    BUG!!,!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, EWWWWWWWWWWWW the waiter Habib was nice  Habib is on my wall. I will return him. Soon.
    Margaret W.

    Bugs in food. None the less, the service was amazing and the constant company I felt when I walked in really made me happy. The atmosphere of your restaurant wasn't too religious, wasn't too much of one color, it's very humble and nice. I would go again but the bug in the food was my cherry on top. I used to go here a lot but after this experience I will not anymore. I'm not saying you've lost a valuable customer, but it's safe to say I'm not coming here no more.

    Pasta with red sauce, mozzarella, fresh basil, and basil sauce(?)

    We found this restaurant after a quick search and it's in great viewing distance of the colosseum so we thought why not - and we're definitely glad we decided to stop inside! As we stepped inside we were pointed towards a table to sit at within a booth and overheard a conversation between servers about their pizzas being back in stock so my group figured we could share a couple of pizzas and courses between the four of us. We got 2 pizzas with prosciutto, Parmesan, and basil, as well as a pasta dish with tomato sauce mozzarella, and basil, and grilled fish. Service was prompt and the food came out quickly, although we were a bit surprised for being charged for water (another thing that's normal in the states but not as much in Europe). I really enjoyed the pasta dish with its fresh basil and flavorful red sauce - I felt like the ingredients were really brought out in this dish, and the green sauce that was drizzled on top really brought the dish together (unfortunately I'm not sure what it was...) dish. Unfortunately the fish was pretty overcooked and under seasoned for our taste, but the star of the show overall were definitely the pizzas! The bread was a bit thinner than what we're used to back in the states, and the cheese and sauce were spread out more thinly as well. That mixed with the prosciutto, Parmesan slices, and basil on top left me craving more after we had finished eating.

    Our family just had dinner there. They charged service fee. One of the dishes was seafoods with ink noodle. It came with only 2 small shrimps and a few pieces of squids. We thought it's normal. But when we left, the same dish our next table ordered came with a lot of seafoods, at least 4 big shrimps and a lot of squids. Then we looked at the pictures online, we found pictures all had more seafoods. Maybe because we were the only Asian family tonight?

    Views. Pretty much the highlight here but I will call out the excellent service too. Food was "ok" but not sure if the locals would agree. There is much better food elsewhere that's for sure. But the others don't come with the view. Not everyday you get to eat and drink comfortably in front of a wonder of the world.

    Our server Anthony made our experience a great one! Such great vibe! My favorite thing to order on the menu was the prosciutto di parma very delicious!

    Wine not sit right by the Colosseum We went to this restaurant for dinner last night and of course we got pasta! We were amazed at how fresh the pasta tastes in Italy and the wine of course we had a romantic dinner sitting right next to the Colosseum it was beautiful and romantic and we loved every minute of it while we were sitting there next to the most breath taking views we had for dinner! And the service was great and accommodating it was very crowded and they placed us outside and it was perfect!

    Food looked appetizing but was pretty terrible. They took about 45 minutes to bring undercooked pasta. The service was also pretty terrible they don't check in on customers and took forever to take our order after being seated. This place is overrated in my opinion. The only thing I enjoyed was the music selection, that was good.

    clams and mussels
    Janice P.

    DO NOT COME UNLESS YOU WANT COLD AND UNSEASONED FOOD!! We came here because we had seen the reviews were good. I am literally writing this inside the restaurant. I ordered the clams and mussels as an appetizer and they were good. However, once our meals came, they were cold. I got the steak with potatoes. It had zero flavor. I had to add salt and pepper from the table to add flavor. My other two friends for pasta and it had no flavor as well. Please save your time and money and go elsewhere. It's over priced and not good. Spend your money where the food is worth it

    Tiramisu is really yummy. They do it with no alcohol!!!
    Izzat A.

    It is a nice place next to Colosseum with yummy foods! Servicing personal was from Kazakhstan, very polite and smart guys! They guided over the menu with the highest hospitality feeling my desires! I do recommend this restaurant!

    Burger
    Peter T.

    Everyone advises to steer clear of restaurants immediately outside of tourist attractions (they overcharge! they take advantage) but this eatery just outside the Colosseum seemed like just the perfect place for a little lunch after learning all about gladiators, lions, and such. I went with the burger described as CHIANINA BURGER 200gr, TOMATOES, LETTUCE WITH HOMEMADE ARTISAN BREAD, Chianina being a particular breed of Italian steer, formerly used as a work animal, but now raised primarily for beef. It was accompanied by lightly fried potatoes, reminiscent of the souffle potatoes one finds in New Orleans, just as light, but not as puffy. They were delicious as was the burger. I have found burgers in Italy to be a "denser" grind than in the US, which makes for a far more satisfying "chew." 200 grams is just over 7 ounces, a weighty patty.

    Carbonara

    Blan carbonara. Not attentive staff at all! I did go into it with high expectations because of the reviews, but still it was mediocre at best. It looks nice though

    Ravioli, Pizza, Tiramisu, superb!!! View is impeccable.

    In the past, I knew of Gelateria Navona, just a few doors up from the actual piazza, and that was…read moremy go-to place for gelato in Rome. Expecting it to be there one year, I walked over to Piazza Navona and Gelateria Navona had evidently closed. I would then get gelato here and there. I then learned that Giolitti is a long standing gelateria and it's also in the historic center. I filed the name away in my head. Then, one day, I happened to walk right in front of it without even looking for it, so I went in. Giolitti is popular and it can be crowded. I'm going to say that I waited about 10 to 15 minutes. You pay at a counter first, deciding on what you want and how much of it, such as scoops and whether it will be in a cup or a cone. Once up at the counter, they don't rush you, which surprised me. I don't take that much time since I don't experiment much, but I still appreciate the courtesy. The price is roughly what everyone else in the historic center is charging. I always opt for the gelato it in a cup so you can "control" the dripping. The gelato - a mix of dark chocolate and two citrus flavors - was "molto buono." That said, just because it's so popular, I'm not going to downgrade Giolitti for it and complain about the crowds. You downgrade gourmet donut places in the U.S. where their fame has gone to their heads. There is also a spacious salon with nicer decor in which you can eat inside. At this point, Giolitti is really the only gelateria in Rome whose name I remember. I would gladly go back and I recommend it.

That means almost 50 years of driving thousands of people insane with pleasure from utterly amazing ice cream. That is a good way to spend 50 years. * * * Most Italian Gelato places are very consistent. If one flavor is good, they all are good. If one flavor is fake or artificial, they all are fake and artificial. That said - despite La Romana's full range, The establishment is known for one distinctive flavor that is very much their signature. Crema dal 1947. Crema dal 1947 is absolutely and utterly insane. It is an eggnog custard gelato subtly flavored with lemon zest. It is the most creamy dreamy lemon cloud dessert every made by any human being. Just to get an appropriate placement within the lemon family, I paired it with a plain lemon gelato. Rome has absolutely amazing lemons. Plain lemon gelato almost anywhere is die-and-go-to-heaven good. Putting eggnog custard creamy dream Crema dal 1947 With bracing in-your-face screaming lemon-lemon-lemon traditional gelato Was like pairing Margot Robbie as Barbie with Amy Winehouse singing her soul out. Both were absolutely perfect for what they are. I want to have that ice cream cone tonight, tomorrow, the day after that, the day after that and every other consecutive day for the next consecutive 50 years. When La Romana becomes 100 years old, I can think about changing flavors. But it is hard to argue with perfect perfection.

But I stopped in my tracks because I saw a line wrapped up 50+ people deep, all waiting just to get inside and order. Now it's day two in Rome and I still hadn't had any gelato, even though I've walked past what feels like a hundred shops. So what would a fat man from Alabama do? Turn right back around, of course--because nothing says "this is probably good" like a crowd stacked up like cordwood waiting for ice cream. I finally make it up to the counter and the young guy looks at me and says in English, "What do you want?" Well... I can't pronounce half of what I'm looking at, so I just show him a picture of his own menu I had snapped a minute earlier. He smiles, reads it out loud, and then asks, "What size?" At that point my brain is a mess, so I mumble "medium" and point at the cup sitting by the register. One problem down. Then I move into the next line--about a dozen people ahead of me--and when it's finally my turn again, I just point at my receipt like, "It's on there somewhere, I think." I can't read Italian, so I'm fully operating on faith at this point. The guy looks up and says, louder this time: "What flavor?" Flavor? That was not the question I was prepared for. So I point back at the picture again and say, "Whatever that is... I want that one." He scoops it up, loads it into the cup, and sends me on my way. Now comes the real test--taste it--but there are people everywhere, so I grab a quick photo first, because priorities. First bite? Hallelujah. That was the moment. That gelato hit and I just kept walking down the sidewalk like a man who somehow figured out how to survive ordering ice cream in Italy. Seriously, it was excellent. And if I get turned around again like today, I already know where I'm going back.
