    Fun staff and food. This was our favorite meal in Rome. Cozy little room you walk down into. Check out their wine bar next door and keep the party going.

    Meat and cheese.

    Very much enjoyed Fabio's hospitality. Really small restaurant, worth the wait, or better yet, make a rezie (on The Fork). Everything is delish. The place is loaded with heartwarming charm.

    Fraschetteria was a literal dream in the midst of touristy Rome. We could not tell which restaurants were good or not UNTIL we walked in and saw how small the restaurant was. You definitely need to make a reservation; we saw many parties get turned away while we were dining. Every item that we had was wonderful. I don't think you can go wrong with anything on this menu. We started with a really great Bruschette that was full of salami and drizzled with truffle honey. The Carbonara & Lasagne were great. The Porchetta was possibly the best meat I've eaten in all of Italy, you HAVE to get it if you come. Service was really great as well! Just be aware that you have to go down a pretty narrow staircase and that the tables are all close together.

    If you're reading this review, it's not by chance. You're probably searching for the best restaurants in Rome -- and if you hadn't stumbled upon this review, you might never have found this place. Fraschetteria Roma isn't easy to spot, and it's not on a street you'd typically find yourself walking down. But trust me -- you're lucky you did. This tiny restaurant, with barely eight tables, served some of the best Italian food I've ever had. Every dish felt authentic and perfectly balanced, like it came straight from someone's home kitchen ...it might have. The flavors were rich but never heavy, the ingredients fresh, and the service warm and genuine. It's the kind of experience that reminds you why you travel -- to find places like this. No fancy décor, no gimmicks, just real Italian cooking from good people. Truly unexpected, and absolutely unforgettable.

    If there is one restaurant you need to go to during your visit to Rome, come here. Without a doubt, this was the best food I have ever had in my life. This restaurant is very small, so you should definitely make a reservation ahead of time. There are very few tables so it will be tight, but it is so beyond worth it. The service is excellent and the staff is very friendly. You could tell that the staff was passionate about the food. The food came out piping hot and all of the pasta was fresh and homemade. The pasta was so good, that we ordered a second round. The lasagna literally moved me to tears it was that unreal. Please take my advice and do not skip this restaurant!

    THIS RESTAURANT IS A MUST. Stumbled across this thanks to Yelp. I was in my last day of a work trip and had been eager to make my last evening count. I knew I was in the midst of touristy chaff and was desperate not to fumble dinner. What a total sleeper gem. Unassuming, tucked off a Via Vittorio Veneto, just around the corner of a small street, blink and you'd miss it, is this six table slice of Roma in a walk down. Price is unbeatable. Service is on point. An absolute masterclass in simplicity and restraint. I had the bruschetta pomodoro, Tagliatelle with mushrooms and truffles, house made tiramisu with espresso, and two glasses of white (which I ultimately bought a bottle to go home). I only wished I wasn't dining solo so I could have tried more. But, I will say that dining solo was my saving grace to get a table quickly. This was one of my top five meals to date.

    The food was amazing, we got here as soon as they opened. The service was fast and great we were in less than 40 mins

    Amazing experience. Felt very local and intimate. Everything was amazing especially pasta and prosciutto. Lemon cello spritz was a great starter. Recommend a reservation since there are very few tables.

    Tiny gem of a restaurant tucked in a side street in the XX September neighborhood. Steep stairs going down from the street so accessibility is limited for those needing it. Extensive menu with delicious choices for appetizers, pasta, first, second courses, drinks, salad and dessert. Staff is small but service is polite and speedy. When I was there it quickly filled up with one person willing to dine on the stair landing so that says something. Seats about 25-30. Short walk to Trevi Fountain, 15 minutes or so.

    I live for pleasant surprises like this one. Almost a literal hole in the wall, they only have 6 tables. I wanted a break from pizza and pasta and went with the nearest place with porchetta. It did not disappoint!

    It's a quaint little restaurant with great food! Very unpretentious and the service was fast. I had the Caccio et Pepe with truffle and it's heaven! We had the pistachio cake as dessert and it's just oozing with deliciousness. Highly recommend restaurant! It's right by the Capuchin Crypt too!

    A yummy thing happened on the way to the Colosseum …read more.. Pane & Vino is a tiny sandwich shop near il Colosseo that specializes in local porchetta (stuffed pork loin) and is run by the friendliest owner of all time. He gets to know every customer on a first name basis. I'd go back more to see him than to have a sandwich. Seriously, he's pretty awesome. The menu is simple and focused on sandwiches featuring their famous porchetta so we tried two recommendations from the peppy proprietor. While waiting, I got a miniature bottle of Chardonnay and my spouse sipped a Coke Zero. The Traiano Porchetta sandwich (12€ - 4 stars) is an original creation of the out-going owner with a mighty Mustard-flavored blend of Roast Pork, Sun-dried Tomatoes, and Grilled Eggplant. I like mustard and, therefore, liked this specialty much more than my wife, but we ended up ignoring portions of the so-so bun. Pane & Vino Special Porchetta (12€ - 4 stars) was a huge sandwich with the sliced Roast Pork Porchetta plus Mozzarella Cheese, Grilled Eggplant, Grilled Peppers, Mushrooms, Lettuce, and Mayo on classic Italian Pane. It needed more mayonnaise or a sprinkle of balsamic and olive oil for my tastes, but there was no denying it was a hearty hero. There are lots of pane bread and sandwich shops in Rome, but there is only one -- Pane & Vino -- run by the most welcoming of owners ever. If I'm in the neighborhood again, I'll be sure to stop in for a casual chat and some yummy porchetta sandwiches on the way to the Colosseum.

Both sandwiches were delicious and the perfect bite after the coliseum! The owner was super friendly and helpful and even recommended a place for us to visit "the Roman Keyhole" - a great find and a well deserved five stars. Thanks again yelp!

    I stumbled on this delicious vegan restaurant while wandering the streets of Rome. I would've never…read moreguessed that the dish was vegan had I not read the menu more closely. The cheese was creamy and delicious, and the vegan bacon was crunchy with the perfect texture - just like real bacon. The owner stated that it was made from pea protein, which I also would never have guessed. PRO TIP: The they close the kitchen between lunch and dinner (at 3:30) so be sure to get there earlier for full access to the menu. Even though I arrived late, the waiter asked the kitchen to make me carbonara, and I'm so glad they did! I will definitely be coming back here again to try their other vegan dishes. The bruschetta was also phenomenal. The tomatoes are so much sweeter and the olive oil so smooth, much better than in the U.S. And of course, I can't forget the noodles - perfectly al dente and fresh. I feel so spoiled when I eat pasta in Italy!

    Rifugio Romano served the best vegan pizza I've ever eaten! Tbh, I haven't sampled too many other…read morevegan pies prior, however this one certainly beat them out, though they could also work on their technique and flavors a little more. Searching for a place to eat, this place caught my eye for its good reviews on Gmaps and optimistic take on Roman classics turned plant-based. On a Friday around 1pm, right after we sat down, the restaurant sudden filled up with additional customers to about three-quarters full. Approximately two dozen seats inside and another dozen street side tables outside. Inside it's got a mom and pop traditional restaurant feel--a handful of two and four tops, a drinks fridge/wine chiller, a small corner bar, with medium-toned wooden tables and chairs. We checked in with the staff inside and they gave us the option to sit in or outside, we chose outdoors. Menus are scanned via QR code and if I recall correctly they have mostly Italian with some English. We ordered: - seasonal artichoke and vegan bacon pizza €16: first of all, the scale isn't obvious from my photo--it was a 12 inch pizza, for an individual pie--HUGE! Glad I saw the table over receiving their pizza first so I didn't make the big mistake of ordering more than one. Flavor--the artichoke, cheese and crust were a great combo, and the plant-based cheese stood out as one of the most strikingly similar cheesy textures out there. The bacon was visually and texturally dissimilar to the real thing, it looked dry though wasn't, and it wasn't bad, but it wasn't bacon. At least they hit one out of two on this pizza. It was a satisfying pie. - ratatouille €6: which ended up being sautéed beans, peas and asparagus. If there is one thing I noticed eating at a few different Italian restaurants in Italy--they overcook their vegetables, and this was on trend, a tad over, though still edible. The flavor was good but needed to tone down the salt a notch. Food arrived in about 15 minutes, the pizza was hot and crisp at the crust. Staff was friendly and checked in once during the meal. Cash and card accepted. Bathroom available though I didn't use it to comment.
