It was a Sunday and we did not have reservations, but ate on the earlier end around 8pm (we were one of the first tables). We had the cheese board to share (very hefty- the Gorgonzola was the only one that really stood out to us). Then had pasta that came in these huge bowls I couldn't even finish mine! My carbonara was very tasty and my husband was happy with the pasta special.

This is far from being good Sicilian food. Just a topical touristy place in the centre with high prices and average quality. Literally nothing we tried was good. Very poor execution of the dishes and the waiter smelled like cigarettes so badly. Anyway, not a place I would try again. High prices, average quality.

Great Sicilian seafood place with very friendly owner. Amazing seafood appetizer sampler with raw anchovies, raw shrimp, breaded mussels, risotto squid ink balls, tuna balls, best calamari/shrimp ever. The two pasta dishes - one with anchovies and bread crumbs and one with swordfish and olives were outstanding - not using their proper names - sorry. Wish this wasn't our first meal in Rome (on this trip) as i think it may be hard to beat. Thinking about going back. Damn it was good.

The restaurant offers an amuse-bouche of an anchovy in sea salt. It was perfect. Had their version of fiore di zucca but at a higher level. They used ricotta instead of mozzarella.

We arrived at 8 pm and the restaurant quickly filled - mostly locals, thats always a good sign. Ordered the 7 course tasting menu, that actually ended up being 9 courses. 5 of 9 courses were fish, and all was good - allthough 2-3 of the dishes lacked acidity. There was also a beef tartar on the menu, that was pretty good. But what blew my mind was the very first and the last dish. First of a ceviche that made the angels sing and last was a perfect mini-tiramisu. And its weird that this made me happy, normally I dont even like tiramisu. The staff and owner were friendly and we immidiately felt welcome. They made a few mistakes during the evening, even forgot to ask for drinking orders from half the table. But when friendly we forgive things like this. And plus points for letting the kids share a menu. Price was more than fair, especially considering the quality and creativity. I definetly reccomend this place!

Ristorante Albaruya came highly recommended for its seafood by our apartment landlord in…read moreTrastevere.  It is located about halfway between the apartment and Trastevere stazione ("train station").  The owner comes from Sardinia.   We went for pranzo and enjoyed some of the best seafood that we have had anywhere in Italy ... certainly the best in Rome. For antipasti, we had mussels sautéed with garlic in white wine, marinated anchovies, sautéed clams, baby octopus in tomato sauce, and a mixed salad of chilled squid, octopus and crabmeat.  We then shared an order of pasta with shrimp, mussels and clams ... fantastic!  A very nice white wine accompanied the meal, a 2015 Capichera.  We somehow found room for dessert--a delightful traditional Sardinian rigotta "pie" with an orange sauce--and finished with limoncello, liquore di mirto (traditional blueberry liqueur from Sardinia), and espresso.   If you are looking for a great seafood meal (pranzo o cena) in Rome, then Albaruya is the place and well worth taking a train or #8 tram to Roma Trastevere stazione. Casual environment with friendly staff.

While I understand this is the european way, we ordered so much food and it took almost 20 min between dishes and probably over an hour for the first dish to hit the table. I feel like we were here for 3-4hrs and unfortunately having already started to feel a bit under the weather, I stayed out for too long and got very sick for the next few days. Regardless, the food was so delicious I wish I could go back. Thankful the group members were foodies and knew what to order deep fried beef tripe beef flank steak (special) - so tender wagon wheels with campidanese sauce - fan favorite, delicious pumpkin tatin, parmigiana fondue (special) - so yummy, could be wrong, but used a pumpkin that tasted identical to the japanese kabocha pumpkin - extremely sweet and dry/starchy bottle of wine bianchetto - paired so well with the food profiles sheep ricotta cheese, marinated eggplants (3) - so flavorful rigatone al amatriciana - pasta in italy... can't go wrong arancini (3) - a first for me and did not disappoint ordered 3 desserts with the group: chocolate mousse, pear cinnamon cake with ricotta cheese, gelato affogato - all so delicious, perfect sweetness, just the right portions
