The service is very courteous and friendly. The staff are very nice and do their job well. The fish is top-notch: fresh, tasty, and cooked to perfection! We'll definitely be back next time we're in Rome.

I've been wanting to try Ristofish in Colli Aniene for a long time, and the experience was extremely positive. The atmosphere is simple but very clean and well-maintained. The background music was at a volume that was easy to hear without disturbing the conversation, and the tables are positioned outdoors but away from the street, ensuring a comfortable acoustic environment. Another positive note is the service (very young), which was attentive, kind, helpful, and fast. As for the fish... because you eat fish here... it's fresh, really fresh, excellent in appearance and flavor, and I really enjoyed the dishes: my tonnarelli allo scoglio dish was delicious. I'll be back again and recommend trying Ristofish for all the reasons I've listed, as well as for the excellent price-quality ratio.

I was hoping for better from the reviews, but I was very disappointed, and it's overpriced considering it's located inside a market. The portions are small, so much so that when I got home I had to eat to fill up, and the flavors are bland. We ordered two cod fillets (one arrived when the bill was for two), which were very small and tough, and an octopus and potatoes dish (good). Then a scampi cream risotto...a little too al dente, grilled calamari (about two pieces), and grilled vegetables (plenty, but not tasty). Too bad, I expected better.

The place you don't expect. Intrigued by the little information (and beautiful photos) I found online, I decided to try this "Ristofish," which I discovered completely by chance. Located in a typical local market, it features a series of tables arranged around a small open-air square, far enough from the street to barely notice its presence. It feels like you're somewhere else, all that's missing is the sea. The atmosphere is very pleasant: the breezy air helps with the July heat, and the background music adds to the overall impression. The service was flawless; in fact, everyone was very friendly and welcoming. I ordered a raw fish platter, thinking it was an appetizer, but what arrived was a sumptuous dish to say the least. One of the best raw fish platters I've ever eaten, rich, varied, complete, and perfectly presented, with a side of delicious fruit that perfectly complemented the food. It was so generous that I reluctantly had to put off the main course (swordfish steak) I'd ordered, as it would have been too much. During dinner, I had the opportunity to see other tempting seafood dishes, which I intend to try again. The wine list is beautiful, offering several bottles from various Italian regions. Unfortunately, since I was alone, I opted for the glass, which, for a still white, offered only one choice: a rather good Pecorino Abruzzo.
All in all, an excellent choice for a casual evening, characterized by unpretentious simplicity, yet, at the same time, quality.
