    Cheese Cake
    Tom B.

    Fabulous cafe / restaurant. Stopped in for dinner, at a table outside. Service was excellent, food was amazing, portions were enough for two to share. Caprese with Buffalo Mozzarella ( very tasty) Gnocchis with Ragu meat sauce - unbelievably delicious Two out of the world desserts- Cheese cake and ?

    Bread basket (not free).

    This was my go to place to eat while I was in Rome for 2 weeks. Great good. Great service. My favorite dish was the polenta with wild boar ragú! Too bad I ordered this at my last meal there...if I had only know how delicious it was I would have ordered it multiple times.

    Found this little place around the corner from our hotel in Rome. We got a table since it was early (6:30pm) for Rome restaurant patrons. We sat outside and started with a bread basket. There was a delicious freshly sliced bread along with packaged crackers. We selected from a large menu, including specials of the day. I selected the special which included a spaghetti carbonara, then on to a grilled veal steak and French fries. After this, a light refreshing fruit cup. We also had the penne al pomodoro, a delicious gnocchi dish, a beautiful cypress salad, and a lasagna special with a delicious veal steak in a light sauce. All in all, from beginning to end, this was a good experience and we would come back to try other dishes.

    Our first meal in Rome was here, and I'm so glad it was here. We arrived on Christmas Eve and…read morewanted a good meal. Our hotel manager had suggested another restaurant, but I was apprehensive to try, but did later, more on that restaurant review in it's own post. I rather did what I should have done throughout the trip to, which is to search google for local reviews. This tactic I found to be much better than to trust American reviews for restaurants to visit from Youtube or even here, just because the American touristy taste tends to favor bland or Olive Garden style pseudo Italian. The real Italian taste is much different and something one needs to develop. I was familiar with European Italian food, as I had said before in other reviews that Mexico has better Italian food outside of Italy. Additionally, the good restaurants here in Italy do not open before 7 PM. If it does or if someone that looks foreign to Italy is outside trying to lure you in, it's a tourist restaurant with iffy flavor. At this restaurant my husband had the Lobster pasta and I had the spinach/ricotta ravioli, and we both were beyond satisfied. We also had the artichoke as an appetizer, and trusted the waiter with his suggestion for a bottle of wine. He must have been some genius because the wine went well with our meal. The ambience was cozy and very family oriented, however, the rain outside made it romantic for us. Another key point for this restaurant and it traditional flare was that they brought out the olive oil and red vinegar for our salad and of course olive oil for our wonderful home-made bread. I'm so glad we chose this place for those of us Americans who understand culinary cuisine.

    Revisited after 19 years - truly authentic and will return…read more Although, we didn't have the same waiter, he is still there after 29 + years. Every dish we ordered was delicious, not a crumb remained on the plate!
