My experience at this restaurant was definitely a positive one. The reservation process was seamless and I received an immediate confirmation via email once I submitted my request from Australia. Once entering the restaurant, staff were friendly, professional & very knowledgeable of all dishes on the menu. No problems with speaking English & the quality of the food was great... More

Without question my best meal in Rome so far, after several visits to the eternal city. My wife and I dined with our two boys aged 3 and 6, and we were all very well looked after. Fantastic food, three hours of joy!

Ad hoc fully lived up to our expectations. Found at trip advisor before leaving our home country, annpre ordered. The waitress recognized my name, and led us to the table immediately. My wife choosed the tasting menu Land. I took the truffles menu. Both were very good - with minor details to improve. They were very generous with wines -... More

This is the kind of place where you spend 2 or 3 hours on a special occasion for a gourmet dining experience. We spent the last night of our honeymoon here which was also my husband's birthday. I wanted something memorable and it certainly did the job. The restaurant is situated on the edge of a very elegant and beautiful... More

My husband and I dined here on the last night of our Honeymoon earlier this month. From the beginning, the customer service was outstanding. They first accommodated a very last minute request for a reservation. Then, upon arrival to the restaurant, gave us our choice of tables and immediately poured us a glass of complimentary champagne. And then the complimentary... More

She is gluten intolerant and all though most places offer a limited selection nothing quite met the bill. Our hotel concierge after some searching came up with Ad Hoc. We our dinner was just superb.

Our meal at Ad Hoc was a stand out highlight of our whole trip. When we arrived we were shown to our 'special seating' - a private booth which could be curtained off (we didn't but it was special!), and poured a complimentary glass of sparking white wine. We were instantly impressed and it was completely unexpected as we has... More

This dinner was a surprise that my husband planned for our anniversary. He could not have done better!!! This was a fourth trip that included Rome in our itinerary and the Ad Hoc is superior to any other restaurant experiences we have had in this timeless city. We both chose the truffle tasting menu and were offered the opportunity to... More

Went there for our anniversary and had an amazing experience! Decided to order the "Land taste with wine" $79 euro and it was excellent. It is a smaller serving of various items on the menu. Service was exceptional! waitresses were there but not overboard. Allow a good amount of time. We were there for just over 2 hours but time... More
