the price for maybe a quarter of the service and half the quality of the food when it finally arrives at the "trendy" establishments.  For what it is worth, the staff is not covered head to foot with tattoos and speak very clear English.   Make no mistake, the food is cooked to order, this is not a dressed up fast food joint (as many establishments on Park Ave basically are).  The Chef understands how to properly blend ingredients and prepare the food to the proper degree of "doneness".  I had the salmon this evening, it was as promised sourced from North Atlantic (likely Faroe Islands).  On more than one occasion I have received Chilean farm raised (not good) when told it was sourced from some other place.  Yes, someone who eats a lot of salmon can tell the difference.     My wife got a pasta dish. The pasta was cooked perfectly and the sauce was delicious.  They are not stingy with the sauce either.  The menu is  varied just enough, but too much.  Good wine list as well.   The service was excellent.  How many times do you spend half your meal trying to flag down the wait staff?  Not here, Rome Flavours is an intimate setting where all the staff function as a well oiled machine.  The server we had was well acquainted with the menu, but did not guess when I asked exactly where the salmon was sourced from.   The seating was half inside, half outside.  The outside seating was perfectly arranged.  Every outdoor seating establishment directly on Park Ave have about half (if not more) of their tables either so close to the curb the table gets knocked l folks open car doors or folks knocked into the tables when walking down Park Ave.  The clientele were classy folks when we were there.  This is as opposed to many Park Ave places where the ladies have more than half their tops exposed and / or the patrons are loud enough to dampen your dining experience.   Could be our new favorite place on Park Avenue.

This place genuinely has the best pizza I've had in my life. The staff is all authentic Italian and it is represented in their food. Such a hidden gem restaurant. I will definitely be returning during my next visit to Winter Park.

This is some of the best food I've ever had! From the moment I showed up, the hostess and waitress were so wonderful! I was dining alone & they put me in a table off to the left by the wine which was perfect & calm. My waitress recommended the tiramisu & a grillo wine. I think I died & went to heaven! This was soooo good

Pizza was good. Crust different and I liked it. I tried to add anchovies and was told no substitutions on pizza. Chef felt the flavors would not balance. Isn't that for the customer to decide?

Rome's Flavours is a quaint, authentic Italian restaurant off of Winter Park's Park Ave. Service was professional, warm and helpful. Foods reviewed: Porcini and Truffle Fettuccine: this is currently a Chef's special. The homemade pasta was delectable. It overall had a great light flavor but I was missing the porcini. Herb Lamb: this dish comes with a choice of a side, which I picked the Broccoli and Mushrooms. It wasn't my favorite lamb but it was cooked perfectly. Homemade Meatballs: the food items listed under entrees can also come as a side which is what I did for the meatballs. This was my highlight and an absolute 10/10. The meatball was unlike any other that I've had. It was light, flavorful and so fresh.

I enjoy the pizza, the pasta not so much. I have tried the pasta with shrimp and pistachio, the napoli pasta, and I have had the Alfredo.

The food was great it wasn't too little or too much it was just right. And the ambiance is amazing it's so cute, very family friendly, and the service...AMAZING they treat you like family it's very warm. Would highly recommend.
