If you are discerning when it comes to food and enjoy well executed food using quality produce then stay away from this restaurant. Firstly, my husband ordered a bottle of Tuscan wine. The waitress opened the bottle, didn't smell the cork and then poured it without inviting him to taste the wine. It could have been oxidised or had cork... more

Our best meal in Italy. Incredible specials gnocchi with muscles, Ravioli stuffed with seabass, great primi pasta dishes. House wine only 8Euro/L. Highly rated by all the Italian best of guidebooks. Opens at 830 for dinner and must have a reservation (have your hotel call) since there are only about 11 tables. more

I almost hate to post a positive review since I'd love for this undiscovered gem to stay that way. This a true Roman trattoria -- small and rustic, with simple but excellent food. I try and visit every time I am in Rome. more

The decor is rustic and not really romantic, but the traditional Italian food was quite good. more
