Recently I had the pleasure of dining at The Road House Restaurant & Bar in Staten Island, NY. What a great experience!
When I first arrived I was very impressed with the vibe that I got when I walked in. The Restaurant was modern yet gave off a very comfortable feel. I really felt “at home”. They have a cozy bar area with televisions and a sizable dining area. This restaurant also has a very large upstairs area that is perfect for holding private events/parties.
While I was there I got the chance to meet the owner, Mark D’Andrea, who may be one of the kindest and sincere restaurant owners that I’ve encountered in a very long time. After I mentioned that I was a food connoisseur, he offered to give me a tour of the entire place (including the kitchen area where they still utilize their old school Italian methods of food prep).
Mark and his staff’s devotion to customer satisfaction and usage of quality ingredients certainly paid off in the taste of the food! It was simply delicious! I particularly enjoyed their signature “Clam Pizza”. It had to be the best I’ve tasted in ages. I strongly suggest trying it. While there, I also got to sample their homemade meatballs. Again, they tasted incredible!
If you are looking for authentic Italian cuisine combined with a comfortable atmosphere and great staff, I highly suggest trying out Road House in Staten Island.
