"Really tasty food. Caprese, ravioli, and fettuccini were all really good. Service was friendly and inviting."

Colin and Jennifer Underhill 3 week ago

"Ravioli and bruschette were excellent, prices are amazing, service amazing. Carbonara was good but a strong taste of something, maybe smoky or something from the pork so a little hard to eat a lot. The lights are bright, maybe we were too early at 7 pm but didn’t have that nice ambiance. Also very odd Spanish dance music, felt like being in a Mexican all inclusive."

"A great little restaurant, just a few minutes past the tourist-trap restaurants near the Trevi Fountain. Great food, wonderful service and at a very good price! One of the best meals we had in Rome."

"The food in this place is great, they have worked out the flavors in their dishes. The vibe is relaxed and it felt a bit like a large family reunion with large groups of happy and energized people enjoying a home cooked meal. The only ding I had was the restaurant acoustically can be rather loud. The staff was great, helpful with a sense of humor."

"Amazing food & best tiramisu I’ve had in Italy. It was a little odd that the server asked us for tip since tip culture is nonexistent in Italy and this never happened to us during our 2week trip here."

CS
Cristina Smiarowski 3 month ago

"An absolutely wonderful restaurant with outstanding food! We went here twice during our visit to Rome and loved it. We had the ravioli, gnocchi, lasagna, meatballs and chocolate cake - all excellent! We loved that this restaurant was quieter and less touristy. Our waiter was great and very kind. We look forward to going back!"
