    Sausage and mozzarella pizza and pappardelle pasta with meat sauce
    Eyang G.

    The food and service were amazing. Best pizza and I had while in Rome! You can watch the staff make the pizza and pasta from scratch which was also a plus. The staff were very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. The restaurant is located near the city center so it's easy to walk to from the Trevi Fountain and other attractions.

    Great spot near a lot of hotels. Looks small from the outside but they had a basement, main floor, upstairs, and outdoor seating. The staff was very friendly and helpful. You could watch them making the pasta in the window, which was fun while waiting for a takeout order to take back to my hotel. The prices were very reasonable for the amount of food you get. The pizza is very thin which is the traditional Rome way. Both pizzas were delicious but cooked different. One was a little undercooked but still very good. The drinks were ice cold which was very appreciated. I would definitely come back and try more things on their menu!

    Gnocchi pomodoro with basil

    The food was great. Italian families were sitting next to us along with tourists. We ordered a salad and eggplant parmigiana to start both were delicious. They brought bread to the table which was helpful in sopping up the leftover sauces. We were so satisfied at the end we couldn't even order dessert. You can watch them make the fresh pasta in the window, you can take some home too.

    We got an outside table easily on a weekday for lunch at La Bruschetta. I went inside the restaurant to use the restroom, and saw that there was a lot of seating indoors as well. There is a window you can look into from the sidewalk outside where you can watch one of the employees making fresh pasta! The service was very friendly while ordering and receiving our meals. I ordered a ravioli dish, mushroom and cheese in a butter and sage sauce. It was very good, but unfortunately I ate about 20 minutes after the rest of my family because the wrong dish was brought to me at first. They made my dish as quickly as possible but it was a little disappointing. The kids wanted to have the Nutella pizza for dessert, which is basically a thin crust covered with Nutella, but if you're a Nutella fan you'll love it! There are many places to eat in Rome and I am glad I tried La Bruschetta!

    Taglioni al Pesto Fatto in Casa con Pinoli e Parmigiano 39 Mesi

    My girlfriend and I came here upon a recommendation by a lady at the hotel. My girlfriend really enjoyed her salmon linguine with cream sauce, but I had the pesto linguine, and it was not as tasty as I make it at home. I generally use a lot of garlic, pine nuts and basil, so my dish here was just okay. We both ordered gelato for dessert, it came in three scoops, she had the hazelnut gelato and I had the limone gelato. She only had two scoops, I ate the third. I ate all of my limone gelato, it was very light, lemony and tasty with a hint of tartness. I recommend this place because of the gelato, but because the salmon cream pasta was good, I gave this place four stars. It's centrally located in a ritzy part of Rome near the Westin Excelsior Hotel. As we were leaving, there were a ton of people waiting in line to come into the restaurant to dine, so it's a very popular place to eat. Do try it out, and make space for a gelato in your tummy, because the flavors are both delightful and delicious! It's a very cute, very small place, so be sure to make your dining reservations in advance! Do try to taxi a taxi or bus, because parking is crowded right in this location.

    Delicious restaurant! All fresh and homemade pasta and desserts. Indoor and outdoor seating. Nice wine and drink selection. Friendly service. Nice interior. Great dinner and recommend. Down the street a few blocks from W Rome (Marriott hotel)

    Fettuccine Alfredo
    Ryan H.

    This is cool local establishment with pasta and pizza options. Both are made fresh in house. The service is good and the ambiance is romantic and friendly. We were able to reserve a table outside and enjoy our mile while enjoying the Roman vibe. We had several different pastas including fettuccine Alfredo, calamari pasta, spicy tomato, and shared a pizza. The pizza was delicious. I could eat a few of them! Like many places in Europe, be prepared to pay the same for water as you do for soda or beer. Our group of 6 drank €20 of water alone!!! Great food and many options. If you have a larger group I recommend making a reservation.

    This was a perfect place to come and enjoy a family owned environment. The indoor atmosphere was great being able to watch them cook your pizza right in front of you. The olive appetizer was first introduced to us in Venice and theirs here was by far the best. Highly recommended a Rome Pizza experience. P.s. Pizza was a perfect wood fire. This was a great place to end a 12 day Italy tour!

    Fettuccine Ragu
    Susan W.

    Rounding up to 4 from 3.5 because of great service. Would pull back 1/2 star from 4 for the "bread service charge" they add to your bill. Went here a few weeks ago with a few coworkers. We split appetizers of deep fried olives, artichoke & bruschetta. They were all good and we were happy with them all. I had the cannelloni and it was the best thing I've eaten in Rome in 2 years. One coworker got the fettuccine ragu and I was almost jealous I didn't get it. I'll get it next time. The 3rd coworker got the least amazing dish, ravioli, but she still enjoyed it. Nice pours of wine, reservations not necessary if you go early but I would recommend making anyways to insure you get a table.

    Mozzarella and tomatoes

    Had the lasagne and the margarita pizza. Also the mozzarella with tomatoes (tomatoes tasted like they were perfectly ripe!). Kinda small but in a quaint fashion. Very attentive staff. Would definitely recommend.

    Aperol spritz, carbonara and pizza!

    Passed this spot on the way back to the hotel and thought I need to try and returned to find a…read moresmaller almost "hole in the wall" space with an extensive variety of specialty pie options and some fun signs posted-ie "If you ask me for ketchup and mayonnaise I'll call the police!!." They have a small pizza and a bigger size which I would say is about 10 inches. The small size was sold out on my first visit and found out better to arrive earlier (before 6) for these. The Mini pies are good if you want to try a few varieties-so many so little time. Ordered the big Amatriciana (the unloved pasta dish of the big Roman four as a pizza) which was recommended-Pecorino, mozzarella with the Pork cheeks taking it over the top-one of their most popular and rightfully so! On the second visit , they had the small size pies-Friarielli & Salsiccia-Broccoli Rave and sausage-tasty, Fegato & Cipolla-pork liver sausage with onions and peppers made for a "not everyday" and delicious pie. Both visits service was excellent and engaged. This place screams independent and one of a kind but it turns out they are a regional chain with a handful of locations. Amazing pizza with so many options!

Plus, the space is very hot inside, but better to sit near the window or do takeaway. I wasn't very hungry, but wanted one last pizza in Italy. When I saw that this spot does mini pizzas, which means I was able to choose a variety of flavors; I was so excited! Unfortunately, they ran out of the mini pizza dough and only had the large. It really is a shame, because I didn't think the bigger version is worth €15 each. Nonetheless, I ordered the Burrata & Anchovies while the husband got Pepperoni. I really did enjoy the flavor and chewiness of the dough. The burrata also gave it such a nice creaminess to balance the pizza that worked perfectly. Sadly, I had to waste a slice because I couldn't finish the larger pizza, so still a bit upset that I couldn't order the mini. With that said, it's a delicious pizza spot.
