We were recommended the restaurant by the hotel and it was a gem. When there are locals eating there and it's jam packed you know its good. And it really was! Usually all the places we've been to were all small portions. We tried their famous chicken on bed or argula and my husband got the spaghettin w/ clams. When... More

The restaurant was recommended by our b&b staff and is a tourist ripoff. There are many hidden costs, 20% service fee, 3 euros bread, etc. the food was ok, the service was quite bad, all waiters seemed pissed, and the cashier tried to make us feel guilty when we did not want to pay the bread that we didn't eat....

We ate here our last night in Rome,as it was recomended by someone. The restaurant was packed, they really jam you in like sardines. We each had a starter, then I had a pasta dish and my husband a pizza, all bland and tasteless. They charge a 20% service cover charge, which I thought was a bit excessive. Wine was... More

Staying nearby and this place was certainly busy. Food ok and well presented. Service ok considering the time of night, and the number of groups in. BUT, made the fatal mistake of not working out the bill before going to the cash desk. Female cashier having a bad night, by the tone of the phone call she was having when... More

Once again we could not find the restaurant where we'd planned on eating lunch. Not sure if this is our failure or an incorrect address. Anyway, this restaurant looked ok since many local businessmen and several tourists were all eating here. It was quiet at first, but when some more groups of Italians came it became very loud. I only... More

Went here for dinner at the recommendation of someone on TA ... Glad we did. It was PACKED when we arrived but that group emptied about 5 mins after waiting. We were promptly seated after that. And once again, it got crowded very fast. The food was delicious - the typical Italian fair. Prices very reasonable. Staff were very efficient..... More

Ate at this wonderful restaurant on Saturday night we were lucky to get the last available table for two. The meal we had was the best while we were in Rome so much so that we went back the following evening. If you go may be a good idea to book as both nights were very busy. Service, food and... More

the vegetable buffet was great. The spaghetti carbonara was very light and tasty, not heavy or too salty. The pizza was amazing. The dessert, tiramisu in small cup was overpriced at over 5 euro, not worth it. go to bar down street for larger portion and half the price.
