About Roma
Shanon Scott, Owner
Shanon Scott, owner of Roma, has spent more than four decades shaping unforgettable dining experiences, guided by a deep love for Italy and its culinary soul. His career at renowned restaurants—including Arcodoro, DaMarco, Simposio, Amerigo’s, and Arturo’s Uptown—laid the groundwork for a lifelong devotion to authentic Italian cuisine.
That devotion took Shanon across all 20 regions of Italy, where he immersed himself in local vineyards, family kitchens, and time-honored traditions. Those journeys inspired his first solo restaurant, Sud Italia, and ultimately Roma—a celebration of Italy’s extraordinary regional diversity, from north to south.
For over a decade, Roma has been recognized for its award-winning cuisine, gracious hospitality, and unmistakable sense of place. Shanon’s personal, hands-on approach ensures every guest feels welcomed, cared for, and transported—if only for a moment—to Italy itself.
