Burgerventures: Tony Roma's Roma Burger
23:14
Ordinary working day, 4-hour overtime, and missed dinner. This calls for an emergency good food moment.
Cheers,

It's nearly 10:30pm and finding a place to eat can be a challenge on a weekday. Luckily, Tony Roma's is open until eleven.
Tony Roma's is just by the Glorietta 4 entrance, you can't miss it. It's been there since like forever.
Taste
The patty wasn't so bad. Average-sized (a quarter-pound, maybe), not sure if grilled or fried. The patty, although 'well-done', was softer than you'd expect.
However, there's one thing that usually makes me not like a burger that I found--when there's just too much ligaments (litid) getting in the way of my chewing. It's hard to chew. It gets in your teeth. Big 'No'. :(
But that's just me. I rarely hear the same comments from other people so it probably isn't so bad for some. The flavour, however, was okay.
Speaking of big, the coleslaw on the side is a big plus for me. Loved how similar it was to Filling Station's coleslaw.
Service
They are open until 11 pm, as I was told. I came there at around 10:30 so there's barely anybody eating there. It wasn't applaudable, there wasn't anyone on stand-by so, uhh, anyway, probably everybody was ready to go home, so I should thank them for still attending to me with smiles! :P
Price
Benchmarking at P250-300, this 375-peso burger (with fries and coleslaw) is definitely on the expensive side. But are you getting your money's worth?
It depends. If you don't mind the litid, then you're good.

Conclusion:
Tony Roma's had been around for a while now, and it's just now that I finally gave in to trying their burg. They are very famous for their ribs and steaks--for a hell of a reason. So... Note To Self: Don't come to Tony Roma's for burgers, come for steaks! Hahaha.
