FOOD - Fresh, well-seasoned, tasty, enough so that everyone was stuffed by the time starters and entrees had come and gone ... and a couple of us still found room for excellent desserts. We had started with limoncello spritzes, which cooled us off nicely. A liter of the house red was perfect accompaniment for the food. SERVICE - We arrived almost a half-hour before our reservation time, and they didn't bat an eyelash. Our waiter was friendly, helpful, engaging, and attentive. Good job. AMBIANCE - Nice brick and stone interior, lending a sense of antiquities and class. NET-NET - I would come back here at the drop of a hat. It wasn't cheap, but more than worth it for what we got.

We first visited La Tavernaccia in October 2023 and loved it so much that we knew we had to return…read more This time, we came back to celebrate my husband's birthday and to enjoy our favorite dishes again--the Roasted Suckling Pig and the Spaghettoni all'uovo alla Gricia. Both were every bit as incredible as we remembered: the pasta rich and full of flavor with pecorino and guanciale, and the pig perfectly tender and juicy with that irresistible crispy skin. Yumm! We started with the Crostino N'Duja, which was rustic, spicy, and the perfect way to kick off the meal. We also ordered a charcuterie plate. To finish, the lemon torte was bright, refreshing, and surprisingly, not too tart. It was exactly just the way we like it. Kevin's service was outstanding--warm, attentive, and genuinely thoughtful, which made the celebration feel even more special. We were given a couple of shots and a special cookie for my hub's birthday and after learning I am Filipino, he also offered us shots of his own special Ube liqueur. La Tavernaccia has truly become one of our favorite places in Rome, and we already can't wait to come back again to try something new that Kevin highly recommended - the Roasted Veal.

We had Straccetti alla Roma (strips of beef with arugula, Parmesan, and cherry tomatoes--this was on the specials/alternative menu), Tonnarelli Amatriciana (my absolute favorite of the four Roman pasta sauces), Caprese salad, grilled vegetables, and a calzone with mozzarella, mushrooms, and sausage. Service was great, the ambiance was cozy and warm. Although it was steps away from very busy and touristy areas, I really felt this was not a tourist trap by any means. I had made a reservation, and I'm glad I did because this place got very bustling and busy even on a weeknight. I would happily return!

We waited a bit but when no four legged solution arrived, we went searching again and found Arancio d'Oro. They were happy to see us and our smiling server did a nice job, at least until it was time for the bill. That went too slow, the opinion of an American tourist who still can't accept the end game for a meal is more likely than not to drag on. My wife declined my wish to have yet another pizza in Rome, so I settled on Rigatoni alla carbonara. In truth it was just ok to me, al dente just seems like another word for undercooked. We left full and ready for an afternoon of doing even more stuff.

I also had the fried cod which was very good, and my wife had A sampling of a few different dishes. As for desserts hold on. You gotta hear this. The first time we got the chocolate Panna Cotta and the texture, coolness and sweetness on the tongue was remarkable, never having tasted anything quite so unique. A must try. One of the next nights we got the creme caramel which was absolutely outstanding. The lightest texture with powerful Caramell flavor.

I'll admit, when we first arrived, I almost didn't want to go in. There are no outdoor tables, no servers calling people in, and nothing flashy trying to grab attention. But that's exactly why this place is special. Once inside, we were so glad we stayed. The food was excellent -- simple, well-made, and full of real flavor. What we loved most is that the dishes tasted incredibly good without being overly salty or heavy, which really shows the quality of the ingredients and the care in the cooking. It's a true mom-and-pop shop, run with heart, not hype. This is the kind of place locals go to -- honest food, no gimmicks, and a calm, authentic atmosphere. If you're willing to look past first impressions, this spot is absolutely worth it. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates genuine Italian food done right.
