    You walk up, and the first thing you see is someone's Nonna making fresh pasta in the window, and…read morethat is probably all you need to know as far as whether you should eat here! This place was a treat. Yes, it's hot in the summer. Yes, it's crowded and popular. But also yes, the food makes it all worth it. I had the oxtail pasta at the recommendation of the waiter (and a couple Peronis to drink, ofc). This is slow cooked oxtail that just serves to bring even more flavor to the hearty tomato sauce, ladled over the aforementioned thick homemade pasta... and plenty of it. Served of course with fresh bread and regional olive oil and vinegar, what better? We actually had plenty of attentive service here, and it was honestly the only time a tip was ever mention in our whole time in Italy. This young man earned it. As I mentioned before, it's hot inside. There is air conditioning according to my eyes, but you couldn't feel it making any kind of difference between all the people, the kitchen, and the absolutely stifling temperatures of a Roman summer.

    Very small and quaint with outdoor seating. This was our last meal in Rome and would be up there…read morewith one of the best meals we had. We ordered the oxtail pasta dish and the bolognese. Please please please do yourself a favor and order the oxtail pasta (not sure of the name on the menu) but it was delicious. It was also served with an abundance of oxtail. They did not skimp on the portion size. All of their pasta is fresh made and rolled in the restaurant. We also fell in love with the orange soda that was served. We have been on the hunt for it since our return.
