    Carbonara in Rome, where it was born.  Very, very happy!
    Veronica T.

    If you're looking for nightlife, then the trastevere neighborhood is definitely the neighborhood for you. Friday night. This neighborhood was so jumpin, it made Vatican City look downright asleep. Ever been to North Beach for dinner during opening day of fleet week? That's what this scene reminded me of. No sailors, but the same vibe. And if you do find yourself in this neighborhood, you gotta come here. Grazia & Graziella is an institution. A little bit rustic, a lot of Italian. Service with a smile, despite being crazy busy. I just knew immediately that my dream of eating pasta in Italy at an authentic & neighborhood restaurant had to become a reality here. They sat us immediately, but it was late. 10-ish. Dinner in Rome at 10...romantic right? SO romantic! Sitting outside, in candlelight, in a charming restaurant...it's a win, win, win. It really doesn't matter if the food is less than mind-blowing. And it was. I thought I'd be especially "Roman" & order carbonara, since carbonara hails from Rome. It definitely hit the spot, & along with the fried calamari for an appetizer, I had no complaints. It's made w rigatoni pasta here, though, & I'm used to having it made w linguini pasta, but... WHEN IN ROME... Sorry. Had to. A must stop in this neighborhood. 3 & 1/2 stars.

    This place was not bad. There were tons of other places around, but this has good Yelp reviews and we didn't have WiFi to check for other places. They have standard tourist fare and it gave me a chance to try lasagna for the first time in Italy. I also had Moscato, which was delicious!! My husband and our aunt got a ravioli pasta dish which was fine and we got a fried artichoke (which may have been frozen as the season for them just passed). We were seated inside, which we thought we'd prefer over the bugs outside, but it ended up being super loud (mainly one waitress) even though we were the only customers inside. Interior had an interesting feel. There was a bar and random old items like a bike and funky pieces of art around. The place was fine. Nothing bad to say. Wouldn't mind coming back, but I wouldn't need to rush back. Staff was nice and we received limoncello at the end with these biscuits that I really enjoyed - like I ate 30 of them lol

    This was another great meal in Rome. It was a simple walk from our apartment in Trastevere and along the way you'll see many other restaurants but keep walking. It was a kinda rainy night but we sat outside anyway as it was warm. Welcoming service but either make reservations or get there before 7:00. It gets really, really busy starting then. There were 4 of us and they were very accommodating to our 8year old granddaughter. Nicola and Daniele were wonderful and guided us through our meal. House made pizza with sausage, some of the best raviolis I've ever had in a sage butter sauce, house made pasta with red sauce no meat for our vegetarian guest and focaccia! Good wine list as well. Reasonable prices for both food and wine. This might appear as a tourist place at first, but it isn't . Even though they were playing American music in the background. 75% of the folks dining were Italians. Authentic Italian-Roman cuisine with fine service. By far the best pizza and service here in Rome. Thanks again to Nicola and Daniele for taking care of our group and our princess!

    Artichoke and salad! Delicious
    Sam W.

    Delicious! The artichoke appetizer was amazing, and the pasta was super delicious. Great environment right next to the park. Big portions and the pasta was superb! Special thanks to dalila and chiara for making the visit special!

    I think it's safe to say this was my favorite dinner on this trip so far. It was a place I had bookmarked a while back and I'm so glad I did. Our hotel is in the Trastevere area which this restaurant is located - an area filled with great restaurants and bars. Walking up to the restaurant, the host was so friendly and offered us a glass of prosecco. I was anticipating a long wait for a table but we haven't experienced that anywhere. Probably because this trip was not during peak season for tourists in Rome. Anyway, we got a table inside but then it was a bit warm for us so we moved to table outside. We both ordered some Aperol Spritz and they were definitely what I needed after a long day of doing touristy things - like pretending to be a gladiator at the Colosseum and roaming around the Roman Forum. Not sure why there were 2 full-sized straws in the drink but I guess it helped it go down faster. We started our meal with caprese and the presentation was executed well as you can see in my photo. For our main courses, I went with the Carbonara and Brian went with the Amatriciana. Mine was delicious! Brian's was really good too but I definitely liked mine more. Of course, I had to order tiramisu. It was really yummy but not what I had expected. Instead of ladyfingers, some sort of crackers were used. It was still really good and we ate it all. Okay, we didn't eat it all - I did. Service was amazing. Brian didn't eat much of his plate and we had 3 people stop and ask if he was alright and if he didn't like his meal. He just didn't have much of an appetite after a few hours of knocking out emails and calls for work. They offered to get him something else and the host gave us some lollipops to cheer him up. They were so concerned so we just kept reassuring them that it wasn't them or the food and it was just Brian. At the end of the meal, they gave us shots of a digestif. I'm not a fan of black licorice so I gave my shot to my future hubby. Overall, it's a place I definitely recommend!

    Sliced Beef with White Wine, Rocket Salad and Parmesan & Roast Potatoes.

    If you want to try Tonarello, you oughta try this one because it is owned by the same owners - Will not disappoint! So glad we were able to try this place out for dinner on one of our nights in Rome. We were lucky that we stayed in the Romo Forno neighborhood which is a walking distance away to Trastevere where this restaurant is located. Our hotel staff recommend we try Tonarello which is another restaurant in Trastevere that is located literally in front of Grazie Graziela, but Tonarello always has such a long wait line. GG does too and because of that, we tried to eat at both restaurants for two nights, and were finally able to get a table at GG on a late Sunday night at 10:30 PM. I loved our food! My husband got the lasagna and I got the sliced beef dish with potatoes.. It was a nice change up after having had pasta for days. The lasagna was amazing but the highlight of our meal has got to be the dessert, which was tiramisu. It was soft, fluffy and flavorful. So good!

    First day getting into Rome and immediately looked for a place with good reviews on Yelp- this was the first one I saw with a good amount of reviews. Note, the street close to the resteraunt is a little too narrow for cars so usually your taxi driver will have you walk the short 1 to 2 minute walk to the resteraunt. There was a line, but we were willing to wait. As we waited one of the resteraunt staff came by offering people free mini glasses of Prosecco (we of course said yes!) and surprisingly the line moved pretty quickly. The severs were friendly and the food was fast. We planned on taking some of the pasta home but that did not happen- it was that good! I highly recommend this as a must go to restaurant. We will absolutely be coming here at least one more time before we head home!

    Let's me start off by saying that the staff here is wonderful. Whoever, owns this restaurant should applaud his staff for the excellent hospitality they give. The staff was warm, inviting, and genuinely happy to see us from start to finish. Grazia e Graziella is located right across from Tonnarello. Similar setup with indoor and outdoor seating. As always for the Trastevere area, I recommend arriving for lunch early around 12-1230pm. For food we went with the Bruschetas for the appetizer, Pasta Amatriciana, and Pasta Carbonara. Overall the food was good, however the pasta here was Rigatoni not spaghetti. I think that if the pasta was Spaghetti or handmade noodles, it would've been much better. The sauces was however well balanced and not overpowering.

    This was honestly the best restaurant i visited during my time in Rome. The locations couldn't be more perfect. It was located in Trastevere (a cute little hipster town in Rome) with sitting outside and inside. The staff was super sweet and as soon as we arrived they sat us right away-outside of course because that was our preference. For starter we asked for bread and let me tell you it was the best bread i ever had in my entire life (not even kidding), we had to order 2 orders of bread because it was just that delicious and warm. The pastas we ordered were to die for. I am not kidding when i say this was honestly the best food i had in my time in Rome. To top it off everything was super cheap. Rome can be super expensive compare to other cities in Italy. However, the prices here were so reasonable. If you are looking for a great place to eat i recommend this 100%. If i find myself back in Rome you best believe I'll come here again.

    We ordered French fries with pepper and cheese as appetizer, 2 glasses of red wine, margarita pizza, salami pizza, and salad. For a family of three, we ordered way too much food as the portions are pretty big. We were extremely hungry and we even took a taxi ride to eat here based on the Yelp review. However, we were not really impressed. It's location is pretty good but none of the food we ordered was great. They were just okay. Maybe we ordered wrong things on the menu, I'm not sure.

    Grazia & Graziella was an excellent option on a busy evening in the winter time. When every other restaurant in this lively neighborhood had a line out the door, so did G & G. They did however have their patio open which we were sat at right away. Between the blazing heaters, and the complimentary hot wine they served, the cold weather was a non issue. The food was very solid. We did a lasagna and the caprisiosa pizza both of which were nice sized portions and pretty affordable at under 10 Euro for each. If we hadn't eaten all the fried calamari as an appetizer, we probably would have finished everything, but they were really nice about wrapping it up for us anyways. There's a lot of great options in the Trestevere neighborhood, but I definitely wouldn't be disappointed if I ended up here again at some point in the future.

    Pizza Diavola
    David L.

    Looked online for reviews about a place to eat in Trastevere. The area was recommended by our hotel staff on the other side of the Tiber. Great Atmosphere on a quiet corner, this restaurant is loud both inside and out. The food was good and had plenty of options to choose from. Portion sizes were good. The wine selection was on the small side, but had a good choice of regional wines to choose from. The Focaccia was awesome, Diavola Pizza great and the Tiramisu fantastic. The only downside was the constant shifting of the wait-staff. Very little continuity.

    rack of lamb
    Luzcel T.

    We just got in from the US and we're tired and hungry. We came here as a recommendation. We met with friends who have been touring Italy. The place has an outside dining, as it should be, as the inside was also packed. There is a lower level for dining which is perfect for big groups as it gives you a little bit of privacy. The ambience can be romantic, if not packed. We ordered salmon salad, amatriciana and grilled lamb (for my dad who's not into pizza and pasta) for sharing. They didn't mind that they had to serve the food family style. They even offered us extra plates. The food was generous and tasty. My dad even enjoyed the pasta. The staff were attentive and courteous. Special mention are Myrko and Marylou who gave us service with a smile! Definitely a favorite when in Rome!

We made a reservation online, arrived about 20 minutes early, and they gladly sat us right down. While we were there we noticed plenty of locals eating, chatting with the servers in Italian, and having a blast, which is always a green flag. The menu leans traditional Roman; extensive, with plenty of pasta, meats, and fish. The supplì classico and the cacio e pepe one were both phenomenal. We also had the all'amatriciana and carbonara, and both were divine. After a week traveling through Europe, my husband said this was his favorite meal and restaurant of the trip. It was a top one for me too. We also ordered the oxtail; delicious, but I'm not sure I'd get it again since you get two pieces that are mostly bone. I know that's just how oxtail is, but I was expecting a little more. The panna cotta for dessert was a great choice too. Service was fine, nothing to write home about, but honestly I appreciated how rough around the edges it was. They kept it real; don't come expecting fancy restaurant service. This is a place you go to for authentic food and flavors. We sat outside on the sidewalk, great for people watching, though they had plenty of space inside and even multiple floors. Oh, and the house wine was delicious and a great deal. Our entire meal only came to €70, the cheapest dinner we had in Italy. Definitely try it if you're in Rome.

    Review # 1200 After…read moresome shopping on the Via cola Di Riemzo, we were ready for lunch. This spot was a Yelp find. We arrived just before they opened at 12:30. We asked for a table outside and the kind lady asked us if we had a reservation (oh oh). We didn't. No problem as we took our pick of one of the tables. Two levels inside with a small Bar in the back. Before we knew it, outside seating was full and inside also filled up-a good sign. We ordered a liter (ended up being too much but when in Rome...) of their house Red and enjoyed it. For starters, we ordered the Fried Artichokes (thick breading and will order the Roman style with garlic/vinegar next time), fried Zucchini and Suppli-Cacio Pepe. The Suppli was delicious and was enjoyed the most. For main, it was Pasta Carbonara (Guanciale )-Proper carbonara and the streak of not having a bad version of this dish in Rome continues. The sliced Beef with mushrooms was also delicious -super tender and thin pieces of beef (medium rare as requested). We asked if the Tiramisu was house-made. Our server answered, "yes, and I am the one who makes it." How could we not order after that?! One of the best Tiramisus we've had. Perfect balance of coffee dipped lady fingers with cream-delicious! Our Server was kind, attentive and full of hustle -she was covering a lot of ground. Don't miss this Gem if you are in the Prati district.

We started with the artichoke, which was quite possibly the best artichoke I've ever tasted in my life. Ubelievably tender and served bathed in rich olive oil that elevated every single bite.
