We didn't book the table in advance therefore, we had to wait almost one hour. However, when we got a table and entered into the restaurant, the inside atmosphere is excellent with the friendly staff. The foods are perfect and are worth waiting expecially the oysters. We had a good time and already recommend our Thai friends to visit this... More

The service and food in this restaurant was superb. We were welcomed with a complimentary proseco and hors d'ouevre. With a shared pasta and fish and langoustine entrees, we thoroughly enjoyed the meal. Complimentary limoncello finished this fine lunch. Best of all was the very friendly and attentive service.

We booked our table via their website before we left home as this was going to be the last night of our honeymoon. We mentioned this when we made the booking. When we arrived, we were welcomed in and given 2 glasses of complimentary prosecco, which was really lovely. We had toyed with the idea of the tourist menu, and... More

We ate here after reading tripadvisor reviews and happily discovered Tema was close to our hotel, UNA hotel. We ordered from the tourist menu. What a mistake! For starter we all should have received roasted veg antipasto, the only option on the menu, we all got brushetta, the staff realised their mistake from what I could decifer from their conversation...

We stayed at Hotel Raffaello during our visit to Rome and the concierge recommended Tema to us. It was about a 5 min walk. The food was great - fresh pasta and very tasty! The owners sent over 2 glasses of complimentary champagne. Their hospitality was amazing. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and would highly recommend it everyone visiting this... More

Very good food - we had sea bass and lamb chops for our main course. Young waitress was polite and knowledgeable about both menu and wines. Restaurant has quite a modern atmosphere, ideal for an occasion. Very extensive wine list.

We went here because of the good Trip Advisor reviews and were very disappointed. My daughter's pasta carbonara was inedibly salty, my porcini risotto had no seasoning and was more like gruel, and my husband's shrimp were battered and deep-fried without being peeled (how to eat that!?) We didn't complain to the waiter but he acted as if we had... More

We had "Spigola al forno con patate" bass cocked in owen with potatos and tiny tomatos. The fish was perfectly cooked and the combination with the potatoes and the tomateos was great. The place is though a bit pricy 55€ for two portions of fish (you pay the fish per 100g) and we had mixed grilled vegetables as a starter... More

We were walking around the area and Tema looked pleasant. We were lucky we went inside for dinner. The food was really good (especially after having eaten at several restaurants that were okay). Great selection of fish which seemed very fresh. Good wine selection, also.

Read the reviews on this restaurant and so right. Excellent food and the staff are so friendly. Food fresh, great flavours and wonderful wine. Only downside was they didn't give you the tourist menu unless you asked for it (they are displayed outside). The tourist menu's are great value. Would definitely go again and would recommend a visit when visiting... More
