The food was okay , there wasn't a long wait the main waiter or owner was helpful, enough, but made a face when some of our group did not take alcohol, just mineral water, we ordered 1st and 2nd plates as well starter, but only finished starters when all the other food was brought out together 1st and 2nd plates which was a bit much , I had a dessert cheese cake which was poor to say the least and the group had coffee which was passable, before you asked he put the cheque on the table and there is a service charge , got the feeling give me the money and leave now different man to when we went in ,paid and gave a tip obviously wasn't enough just took the money and no so much of a thank you , wouldn't be in a hurry back

The food really was delicious, the prices alright, but the customer service was TERRIBLE! They give free limoncellos and cookies at the end (even if you don’t want them, so kinda wasteful), but they were mixing up orders, not only ours, everything was all over the place, it’s like the servers were new but i think they weren’t. They forgot my boyfriend’s beer and placed lasagna on our table and on someone else’s table, but we and the other table didn’t order it. There was also something on another lady’s drink (like a feather or something, she complained and i think they compensated them but that was also unfortunate. They wanted us to change tables so they could sit a bigger group of people while we were eating, saying that they will give us limoncellos on the house (but they gave it to everyone so???) Then we asked 5 different people for the bill until it finally came after a long wait. We didn’t leave any tip because we weren’t satisfied and the waiter looked devastated like we were unreasonable and rude. So overall, the taste is good but the atmosphere terrible, so i wouldn’t recommend it. There are much better restaurants in Rome so i don’t understand the high rating, considering the disorganisation. The overall rating is mainly for the service, since it made the experience unpleasant. We ordered: Pizza caprichosa, pasta amatriciana, medium beer, hugo spritz, bruschetta and fried mixed vegetables and the bill was 43€

Open late which is good!
Cacio e Pepe pasta was nice and al dente. Bruschetta needed some more flavour and the pizza really wasn’t great.
It’s definitely not an authentic italian restaurant and more of a tourist trap. But if you’re hungry and it’s late then it’s convenient.

An excellent Italian restaurant located very close to the Vatican. The place was extremely busy and packed with diners.

Even though the restaurant was crowded, the staff were still warm and welcoming. They quickly arranged a table for us, and the food arrived surprisingly fast.

The pizza had a thin and crispy crust, which was absolutely delicious. The seafood pasta was generous in portion, full of seafood, and very flavorful. All the dishes were quite large in size.

At the end of the meal, they even offered complimentary liqueur and small cookies, which made the dining experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommended!

I came to this establishment with with my cousins because of a friends recommendation and what an AMAZING experience. I don’t normally do reviews but this place is 1000% worth it. Everything we ordered was cooked to perfection, was perfectly seasoned and delicious. We enjoyed some drinks as well and everything was brought out in a timely manner. The entire staff without exception is so kind and so welcoming and they made sure we were taken care of. Everyone feels like family at the restaurant and that’s a vibe you cannot replicate. I will be back tomorrow for more!
