    Tiramisu
    Anna W.

    We were pleasantly surprised to find this casual eatery near our hotel. The food was delicious and authentic. The service was warm and welcoming. I highly recommend this restaurant! Thank you to Mauricio and his wonderful staff.

    the 20 euro steak
    Chuck Z.

    The food is way overpriced. i ordered the steak, which cost 20 euro. i had the same size in Firenze I'Brindellone, it costed me 10 euro ONLY, and it tastes better! The bill comes at 27.5 euro, I paid 30 and he asked 2.5 as TIPS. when did we start giving tips in Italy? It doesn't feel right. If i want to tip I will say : keep the change. But you should never ask for it. This is not AMERICA! the only good thing is the potatos, it's nice. buy 30 euro I can do better.

    Highly recommended!!

    Stopped in here (first stop in Rome). The experience was incredible. Delicious pizza, good service, and great wine!

    The cold pizza
    Karen C.

    It is hard to find a sit down place in Rome before 12 and this one was open. It looked decent but when we sat down and looked at the menu everything on there had an asterisk indicating that it may be frozen. After seeing that we got a little worried about how the food would be. We opted to share a pizza instead which was in the display case. The pizza was served cold which the server pointed out to us when we picked it. It was actually really good. So despite our worry the food (at least the one item we got) was great. In order to use credit card you have to spend 12€.

    Found this gem looking in the neighborhood. It's a quaint spot filled with lots of wine of course. We were really craving a board of meat and cheese, and we were not disappointed at all! Got aperol spritzes, a beautiful meat and cheese board, and a lasagna to split. The meat and cheese board was absolutely amazing! Our waitress explained each one to us although I didn't exactly follow I wanted to try it all anyway lol. The lasagna wasn't the best I've ever had, but it was good. The meat sauce was a little plain, but the pasta was cooked well. The spritzes were good as well! I liked this spot, the service was friendly and everything was clean. Prices were reasonable too. A good casual spot to stop by if you're in the neighborhood!

    Really gross frozen microwaved lasagna
    Lorrie M.

    Okay everything they serve here is frozen as in they just reheat it. Don't be fooled. This place is atrocious and I would never recommend you to dine here. Look at this grossness! Don't get any food here drinks are probably okay. We paid the lunch special but it was definitely overpriced for microwave food.

    Wow!! This place does NOT Disappoint,, we had an AMAZING Time here, on our last day and night in Roma, such a pleasant experience that really truly made our Italian vacation end on a beautiful note. Initially, we were just walking by, it wasn't quite time to eat yet, it was late morning, early lunch time, and we were headed to the Pantheon. The kind and bubbly host was out front, trying to entice us to come in. But we told her, No, maybe later... Honestly, at first glance, when walking by, I thought it looked like a great place to eat, and they had several specials advertised out front, and I figured, oh, at least we know where we can come for lunch/or dinner. But as I said, we were passing by...eventually, later, thankfully, we strolled by again, and our gracious bubbly super hospitable host was more than happy to see us again and welcome us in to eat. And o boy did we eat, and eat and eat! and drink and.... We had an absolutely fantastic memorable time, thanks to our benevolent host who turns out to be the owner/daughter and her dad was there as well the owner/father : ) they treated us like family , a great father- daughter team ! They are running an excellent business of seven years going strong ...really delicious food and drink and a wonderful time was had here, and for that we are forever thankful

    Spicy salami pizza and pesto gnocchi
    Ana H.

    We had spicy salami pizza and pesto gnocchi lunch special and it was amazing. The ratio of pesto sauce to gnocchi was fantastic and the pizza was large enough for two people to share. The waitress was super friendly and came to check on us multiple times! Meal comes with free wifi too!

    The food is so-so. The pasta in particular is pretty bad, but the ambience is good. The sparkling water is pretty bubbly so that's a plus.

    Review # 1200 After…read moresome shopping on the Via cola Di Riemzo, we were ready for lunch. This spot was a Yelp find. We arrived just before they opened at 12:30. We asked for a table outside and the kind lady asked us if we had a reservation (oh oh). We didn't. No problem as we took our pick of one of the tables. Two levels inside with a small Bar in the back. Before we knew it, outside seating was full and inside also filled up-a good sign. We ordered a liter (ended up being too much but when in Rome...) of their house Red and enjoyed it. For starters, we ordered the Fried Artichokes (thick breading and will order the Roman style with garlic/vinegar next time), fried Zucchini and Suppli-Cacio Pepe. The Suppli was delicious and was enjoyed the most. For main, it was Pasta Carbonara (Guanciale )-Proper carbonara and the streak of not having a bad version of this dish in Rome continues. The sliced Beef with mushrooms was also delicious -super tender and thin pieces of beef (medium rare as requested). We asked if the Tiramisu was house-made. Our server answered, "yes, and I am the one who makes it." How could we not order after that?! One of the best Tiramisus we've had. Perfect balance of coffee dipped lady fingers with cream-delicious! Our Server was kind, attentive and full of hustle -she was covering a lot of ground. Don't miss this Gem if you are in the Prati district.

    Yes, it's worth the wait if you go there early. We stood in line at 12:30 on a weekday, as in,…read morelunchtime. We were 2nd in line and waited about 30 minutes. I would wait longer. I had possibly the most amazing chick food pasta a girl could imagine. Girls know what girl food is. The pasta in Italy is just better -obviously. But then put all sorts of girl flavors on it like Lemon and Orange, just lightly enough, zest with a small hint of cheese-..... omgosh. Yes, yes, and yes. Need my hubs to replicate at home. He is going to be busy trying to perfect this. Tagliatelle with orange and lemon parmesan. This was it. It was the best. Everything else we ordered was amazing as well. Wait outside. They don't have a sign telling you to wait, no server telling you to wait. You wait out there, wondering if you're in the right place, but then people stand behind you and you're like - oh! I'm here. This is the place. There are possibly 4 tables inside. It's small. I read about them being rude- we did not have that problem. In fact, they made a mistake and we kindly let them know we ordered something else- they corrected it and were nice about it.

So happy we did as this place definitely delivers. There is seriously like 8 tables in the dining room so expect a wait in line but trust me, it's worth it. We waited outside for about 25 minutes. They do take your order while in line so the wait for food (once you do get a table) is abbreviated. Out of the world pastas and the pistachio tiramisu is seriously out of this world. Inexpensive table wine rounds out a great meal. This is the type of place I love to go to. It's quaint, zero pretense and delivers on its food. A great find!

Our kind waiter bright over water, bread and breadsticks. No olive oil, no butter just dry. For our lunch I decided on the cacio e Pepe and Lisa opted for the ragú. Both were delicious.

It's a licorice like liqueur enjoyed as a digestif. Definitely an acquired taste that reminded me of Aguardiente.

We were both satisfied with our selections. Our meals started with bread service, both fresh bread and packaged breadsticks. We didn't receive any olive oil which might be the norm in Italy. For dessert, we opted for a slice of their featured lemon torta. It was enjoyable and we paired it with espresso. Finally, our server offered us a popular digestivi - Amaro. It reminded me of Jägermeister and I wasn't a fan. But I appreciated the hospitality and kindness of his gesture. In summary, we left content and with full bellies. Our server did a great job and the manager or owner acknowledged us and seemed to appreciate our business. All in all, this lunch was a positive experience.
