    Sat outside this evening. Great spot that did not feel touristy. Short walk from the Roma Termini in case you are on a different part of the city. We had the Bufala Pizza, Tonarelli Cacio e Pepe, and the Spaghetti Bolognese. Overall great experience. Definitely recommend.

    Great dolces, too....  Watch that sorbet it's tart my friend.

    Our hotel recommended this place. This is an ur-locals joint not tourist-focused yet they're welcoming to obvious tourists as well (such as us). Solid food across the board. The house white was a cut above. No golden-age jazz playing, instead Champions League match.

    Amazing pizza. Doesn't look like all that, but it was so good we could have ordered several more!

    We asked our hotel for restaurant suggestions. This was one of them. I had a nice salad and the Penne all'arrabbiata which I really enjoyed. My partner had a pizza. We were in Italy and the Mediterranean for three weeks and both of us agreed that this pizza was the best one we had ever had, not only in Italy but anywhere. Very impressive.

    "La mela d'oro" pizza

    Excellent authentic Italian food! Small restaurant with a very large menu, including drinks, desserts and everything in between! Everything we ordered was delicious (see pictures). Very friendly service of a relaxed and leisurely meal!

    Gluten free pizza. Very good

    Superb gluten free pizza. Best we had in Rome. We're told it was rice flour crust. Delicious negroni. Friendly staff. Reasonable prices. Free limoncello shots. Would come back for sure.

    The service wasn't the best. Came out with wrong food for me but fixed it. The Cacio de Pepe was good and spicy. The place has outdoor seating too. Ravioli was bland.

    Tiramisu was the best we've had in Italy so far.

    We ate outside, which is often asking for poor service - NOT! The four of us tourists enjoyed our meals and service. Reasonably priced.

    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!
