To be honest the dinner was a bit disappointed, I expected a bit more special the dishes of pasta . There were a lot of waitresses but they do not pay atention to you , you needed call them if you needed anything sometime twice....The space between the tables was very small and you do not have privacy.More

This was the best carbonara I had so far, we also had cacio e Pepe that was very very good. Appetizer of deep fried zucchini flowers with anchovies was amazing, house wine was very nice as well. Prices very reasonable and full of locals

Food is fine for those looking for Roman no-frills cooking: Basic, honest, and pretty much what you want from an unpretentious corner restaurant in Trastevere, Rome. The pasta is good, as is the straightforward peppered beef. What is not good, or flat out bad, is...the sour attitude from its owner?/manager who sits on a 'throne' at the cash register in the middle of the restaurant. Overseeing it all, visibly unpleased, and unfriendly left and right. We felt very uncomfortable and will thus not return.More

Our experience at Zi Umberto was simply refreshing, a taste of the most incredible local roman cuisine at a very accessible price. IS this still a possibility today? Yes test it and then you will agree with me.Buon appetito!

Delicious food with quick service! I devoured the fried zucchini. Pasta Amatriciana and Carbonara were heavenly. We heard mostly Italian at the other tables.

Lovely food and wine! We had fried squid and zucchini flowers, caccio e pepe, orecchiette with saussage and broccoli, and tiramisu. Excellent value for money. Service was good and efficient. Would recommend booking!

Fantastic authentic Italian pasta served in a bustling Italian Bistro. The Carbonara paired with Vermentino was especially amazing

We had only one night in Rome, coming back from the Amalfi Coast, and told our Concierge we wanted to eat authentic Roman food. She made reservations here. What a delightful evening, filled with fantastic starters (we were lucky to be there in artichoke season),...delicious Roman pastas, and desserts. We sat outside and watched Roman life, with the families, couples in love and friends, come to life in an amazing street scene. Unmissable and would go again and again if I lived there. Such a perfect evening. Please note if you are American: this is an Osteria, meaning they specialize in wine (no cocktails). They are high volume and built for people who get eating in Roman restaurants--speed and knowledge are at a premium in ordering so be alert, don't expect fawning service, and don't complicate things with a lot of special requests. What you will get is a true experience in Rome that I worried might be gone. Pay attention and enjoy.More

We really enjoyed our lunch. That said, it is a different experience for non Romans. It feels very frenetic & chaotic but we had a lovely meal. There were plenty of locals enjoying a sociable & leisurely Sunday lunch. The senior staff are having a...lovely time as well & were helpful when you could get their attention. The junior staff are much less effective but I’m sure they will learn. The pasta was excellent & was washed down with a nice house white.More

Unfortunately great good We are coming here for more than 10 years every time we go to Rome. On a good evening Service ist OK. But quite often Service for non Italien guest is significantly worse. Telling so, you are told that this ist not...true, before waiter turns in the middle of a setence to talk with a Roman friend. Food really ist great and priceworthy, but honestly i do not want to be treated as Second class guest.More

We had our last lunch in Rome here and it was sublime. Without a doubt the best we tasted in our few days there. The waiters were friendly and helpful and the bill wasn’t bad at all.We’ll be back for sure!

We saw this place recommended on a YouTube.. we booked in for 8pm on a Sunday and sat indoors as the weather was temperamental! We ordered spaghetti and clams from the specials menu & spaghetti carbonara for primi and then we ordered lemon veal and...oxtail for secondi.. it was alot of food! But we were trying to be all Italian but we could see around us other Italian having a pasta dish and then sharing a secondi so it did make me wonder how can they eat all this! The food was fantastic very tasty! Would recommend oxtail the sauce it was in was delicious! The staff were very attentive - I was surprised at some of the reviews and maybe they’d gone at a wrong time but we did not experience this at all. Would highly recommend.More
