Restaurants in Rome

The chefs at Mitsuba Hibachi Steakhouse & Asian Bistro dazzle the senses with fresh sushi and sashimi, inventive Asian-fusion cuisine, and the fiery theatrics of tableside hibachi cooking. Plates of roasted duck, hawaiian curry shrimp, and fried sea bass blend culinary influences from all over the globe, and noodle dishes of yaki soba, udon, and pad thai deliver the celebrated and complex flavors of Japan and Southeast Asia. A classy, cosmopolitan interior of slate bricks, paper-lantern light fixtures, and glossy varnished wood sets the stage for a visual feast served by the restaurant’s hibachi chefs, who illicit awe as they chop at lightning-fast speeds and perform gasp-inducing fire tricks without singeing away their eyebrows.

Tabatha's Family Tree is aptly named because Tabatha Babbitt and Patricia Personius co-own and operate the restaurant with her family members. In the kitchen the chefs prepare pastas, prime rib, and veal scallopini sautéed with peppers, tomatoes, and mushrooms in a red wine sauce. The same careful preparation of their meals in the restaurant goes into their catered events, which can occur on or off their premises.

Dedicated to providing hearty meals at affordable prices for Syracuse's working people, Cosmo's Cafe's owner and his dedicated staff plate ample portions of classic American breakfast and lunch fare. Cosmo documents his culinary adventures online, making evident his passion for cooking and love for the café. Breakfast feasts sizzle in skillets throughout the day, served to-go or at tables under the pleasant glare of the café's hanging plants and richly hued green walls, and lunch-box specials allow diners to pair deli sandwiches with salads or homemade soups. On Fridays, fish sandwiches served with slaw and fries satisfy dietary requirements for cuisine often misconstrued as vegetarian cuisine, preventing diners from having to eat vintage hot rods or the innards of pinball machines.
