Goose was amazing. Very affordable resto. beside the Vatican. We ordered calamari fritti and caprese for starters and both were the best we've ever had. Had 2 bottles of rosso house wine and that was great for €10/ bottle. For our primi and secondi we ordered linguine with lobster and filet with capers and pepper sauce which we shared because the portions were large. Both were devine. We made a reservation for the next night so we could explore more of their menu. More reviews to come. read more

For a location a not too far to the Vatican by Uber, it was not so crowded, but you could see many locals patronize this restaurant. There was outdoor as well as indoor dining. We liked this place so much we ate here on 2 separate occasions. Pasta was al dente and pizza was just as great. We had calamari as our appetizer and it was fresh and crispy. A definite must try if you want to go somewhere the locals go. Nice ambience inside. read more

Ambiance was perfect. We just checked in to our hotel and walked to the restaurant so location was great. We ordered pizza's and they were large enough to share. We had mushroom pizza and salami (aka pepperoni) and they were both delicious. Service was fine. No issues. Recommend this location for a nice feel and good food. read more

I have been to Goose twice and I enjoyed their food. I have tried both their pizza and pasta. The second time I went, I was with my parents and both my mom and I thought our food was a bit too salty. My dad is gluten free and they were able to accommodate him. They were very helpful in providing him options so he would enjoy his meal. The restaurant is quite nice and it is enjoyable to eat inside or outside. read more

CRIMES COMMITTED HERE! PURSE THEFT If we could give a zero star i would! Our party was the first group as they were just opening. Nobody else was there. We sat outside and noticed "commotion" behind us that was the staff and before we even ordered my friends purse was gone, it had her passport, credit cards, iPhone etc BEWARE read more

Excellent service. We got seated right away and after we ordered our food - grilled veggies, zucchini flower, pizza parmigiana and seafood fetuccine, it was served to us less than 30 mins. The food was really tasty and delicious including the lemon ice cream and tiramisu. The lemoncelli spritz was also very good. Marika our server was very helpful in giving us suggestions of what to order including my lemoncelli spitz. She was prompt in providing service to us. The place is nice and cozy. Definitely, will recommend this place to my friends and will surely come back. Great dinner experience. read more

We walked in here one evening for dinner and they immediately gave us a table. The place was pretty busy for a Wednesday night. Unfortunately, the seating in this place is crammed together pretty tight. Our server wasn't that friendly, she seemed too busy taking care of other tables and didn't spend any time to greet us properly or even talk to us at all. Prices are on the high side here. I ordered the chicken cutlet with spaghetti instead of salad, plus fries. When the dish arrived, it had two thin pieces of chicken and a few pieces of lettuce. I told her I wanted spaghtti instead, and she didn't say anything and brought me the spaghetti (and charged me extra for her mistake). The food didn't have much flavour, pretty tasteless. The fries were the best part of the meal, being cooked perfectly. The only time I saw a smile on the server's face was when she presented the check--how pathetic. read more

Try their veal ! Super tender , best veal cuts in Rome . I usually don't like gnocchi but theirs was so soft and flavorful

Good pizza, decent house wine, the bread came plain with nothing to spread on it or to moisten it.

Came here as it was a short walk from our rental near the south part of the Vatican. Cute and cozy authentic Italian restaurant, and the pizza and desserts were delicious. I ordered the pizza alla diavola (tomato, mozzarella, spicy salami), it was perfect! Had a little bite to it with the spicy salami, and it was the perfect end (along with the dessert) to our last night in Rome. For dessert I ordered the Tartufo affogato Al caffè, and I ordered it "black" which I believe was chocolate on the outside of the gelato with a vanilla inside, which was delightful. Great service and friendly staff! Would highly recommend! read more

We tried goose because it was one of the closest restaurants next to our place with a good rating on yelp; we looked at the pictures on yelp of course to see what looked good. Of course we get there and choose what we like instead; we chose The carbonara and the goose pizza. We love love pizza and we were torn with the goose pizza or the good ol napoli pizza; the anchovies, the cheese, and the tomatoes. We asked our waiter and he recommended the goose pizza, so on his rec we went with the goose The goose pizza: 3/5 the cheese was really good, I would say one of the best tasting cheese's I had on a pizza; gooey, fresh tasting, and wasn't rubbery at all. The crust was perfectly thin and crunch was just amazing, the taste was also very good. Now the pizza as a whole with the toppings were very lackluster, the flavor was not there because it had eggplant (which was not flavorful at all), mushrooms, and tomatoes. I would def not get it again, prob stick with the Napoli for sure. Carbonara 4/5; first off the pasta was al dente, other reviewers had noted that the pasta wasn't and I felt like it was on par with many of the other Italian restaurants here that we've had. The flavor was a deep rich eggy and flavorful pasta; it was such a thick consistency which we like so it was just right. Now the only downside was the taste, it was pretty good with the cheese and the bacon bits, but we were overwhelmed with the saltiness of the dish. It was more saltier than most carbonara dishes we had, I would still give this a 4/5 because the flavor had a good true Italian taste to it but the salt was a little over powering. NOW these two dishes together was just good; the goose pizza which was bland and really had no sense of saltiness mixed with the carbonara which was a little on the saltier side made a great dish. Side note: we ordered the goose house wine, would give it a solid 3.5/5, would remind me of a Trader Joe's 2 buck chuck if you know what I'm talking about, if you don't then I would recommend it with your meal since it was such a good price. read more

Ristorante Goose is essentially a neighborhood pub. They offer plenty of really decent things on their menu; and the accessibility of the restaurant is second to none. The menu includes a wide assortment of comfort foods, and beer wine and drinks. The restaurant is the perfect neighborhood pub. If you're in close proximity to the Vatican, and need a quick bite or or you are staying in a hotel by the Vatican I need a place for meeting they're your place. The take home - there are far more gourmet and upper end places in Rome; and, Goose is a nice "go to" for a comfortable any-night-of-the-week meal. read more

We found this little gem around the corner from where we were staying in Rome. What can I say, if the locals frequent the place it must be worth it. Upon walking in we were greeted with warmth and hospitality. We knew very little Italian but that didn't deter us from ordering our plates. The staff is very friendly and provided prompt service. The food was delicious!! The pizza was nothing like anything I had tasted before. West Coast and New York Style pizza is nothing compared to Goose pizza. The Frutti de Mare was bananas!!! I had this dish twice during my trip to Rome. For dessert we enjoyed tiramisu and it was heavenly. Would definitely visit Goose again when in Rome. read more

Excellent. Great food and friendly staff. Will definitely go back. Love the house wine!

We ordered the rice balls, bread with olive oil, fettuccini Bolognes and seafood fettuccini. It was ok. I didn't like the seafood, it was VERY fishy smelling / flavored. To be fair, I'm not a huge fan of mussels but thought I'd try something more traditional. The bread was just like Italian bread toasted and brushed with olive oil. The rice balls really needed salt. The woman next to me got pizza though and it looked amazing. read more

Who needs the other side of the Tiber? Followed the instructions of others and went to Goose. Bought a 10€ bottle of house red then ordered frito misto, bruschetta seafood pasta eggplant cooked with cheese and a pizza. The waiter Alex said don't order the Pizza it's too big. Glad we didn't I saw one in another table. Everything thing was fantastic. Hey why buy two glasses of wine when you can get the whole bottle? read more

An absolute delight. Arguable the best restaurant in the area. We ordered a bit of everything. Nothing disappointed us. We were staying nearby for two nights and could not resist eating here on both nights. The Funghi fusili pasta & the Pizza with italian sausage, all were so good. But what was beyond imagination is the Grilled Sausage. An absolute delight(Check one of the pictures I posted). They have a great bar with nice cocktails. The double malt beer is good too. Andrea is great. Very friendly, she helped us booking a taxi for an early morning flight as well. read more

Came here twice due to the location( it was very close to hotel) and the pizza was good, depending on which one you got. During our 2 visits we ordered 3 different types, let's just say simple is better. Seafood risotto was not tasty and the fried pumpkin flower was too doughy. Really enjoyed watching the pizza being prepared and cooked by the chef in the pizza oven. read more

It was our first night in Rome and was brought here by a friend who is a local. Great restaurant ambience and the house white white was excellent! We had seafood pasta dishes, margherita pizza, and deserts. Food was very delicious and came in pretty big portions. Prices off the menu are very reasonable. This family owned restaurant offers authentic italian dishes frequented by locals. This is now a one of our favorite restaurants in Rome. read more

Great small place with both indoor and outdoor seating. Very friendly wait staff and excellent food. Understand that in Rome, the pace is slower and your table is not the center of the universe. Be patient and your food will be the reward. I ate there three times and was never disappointed. read more

My overall rating is 3.5 for this restaurant. The service was good (one of the best we've had during our trip). My husband and I both had pastas ( his had sausage and mushroom and the spiral pastas) and I had a pasta with bacon bite and cheese. On the door of the restaurant, the pasta I took looked amazing but when I received it, it was a bit undercooked , dry and flavorless. I mostly enjoyed my husband pasta and only ate mines since I was hungry. We ordered the fried potatoes as our appetizers and we did not like it ( it seemed reheated). read more

Awesome dinning experience. Very comfortable and cosy. Great atmosphere. Food was excellent and the prices were very reasonable. I had a squid and shrimp dish (€10) and the wife had a lobster and pasta dish (€20). The flavors were incredible. For desert the cream brûlée was unbelievable. Not like what you usually get in the States. The cream was yellow and truly tasted fresh and delicious. Waitress helped us with the menu explaining the dishes and she spoke great English. Only regret is not going sooner in our vacation so we could have gone back again and again. Excellent place to eat. read more

Meh, after trying some incredible roman establishments, this is more catered to milling tourists around the Vatican. Pasta wasn't al dente (more Americana than Roma), and carbonara was weak and saucy. Everything else was forgettable. You'd do better to walk (or take a cab) somewhere else. read more

This place does not disappoint. We've been enjoying food at Goose as a family on every trip to Rome that we've had as a family for nearly 10 years. It doesn't matter what you order, every menu item we've tried had been awesome. Our favorites; 4 cheese gnocchi, green peppercorn steak, garlic bruschetta, any of their pastas in arrabiatta sauce. Come hungry and leave satisfied. Excellent value for money. read more
