Tony Roma's, Mid Valley


today suddenly gt mood to meet somebody. therefore we went out for dinner together..straying in mid valley for some time until we decided to go TR, because i nvr been there b4.

once i open d menu, i noticed that d steaks and ribs there are kinda expensive.almost all are rm50 or above. only d seafood slightly cheaper.


each table is complimented one bread as starter, it's kinda nice i'd say. bt isnt it kinda pity if u go in a gang? d bread is hot + d crispiness of outer part + softness inside, plus d taste of garlic butter spread. nice! saliva drippin thinkin of it. haha..


we've ordered a onion half loaf as our apetizer, 12.90. it's a stacking up of crispy onion rings. i like d taste, n d crunchiness, bt one thing make me lost of apetite, d onions at d top part are very pretty n crunchy, bt when it goes further down, they sticked all together, d crunchy coatings and d onions had been seperated.


i hv no idea wat to order, therefore i listened to my fren's suggestion, i ordered a steak combo. it's a 6oz sirloin steak with either dis/tat. i gt myself a medium steak, with fried shrimp, side dishes are mashed potatoes and tomato pesto,49.90.


When it's served, im asked to cut n see if it's medium. yes, it looks like. it looks very nice instead. bt when i put into my mouth n start chewing? oh no.. i know im gonna suffer, my braces r gonna suffer too. it's so chewy, so hard, so dry. d steak's being seasoned n grilled b4 served, there's no gravy. js juice, bt mine is kinda dried out d. d taste isnt bad, js that it's too hard.

d shrimps are too well done~~overcooked. it hasnt turn into charcoal kinda overcooked, bt d juice inside d shrimps've lost! therefore it becomes kinda hard oso.
ewww... d mashes potatoes. it's kinda worst-eva-mashed-potatoes that i've eva had. or maybe i shud say, it doesnt suit my taste. it's nt smooth, nt blended thoroughly, and too dry. so, u stil need to take ur time n chew b4 u could actually swallow. with d potato skin mixing inside, i've once again lost my apetite.
d tomato pesto.. well.. i din know it's such kinda salad. i couldnt finish it. it's a combination of cooked tomato n fresh vege. i dn really like d taste.

my fren ordered a New York Strip medium rare, with coleslaw n french fries as side dishes, with a shiitake mushroom topping(bt it was then served seperately due to careless)53.90+5.90.

d steak's so bloody(or juicy), nice! bt d middle part is really so rare, oni d outer part is slightly grilled. bt at least it's soft, my teeth din feel d pain for bitin it. one thing kinda irritating is d tendon inside d meat. eww.. it's hard to chew, n imagine, it's nt cooked.
d fries jus ordinary fries, without salt. u can add it urself if u wan.
d shiitake mushroom is really nice. it's jus normal chinese mushroom, bt with d very very heavy garlic seasoning, it goes on very well with d medium rare steak.

d conclusion is, although Tony Roma's is really very crowded, full house, until need to wait for some time b4 seated, bt i cant feel d yearning of going again. it's way too expensive compared to some other nicer steaks. oni d food w/o beverages, alr cost us 141 includin taxes, 2 pax.
