After wrapping up an all morning Vatican tour, I knew I wanted to grab lunch in this area of town. Stumbled upon this restaurant, and it was the perfect place to decompress after thousands of steps and huge crowds in the summer heat. Based on previous reviews, I decided to get the carbonara - it has been my favorite meal in Italy so far. I will definitely visit again when back in Rome. Worth the 20-30 min walk following Vatican tour!

My Husband and I were in Rome a few days and ate here countless times, the food is amazing! I got something different every time and each time it was incredible. They do take away and dine in, the restaurant is small but cozy and the waiters and host are SO NICE and welcoming. 100/10

Update- we had to go back for another meal before we left. When I said it set the bar high for the rest of our trip, it was more true than expected! After dinner at two other places, we were all wanting to go back. It was just that good, the food, the atmosphere, the attention. It was all top notch, the traditional pasta dishes were absolutely the best of all we tried our entire trip. On our second visit we tried some of the second courses, which were very good, as well. The tiramisu was AMAZING and we tried it at several different places. I will be dreaming of the carbonara and tiramisu for ages!

Our first meal in Rome and it was amazing, set the bar high for the rest of our trip! There were 5 of us and every single dish was delicious. The staff and atmosphere was kind and welcoming, we truly enjoyed every moment of our time there.

Fantastic Fantastic Fantastic, that IS the best Italian restaurant in the city. Amazing staff, even better food! I would want to order everything off the menu. Very nice selection and very reasonable prices and realistic for what you get! Everything tasted fresh fresh and we were told everything is made in house which I truly believe. I will be coming back forsure many times throughout my stay in Italy! Staff treat you like family!
