Roman's Cafe - American restaurant in Columbia Heights - 513 40th Ave NE, USA

Where to begin with Roman's Cafe? I absolutely loved it. The atmosphere was comfortable and quiet. The decor was lots of fun, with classic diner feel and lots of photos western cinema and pop culture before the 1960s. You will also fine lots of snarky and playful signs that denounce rude behavior and ask hippies to enter in the back. They also support law enforcement. The food was excellent. The steak and eggs were cooked to perfection and the buttermilk pancakes make the chain diners look and taste like cardboard. While not close to where I usually am, I want to come back. Superb!

Hands down best breakfast I’ve had in Minneapolis or surrounding areas. I ordered the big Johnson, I’m usually not a big hash brown guy but they were fantastic and the sausage was on point. My girlfriend thoroughly enjoyed her omelette and we both split the pancakes and were fighting each other off for the last bite hahaha. Will surely be back again soon, loved all the decor on the walls and the old school feel. My kinda spot!

Food is fantastic!! The everything omelette was flavorful and not too filling!! The blueberry pancakes are amazing…not too cakey! The bacon was nice and thick and great tasting!! The sausage with the big Johnson meal was very flavorful and juicy!! Great coffee and awesome service!! I’d definitely go back!!

Best bacon pancakes I've ever had. Classic diner experience, very chill and kinda cozy. Damn fine cup of coffee.

Susan was a phenomenal waitress. She works hard and always had a smile. She was so friendly to the child that was with us and paid attention to see to it that she was happy, brought her a princess coloring book to use. So kind. The food is great. What you’d hope to expect from a Midwest, local cafe. The portions were large. The flavors were tasty. Best crispy hash browns. Service wasn’t only friendly but fast too. We will visit again when we are in the area. Thanks Roman for making us a great meal!

What a delicious Breakfast. Open until noon. Excellent Service. Wham Bam, thank you Ma'am! The Big Johnson Breakfast with a side of bacon is full of flavor and variety of tastes. Fresh ingredients! Go here!

Morning hours, closes at 12 noon, dine in & take out & curbside pickup. Known for their breakfasts. Good sized portions. Good portions at fair prices. It's unfortunate that Roman's closes at noon. You can have breakfast & lunch there but not supper It's closed by supper time. Their breakfast ""The Big Johnson"" can feed 2 people.

Will not be going back, sadly! This is our favorite place for breakfast, the food is excellent , the best , it does take longer then most places to arrive but it’s worth it but today we were told they were closed , it was 11:30 and the posted time they close is noon. Every table was full and we always expect to wait and we don’t mind so it was very disappointing to be told they were closed, as a pretty regular customer I am pretty surprised by this poor customer service and have doubts that I will return. obviously Romans doesn’t want our business, I have been a manager, server, bartender etc in restaurant business for over 25 years and I know it can be exhausting at times, the service is usually sufficient not super friendly but this is a first, no customer service skills what so ever, rude.
