    I've been going to the Roma since it opened as a little Pizza shop some time in the 1970's I believe. It always had great pizza, I've eaten enough of them. But since moving away and coming home only every other month I have visited it less and less. It was nice to discover though that they expanded and have made a once small pizza shop with a limited menu into one  of the areas better restaurants for not only the light pizza fare but also many Italian dishes and sandwhiches.
    They also expanded their seating areas and even included an upstairs dining room.
    Their Pizza is still high quality as it always has been and their food matches the quality of their pizza. It goes to show. If the will to grow is their the way to grow will follow if you keep yhe quality you started with.
    The Roma Pizzeria has done it.
    The atmosphere and cordialness of the waitstaff is and always has been wonderful.
    One of my favorite place to eat when I return to the Pottsville area.

    Great Pizzeria with lots of good sandwiches and awesome service!

    We came here on a recommendation from the folks at the Yuengling Brewery after the tour.

    We had 10 people in our group and there was no room downstairs - when the manager saw us trying to cram into some tables, he opened up the upstairs seating and took our drink order himself.

    The food was awesome and HUGE portions.  

    Most of all, the service and the staff were really great - friendly and responsive, I really recommend trying them if you're in the area.

    Ok service, massive portions. Good for the area. Had a cheese steak (probably a bad choice) but boy was it greasy and filling.

    As all people mention, the Yuengling crew tells everyone to go here, not really sure why, other than proximity. Must have some sort of deal with them.

    Pizza looked good, wish I had tried it. Then again, I'm a NY'er so I believe in good pizza. Just saying.

    Best Pizza in Pottsville. Also good grilled chicken sandwiches on kaiser rolls (try the one with pine nuts and pesto sauce). Salads are huge. Also 2nd floor bar area is very nice. Good for a quick slice for lunch or a full dinner.

    We were told that it was the best pizza in the county and if that's the case then I don't want to try anything else in the county. Service was terrible, tables were dirty, and most importantly the pizza was well below what was expected or hyped.

    Best Pizza. Anywhere.

    I've been up and down the east coast and out to LA. I haven't had better pizza yet. Maybe it's just because I grew up on this stuff, but the quality (of pizza) here far exceeds any other restaurant that I've been to.

    Decor/Service snobs, keep your distance. Then again, I doubt anyone like that would be in Pottsville to begin with.

    After checking out the Yuengling Brewery, my friend and I were ready for lunch.  We asked a couple locals where we should go, and they both suggested Roma.  And let me tell you, whatever the place lacks in atmosphere and decore, it makes up for with good food and friendly service.  I had wonderful spinach ravioli, and my friend had a GIGANITIC stromboli that could have fed 2-3 people.  I was a little disappointed that they didn't offer all the Yuengling brews.  I mean, they're only a couple blocks from the brewery.  What's up with that?!  I really wanted to try the Black & Tan!

    Wasn't very impressed. We stopped in for lunch and the slices looked very appetizing. Since we had more than an hour we decided to sit in the dining room. The dining room smelled a bit funny. Nothing to make me leave. The waitress was very polite and friendly, and was quick enough. We ordered a cheesesteak pizza and I ordered a slice of Sicilian. The Sicilian wasn't bad, but it was also nothing special. The pizza wasn't what we expected, but it wasn't a bad thing. We expected a pizza with cheese and steak on it. Instead we got a pizza that had a crust on top of it.  It's our fault for not checking out each of the slices to see what each looked like. The problem with the crust on top is it's too much extra and a slice feels like it weighs about 3 pounds. Three guys should easily be able to knock out an entire pizza. We could only eat half of it. The taste of it wasn't bad, but like the Sicilian it wasn't impressive. I think it's a safe bet to not get something terrible, but it also doesn't deem like you're going to get much above average.

    Popped over here for a quick lunch prior to the Yuengling tour.  There was a line at lunchtime so you know this place is popular.  They had some tasty-looking varieties of pizza.  I had the buffalo chicken and tomato pesto.  Both were tasty though did not have as much flavor as I would have hoped.  Very, very thick slices here.  Two slices was very filling.  And with a small soda was only about $6.  Quick, friendly and no-nonsense service.

    This review is long overdue!  In December - we visited the Yuengling brewery in Pottsville.  (Yuengling by the way is an awesome beer that is sadly not available west of Alabama.)  We were starving after the 3-hour drive from Jersey and the brewery tour, so someone in the gift shop recommended Roma as a local favorite.  It was AWESOME!  My husband, sister, and I have about 50 years of combined pizza eating experience across the US and this is the best that any of us have ever tasted.   The doughy crust, cheese and flavorful sauce were deliciously perfect, and the food was incredibly well priced.  I'd be there all the time if it wasn't in the middle of Pennsylvania!!!

    Fabulous pizza.  Try the buffalo chicken pizza, or the white pizza with broccoli.  Dinner specials are also a treat.  Favorites are the Fettuccini with Shrimp, Seafood Fra Diablo with linguini and the penne with meatballs.  TERRIFIC
