Indeterminate tomatoes grow forever (or until the frost kills them),
determinate tomatoes stop after some time, they are called bush tomatoes
too. 'Roma' is somewhat between, 'San Marzano 2' is a pasta tomatoe
(peretti) that is indeterminate.

I think bush tomatoes are fine for SQFT gardening, but I never found
a really good cultivar (in my opinion).

Taste? It's up to you.
My favorite tomato for taste is 'Lucy'. Some think it stinks.
