Roma is Shanon Scott’s new homage to the great cuisine of Italy’s capital, featuring Roman classics like supplì, mozzarella in carrozza, deep-dish pizza with creative toppings, spaghetti alla carbonara, bucatini all’amatriciana, cacio e pepe, and saltimbocca among other favorites from the Eternal City.
His new menu also features iconic northern Italian dishes like osso buco and Bolognese-style lasagna.
Opened in January 2019, the restaurant has already been previewed in the Houston Chronicle, the Houston Press, the Houston Business Journal, and CultureMap’s “Where to Eat Now in Houston” by veteran Houston food critic Eric Sandler, who writes:
Chef Angelo Cuppone keeps things traditional with his pasta carbonara by using pecorino-romano and guanciale, but cocoa-infused pasta adds a subtle sweetness to his cacio e pepe. Don’t miss the veal saltimbocca, served in a Roman style alongside a classic Jewish artichoke.
