Waited in line for 10 minutes at around 11Am. Pizza was good! It was about 12 euros for all of the pizza

I don't think I've ever said this about any dish but the cacio e pepe here was so good I could cry. The pasta was perfectly al dente and the flavors were everything I dreamed of and more. Do not miss this dish. The ambiance is fun and casual. I can't wait to come back to try one of the red sauce pastas. The fried squash blossoms were heavily battered and skippable. Michael Tusk of the 3 Michelin starred Quince recommended this place and helped us get a last minute reservation. We really hit the jackpot!

November 11, 2024 3PM Highly anticipated restaurant. I only pre-booked here and Incantum before arriving in Rome. Kept seeing this restaurant pop up with local Italian chefs' recommendations. Feeling a bit tourist trappy but their food was oh-so-delightful. We started with the bread basket and a bottle of Chianti. Appetizers - Maialino del Chianti - slow cooked pulled pork with olives and pickled vegetables. It's a cold dish but the meat was tender and flavorful. Trippa della Tradizione Romana - Roman tripe stew. This was so tender and succulent, definitely a little tripe scenty for those who don't eat innards. Pastas - Tagliatella - tagliatelle tossed with hare ragu, dried porcini mushrooms and saffron. My first bunny dish ever. Amatriciana - traditional Roman dish but with gnocchi. We booked dining in the basement which worked out as the restroom was also in the basement/wine cellar. Highly recommend to give them a try. Great service as well!

I had made reservations here about a week or so before because supposedly the carbonara is the best in Italy. I thought it was decent, but not the best. What was amazing was the ravioli though, it had oxtail filling and was so good. The bread basket had a variety of breads and was amazing. The service was very good and there was a huge menu of different kinds of salmon and prosciutto, etc that you can get. We sat near the door so it did get cold when the door was open.

I mean... Wowsers. We had a reservation for 9:30pm and huddled up outside with other patrons who also had that time slot. Then sure enough they let us all in. It's seems like if you don't have a reservation, you pretty much aren't getting in. We sat near the deli side and can see the endless amounts of cheese and meats for sale. Lots of meats going through the aging process a.k.a. more flavor! Service was a bit slow, but no complaints as we were served with our complementary bread which included a variety of breads like an olive one and a walnut bread . The menu is pretty large and the options seem endless. They also have a couple of seasonal items which sounded amazing. However, this time we chose to go with a couple of staple items. For the appetizer we went with the FIOCCHETTO, MELONE E PRIMOSALE - the melon was sweet and juicy the crispy aged ham had a great amount of flavor and salt, and the cheese was fresh and creamy. Best combo of flavors! For our mains we chose the CACIO E PEPE - cheesy and black pepper heavy RAVIOLO DI CODA E PECORINO - the foie gras sauce with fig compote is one of kind. So delicious! Both MAYBE JUST A TAD TOO, AL DENTE FOR MY TASTE, BUT THOSE SAUCES AND FLAVORS WERE RICH AND LICK THE BOWL CLEAN! We left with a happy heart and very full bellies. I hear they have a location in New York now? Might be worth the visit!

Worthy of 5 stars! Thoroughly enjoyed the whole evening. Sitting outside people watching. Wine selection was terrific. Bread and cheeses were a delight. Truffles to die for. Pasta was, of course, amazing. Our server was so very helpful and very busy, too! Grazi Roscioli! Allora andiamo...

Food was fantastic! Wine was wonderful! Service was amazing! We were unsure what to order and they were so helpful. Get reservations ahead of time!

Pizza was good, but not heated enough. Kind of felt like a thin, tasty flatbread, Was super overwhelmed by ordering and not much English instruction. Staff were friendly, but the crowds were really overwhelming. I also got the sausage and broccoli wrap, which I kind of regret it because it was only one size and it was too filling. I wish I had gotten more pizza slices instead. I really liked their potato sausage pizza the best! beware there is not much seating outside, and it felt a little bit unsanitary with all the bird poop on the tables.

Tremendous experience to dine at legendary Roscioli and I must say their carbonara was the best carbonara I have ever had! I strongly believe that it was their ingeredients that played a big role in. Took advantage of their summer truffle special menu and ordered "beef carpacio from Piemonte with summer truffle" Truffle was served as flakes rather than slices. I offered to pay more and asked them if they can serve slices of truffle instead. However communication did not go very well. I was impressed by the quality of beef though. It was very fresh damn tasty beef. Wait staff recommended Merlot to go with carbonara which I thought it was an interesting pair. It worked out somehow well with guanciale in my carbonara. I also need to point out that they use "Paolo Parisi" egg for carbonara. If you are not familiar, look it up. Their own craft beer was lovely as well.

This might be the best vibe here in Rome. Many private tours came through and the line was out the door. It was authentic and genuine. The fresh meats, bread are to die for. Please stop here! If not, turn the corner and go to the cafe for sit down of the same food and coffee!

Roscioli had been in my periphery for a while - not because of this location in Roma, but rather the one they opened in NYC. While I am yet to make it to the location in the States, I thought it would be a great place to dine for our last full day in Roma. It proved easier said than done, though, as this is a popular restaurant and tables book quickly. I got lucky though, and was able to book a late afternoon reservation with only a couple days notice - so we planned for an early dinner and off we went. Roscioli technically has two locations within close proximity to each other - a quick-service deli, and sit-down restaurant a few doors away. Our table was for 2:30pm, so we arrived about 5 minutes before our reservation and found a crowd of people waiting outside. We soon learned that everyone had a table for the same time as us, and after a short wait they opened the door and started letting us in. The restaurant is separated into different sections - the front area houses the main deli showcase where a lot of the food they use is stored, there are a few tables arranged along the perimeter. There's also a small back area with more tables arranged, as well as the wine cellar with even more tables. We were seated downstairs in the wine cellar, which IMO is the best place to sit as it doesn't seem as cramped as upstairs (though it is a little cozy there as well). The menu is Italian food with Roman influences, and because it's a salumeria there's a number of meats and cheeses available as well. I gotta give a shoutout to the bread basket as it was the most impressive one we had in Italy - great variety of carbs, I was living my best life. We decided to start with two apps. We got the bis del nostro maritozzetto romano which was filled with pork and drizzled with pesto; we also got the crostino which was topped with sausage, a parmesan mayo, and herbs. Both were good, super fresh and the flavors complemented each other well. We also got some mozz which came with sun dried cherry tomatoes; this was excellent - it was DOP and I tasted every bit of it. Honestly some of the best mozz I've ever had and those cherry tomatoes really just took it to a whole other level - UGH so good. For my main I went with pasta - I decided on the tortellini which were served in a light cream sauce. This was delicious - the pasta was cooked al dente and even though it was cream sauce it didn't stuff me nor leave me plodding through Roma after we left; it was a premier plate of pasta. We decided to grab dessert, so I went with a cannoli. It was big and I could tell it was filled to order since the shell was nice and crispy - as good as any excellent cannoli I've had elsewhere. Service was great - everyone was very nice and food came out at a good pace. Overall, Roscioli was great - this was one of the best dining experiences I had in Italy. The food was excellent and I consider myself lucky I was able to snag a table here. A hot tip - be sure to read the reservation instructions carefully as it does require action on the diner's part even after you book a table on their website (specifically for dinner). It's worth it though - I would have no qualms recommending this place to anyone visiting Roma.

Popular spot. There's a bar and store inside this small restaurant. When we got there we saw a queue of people with reservations like us and everyone piled in within the first few minutes. The menu is vast and overwhelming. Service was ok. It seemed like our server was in a big rush. We joked that you got 5 seconds of his time and then he had to go. They have this wonderful bread but I think that was the best item on the menu and we ordered a lot of food. We had oysters, gazpacho with raw fish, anchovies, lamb (hard to eat/cut), pasta dishes, ravioli, meatballs, salad ... everyone was somewhat dissatisfied. It was a very expensive meal where everyone was left pretty unhappy.

This is my favorite Italian Restaurant in Rome! You need to make reservations early for this place. If you call first thing in the morning you can see if anyone canceled. We got reservations in the Wine Cellar, this is the place you want to dine. When you walk in to the restaurant notice the food counter to your left and the wine to your right, this is an authentic Italian Restaurant. As you walk down the steps in to the cellar it takes you back in time. Then you end up surrounded by hundreds of wine bottles! We stared of with some wine with some cheese and bread. We had Raviolo Di Coda E Pecorino, full of flavor, it was amazing! And the Gnocchi All' Amatriciana, it was the best I have ever had! Daniel our server was amazing! He even brought us some Limoncello after the meal! Then they give you cookies and chocolate sauce for dessert. We also got the tiramisu which was fabulous! This place has it all, I highly recommend this place! This is a must place to try! Cheers!
