Opera Bar & Events in Romford

Is my top recommendation for Romford area, it is a really Good place to celebrate any day party or birthdays and events that is big enough to accommodate upto 75-80 people’s with big dancing space too, amazing food sizes and plenty of drinks “depends on packages selected” over your expectations.

We had an amazing time at this place for a party in March 2024. The venue was spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated, which we absolutely loved. We were especially impressed because, even though the chef didn't know in advance that some of us were vegan, he whipped up an incredible variety of vegan and raw-vegan dishes in no time. The food was plentiful that we couldn't even finish everything. We highly recommend this restaurant!

Lovely place.... Ideal for parties and weddings.... Also excellent quality stuff... Recommend.. Thanks

Hidden Gem We celebrated my daughters 21st Birthday and it was absolutely phenomenal!!! After months and months of preparation with the proprietor Mario, the party was amazing from start to finish. Mario and I had been conversating since April 2021 during lockdown and we didn’t even know whether lockdown would be opened- the party was planned for August. So, he said let’s wait until June and take it from there. At the time I hadn’t paid a deposit and was worried someone would take my date but Mario reassured me weekly/fortnightly by email/phone. In June we went through the meal choices; buffet/3 course meal and discussed the menu. I selected the 3-course meal. We went through décor, a choice of seat covers, chair ties, table cloths, centre pieces; he was absolutely thorough. I knew he was a perfectionist and I felt this party was in safe hands. As the weeks went by the numbers increased and the food allergies/intolerances grew. Mario smiled and took it all in his stride. We organized our own balloonist, DJ and videographer. Mario made recommendations. The 3-course meal and bar prices were very reasonable. Mario even bought us some Wray & Nephew which put the party into swing. As we approached the day, we both became quite nervous as we had just been given the all clear post lockdown and the day was upon us. On arrival the venue was absolutely beautiful we had chosen a pastel theme, Mario and his team had made my vision a reality and more. The staff were sooooo professional, attentive and everything was done with a smile. I could not fault them- the hospitality was 10/10. There was a young waitress who had started that night, initially she was nervous but as the night unfolded you would never have known. Thank you- You know who you are. My daughter cried on arrival not knowing the full details of the event, the food was Michelin 10/10, a big shout out to the chef- Marios wife Maria. We had a seating plan with numbers that indicated their menu choice and the children all sat on one table. The food was hot and very quick. The family were dancing straight after starters it was that good. Security were cool guys, making sure we were safe and nothing untoward was happening. Thanks guys. From the bottom of my heart I would like to say a huge thank you to Mario, Maria, all the waiting/bar staff and security. Mario you are a Star!- a perfectionist which made me feel safe. Wishing you all the best for the future – Opera Restaurant Bar is a Hidden Gem. Thank you and Good Luck. Louise & girls X

Beautiful place but the manager is a real cave man. I cannot believe who made him a manager. He should really learn about customer service. We had many celebrations at this place never complained but on this occasion I cannot stop myself. Our evening had been spoiled by the manager which we were trying to put our little son to sleep on the first floor. Got told off. Really shame on you. Real jerk.
