I read the other reviews on Orso 80 and I don't know how anyone was able to order a second course after the Roman Antipasto. I went there with 3 of my girlfriends and we ordered the Roman Antipasto for four , 2 bottles of wine and dessert , and our bill came to 28 Euros each (that includes tip).... more

We ate at this restaurant last year on a vacation and found the food and service to be excellent. However, this year when we visited Rome in late May and ate at Orso 80, we were disappointed with the food and the service. The selections on the antipasto appetizer seemed to vary from patron to patron. The main course of... more

My husband and I found this little gem when we first visited Rome 4 years ago, and I planned a birthday surprise visit for him to Rome in 2007, just so we could go and have a meal here again. We are now planning our 3rd visit to Rome, and are allowing for at least 2 trips to Orso 80.... more

We were in Rome for our last night and decided to try Orso 80. We had two different recommendations for this restaurant. We were sat very quickly at our reservation time. The host was friendly and the food looked and smelled great. The problem started when our waiter came over. He acted like we were doing him a favor for... more

My wife and I just returned from an 11 day trip to Rome for a belated 25th wedding anniversary, and went to Orso 80 on the recommendation of a fashion designer from Florence. This was Friday 11-21-2008--our last evening in Italy. What a lovely experience! We almost went into the wrong restaurant--and obviously the old Roman gods must have smiled... more
