    Salmone e Bufala Pinsa
    Austin B.

    tl;dr this pinsa-ria may not rank among must-try Roman eats, but the traditional Roman pies are reasonable for a light lunch around Trevi Fountain When it comes to Roman pizza, most people's minds jump to pizza al taglio. However, another, lesser-known Roman style is pinsa, a flatbread-like creation that dates back to Ancient Rome. Derived from the Latin word 'pinsere' (which translates as "to stretch or spread"), pinsas feature an ovoid crust made from a combination of soy, rice, and wheat flour; fermented for 72 hours; and baked at a low temperature. As a result, the crust possesses a uniquely crispy exterior and cloud-like interior. The modern reinterpretation of pinsa began early this century, and pinsa-centric spots have become increasingly popular across Rome. One such pinsa-ria is Pinsitaly, a cozy cucina just blocks away from the bustling Trevi Fountain. Cured meats, twinkle lights, and pine garland hang from the rafters. The single recessed shelf is decorated with an assortment of antiques and wine bottles. A mix of English and Italian pop echoes around the room. Each time the waiter pushes open the double doors of the kitchen, expect the aroma of freshly baked pinsa to fill the air. My family and I arrived for lunch to escape the Trevi crowd, and we found the side street that Pinsitaly calls home to be refreshingly relaxed. After perusing the menu, we decided upon 3 Mini pinsas: the Salmone e Bufala, the Peperoni e Salsicca, and the Funghi. The salmon pie was whimsically ambitious, and I enjoyed the pleasantly bold salinity. The pepper (not pepperoni) and sausage pie sported tasty sausage. Finally, the mushroom pinsa featured what appeared to be underwhelming, supermarket-variety 'shrooms. Across all of the pinsas, I was left feeling like I was eating flatbread with toppings heated up on a pre-baked crust. While said crust was light and slightly poofy, the completed pinsa never truly exceeded the sum of its parts. The Pinsitaly "Normal"-sized pie was as large as a carving board, so the Mini is a better bet for more variety across a party. The service was welcoming, and the prices were affordable. While Pinsitaly may not dazzle, you could certainly do far worse around the touristy Trevi.

    Bruschetta with mozzarella
    Brian K.

    AMAZING!! Small restaurant and took about 20 minutes to get seated, but worth it. Food was really amazing and couldn't have asked for anything better. The tomatoes were so fresh! The bruschetta was great, the pizza was great and the roasted pork sandwich was great. One of the best meals we had in Italy.

    Delicious food in a little cozy atmosphere! The no tomato pizza was my favorite, because it was flavorful with a perfectly crunchy crust. Get there 6:30/7 pm to not have a long wait. The service was very good, and a place I would definitely return to if we stayed a little longer.

    Carbonara
    Simon W.

    Not a tourist trap! Honestly Pinsitaly screamed tourist trap with the close proximity to the sites, the lunch specials board, and the endless barrage of clueless tourists milling about. Maybe it still is a trap, a pizza trap that is, because this ended up being one of my favorite pizzas on my trip to Rome. I asked for a staff recommendation from the server and was surprisingly given the carbonara as a favorite. So be it, when in Rome, Carbonara it is! When the wooden pizza tray arrived at the table, the visuals were impressive and the aroma intoxicating. Believe me it was oh-so-hard, to lead with my iPhone camera. One quick snap was all I could do before taking a bite. Initial thoughts? The are-you-kidding-me, this crust was rocking! Crunchy in an absolutely delicious way which should have been impossible with overloaded generous toppings on top. Dave Portnoy would be thrilled with this firm, no flop masterpiece. Not impressed yet? Well how about some Carbonara toppings screaming "I am rich" leaving your stomach screaming to stop stuffing yer face, it can't take anymore. Every bite of this masterpiece was a rich smokey heavenly bite. Even with the tourist scene, the staff was friendly and accommodating. Seating is a little cramped but you won't notice that being the case after one bite. If you go, get the carbonara and let me know if you can resist to urge to bite before a snap. Good luck!

    Not good at all unfortunately- had many other spots in Rome that were fantastic but not this one

    Overhyped. Plain pizza. Looks like a tourist trap. Servers seem frazzled, terrible cramped seating unable to relax. Taste is like frozen. Please do yourself a favor and try somewhere else in Rome

    Porchetta
    Clay F.

    Came here for the porchetta sandwich. Nothing else with it but fresh crunchy bread. Didn't need anything else. A pleasure to eat.

    Eggplant and spicy salame
    Itzel M.

    Wow this place exceeded my expectations. Had the best food and a very good waiter!! I highly recommend doing a sampler platter of pizza options. Pick the minis so you can try what sounds good. The ambiance is amazing! We got there at 7pm which was perfect timing. After 8pm there was a long line to get in. Definitely worth going

    Classic Margherita
    Jing D.

    Small restaurant near the Trevi Fountain....always with line so you know that this is a good restaurant. We were here for lunch and I am not a pizza person.....but their Margherita flat pizza is delicious, simple ingredients packed with flavors. My daughter ordered a spicy salame pizza, sooo good too. They offer a meal deal (pizza and a drink) or you can order ala carte. Service is good, friendly waiters and good for the budget. When in Rome..... try PINSITALY!

    Pizza was very good. Fast and friendly service. Highly recommended. The bruchetta was also good. Might need to wait in line bec the place is small

    So glad we found this little spot on our last night in Rome! We were looking for a great casual pizza place and this was perfect. Offers indoor and outdoor seating options and very friendly and attentive staff, it's welcoming to tourists and non Italian speakers alike. We sat outside, ordered drinks and started with the rice croquettes as recommended by the server. Lovely crunch on the exterior of the croquette and maybe the best cheese pull I've ever gotten. Served hot and in a cute little basket. The pizza had a very thin crust and had a great exterior crunch but was soft on the inside....perfect amount and flavor for the red sauce and I loved the combination of cheeses sprinkled on top. Really, really nice bite every time. The porchetta sandwich was served hot and melty on really nice homemade bread....like the pizza crust, it had the soft springy interior and nice bready crunch on the exterior. The layers of eggplant, nicely seasoned porchetta and cheese were heavenly. This was the most inexpensive meal we had during our entire trip but that was not reflected in the level of service or food. I loved every bite of food I had here and would happily return!!

    The pizza was exactly what I hoped we'd find for dinner near our hotel a couple of blocks from Trevi Fountain.

    Omg! Pizza fucking amazing! Honestly everything was…read moredelicious. Not a lot of seating but food and atmosphere are great. The staff is enthusiastic and engaging so would highly recommend stopping in. The signs are hilarious also. 5 stars!

    Passed this spot on the way back to the hotel and thought I need to try and returned to find a…read moresmaller almost "hole in the wall" space with an extensive variety of specialty pie options and some fun signs posted-ie "If you ask me for ketchup and mayonnaise I'll call the police!!." They have a small pizza and a bigger size which I would say is about 10 inches. The small size was sold out on my first visit and found out better to arrive earlier (before 6) for these. The Mini pies are good if you want to try a few varieties-so many so little time. Ordered the big Amatriciana (the unloved pasta dish of the big Roman four as a pizza) which was recommended-Pecorino, mozzarella with the Pork cheeks taking it over the top-one of their most popular and rightfully so! On the second visit , they had the small size pies-Friarielli & Salsiccia-Broccoli Rave and sausage-tasty, Fegato & Cipolla-pork liver sausage with onions and peppers made for a "not everyday" and delicious pie. Both visits service was excellent and engaged. This place screams independent and one of a kind but it turns out they are a regional chain with a handful of locations. Amazing pizza with so many options!
