    Cod cannoli
    Julia H.

    Food was tasty and came out relatively quick! The waitstaff were very kind to us and helped explain the menu. We sat indoors--it was a little warm inside despite the AC but it was not unbearable. I think we would have sat outside if we had known. We started with the cod cannoli, which was delicious. We had never had a salty cannoli before, but we really enjoyed the flavors and textures. We also got the eggplants norma, lamp chops, and chicken and peppers. All of us enjoyed our respective dishes! We left very full after our meal, so we didn't get a chance to try any dessert! Overall, a nice place to have a meal in a not-so-crowded area of Rome!

    Carbonara

    We came here at the recommendation of our Hotel and couldn't have had a more delicious dinner! The restaurant sits down beneath street level, and therefore doesn't have a ton of ambiance, but doesn't really need it for the area it's in. We had great, very attentive and friendly service. We started with house wine, bread and bruschetta. Followed by a Caesar salad that comes with chicken (with the biggest pieces of Parmesan I've ever seen on a salad!), pasta alla Norma, cacio e pepe and carbonara. While the pasta all Norma was good, the latter two dishes were definitely the stars and absolutely delicious! All dishes were nice sizes and served on very pretty plates!

    Amazing dinner

    Walked past and decided to stop - honestly our first place was closed. Absolutely a fantastic experience. Sat outside since it was a beautiful Roman evening. Service was prompt and helpful. Had a simple charcuterie for an appetizer that was awesome and a pasta dish that was life changing. This is a perfect place for dinner in the area. Can't wait to return.

    Great lasagne, ravioli, Caesar salad (comes w chicken). We went back for dinner after lunch as we liked the meal so much. At dinner we were given a free small bag of bread and a small dessert treat cookie. Staff were attentive and nice. Food flavorful.

    Amatriciana - order this!!!!!  Wow

    Incredible meal! We loved the meatballs in tomato sauce and also the meatballs in cheese and pepper sauce. The star of the show was the Amatriciana- trust me - you need this in your life. Luca was our waiter and did a great job recommending a wine for our meal. Outstanding expedite. We highly recommend this restaurant.

    Charged my wife and I 4 euros because we were Americans. I'd never go back and you shouldn't eat there

By the time we were seated, dozens of people were waiting behind us. We sipped an Aperol spritz and lemonade while we waited, chatting with fellow diners who raved about the restaurant. On a sweltering day, our kids were starting to struggle in the heat when the owner came outside and gave them mini pizzas breads. It was a thoughtful gesture that immediately made us feel welcome. Once seated, we ordered burrata, cacio e pepe, amatriciana pasta, pork chops, and fried artichokes. Everything was excellent, but the amatriciana was the standout--rich, savory, and unforgettable. The cacio e pepe was silky, the burrata fresh and creamy, the pork chops juicy, and the fried artichokes perfectly crisp. There's a reason people line up for Da Enzo. The food is exceptional, the atmosphere lively, and the hospitality remarkable. Without question, this was our best meal in Rome and one of our most memorable restaurant experiences.

    Overall 7/10. My partner and I got the burrata and bread as…read morean appetizer, I would give it a 5/10. The tomatoes were fresh and juicy but the burrata was a bit thick (referring to the outer aspect). Also the bread was a bit tough. The amatriciana was good, but not worth a 2 hour wait in a line, 7.5/10. Pasta was perfectly al dente, but the sauce wasn't anything to die for. I think you can get a very similar possibly better pasta in Rome without the wait. My girlfriend got the gnocchi pasta, which she said was a 7/10. The gnocchi was great, but again the sauce wasn't anything special Tiramisu, 10/10. This was amazing. It was sweet without being overpowering. The ladyfingers weren't soggy, and had that strong espresso taste. I would come back here just for this dessert. Also if you don't like cramped spaces, probably not the best spot. I could hear the people next to me better than I could hear the person across me haha.

Even though there was a bit of a wait, it was absolutely worth it once we were seated. The staff was friendly and attentive despite how busy the restaurant was. You could tell they were working hard to make sure everyone had a good experience.

    We chose this restaurant because of its outstanding trip advisor rating (4.8 stars with over 4,000…read morereviews), so we were expecting an amazing meal. Unfortunately, it ended up being one of the most disappointing meals of our trip to Rome. I want to start by saying the staff was wonderful--everyone was incredibly kind, welcoming, and attentive. We have absolutely no complaints about the service. The food, however, was very underwhelming. The Margherita pizza was undercooked, with dough that was still soft and not fully baked. The chicken dish tasted more like a simple stew and lacked flavor, and the lasagna was just average. Another red flag was that all of our food arrived within about five minutes of ordering, which made it seem like everything had been pre-made rather than freshly prepared. We rarely leave negative reviews, especially when the staff is so friendly, but we chose this restaurant specifically because of its exceptional reviews. I think it's only fair to share our honest experience so other travelers have realistic expectations. While the service was excellent, the food simply didn't live up to the reputation.

    It was a positive Yelp review that lured us to choose this restaurant for our first night meal…read moreafter traveling from USA. So, I felt that I owed a review of my own in appreciation. Being new to Rome, and having walked 20k steps on our first day, there are an abundance of options a for dining. We wanted something classically Rome nearby to our hotel. The Yelp review of this restaurant was sufficiently positive to entice us. Being American, we appreciate the earlier-than-customary dining options. We arrived at 6pm without a reservation. We were seated immediately. The restaurant is intimate and very well staffed. The wood fire oven is front-and-center and the fresh mozzarella is prominent in display. We ordered a bottle of wine ... all options are very fairly priced. This is nice. We started with a Greek salad to share. It was unlike any American Greek salad ... and a really delight. It is early June but the tomatoes and peppers were ripe and crisp and really fresh. My wife ordered the Marguerite pizza; I opted for the Gorgonzola pizza (the effusive review on Yelp was compelling). Both were solid. We appreciate the thin crust and the crisp edged. The center of both, however, was doughy and somewhat undercooked. Looking around ... the restaurant was over 50% full even at this early hour. Most were Americans. We saw a good number of diners with pasta dishes ... and none were left unfinished. Sadly, we don't have any comparisons to weigh (yet). So, I cannot affirm any "best of" citations, it this is certainly a solid trattoria/pizzeria. The staff are attentive and the food served hot and fresh.

    Super pizza place with a lot of other great stuff on the menu…read more I looked with envy at the other tables who were enjoying spectacular plates of spaghetti with mussels. * * * That said, my pizza was a grand slam home run. Many of their pizzas are quite elaborate With all sorts of exotic ingredients. I went super simple. Gorgonzola. Mozzarella. That's it. Just enough Mozzarella to cut the Gorgonzola and make for a good melt. * * * If you have never had a gorgonzola pizza, you have never lived. Just sayin'. * * * P.S. My lovely wife got a Norwegian salmon pizza. The Norwegian salmon was stacked up high on her pizza As if she was in the World Series of Poker and she was a big winner. I have never seen so much salmon on one plate. After our meal, I made a discreet phone call to the Norwegian embassy in Rome asking them if they still had any salmon left. The woman at the embassy assured me the Norwegian salmon supply was fine. That surprises me given all the salmon that was on my wife's pizza.
