    Focaccia, caprese
    Jordin S.

    We found this little spot nestled off on a side street where it was much quieter. The tables outside were close but comfortable. We enjoyed a basket of focaccia and caprese to pair with a bottle of wine. The focaccia was thicker than we'd had in the area and we really enjoyed the seasoning. The caprese was simple but tasty. We had a mix up on our pizza order where we received a mushroom pizza versus potato pizza. They quickly offered to remake it but we decided we were okay without it and they removed it from the bill. Would recommend for a quiet and delicious evening in Trastevere.

    White wine blessed by Pope

    Peppo was one of our food spots on our Tour with Eating Europe. Our guide Valentina was so knowledgeable about the pasta, sauces, etc. We got to sample their margaritas pizza, their local white wine (blessed by the Pope) & red wine as well as 2 different types of pastas. One was pasta with cracked pepper and cheese, the other pasta with red sauce and seasonings. Honestly, all the food and wines were amazing, but I preferred the pasta with cheese and cracked pepper. The staff was on par and accommodated our large group in a swift and professional manner. I'd highly recommend Peppo!

    When we got there we were kind of nervous because everything was mostly seafood, but Ahmad said they would make anything we want any way we want it. And that they did! We had the fried risotto dish, the fried cod (my friend), 2 orders of pasta and the BEST pizza I've ever had in Rome. Let us not forget the tiramisu for dessert. I normally don't love tiramisu, but this was IMPOSSIBLE not to love. I'm not sure if Ahmad own the restaurant or not, but he is certainly the face and the jewel of it! Thank you for a great first night in Rome!

    Tasty pizza

    The ricotta filled crust was awesome, but the undercarriage of the pizza was a little floppy. Nonetheless, I love a thin crust! The pizza was tasty, but I think I prefer more toppings, but that's a personal preference. The aperol spritz was delicious and huge! The man who served us was polite and they provided adequate service.

    Food was delicious. Service is super friendly. Alessio take care of our party of 4 so well. Cozy place for visitors to get a full experience in Italy.

    Fantastic local Italian place with a seafood twist in a trendy neighborhood. I visited on a tuesday evening at seven pm, which is the beginning of their dinner time. The two of us shared four dishes. Octopus salad, pizza with anchovies, pasta with muscles and pepperoni cheese, and suppli. All of them were delicious. We especially enjoyed the octopus salad, which was very tender and perfectly seasoned. The pasta was also unique, something I have not seen offered at other restaurants. The pizza was fantastic, but the anchovies were a bit salty as expected. Sitting inside is abundant despite its exterior. Vibe is family oriented and romantic, and staff are very kind and friendly. I enjoyed dining there as the staff seemed to genuinely enjoy working together. I will definitely be back here on my next visit to Rome.

    Pizza in the wood burning oven

    We were almost not going out that night...but finally decided to go across the street to PePPO and that was the exactly right decision. The manager greeted us on the street and had a table waiting for us in minutes. The food was delicious, the atmosphere fun, and we were invited to go back into the kitchen to help make pizza! I could not recommend PePPO more enthusiastically. Go! Eat well! Have fun!!!

    Naples pizza, fried cod

    Pizza Marinara
    Stephen M.

    Love At First Bite Food 5 of 5 - Pizza Marinara is simple and rich in taste. The chefs here love good quality food. Price 5 of 5 - Simple pizza was 6€ compared to double that for a pizza with mushrooms and sausage Service 5 of 5 - Kyle was a gracious and patient waiter Atmosphere- packed with locals and fun.

    Mackerel on bruschetta?  Even my 11 year old loved it.
    Donnie Mac M.

    Walked by this place on our way back to our apartment, and we picked up on the friendly and collegial neighborhood vibe. I picked up a business card, and we made a reservation for dinner the next night. When we arrived, they had our table outside reserved. We ordered wine, and since it was so hot, they brought out an ice "bucket" which as actually a plastic gift style bag--cute idea! The wine list has great variety and a range of prices. We ordered a more expensive bottle of Avellino, the best we have had so far! We had two bruschetta for antipasti: one mackerel and another with anchovies. Both were incredible!! We also had the octopus potato croquette which was everyone's favorite at the table. For dinner, we shared two pastas: one was green fettuccini with raw shrimp, and the other was spaghetti with octopus. The pastas were perfectly cooked with flavorful sauces. We also shared a Margherita pizza, which had an excellent crust and very flavorful cheese and basil. Our waiter, Simone, brought us some digestivo out for after dinner on the house! Very authentic experience, as the menu is in Italiano, but they have an English version you can download on your phone. We would go back!!

    Peppo and his entire staff welcomed me with exceptional warmth and care, the service was impeccable, the space is inviting, and the food was, oh, so good! I had the traditional Roman chicory and the pizza special with eggplant, red and yellow grape tomatoes, mozzarella, and fresh basil. A very special "Thank you!" goes to Alam, the master at the oven, who made my pizza. No doubt, I will be back again before I leave, and I highly recommend this to anyone visiting Rome.

    Pizza special of the day tomato sauce two types of cheese mozzarella pecorino eggplant mushrooms and tomatoes!

    Everyone needs a trip to Italy, if nothing more than to enjoy all of the food…read more When you've landed, you're hungry, and it's not lunch time, and it's not dinner time, you may end up, selling for whatever you can find is open We were absolutely starving, and wanting to indulge in our first Italian meal, what do you do when you're in Italy?! You may want to indulge in pasta or pizza! We walked in, and we were immediately seated. Air conditioning is nonexistent, and on a hot summer day, it would've been cooler to dine outside. had that been an option, and it was 95° out. As soon as we were seated, we were immediately told that Pizza and some of their baked Italian dishes were not going to be available. Boo. The wait staff seemed fairly nice, and offered to bring us glasses of water. The glasses were super tiny, and thankfully the waitress brought over a carafe of water. We asked for a few suggestions, since both of us had been craving pizza, and she suggested the Carbonara. She said it was one of the best dishes. While we were waiting for our food, several other tables were immediately filled up with other customers, families and friends alike. It was interesting that those tables were served pizza... I'll just leave it at that. The carbonara Was anything less than delicious. We both found the pasta to be barely cooked. Not al dente, but barely cooked. The seasoning was mediocre, and there was very little pork, which is supposed to be the highlight of this dish, in this dish. Diners tip: if you are not a local, keep in mind that your version of Customer Service may or may not fit what Customer Service is in Rome. Despite being hungry, I had a hard time, finishing the food, let alone actually eating it. The waitress only came over at the end to drop off the check, and when she noticed that I had barely eaten anything, first gave me a strange look, and then asked about it. It was definitely one of those situations where saying something was wrong would've been met with unwanted attention. This is in a place to add to your must try list... There are plenty of other places, even in and around this area that more than likely would be a better choice.

    Bufala pizza with red sauce and lasagna was excellent. Seating was fast and good serviceread more
