The 5,500-square-foot restaurant will seat about 200 guests.</p><h2>What to Expect</h2><p>Roma Social’s layout divides the space into distinct zones. Near the entrance, guests will find what the team calls "mafia booths," intimate banquettes lit by chandeliers.</p><p>Farther back, a section dubbed "the green room" carries the restaurant’s tagline "seriously fun food" overhead. An Amalfi Coast-inspired patio features bright finishes, patterned tile work, and large mirrors.</p><figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=2MhCtO_1H53xsy400" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=2MhCtO_1H53xsy400" width="1672" height="940" ><figcaption>Digital mock ups from Roma Social</figcaption></figure><h2>Menu and Vision</h2><p>Roma Social returns the family-run group to its Italian roots. Rehm said the team has been developing its housemade sourdough focaccia and Roman-style pizza recipes for about two years.</p><p>He said the kitchen uses imported flours and has installed special systems to control water quality, including pH levels. "We had to bring in special systems to make sure that the water was correct," Rehm told Business Debut.</p><p>Starters will include a lasagna mozzarella pull, which Rehm described as mozzarella wrapped in a sheet of lasagna pasta and fried for a "big ooey gooey pull." Chicken parm is Rehm’s personal favorite. He said Roma Social’s version focuses on a crisp chicken cutlet topped with housemade ricotta and a plated presentation he called "a beautiful dish."</p><p>On the beverage side, beverage director Harmony Mulcahey, a Level 2 sommelier, has built the wine list and created a homemade limoncello. The team plans a nightly limoncello toast at the bar around 7 p.m., marked by a bell and complimentary shots for guests at the bar.</p><h2>Ownership Background</h2><p>Roma Social is part of Pineapple Hospitality Group, a family business that includes Rehm, his two brothers, his brother-in-law Caleb, and their father. "We grew up in this business," he said.</p><p>Rehm said his father started in Italian restaurants on Long Island, New York, in his early 20s. About 20 years ago, the family moved to Florida and began opening restaurants there.</p><p>Currently, they operate Zim Zari, Shaker and Peel, Craft Street Kitchen and Drinks, and Agave Social.</p><p>Rehm said the family has watched local children grow up in Trinity and later join the company as employees. Bringing an Italian brand to the area felt like coming "full circle" for the Italian-American family, Rehm shared.</p><h2>Opening Timeline</h2><p>The team is targeting December 7 for Roma Social’s opening.</p><h2>Follow for More</h2><p>Keep up with Roma Social on their website and Instagram.</p><figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=11SZhq_1H53xsy400" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=11SZhq_1H53xsy400" width="1672" height="941" ><figcaption>Digital mock up from Roma Social</figcaption></figure></div></body>
