Maybe my experience was better since I went with local friends who regularly take tourists to eat there. The waiter already knew them so our service was really good. This is not a restaurant for tourists on a budget since it is in fact pricey. I found the supposedly (don't actually believe it) original fettucine alfredo to be very tasty... More

It's hidden round a curve in the wall of the street, which is why it's hard to spot on Google. But this is the original establishment from which the Fettuccine Alfredo legend has sprung. And it's worth the hunt, just up from Piazza Navona. The food is much the same as on offer at Il Vero Alfredo up the road,... More

My wife and I visited Alfredo's twice, 28 years apart, and each time the Fettucini Alfredo was excellent -- albeit a wee bit more expensive the 2nd time. We were very fortunate when our server permitted my wife to use the gold fork and spoon given to the restaurant by Douglas Fairbanks and Mary Picford.

Horrible service, unforgettable food make up for bad first night dining in Rome. They also charge for cover and service charge! Downright ridiculous!

This is where the fettucini Alfredo is supposed to be invented , but thanks i would prefer to take a photo rather than to eat in it. Pasta was ok nothing special, it tastes nice but not great , the mozarella chesse was ok as well but with no special twist, the dessert the creme brulle and chocolate moose were... More

Indeed the Fettuccine was very good, but at €20 for a couple of spoonfuls...? And other dishes were very poor, the Tempura being so greasy it was largely left uneaten. You’ve got to hand it to the waiting staff though - they are slick. Their ability to exploit the unwillingness of individuals within a group to make a fuss was... More

We booked this in the Uk before leaving for Rome. It is connected to the San Carlo's and Signor Sassi chain of retaurants. In fact, they say it is the place were the Fettucine Alfredo got it's name. The food was excellent. We both opted for the Fillet Steak in red and blue sauce. When it arrived there were two... More

Was part of a large party with a predetermined menu so that certainly limits the scope of this review. Staff were excellent in rapidly handling our large group (40+) whislt coping with other customers.
