But that aside, the staff were polite, the food was decent. We had the ravioli which tasted like spaghetti O's sauce (from America). The lasagna was pretty decent. Aperol Spritz was definitely worth it. Overall would recommend as it was a decent value for the money.

We discovered this restaurant walking to another restaurant. Walking through what can only be described with what looks like an alleyway that was brightly lit up with a lot of restaurants and stores, and a very busy walk way that connects a lot of the locals and Taurus to shops and touristy spots such as the Trevi fountain. Outside had a lot of seating. It was beautiful weather. They had a long walkway filled with tables that were full and in front of the entrance, they were tables outside along the walkway, and there was inside seating. The outside was well lit with table lamps, and outside lighting. The front entrance was beautifully decorated with flowers. They had what I would call a restaurant MC someone who is interactive and brings in the crowd and is quick to get guests a seat at this very popular restaurant. The toilets are small, but this seems to be very common in Italy and most don't have a toilet seat. The service was amazing. We knew instantly we wanted to eat at this restaurant as I stated above there's a gentleman who was there both nights that we went to this restaurant who was quick to greet and get you prepared for a table. The service was quick. The food arrived quick to the table, and it was hot. The drinks were prompt to come to the table. Most of the employees spoke Italian and English. Everyone was nice but very business oriented and fast. It was a high volume restaurant so everybody was moving quick. Both nights we attended the restaurant, we got Aperol spritz and it was the best drinks we had in Rome. My mom got the gnocchi which was perfectly cooked in a meat sauce, and dollop of mozzarella. The roasted potatoes were cooked to perfection. They were soft and seasoned to taste. I ordered Caico e Pepe. It was the best fresh pasta and the right amount of sauce. When you plan your trip to Roma, Italy , you should definitely put this restaurant on your list. I can guarantee that you will not have any regrets. They do accept most credit cards, typically Visa and MasterCard are the most widely accepted in Rome. The menu was in English and Italian. Saluti

We anticipated crowds and a wait, but there was actually no wait at lunch time and there were actually quite a few open tables. That was a bit of a concern at first (because a line and crowd usually means the place is good), but as I saw (and smelled) food coming out my concerns dissipated! Unfortunately our waiter wasn't able to identify another customer's pasta dish for us, but it all worked out in the end because I ended up loving our choices. We got the carbonara, which was cheesy and tasty,...Everything you want a creamy pasta to be! Pasta is al dente, felt so fresh and if you're from America, you're gonna love this because I felt the difference immediately. The meatballs were soft and tasty. We loved the chicory and potatoes! Those potatoes were so good I would choose them over fries (omg so American I know). I got the Mimi's spritz, which tasted like a Aperol spritz. One of my favorite spritz's of the trip! It's true what they say about Italian ingredients, and the price point is great. I tried some of my friend's Italian soda called Chinotto Neri, it's like a cola but less sweet but still tasty and refreshing. Mimi is a dependable pasta spot, with plenty of menu options for pasta and beverages. If I had more time in Rome I would have certainly returned especially given that they have several locations in the city. Highly recommended!

It is a large restaurant and was full of lively patrons. The indoor decor is warm and inviting. The first thing I noticed was the camaraderie between the waitstaff - everyone seemed to get along, helped each other and were having fun. We had 2 wonderful Filipino waiters. One had the same Ray-Ban meta glasses as my husband, which they bonded over. We ordered the bombolotti carbonara and lasagna-both delicious. For the mains, grilled Turbot (which was perfectly de-boned tableside) and meatballs w/ mashed potatoes. While the waiter was de-boning the fish, the song "Take Me Home, Country Roads" by John Denver came on overhead. My husband and I both looked at each other and smiled, thinking WTH?! I asked the waiter, "did we tell you we were from West Virginia?" and he smiled and shook his head. But later confessed, he played it for us (I guess we did tell him, lol). It made our night. Rome was the last city in our multi-city 12 day tour and we loved every minute but we were looking forward to going home. Hearing "Country Roads" at a popular and busy restaurant a block away from the Spanish Steps blew our minds. A young couple sat next to us for a quick snack, I asked her what she ordered (it looked delicious) and she said "Im from a different part of Italy but come here just for their artichokes". A few minutes later, I saw a plate full of artichokes pass by, being brought to a table outside. They made my mouth water. Al 34 was one of our favorite restaurants in Italy -- wonderful food (extensive menu), very lively with a mixed crowd (lots of Asians, English speakers and native Italians). It is a fun place to go and the wait staff is one of the reasons I will be coming back. I cant wait to try their artichokes! If you see the word, carciofo (artichoke), order it!

Service: 4 stars. I feel like we were treated well and given a lot of attention by the staff and owner when we arrived. As they got busier service did start to slow down but all in all we were checked up on and given good recommendations on the wine and popular items on the menu. We started with the basics and everything was "good" but not "amazing". Bread, soup, and salad were all good. The pizza was also just "okay". We got the mushroom pizza and we agreed that it was okay. Okay isn't good enough though when your in Italy as you'll find there are so many amazing options to choose from! The saving grace and reason as mentioned above for the ending 4 stars was how amazing my Pasta Carbonara was. My pasta carbonara was rich and creamy. The bacon on top was cooked and crispy to perfection. One of the best pastas I had on this trip. Scala really is a toss up. If your a carbonara freak like me you might just have to look past some of the "misses" to give this spot a try. However, to the majority of the group this spot falls at a solid 3 stars showing that the group consensus was a pass. There is just so much competition for amazing pastas and pizzas I think this place need to step up its service and recipes to be a fan favorite. I'm generously going to give 4 stars because the pasta was delicious.

We could see a little Italian man cooking in the back, and we immediately knew the food was going to be incredible.. and it was. I'll be dreaming about the eggplant Parmesan until I return to Rome. The tiramisu my brother ordered was also delicious, and he got the lasagna, which was another 10 out of 10. The meat and cheese charcuterie board was so good that we ate all of it, even though we don't usually like prosciutto. Everything tasted incredibly fresh. Great service, great wine, and great food. 10 out of 10. I would absolutely recommend Suburra 1930 and will definitely return the next time I'm in Rome.

The menu felt like a beautiful balance of modern creativity and classic Italian tradition. Every dish tasted intentional, like each flavor had a purpose and nothing was just there for decoration. It's the kind of place where you can tell the kitchen really cares about the details. The atmosphere was just as memorable--cozy, warm, and the perfect spot to slow down and enjoy a long dinner together after wandering the city all day. And the tiramisu? Absolutely unforgettable. Light, rich, and perfectly balanced. I loved it so much that we came back the very next night just to have it again. If you're in Rome and looking for thoughtful, beautifully executed Italian food in a comfortable setting, this place is definitely worth a visit.
