This place is around the corner from the hotel we stayed in. They are pretty much open all day. They have a large menu. The pizza is fresh and made to order and was delicious. They offer free WiFi, so it is a cool place to go have some pizza and wine and just hang out. The bread is so good and they offer a lot of different desserts. They also offer pasta making classes (they have a classroom next door). read more

La Bruschetta - Mozzarella sausage mushrooms - Italian Near Me - Roma, 62

This was probably my husband's favorite place to eat. We ate here twice. The pizza was very good. The caprece was excellent. The second time we had it with smoked mozzarella. Oh my goodness, that was so good. The service was stellar. We thought about trying another place, but decided why risk it when everything was so good here. We did venture out of their pizza menu to try cannoli stuffed with veal. I was not disappointed. After walking around Rome in the heat it was nice to find this awesome restaurant near our hotel. read more

What a great first stop for lunch on our arrival to Rome. We had garlic and olive oil bruschetta, tomato mozzarella bruschetta, cheese pizza and gnocchi. They were all delicious and the water was very attentive. We also tried the lemon cream cake, it was delicious also. The cafe is nicely decorated and quite busy. Cost was about 65 euro. read more

Love this place, family owned and it shows, they have a lot of love for what they do. The food is amazing and their son, Aldo, made our meal so memorable. We will absolutely come back each time we visit Rome and hope to see Aldo again! Thank you for a wonderful last night in Rome! read more

This small cafe was close to our hotel. We ordered cannelloni, pasta bolognese , wine, beer, and desserts. The pasta is made fresh and is incredible. The service was perfect as was the food. The desserts were scrumptious. We highly recommend to try this cafe while in Rome. read more

Careful! This places has several sneaky charges including a 12% "servizzio" charge and a 2.20 euro charge per person for basic bread. Food is great, but just go in with your eyes open:) read more

So this place is small and busy but fast and pleasant. Since my mother was injured during out trip, I ordered from this place several times for lunch. I picked it up to take back to the hotel. I ordered the same thing every time and we enjoyed each time. I ordered a margarita pizza and a salad. The pizza was a nice thin crust and cooked perfectly. The ingredients tasted so extremely fresh, like they picked it all in the back before they made it. If I am ever in the area again, I would definitely go back. Oh I was told they charge a fee for dining in so you've been warned. read more

My boyfriend and I arrived in Rome on Sunday afternoon and stumbled upon this place by chance. We ordered the house wine and gnocchi. The gnocchi was so pillowy, delicious, and the best we had our entire two week trip through Italy!! The restaurant is clean and had a homey feel to it. Would recommend for a lunch if you're in the area. read more

We were staying on Via Ludovisi and went out in search of a late dinner on our first day in Rome (late by American standards, I'm still amazed that people regularly eat dinner at 9 on weekdays in Rome and am grateful they do because it's just so much easier to eat later when traveling). We got a caprese salad, carbonara pasta, weiner schnitzel, and a tiramisu. The caprese was so fresh and fantastic! The carbonara was very creamy and perfect. The weiner schnitzel was tender according to my mom. The tiramisu was probably the highlight-- so soft and creamy and perfectly sweet. The staff was so pleasant and welcoming and helpful! read more

There is an interesting thing when reviewing. I thing people expect a lot different things. I will try to tell you what we got honestly. This was the first place my wife got Pizza in Rome. She loved it. I do not thing its the best pizza in Rome but it hits the right qualities. They have a robust menu of Pizzas. We sat outside and the two times we came it was virtually empty but we were eating at weird times. I would give this place five stars for a place to grab a nice pizza at a random time. We didn't go their for any official meal but to stop share a pizza as a snack and move on. I can only review their pizza and service. Both time we walked up it was very easy to sit down outside under a nice awning. We ordered a craft of wine both times. It was good for house wine, what more can you ask for with a half liter being 9.5 euros. Once we ordered the pizza was out in about 10 mins, maybe quicker. It was delicious and thin like you expect in Italy. Yes the do charge for bread. I feel like that is extremely common. Its nothing more than a couple euros. Suggestion if you do not want to get charged for bread, ask for it to be taken away the second you see it. This isnt the only place to charge for bread in Rome. Of streetside restaurants like this probably 70% do. I just realize I save money with the tips being lower so i dont care. TLDR: If you want a quick good pizza around the hotel district this is a perfect place. Also, about bad service, I read waiters in Italy expect to be signaled to your table for most things. This was what I found very true about Rome. If you need something grab them. I thing people are used to American waiters checking in every 5 mins. read more

This was our first stop after going to our nearby hotel We had pizzas and beers. Very nice thicker crust than most Roma pizzas we noted. I love the true Italian pizzas rather than making it touristy friendly (i.e. loading it with 4 cups of cheese to satisfy the Americans.) We found the service to be nice, friendly and full of suggestions and helpful tips. read more

INCREDIBLE food and service! Hilarious server who made our meal even more fun, with his vast knowledge of American sports (including SEC college football)! Pasta was amazing, and Desserts are TO DIE FOR! Will return on our next trip! read more

Charged us for stale bread we did not order. Food not good. Server attitude bad. Will not got again.

Super cute place. Excellent food and good service. It was pouring rain outside and it was great to get an inside table. The price was much less expensive than places on the main boulevards. Definitely recommend. read more

Pasta wasn't bad but the sauce was very bland. The meal overall was dull and very dissapointing, there just wasn't much flavor to it. All the other Rome food had life and full of flavor. Service was bad the waiter forgot things constantly. We were the only people in the whole restaurant and still had bad service. They charge extra fees other restaurants don't. Not a good experience and tons of other amazing delicous restaurants In Rome that are much better than this one. read more

Can't say enough about this wonderful restaurant! It came highly recommended by our tour guides and did not disappoint! Everything was homemade and delicious. The service was amazing as well. It was a great part of our Italy experience! read more

"This is the place!" La Bruschetta is a small restaurant located literally right around the corner from the Rome Marriott Grand Hotel Flora on Via Sardegna. This place was our first, second, and last place for dinner in Rome. Why you ask? Well our first day we decided to go somewhere with decent ratings near by. Not having been all that hungry, we decided not to have dessert. The very personable waiter working that night made us promise that we'd come back the next night to try the excellent tiramisu, lest our "nose grow long like mine" he said. So we did return the next night. And on our final night, we wanted something quick and inexpensive that we could take back to our room and eat while we packed, so back we went. Having loved their tiramisu, I ordered it to go too. It's normally served in a glass goblet and they offered to let me take it with me so long as I brought it back when I was done! So needless to say, service here is good. Prices aren't bad either, having spent between $40-70 across all of our visits. These prices included all food orders, bottled water, and the "bread fee" which is charged to you no matter if you eat the bread or not... sadly, the bread here is terrible. Hard, but not crusty and had a strange texture. So what did we have? On our first night, we ordered the cherry tomato & mozzarella bruschetta. Luckily, the bread used for the bruschetta is much better than the bread served to you. The cherry tomatoes were very sweet and juicy, while the mozzarella was nice and fresh. Of course the drizzle of olive oil and sprinkling of salt helped to tie everything together and make it that much better! For our main courses, we actually ordered the spaghetti 'alla amatriciana, the gorgonzola gnocchi, the spaghetti carbonara, and the pizza with mushrooms and prosciutto on our different visits. Yes, we ended up re-ordering a few of the items since we liked it so much! Those items would have been the amatriciana and the pizza. Gorgonzola gnocchi. This was a tasty dish if you like gorgonzola, but it does get a bit one-dimensional and heavy. Spaghetti 'alla amatriciana: this was my favorite interpretation of the dish! Tomato, bacon and cheese. It was well balanced with a bit of heat, though I can't figure out how they keep the bacon so crispy! Fantastic! The pizza here is also a winner! Thin, crisp crust made in their brick oven with a good amount of sauce and cheese. There are also a good amount of mushrooms, which are cooked with the pizza in the oven. Added after cooking is the prosciutto. The pizza is simply amazing! Finally we have the spaghetti 'alla carbonara. This dish was ok in my opinion. The sauce was a little thin and didn't have enough cheese. Thankfully, though, it was made with just egg, cheese and bacon and no milk or cream as is often the case at US restaurants! Like the amatriciana, the bacon in the carbonara was very crisp! To end our meal on two of the 3 occasions, as stated earlier, we ordered the tiramisu. The tiramisu is great with good coffee flavor and an excellent mascarpone cream! And even better? No strong alcohol flavor like is often the case in the US. This is the real deal! Would I come back to La Bruschetta? Yes! If I ever return to Rome, I will make it an effort to dine here again. I'd highly recommend it to anyone that goes to the Eternal City. Just be mindful that you will be charged a bread fee. read more

Overall- great service, great food and comfortable atmosphere! I am traveling with a family group of 8 and after reading some reviews we decided on La Bruschetta Pizzeria. They were very accommodating of our large group and got us seated right inside immediately. Our waiter was very friendly and funny and the entire wait staff made us comfortable. We each got a pizza- didn't try a variety of menu items. We were definitely not disappointed by our choices! The pizza was crispy, delicious and loaded with good toppings. We liked the house white wine a lot and after letting us try the house red they were able to make a recommendation for something we liked better. We had a great experience! read more

I was in Rome for the better part of a week, and yes there are soooo many trattorias to choose from. We chose Las Bruschetta on a lark, after passing by several posh (looking) places on Via Veneto, and are very glad that we did. I give five stars for two simple reasons; great service, and great food. With so many restaurants to choose from, it's nice to be appreciated, to be welcomed and treated as a guest. The food is excellent. La Bruschetta is not Michelin rated, right, and at the end of the day we're talking about relatively simple fare. Yet they prepare their food with obvious care, it our meal was absolutely delicious. We had pizza con funghi e prosciutto and it was near perfect - thin crust with just the right amount of crunch, very light tomato sauce, plenty of fresh mushrooms, a nice layer of prosciutto, the perfect amount of cheese. We also shared a caprese salad which could not have been better. The cheese was fresh, the tomatoes sweet and ripe, a sprig of basil to garnish as we wished. We dressed simply with a little oil and balsamic, and were in heaven! We are not so familiar with italian wines, yet had in mind a light varietal, and ordered a Sangiovese. Our waiter brought the bottle, and before opening asked about our preference, just to make sure we had the right wine. Based on what we shared he recommended a Barbera instead, no difference in price, and it was a perfect accompaniment for the meal, as well as for our palettes. If you are in the area, skip the trendy looking places on the busy street, and find La Bruschetta, I cannot imagine that you will be disappointed. read more

We were tired from our day of travel and Wales past this place and stopped for dinner. I should have ready Yelp reviews first. It was pretty average at best. My son got a pasta dish and it was ok. The portion was pretty small. I got Veal Saltimbocca and it was the worst I have ever had! I have had fabulous Saltimboca in this town, not at this place! No flavor to and in a big puddle of butter. The mixed salad was nice and fresh. As someone else mentioned, he brought us bread and never mentioned it was 4.50 euros. The bread was great but didn't expect it to cost me since we didn't ask for it. The waiter poured on the charm but it was fake. Don't go here... there are so many better choices nearby! read more

Service was great which is why I'm giving 2 stars. Friendly and a clean location. Had the spaghetti with pesto which was just ok and penne arra biatta. (Spicy tomato sauce) about as spicy as a packet of ketchup. Penne was a tad undercooked in my opinion. Went around closing time so this may have affected my food. They close at 11:30 FYI. Drinks are pricy so watch out. Think my water was filled up by tap and brought to me. Water kinda cold bottle warm and the top fell off when he opened it. Hmm. read more

Food ok - I had better and fresher pasta and verdure in Venice and Paris. Server attitude towards you if you are vegetarian/don't drink - bad! And then to try make money they got petty - put some starter bread on the table (it was stale and we nibbled on a piece and discarded it) - then they charged us €5.40 for it! (Wtf) On top of it - when I asked about it, they tried to behave like that was how it typically is. I have been to Venice, Paris and lived in the US for 10 years - at no Italian place ever, did they ever put starter bread (without letting us know it was chargeable) and then charge for it! Petty. Avoid the place. read more

I came for their pizza. I had the mushroom with raw prosciutto on top. Best thin crust pizza in my opinion!

Suggested by a tour guide we found La Bruschetta to be below expectations. Yes - the restaurant had that old fashioned Italian feel as family members - old and young - worked the kitchen and tables. Regardless - service was slow, inattentive and distant. When menus were finally received we decided on basic Italian. The Pasta Bolognese and Lasagna was acceptable but that's all. The Pasta Carbonara a true disappointment. The highlight - A Chianti. Again - No bad Red Wines in Italy. Of Note: Bread was fresh and delivered without request. At La Bruschetta - and most restaurants in Italy - you pay for your bread. read more

These were delicious and fresh tasting.Do not miss out on a visit to via Sardegna 39 very special place! read more
