We were sent here from hotel Degli Artistry for dinner. The restaurant is upscale with a Mixture of business and local patrons. The service was professional and efficient, not unfriendly but not friendly either. The dinner for our party of four were all well prepared and delicious. My spaghetti with clams was so tasty I would have loved to come back here again if we were not leaving for Florence. If you want to get away from the tourist traps at the Trevi fountain, this is less than 10 minutes walk from there on a quiet street. I also had fried zucchini flowers with sardine which was very interesting and unique taste. read more

Avoid this place. Easily one of the worst meals we had in Rome. The food was disappointing, poorly prepared, and nowhere near the standard you expect in a city with some of the best cuisine in the world. The service was even worse, with staff refusing to take responsibility for their own mistakes. I honestly don't understand why this restaurant is recommended by hotels--it certainly wasn't because of the quality. If you're visiting Rome, skip this place and go somewhere that truly represents Roman cuisine, like Roscioli or one of the many excellent local restaurants. This restaurant was a huge disappointment and not worth your time or money. read more

Worst dining experience I had in Rome. We came here expecting a memorable meal and instead had one problem after another. First, they brought me the wrong pasta. When I pointed it out, they brought a mushroom pasta instead of the cacio e pepe I had ordered. After realizing it was still wrong, the waiter simply said, "I'm sorry, madam, but the kitchen is closed. We can't do anything for you." They told us to keep the pasta and assured us it would be removed from the bill. We only tasted a spoonful, didn't like it, and asked them to take it back. To our surprise, they charged us for it anyway. The meat dish was just as disappointing. It was undercooked, extremely chewy, and almost impossible to enjoy. Instead of trying to resolve the situation, the manager came out and argued with us when we questioned being charged for a dish we never ordered and barely touched. Rome is filled with incredible restaurants, amazing food, and warm hospitality. Unfortunately, this place was the complete opposite. Poor food, poor service, poor management, and absolutely no accountability when they made multiple mistakes. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for the quality and hospitality that Rome is famous for. There are far better places to spend your money. The manager is a disgrace to the hospitality Rome is famous for. Instead of demonstrating the warmth, professionalism, and generosity that make Roman restaurants so special, he chose to argue with customers over the restaurant's own mistakes. His behavior reflected poorly on the establishment and completely overshadowed what should have been an enjoyable dining experience. read more

In all of our travels through Italy, this was our most disappointing dining experience. Our hotel concierge recommended it, but we told him after that it was a mistake. The food here was fine, but the service abysmal. It was clear that there's many locals who dine here and our server clearly favored them. Our salads were served with no dressing, even though we saw others prepared with it. The entrees were served within minutes of receiving the appetizers. We weren't even offered a dessert menu which was fine because by that time we just wanted to leave. Maybe our experience would have been better with another server, but we'll never know, we won't be back. read more

Amazing experience. Impeccable service. The food was delicious- we had a starter plate with fried artichokes, zucchini flowers, and zucchini sticks. For dinner we had cacio e Pepe and tomato basil. Both were delicious. The highlight of the meal for me was the lemon sorbetti. So fresh and flavorful. We sighted some celebrities (football players and actor) as this is a hot spot. It's a nicer spot so best to dress up a bit. read more

Burgers were what we wanted after 2 weeks in Italy. These burgers did not disappoint!! Highly recommend T&C Burger Lab!!!!

Absolutely the most disgusting restaurant I have ever been to. The staff is rude the food is overpriced and it is not edible. I can't believe the St Regis would recommend something this bad. We literally threw our money in the trash by coming here none of us ate the food. read more

I had high hopes. The food wasn't bad, it just didn't hit my expectations. Steak was good but not exceptional. My hubby loved it. The creme caramel taste just like flan. Truffle pasta was ok. read more

The absolute worst meal experience in two weeks in Italy, starting with the quality of food. Unremarkable and shockingly out of context with reviews. Meatballs and beans were not homemade and looked like they came out of a can. Sauce not homemade; meatballs were 1/2" thick and tasteless. Beans were just thrown on the plate with a bit of sauce. Artichoke hearts all was cold and tasteless. Another dish thrown on the plate; tasted from a can. Veal chops were thin and had some flavor, but unremarkable. Pasta Pepe was decent, as was the eggplant parm; but not top notch. Mellon and prosciutto presentation was strange. Two thin slices of Mellon on one plate; prosciutto just thrown on the other. Bread was day old. And to top it off, the server was unfriendly and unresponsive then got mad when we refused to enter a tip. Just a bad experience. There are so many Better options in Rome. read more

This restaurant is very charming. The decoration and ambience felt like we were sitting in an Italian grandma's dining room. We sat by a utensils and bread drawer. It was fascinating watch them grab bread and cut it fresh in front of you. The food was delicious and the service was good! read more

We were treated like royalty , would highly recommend for a pleasurable evening when in Rome .

Hole in the wall that our hotel recommended. It was a fun experience. The ossobuco was amazing! Spaghetti and tomato sauce with basil was also fantastic. Seems like reviews were mostly negative due to slow service. This is Italy, get used to it. They aren't in a rush to kick you out and turn the table. Just enjoy it. read more

Our family has been here before and loved the place. This is a classic "man, it's just not like I remembered". The atmosphere is.....dated. One can see it was nicely appointed about 30 years ago. The service was abysmal. 15 minutes before we received a menu. 40 minutes before we got a bottle of wine. Yes .... In Italy it's all about taking your time while you eat WHILE sipping on your wine.... on the other hand, the wine selection is incredible. We ordered a 2012 chateauneuf du pape. Incredible. Veal with potatoes was flavorless. Bolognese was edible. There are so many better options. Take one of them. read more

Great Food & Service, very laser focus service, anticipating your next request. Spot on great quality food, not the whim of some cooking caprice. read more

We were hoping for more in the way of interactive service like we had received the last two evenings at Rinaldi and Taverna Agape . The spaghetti my husband ordered was delicious, however my veal meatballs and potatoes (recommended by the waiter) was sub par and bland . Actually the best meatballs so far Emma pizza! Good atmosphere here, though, and we were flanked by two other American couples and had some lovely conversations. read more

OUTSTANDING!! I cannot recommend this restaurant enough!! The waitstaff was unbelievably attentive, engaging and charming!! Our concierge at the Hotel De La Ville said they serve the best steaks in town, I would like to correct her as this was one of the best steaks I have had EVER, ANYWHERE!! The pasta was otherworldly, Melt in your mouth goodness!! Hats off to Tony and Matteo, they made this evening amazing. We sat next to a local girl who was one of Matteo's friends and we learned just how friendly Italian people are, if she reads this I would like to extend a monumental THANK YOU (if you are ever in Colorado, we would like to extend an invitation to you!!) Thank you to every member of this fine dining establishment for making this an outstanding night in Roma!! We will most definitely be back and we will recommend your fabulous restaurant to anyone who will listen!! read more

Great neighborhood find in Rome. Amazing food and service. Enjoy an original non-tourist restaurant.

Nice menu. Family thought the mozzarella was the best they ever tasted. Very large wine menu which is a plus. Dined outside which was decently appointed. Big issue was the terrible service. Locals treated like royalty but others treated poorly. Shame. We booked it 1 month in advance. Wish we had picked a better place. read more

Centrally located, this hidden gem is upscale, slightly dated elegant, appointed restaurant of pristine white linens filled with Italian locals who are specifically there to enjoy fresh, Tuscan-style cuisine. Servings, by American standards, will appear on the smaller side, but all the dishes are traditionally prepared and wonderfully executed. The artichoke appetizer is to die for, and the pasta and fish were delicious. Everyone was warm and friendly. Do make a reservation in advance though as seating is limited. read more

We were recommended this restaurant by someone at our hotel. Food was decent, but menu was limited. We had our kids (14 & 12) with us but the menu was fairly limited. 3 out of the 4 of us ended up eating steak and the other had the cannelloni. All were good (not great) but not really the "Italian" experience we were looking for. Wine list is quite robust which was a huge plus. I was caught a bit off guard where our waiter told us gratuity wasn't included. Not a big deal, but also not so sure it was a truthful statement. Feel like I make have footed shaken down on this one because of the situation described above. This place is better suited for business dinners than a family traveling internationally looking for an authentic eating experience. read more

First time in Roma I had overcooked pasta, never mind it was Very salty . Is so buco was plain and salty as well. Service was ok but the owner kept chatting with one table without paying attention on other guests. Ampbiance is simple somehow a bit of old office canteen( read more

This restaurant was really close to the hotel we were staying at, and recommended by the hotel staff. It was definitely pretty and fancy, but in my opinion a bit overpriced. The portions were really small as well!! We got the Beef Carpaccio, Dorado fish (sea bream apparently in English :)), and a side of asparagus. My sister and I split pretty much everything :) I thought the dorado fish and asparagus were a bit bland, so beef carpaccio was my favorite dish. It was delicious!! Just wish the portion was a bit bigger ^^ Btw when we arrived, another woman was trying to get in to eat dinner by herself, and they told her a large wait time but allowed us in - so it does get busy in the evenings, and probably helps to come with at least two people! The servers were really nice and attentive. Besides us were mostly elderly Italians enjoying their meals, though we also overheard some other Americans. One group celebrated a man's birthday at this restaurant! We all sang happy birthday and it was really cute :) read more

Very good service! The entrees were adequate, but not spectacular. We shared osso bucco, sole and carbonara. Everyone enjoyed the sole and wished we had ordered it for the entire table. The tiramisu and Napoleon were among the best ever. read more

Simply one of the best dining experiences of my life! We came to Italy with the expectation that I would not order dinner from a menu but rather put faith in the judgment of the locals and this, our first evening out in Rome, did not disappoint. Our waiter was Matteo, a 29 year old young man who was perhaps more enthusiastic about my placing my confidence in him than I was. He started me off with an amazing appetizer of house-made mozzarella and local prosciutto. The combination of the mild and creamy cheese paired with the salty ham was simply out of this world. Matteo also brought some local Parmesan cheese to try with the ham and it was equally delicious. We weren't done with appetizers yet. Next came a specialty of the house - artichokes. I love these mysterious vegetables but I have never had them this way. They were trimmed of the tougher outer leaves and the choke, then boiled for almost 2 hours in a mixture of police oil, white wine and parsley. Simple and amazing. Time for the entree. Mixed seafood "soup". It was more of a combination of clams, calamari, prawns, crawfish and fish in a light tomato broth which was just enough to cover the bottom of the bowl. Fresh and amazing. Matteo had expected the dinner to end here but I was still eager for more. We finished with a pasta course. One word - truffles! House-made pasta that was to die for. The meal was paired with a 2014 Brunello wine. What a way to start our journey through Italy! read more

It was a rainy night and we arrived without an appointment and we weren't dressed nicely as we'd been out all afternoon touring the city. Another restaurant recommended them because they did not have space for us. When we entered their establishment they asked us if we had an appointment when I answered "No", the waiter thought for a moment and they said to follow him. As we walked to our table I saw plenty of "reserved" signs on most of the tables and only a few patrons. I was concerned that they might seat us near the kitchen exit, but the table seemed adequately far enough away from that door. We took our soggy windbreakers off and sat down. The waiter dropped off some menus and brought us a bottle of still water. A few minutes later he came by and dropped from some bread and then asked if I wanted some wine. I ordered just a glass of the house red as I'm not a wine affectionado and my wife does not drink. He returned a few minutes later and took our order. Our appetizer arrived and we started to enjoy that when the waiter then brought us some oil for our bread but no vinegar, though I saw it on the counter across from our table. The restaurant began filling up shortly after 8pm and what I noticed was as the waiter picked up the silverware from the door across the table he was slamming the drawer shut and the sound of this and the silverware rattling interrupted our conversation. One time he came and left the drawer open so I slowly closed it so I didn't have to listen to him slam it again. We'll that seemed to annoy him because he came back and started throwing the clean silverware into the drawer. I was now beginning to feel more like an inconvenience than a paying customer trying have a nice dinner out with my wife. It was probably another 35-40 minutes before our meals were brought to the table. My wife had ordered something that I equated to buttered noodles and I had ordered the stuffed shells. Her response was although the appetizer was good tasting her noodles had too much salt and I thought my meal was good tasting though the portion size was a little smaller than I was expecting. The food was ok, but I was really disappointed with the way we were treated. Our bill was 60 Euro, but was probably only worth about 30 euro (in my book). I gave him a 10 euro tip because in the US a 15% tip is standard, and I didn't have any smaller change but I wished I'd had 1 euro to give him as a tip and a message. If I could do this experience over I would have asked for a different table or just walked out in the middle, but it was raining, we were hungry and I didn't want to embarrass my wife. I hope the restaurant reads this post and decides to take some action. read more

Sometimes when you walk into a restaurant and ask the server to surprise you with a main course selection, you get the chef's favorite and most delicious dish. Sometimes, you get the server's safe bet. Since I was looking to have something more exotic than what I can get at home, I was pretty sad when the server said that he was going to bring me a steak. Don't get me wrong, I love a good steak. But I wanted something different. I wanted the brain. Now, with the impending zombie apocalypse, I know what you're thinking. No need to start watching the History channel for defense strategies. (really, they have shows about this...serious ones, you should check them out) I just wanted to try something that I'd never had before. I called our server over and asked him to change my order. He did a double take and said "You want calf brain?" I assured him that I did and he went on his way. I don't know if people in general don't order the brain or just all-American looking girls like myself, but I sure am glad I ordered that brain. It didn't take me long to get past the texture because the garlicy buttery goodness was amazing. Kind of tasted like sweetbreads and I love sweetbreads. I shouldn't dwell on the brain because the antipasti and mushroom pasta were delicious as well. I especially enjoyed the presentation of the caprese salad. A little individual tomato for everyone. The other stand out of the night was the dessert. I still don't know what that cake was but our server described it as very typical Italian cake. You should not miss this cake. I'm still thinking about it. Now if I could just find the name... Expect a leisurely dining experience with lots of wine and you won't be disappointed. read more

First time in Rome (for a conference), polled several friends for restaurant recommendations. Tullio was the best of the bunch, a cut above the rest. And it clearly catered to both Rome locals as well as the savvy tourist. I agree with some of the reviews that this place is "moderately priced". That's if you dine American-style, ordering a pasta dish and maybe an appetizer. The Italian way you'll be eating pasta AND a main course. I ordered the Dover sole, a pasta in cream sauce, dessert, and a couple glasses of wine and now two people are up above 100 euros. But the food in this place was clearly a cut above the rest. Obviously very fresh and thoughtfully prepared. The waiters were a little overbearing, but I would suggest this is part of the "act". They had good recommendations that were based on their experience with the chef that day. You can't go wrong with a meal here. read more

We just returned from Rome and felt compelled to tell you what a great experience we had here. A fellow foodie recommend we try this restaurant and we were not disappointed; in fact we went twice. From the amazing pasta dishes and fish dishes to the incredible Buffalo mozzarella to our amazing server Alberto who treated us great even though we spoke no Italian at all. This restaurant is no frills, not stuffy, it's loud because there are lots of families there but it won't disappoint if you're looking for a great Italian meal. read more

Tullio - Tagliolini with white truffles (half portion) - Wine Bars Near Me - Rome, RM

Our concierge highly recommended Tullio so our party of six went there for dinner. Unfortunately wa had a very pushy waiter. The seafood appetizer platter was fine and everyone had a good meal, but our waiter was in a hurry and quite rude. He kept upselling us for more expensive wines and multiple desserts even after we refused. Leaving the restaurant was an awkward experience. I think he was friends with some cabbies and wanted us in one of their cars. This meal was much more expensive than our other culinary outings in Rome. There is better and cheaper elsewhere, and with friendlier service. read more

We had dinner there a couple of days ago. It's a nice place but watch out. There are two dining areas - one very nice and one average at best. Despite lots of room they sent us to the bad area and tried to seat us next to the waiter station - which incredibly noisy. We had to ask for a decent table... The waiter was completely useless in terms of recommending wine which is very rare in Rome in my experience. Normally people take pride in helping you find a good suitable wine. Overall the service was awful with long delays and almost rude comments. Bill didn't come because the staff was chatting noisily for 15 minutes. The food was hit and miss. Some dishes great, some questionable in terms of freshness and preparation. Stock with the pasta... Probably a great experience of you get a table in the nice area, but a complete rip off in the tourist section. It's easy to have a great meal in Rome, but at Tullio you have to fight for it. On top of it it's overpriced for both ambiance and food. read more

We had the most amazing meal at Tullio. Professional service and atmosphere was very classy. It came highly recommended by many people we had asked, "Whats a good restaurant that also has a good variety of seafood". Tullio has it all. We had the privilege of the owner stopping by our table to see how everything was. Got to love that! We would never hesitate if we are in Rome again to come back to Tullio. read more

Excellent! Get the fresh mozzarella, Italian artichokes and prosciutto for appetizer. The house red is excellent. For dinner we had the veal, tagliolini with black truffle and agnolotti ala bolognese. All amazing but the winner was the tagliolini. Service was great, attentive and fast. read more

Excellent restaurant, but I have to take off one star for the prices, 40 Euro for a plate of pasta with shrimp is excessive even in Rome. The service and quality of everything was very good. I would suggest that couples share appetizers and not order all at once to be overwhelmed with too much food. Dinner for two with a bottle of Chianti and tip $200US dollars. read more
