We ate here while in Rome on our honeymoon and had a fantastic dinner. We had two different tasting menu's which worked out great because we were able to try a number of different dishes. The wine was paired perfectly and if you choose to buy an additional bottle the wine list is extensive and very helpful. If you are... More

Everything was perfect. The food, the wine, the service, the place! Reservations required, we saw a lot of people not getting a table even thoug the place was not full. Perfect Steak with black truffle with black truffle rice, one of the best meals I have ever had. We loved the fact that they gave us two glasses of sparkling... More

As my wife stated, there is nothing to complain about. Everything was just perfect - the food, the wine, the service, the atmosphere. And you have to try the zuccini flowers.

Rome is so much more than just the attraction and this restaurant proves beyond any doubt that food is at the centre of any excellent experience. The service and atmosphere was wonderful. The food was super fresh and full of flavour combined with the presentation made for a 5 star experience.

My husband and I spent last weekend in Rome and our evening in Adhoc was by far one of the best dining experiences we have ever had! I spent quite a few evenings reading many restaurant reviews and Adhoc was an obvious choice to book. We were not disappointed; the food and service were faultless. We chose the tasting menu... More

My fiancé brought me here after proposing so this restaurant will always be memorable. The dining room is stunning, floor to ceiling wine collection, exposed brickwork and candlelight, very romantic. We selected the truffle tasting menu (black & white) and it was fantastic although we did struggle to eat the final courses as they were so generous. The staff were... More

We went there 1½ year ago. It was once again a great experience. Divided into smaller sections and with wine bottles all over the walls. Food was delicious and with an impressive winelist. Remember to book a table which will also give you a discount.

We found this restaurant on tripadvisor and made reservations as recommended. We were so glad we did because the restaurant is booked solid for 2 months. The food is great, and the service excellent. You get a complimentary glass of wine when you arrive and it was excellent. They even gave us a bottle to take home after. I highly... More

Went there as I saw the ranking in trio advisor. There is limited public transport nearby and hard to get there. The starter was above average but the main was horrible But is still worth for 60 euro as they offer me free taster and 2 glass of sparking wine. What is more, after the bill, they unexpectedly free us... More
