As soon as we sat down, the waitress asked us what we wanted and she came back three times in the span of five minutes so I definitely wish I had more time to breathe and look at the really large menu. I got the vegan sandwich and it actually blew my mind that it was vegan. The cuts of meat were so realistic and the vegan Parm also tasted so close to the original. Altogether, if you had just gave me the sandwich and I was eating it I wouldn't have even questioned that it was vegan. The sandwiches here are so delicious, I would definitely come back.

Staff are very friendly and make it clear you can customize your sandwich if you want. The sandwiches came out within 10 minutes and were massive. Really nice bread, plenty of rocket, good vegan cheese and salami, grilled zucchini, and artichoke cream to top it off. Really satisfying and fulfilling sandwich. Located a block or two from the Vatican and open late (3am), what's there not to love about this place? Highly recommended.

There are a lot of restaurants between here and the Vatican but I used my fellow Yelpers! to see that this place was not a tourist trap with overpriced yet average food. I had also read that by simply walking a few blocks from the tourist location the price comes down BUT the tastes get better and it certainly proved true with Pasquale. Unfortunately for us, one of their offerings is a huge charcutier board but NOT today. Today was for pizza. Our pizza was so good and I tried a new [to me] Italian beer Ichnusa non filtrata which I really enjoyed.

The bottom came out crunchy and delicious. We enjoyed it so much we came back for our last lunch in Rome. This time we ordered the Speck and the Porchetta. A sandwich was about 9 euros and an aperol spritz was 6 euros. We had a great conversation with Claudio, the owner, about music and chatted with some of the other visitors.

Ottima paninoteca, ingredienti freschi e ricercati (dal pane casereccio al ripieno!), possibilità di comporre il panino a proprio piacimento. Fanno anche ottime insalate. Personale gentilissimo, i panini vengono serviti caldi. Vendono anche la porchetta di Ariccia a peso, la portano appena fatta ogni due giorni. Buona selezione di birre artigianali, sia italiane che straniere, prezzi molto contenuti, sia per il mangiare che per il bere. All'interno ci sono anche dei posti a sedere. Nelle vicinanze di Castel S. Angelo. read more

A yummy thing happened on the way to the Colosseum …read more.. Pane & Vino is a tiny sandwich shop near il Colosseo that specializes in local porchetta (stuffed pork loin) and is run by the friendliest owner of all time. He gets to know every customer on a first name basis. I'd go back more to see him than to have a sandwich. Seriously, he's pretty awesome. The menu is simple and focused on sandwiches featuring their famous porchetta so we tried two recommendations from the peppy proprietor. While waiting, I got a miniature bottle of Chardonnay and my spouse sipped a Coke Zero. The Traiano Porchetta sandwich (12€ - 4 stars) is an original creation of the out-going owner with a mighty Mustard-flavored blend of Roast Pork, Sun-dried Tomatoes, and Grilled Eggplant. I like mustard and, therefore, liked this specialty much more than my wife, but we ended up ignoring portions of the so-so bun. Pane & Vino Special Porchetta (12€ - 4 stars) was a huge sandwich with the sliced Roast Pork Porchetta plus Mozzarella Cheese, Grilled Eggplant, Grilled Peppers, Mushrooms, Lettuce, and Mayo on classic Italian Pane. It needed more mayonnaise or a sprinkle of balsamic and olive oil for my tastes, but there was no denying it was a hearty hero. There are lots of pane bread and sandwich shops in Rome, but there is only one -- Pane & Vino -- run by the most welcoming of owners ever. If I'm in the neighborhood again, I'll be sure to stop in for a casual chat and some yummy porchetta sandwiches on the way to the Colosseum.
