What’s the difference between a real Stromboli sandwich and the stuff most all other businesses are passing off as Stromboli?
“Pizza shops,” for the most part, are little stores that may be able to put cheese, sauce, and toppings on a pie shell, but they don’t know much about the art of baking. What that usually means for the consumer is that you get what I refer to as “heated dough” or “flopped over pizza.” That is not a Stromboli!
And as any one knows that has tried it… it takes time to make bread. There’s a big difference between Italian bread and pizza dough!
“Romano’s Stromboli” is the “Original Stromboli!”
It is still being made the exact same way it was made by my grandfather, Nazzereno Romano, back in 1950. In fact..we still have some of the same staff helping us put them together. That’s over 57 years of Stromboli baking.
It makes a difference… I promise you!

Plane Delays Aren’t All Bad!
One of our recent guests, Jeff Turner, was drawn into our restaurant by our sign, “Birthplace Of The World’s First Stromboli Sandwich.” His business associate was delayed at the airport and he was just wandering around looking for a place to sit down.
Well, he found a place! And he decided to write about it.
“Romano’s is never going to win a prize for best location or best decor,” Jeff said, “but the Stromboli they make is award winning food. It is delivered to the table fresh from the oven in three pieces, cheese flowing from the cuts. The first bite was heaven.”
