It's darkly lit, and not too loud, but not quiet enough that you hear everyone else. There's no dancing upstairs, but there is light music playing. Like I said, it's a great place to relax and have a conversation.

We made reservations in advance for the Cocktail Experience and were given a seat at the counter top overlooking the Colosseum - best seats in the restaurant. It was cold during our visit, but they had blankets to keep you warm. It's definitely pricier at 60 euros/person, but I found it to be worth it. Really enjoyed the drinks, and the view cannot be beat. Highly recommend.

We wanted to sit outside so we were asked to go down to the Garden area. Felt like we were walking in a retro decor maze. Dimly lit with various sections/rooms and a Bar in the basement with a lounge area next to the Garden area. We started with a couple of their house specialty cocktails-Palimini (refreshing, fruity) and Salt Garden (Bitter, savory). We weren't very hungry so we went with our Server's suggestion of meat and seafood Samplers. Tuna Tartare and the mini Burger (surprisingly) stood out. We also ordered a mini Steak Tartare which was exquisite. Fried Octopus appetizer was also tasty. Ordered the Caesar Salad with Salmon (wasn't possible to have just salad and no protein)-dressing was sweet compared to what we're used to. Their Salice Salentino was delicious! Service was attentive and engaged. Relaxed and retro vibe that was pleasantly surprising. Might very well be the coolest Wine/cocktail bar in Monti!

During my most recent visit to Rome, on our first night in town, we braved the elements and made…read moreour way to Blackmarkt Hall - Rione Monti for a drink after dinner. I am the self-appointed king of speakeasies so I was excited to try out my first one in Rome. Ambiance (4/5): As a speakeasy snob, I'll say that Blackmarket Hall isn't a true speakeasy as the name of the bar is listed outside of the establishment. Thus, there's no element of surprise or a creative way to get inside. You just walk in and then you're treated by the host. Once you get inside, things improve. Blackmarket is a long speakeasy with multiple floors. There are some really cool rooms and some awesome nooks and crannies to sit in. They're not all created equally though. We were sat right outside of the door which isn't the most exciting place to be. Especially because the host uses a walkie-talkie to communicate with other members of the staff so it's loud and annoying. Service (3/5): We came on a weekday so we weren't expecting to need a reservation. That's part of why we didn't get better seats. Though it did seem like there were open spots. Make a reservation here just to be safe. That's the lesson I learned. Standard Italian service. Not terribly friendly or efficient but you make things work. Food (N/A): While they have food, we had dinner prior so we didn't try anything on their food menu. Drinks (4/5): When it comes to speakeasies, you're looking for creative cocktails. Which you do have here. The menu is themed after famous music, movies, and literature which is cool. I went with a Hemingway-inspired cocktail which was tasty. The cocktails could have been a bit more creative, overall, but a job well done. Next time around, I'll make a reservation and I'd love to try their food too.

Their chips with a ketchup-link dipping sauce was so good. I just know the rest of their food has to also be amazing as well. Definitely check this place out if in Rome. I'd recommend making a reservation just to be safe, as I can't imagine this place not skyrocketing to fame and getting very busy!
