Resto Review - Tony Roma's
From car reviews, to game reviews, then to restaurant reviews... what's next? TV show commentaries? I hope not.
Anyway, Katrina and I went out for our early Valentine's date (yes, I wanted to avoid the rush; besides, we're still going to spend Valentine's together...) at Tony Roma's located in Glorietta 4, Makati.
My first impression was that the place was cozy. Dim yellow lights, comfy sofas, and wood all over give that relaxing feeling. It's a great place to hang out. You can just lay back, talk to all your buddies in a comfy posture.
Check out the menu, and everything's pricey. Don't worry about it, though. They've got huge servings that come along that tag - way bigger than Friday's. Most dishes run above P300, and for a dinner for two, dishing out a thousand pesos is enough to fill your tummies.
The food is good, as long as it's either a barbeque or a side dish. The baby back ribs and the BBQ wings are good, way good! Mate it with coleslaw (which is the best I've tasted so far), and those tender baby backs are just bursting with flavor. No wonder they claim to be the home of baby back ribs.
I wasn't too happy with the grilled chicken breasts, though. They were dry and quite bland. Maybe a tip here would be to go for beef or barbeque, and not for anything else.
The root beer float is good, and for P105 pesos, you get a monster mug full of root beer with Selecta vanilla ice cream on top. Want to know how tall the mug is? Measure the length of your elbow up to your wrist, and you get a good estimate.
Verdict: Overall, I'd have to give 8/10. If only for the barbequed stuff, I'd give it a solid ten.
