You might easily eat standing, or get it to go when it's too busy. Still, the food is top notch, whatever you order is going to match your best experience at the best established restaurants. Pasta cacio & pepe? It's easily as good as Felice's in Testaccio. The chicory? The tastiest I've ever had, and that goes for roasted potatoes as well. Lemon chicken? Outstanding. Straccetti? Soft and juicy, truly Garbatella style. You also have daily specials, so Norma pasta is on Wed, and amazing meatballs on Friday. Interestingly enough I've never tried their pizza, but that might change soon. Pomodoro & Mozzarella is my one and only go to lunch joint when I'm working in this area - it's amazingly good, diverse, cheap (cash-only) and fast. I'd like to recommend the one thing but I quite literally think that whatever you're going to try will amaze you. Enjoy.

Paolo and Massimo are the real deal…read more If you're lucky enough to get a table at Hosteria Antica, you're in for much more than an incredible meal. You'll enjoy their family-style hospitality, hear stories that bring the region to life, and experience the warmth that makes Italy so special. The food is outstanding, but don't stop there--take in the culture, the history, and the flavors that have been passed down through generations. Every dish feels authentic, every recommendation is made with pride, and every moment feels like you're part of the family. A truly memorable experience and one of the highlights of our time in Italy.

We sat outdoors and enjoyed appetizers and a bottle of Chardonnay recommended by our fabulous server. I usually don't love that white variety, however, things always taste better in Italy! For dinner we tried the house specials. They were unique but tasty. Authentic and true to tradition. The chicken and the lasagna. I will come here every time I find myself in Rome now.

We intended to go to another place near the Catacombs, but found it was closed when we arrived. The area is pretty remote, but someone told us of Garden Bistro a short walk away. This was a great find since we loved this place! The restaurant is beautiful inside, decorated very nicely, with lots of sunlight. They offered a price fixe lunch menu which included a glass of wine, two courses, coffee, and dessert. The food was excellent, especially the carpaccio that my wife ordered. Dessert with espresso topped off a great lunch! If you're visiting the Catacombs, look up this place and take the walk, it's worth it!

It was so good. The Napoli pizza was okay but probably wouldn't order it next time. The tiramisu was so good. Definitely very different than what I'm used to. It was so creamy and thicker but it melts in your mouth. The reason why I took off one star was because of the service. The servers were so rude. They were very short when I asked them something about the menu. Besides that, food was tasty.
