Bad Roman is a theatrical, Roman/Italian-inspired restaurant on the third floor of the Shops at Columbus Circle, known for over-the-top presentations and a high-energy dining room that has made it a heavily-booked, reservations-driven destination since opening.
Reviewers report that even with a confirmed reservation, waits can run long — some cite at least 40 minutes before being seated, and diners waiting close to an hour for dishes to arrive, particularly on weekend evenings. Booking ahead via OpenTable and favoring weekday lunch or an early weeknight (Sunday-Monday) dinner are the best-supported ways to avoid the longest reported waits.
