We went to this restaurant on our first night in Rome. The place is awesome. The food was very good and for a reasonable price. Our waitress was very good with her recommendations and spoke enough English to make the dining experience most enjoyable. The remaining staff was extremely friendly and helpful including one of the owners who made a... More

We dined here on three of six nights in Rome as it was convenient to our hotel. After full days of exploring Rome, it was good to have an area restaurant within strolling distance. Wonderful food, overall good service, and lovely atmosphere. The only complaint was the staff yelling orders across the dining room. This noise was unwelcome but it... More

Great service, great food, great location & overall a great experience. Spent 3 nights in Rome and visited this restaurant on the 1st night. Experience was so good we returned for dinner the following 2 nights too. Each night we were 'looked after' by the fantastic waitress Daria. So many great dishes to choose from we just left it to...

Poor service, the food is not very fresh. You wAit a lot, and my friend got sick after this meal. The bill was edited twice with a lot of things added, and the credit card reader was "out of order" without previous notice. Expansive and does not worth it...

Last week I went to this nice restaurant, close to Rome downtown (not far from Colosseum, San Giovanni and San Lorenzo area) for dinner. Our table was in the inner hall of the restaurant, illuminated by an elegant soft lighting. However, in this season Rome is pretty warm, even at night, so it's pleasent also having dinner outside. Coming to... More

The staff is the main reason for our low assessment, but the quality of the food was also far below average. Most staff members were indifferent, one of them was overpowering. At many restaurants the staff tries to entice passers-by, usually in a nice way. The guys of this restaurant were annoying though. We entered anyway since we had just... More

We visited Rome this past week and were lucky enough to come across such a wonderful restaurant. Not only was the food absolutely amazing here, but the staff were so much fun and very kind. It's a family-run place, and you really get the feeling of that while you're there. It's truly authentic cuisine, a fun environment and the prices... More
