Unassuming entrance
Nigel T.

This place was the best place I ate at in Rome! A hidden gem where the food is excellent, the service polite and quick, yet still unrushed. This is close to the Vatican but not touristy. In fact, no one will jab their menu at you or call you, "my friend". In fact, no on street "marketing" at all. You ring the buzzer and they'll greet you and seat you if there's a spot. Not more than 20 seats. Wonderful find - thanks Yelp!

raspberry and pistachio tart i think

This was my favorite place that I ate at in Rome! You could definitely miss the restaurant, because it is just a door. You need to ring the doorbell to let them know you're there, and then you wait outside on the street. It's pretty small inside, with only about 20 seats, so do be prepared to wait or come when they open. I waited for about 30-45 minutes but it's absolutely worth it! The food was to die for! It's a family owned restaurant and the mom is the chef. I got their special, which was some type of pasta with asparagus and pork cheek! If I was able to, I would've eaten another plate. Their raspberry tart was also great and we even got a cheesecake to go! I recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants good food and a homey vibe in Rome!

Walked in for lunch on Saturday and everything we had was delicious! The waiter said everything is delicious because his mom makes it :') My favorite was the carbonara!

Service was good. Menu had very good options and food was amazing. Place was small but cozy. Authentic.

I'm so in love with this place. It is very small and intimate but I loved it! I ate everything off my plate every course. The best part of my dinner experience was the panna cotta. Never in my life have i ever had something that amazing. I wanted to order another just to take away with me! Lovely restaurant.

Great, no frills Italian. Cozy atmosphere with even better prices. Would definitely come back here again.

First meal in Rome, and it didn't disappoint. We had the lasagna, meatball rigatoni, chicken, and spaghetti with olive oil / garlic. Surprisingly, the chicken was the best thing (we r from NYC AND London)

Nice classic Italian lunch after visiting Vatican. We ordered two pastas. The food is tasty and the service is great.

Interior. Super cute!

As everyone said, food is great, setting is intimate, wait is worth it. Carbonara and side cannellini beans were awesome.

This place was best food that we had in Rome! Even though it's an intimate place my teens did not feel out of place.

The food was fast, delicious, and reasonably priced. Good option after the Vatican. Very patient with our American-ism.

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
