Best Ribs in Town

On the 4th of September there was a review on Tony Roma’s restaurant in ‘The Sun’ if I’m not mistaken which makes my mouth watery since we are fasting for Ramadan. Being a food junkie, I have been longing to wallop the delicious Tony Roma's ribs since the last time my cousin had brought me there. At that time I had the Roma Burger. Anyway, here is a brief history on the restaurant. The famous Tony Roma’s started out back in 1972 in North Miami, United States, when Tony opened his first place. It started out in one weekend when Tony threw some Baby Back Ribs (Pork) on the grill and the rest is history. Tony Roma's can now be found all over the world. There are nearly 200 restaurants in 32 countries and now they are in Malaysia. (Don’t worry; Malaysia Tony Roma's outlets are pork-free which means there are no Baby Back Ribs here)

Tony's Asian Salad

For starters, my mum and I had ‘Tony’s Potato Skin’ which is very delicious *yummy*. We also had Tony's Asian Salad topped with grilled salmon *double yum yum* I have asked for their famous ‘Bountiful Beef Ribs’ with a glass of coke, which is bottomless refill and only cost you RM6.90. The ribs were RM68.90 which is served in a full rack (5 pieces of ribs), however if you want to have a small portion of the ribs (3 pieces of the ribs) then asked for Roma rack, which will cost you RM46.90 only. Mum had steak, but I have forgotten the name *sorry* it comes with side dishes as well, mum asked for rice and broccoli. The rice is nice, very tasty!


When my food arrived, the sweet smell of the barbeque sauce from the ribs was blissful. The ribs were well done and it comes with a generously big portion. I really enjoyed eating the tasty and juicy meat as it was soft and tender. It was so tender that it just rips of from the bone. My taste buds were rousing. The ribs were also served with side items like coleslaw and French fries. You can choose any other side items as well. The taste of the ribs was out of this world. This is the best ribs that I have eaten so far. Two thumbs up to Tony Roma. To complete our meal, we had a scrumptious ‘Apple Crisp a la Mode’. It is a delicious apples baked with a granola topping with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream and caramel topping. It is a complete meal fit for a king.

Even though, the price may seem quite expensive but trust me, satisfaction guaranteed. It is worth to spend our money on good food because by the end of the day what we consume that matters. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to enjoy a mouth-watering experience. This is just my opinion, the rest it is up to you. Nevertheless, I am sure that I will go there again to fill up my empty tummy.
