My friend got the gnocchi, which she said was one of the best pasta dishes she's had in her life. I had the cacio e pepe, which was very simple and delicious. The place was rather slow from the service standpoint, but other than that, we can see ourselves coming back again or recommending it to our friends!

As a Southern American trying to navigate Rome, I'm still completely confused. I cannot for the life of me figure out north vs. south or east vs. west in this city. Every street somehow looks historic, beautiful, and exactly the same. By 9 PM, after walking more than 10 miles today and standing in countless lines -- one for over an hour -- I was exhausted. I was close to my hotel and started looking for somewhere to eat. I had already passed Sofia earlier and really didn't want to backtrack even a few blocks. But after going the wrong direction again and somehow ending up right back near it, I figured that was a sign. So, Sofia it was. My ordering skills in Italy are still not exactly professional level. I really need a local Italian to help me. Yeah, I'm slow... remember, I'm from the South. I ordered the Mezza Maniche Carbonara. I mean, you can't really go wrong with noodles, cheese, and pork, right? A few minutes after ordering, they brought out this little appetizer-looking thing that I'm still confused about. It was this tiny little ball about the size of my thumb. I took one bite and it was absolutely delicious. Honestly, I'm not even sure I want to know what was in it, but at that point I was hungry enough not to ask questions. Then the pasta arrived. Drumroll... First bite? Absolutely divine. Rich, creamy, cheesy pasta with perfectly cooked pork mixed throughout. Fantastic. I devoured the entire plate, chased it down with a Coke, grabbed my glass bottle of water, and walked down the street carrying it like a Roman wino. Great food, great atmosphere, and a perfect little outdoor dining setup on one of Rome's tiny city streets

Located near the Vatican Museums, Kebabbaro is an authentic Mediterranean take-out restaurant that is owned by few friendly dudes, and it got some delicious kebab at cheap price. Originally, I just wanted a snack but the portion was bigger than I thought and I was full! A kebab roll with fries and a can of drink is less than €10 too. The option also includes a falafel wrap or platter if you are somehow not into kebab. Anyway, it's primarily a take-out but there are few booth seats and you get your food extremely quickly. If you are tired of pizza and pasta, give this place a try! *Disclaimer: Okay I actually wasn't tired of Italian food. I was waiting for the metro strike to end, but I'm glad there was a strike because I wouldn't find this delicious kebab place without it!

It's "osteria" style, but offering attentive service and bold menu options, like artichoke-crusted sea-bream, or zucchini-flower-crusted bass with potatoes and grilled calamari. That's a mouthful, and a delicious one. I did not get to try the pasta, I think that appetizer + main course is a great combo. Among the starters, notable zucchini flowers, anchovies and mozzarella au gratin, even more delicious than the eggplant parmigiana. Desserts are all home-made, if you have a sweet tooth, it pays to save some room for the exquisite "tortino ai frutti di bosco", or a classic Tiramisu. Even the bread is good! In summary, a not overly sophisticated seafood place with excellent ingredients, novel combinations and pleasantly reasonable prices.

We both believe the film "National Treasure" is a prophecy but all of the clues actually reside in the Vatican. Do you believe that too? After collecting sufficient evidence and finding the next clue for the location of the artifact, we were hungry! What better place to eat than 433? We arrived around 9 and the outside patio was packed. An amplified violin player wandered the tables. We didn't mind sitting inside, so we were seated immediately. Less immediate was actually getting service, which took around 15 minutes. Which is fine! Lest we be the Americans in a Rush. As we waited, our eyes scanned the restaurant for additional clues to the whereabouts of historic artifacts. Sally scanned the walls in a trance. Among the art, she appreciates "...the naked butt and Walter White and the queer table. From far away, it looks like the logo says 'a**'." Our waiter takes our order and returns with our drinks, lickety split. Sally remarks on her Prosecco, "tastes like 'a**'. I can't say I know what that tastes like, but I can 'a**'-ume. The bubbles are full of 'a**'." I ordered the Negroni. It was standard fare. The only unique element was that it came with a lot of ice. I enjoyed it! The food comes out equally quick. We begin with the Caesar salad. Sally munches and crunches and says, "Dare I say the best I've ever had..? A lady finger crouton tastes like a lady. The finger! In circle form..." The dressing on the salad is a delight, light and flavorful. Next up is the beef fillet. Sally chews and says, "Blood in my mouth... So good, so blood... Feels like I'm eating red 'a**'." I agree! Finally, we have the Tonnarelli Con Pomodorini, Basilico E Scaglie Di Parmigiano. Sally notes, "Very thick hot noodles... Tastes fresh like the pope on a Tuesday - red-hot like pizza supper! The noodles are thicc but it matches the theme of the restaurant. Feels like I'm eating 'a**'!" We round out our meal by enjoying a glass of the house red. "Tastes like swirly 'a**'. I thought it was blood from the steak... TURNS OUT, It was from a grape. And you know what kind of grape? The 'a**' grape..... Grape from an 'a**'..... Which is? A grape." We were stuffed to the gills with delicious food and drink. Our bloodhound-like noses were re-energized for clues and now we have a fresh scent for 'a**.' Who knows where that scent will lead us!

I wasn't ready for lunch at that point, but he needed food, so we went searching for a spot open and ready to serve (as Americans, we eat earlier than the locals, so that's always a consideration). Ristorante 433 was situated next to another restaurant, both looked to be doing good business and had intriguing menus. This place won out, though, because the staff was friendly and accommodating, without being too "salesman" and trying to usher us inside. We chose a table on the patio under an open umbrella. We had just settled in and were contemplating the menu when one of the waitresses came by and told us that the sun would be shifting soon, meaning we'd lose the umbrella's protection if we didn't move. She offered us another table under the canopy, which we accepted. To start, we ordered the Pinsetta con la Concia (a flatbread with marinated zucchini) for €14. For my main, and because I wasn't all that hungry, I ordered the Caprese salad (€10). My husband went with the Diavolo pizza (€13). The zucchini flatbread was surprisingly delicious. The bread was crunchy and chewy, and the flavor of the zucchini - not my husband's first choice of vegetable - was savory and herby. And I will say that the Caprese salad was exactly what I needed in that moment. Not just the fresh green vegetables, but something lighter than the carb-heavy pastas and breads I'd been living on the entirety of our trip. My husband really enjoyed his pizza, mostly because of the meat and mozzarella. I know he could have polished off one more of the pizzas and been a happy camper, but he left satiated. Glad we ended up at this restaurant for our mid-day meal. The staff, the patio, the food and the location were all very good.
