When I first got to this restaurant our waiter Samuel was quick to ask us what we wanted to eat. The food was very very good. Best food I have had in Italy so far. Thank you for the experience and thank you SAMUEL!

Claudio was a spectacular waiter. He was fast, attentive, made good recommendations, and spoke excellent English. The food was superb! Very tasty, good portions, and relatively inexpensive. The restaurant has a good vibe too. All employees are friendly. There is heated outside seating and lots of indoor seating. If you're in the area of the Coliseum, this is a must restaurant to eat in. Highly recommend!

Pasqualino al Colosseo is a truly special place with an authentic Italian atmosphere. From the moment you step inside, you can feel the tradition and passion for cuisine dating back to 1956. The dishes are fresh, full of flavor, and prepared with high-quality ingredients – I was especially impressed by the pasta and the pizza diavola. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the service is very professional.

A special mention goes to the very kind waiter Agha who is learning to speak Polish and happily tries to communicate with guests from Poland. It’s a wonderful and thoughtful gesture that makes you feel truly welcome. Definitely a place worth recommending!

Came here because of good reviews on spaghetti alla vongole and since we visited the Colosso. Got margherita pizza and rigatoni carbonara and they were pretty good. Alla vongole was decent and not too oily but it lacks umami flavor from clam juice. This is a real tourist place. We got a real Italian waiter with glasses. He speaks English very well and is probably the nicest and friendliest person in the restaurant. I'd recommend getting carbonara or cacio pepper when in Rome. Go to Fiumicino for seafood pasta.

We got to try Bellone wine which is an ancient roman grape from Lazio (this region) and it's super smooth with nice balance. It became my favorite wine in Italy this trip.
