Popular Henderson Italian restaurant Chef’s Roma Kitchen will soon see a sister concept, called simply Roma Kitchen, launch in Las Vegas’s Southern Highlands area. Roma Kitchen, which will serve up cocktails and classics from Italian cuisine similar to those offered at the Henderson restaurant, has yet to announce its official opening date, but it’s coming soon.
“Spirits will run high at Roma Kitchen, with a full bar, wine and beer to complement each meal,” says a recent press release. “Signature cocktails include the Smoked Buffalo Trace Old Fashioned, made with bourbon, simple syrup, bitters, cherries and orange peel; and the Nitro-Infused Espresso Martini, with vodka, Baileys, Kahlua and espresso, available on tap. More than a dozen red and white wines will be available by the glass, and many more by the bottle.”
“The décor is pretty similar,” Chef Ricardo Romo told What Now on Wednesday. “It will have more of a modern twist. The kitchen is on the inside of the bar, which is where food comes out so you can really see the cation. There’s nice Italian porcelain on the wall, black and white marble on the bar.”
The press release provides still more details regarding the upcoming restaurant’s menu:
“Prepared fresh daily, menu selections include a variety of traditional pasta, hearty meat dishes, fresh seafood and shareable appetizers, along with an array of refreshing salads. Signature selections include calamari, prepared crispy with spicy marinara sauce for dipping; robust stuffed artichokes topped with olive oil, parmesan and garlic; chicken piccata with butter, white wine and capers, served atop pasta; chicken marsala, sauteed with marsala wine and topped with mushrooms, served with seasonal vegetables and roasted potatoes; and bone-in veal parmigiana, perfect for sharing, that is tenderized, breaded and topped with flavorful pomodoro sauce and mozzarella cheese. Dessert selections include housemade cheesecake, tiramisu and locally sourced gelato.”
