接客、味共に本当にオススメです！I really loved the friendly, welcoming service of this restaurant.🤘 The carbonara, amatriciana were amazing and it was enough for me to make me visit again in the next day. I ordered cacio e pepe and bolognese in the second day, and it was just pure gold. 😇
Thanks you for making this restaurant. Bellissimoooooo!!!🥳

P.S. the homemade tiramisu was the best tiramisu I’ve had in Rome. 😋

Affordable and high quality homemade pasta next to a huge tourist attraction (Vatican City), like what?!!! So good and the owner is delightful! The Amatriciana and bolognese were amazing!! The pork cheek in the amatriciana sauce was definitely a highlight of my trip to Italy! Thank you for doing what you do and I’ll be recommending this place to all of my friends!

I really love the concept of this restaurant. Simple ordering process, not stress, and a well priced, satisfying meal. Choose long pasta or short pasta, choose a style, and then soon you'll be eating incredible, fresh pasta. During this time, you might see the owner preparing more fresh cut pasta behind the counter.

There's an additional "specials of the day" menu as well for more complex flavors. The food is authentic and it is very tourist friendly. The owner and her mom are wonderful, exuding a friendly, welcoming energy.

I fell in love with the Amatriciana (paired with long pasta) but everyone I saw ordered something different and everyone was happy with their food.
