I loved this restaurant/wine bar so much. We didn't have a reservation but they put our names down and let us order drinks and bar snacks at the bar (seating along a wall facing the bar and the bar itself). We ordered one of their more natural red wines available chilled, and Pane & Olio EVOO, and Salsiccette al Tartufo. The bread was so fresh (baked in house daily), and also came with a spicy olive oil option as well as salt and pepper and a plate to dip. The sausage was the perfect little snacking cup with toothpicks and overall everything went well with our wine. They also gave us the little circular baked crackers to dip in our wine. When we were called we were moved to the main dining area which was adorable. Nearly every table had unique artwork on the surrounding walls. We then ordered more of the same wine, the Bonaccia salad, and the Parmigiana di Melanzane con Ricotta Salata. The salad was SO good. It was perfect with lemon and delicious olive oil dressing and an even mix of lettuce, cooked diced potatoes, olives, octopus, sundried cherry tomatoes. The eggplant was a fantastic texture, not too soft but tender and the cheese on it was immaculate. We were too full for dessert but the waiter offered us free limoncello shots as a night cap. My favorite part of this spot was how fun and kind the staff were to us. Letting me practice my Italian, giving great recommendations and overall being super accomodating. I'd love to come back. read more

Ai Tre Scalini was such a great find in Rome! Everything we had was absolutely delicious. The eggplant parmigiana was rich, flavorful, and one of those simple Italian dishes that you keep thinking about afterward. We also had a beautiful selection of Italian cured meats that was perfect for sharing. The atmosphere is exactly what you hope to stumble upon while wandering through Rome--cozy, lively, authentic, and full of character. Great food, great wine, and the kind of place that makes you want to linger a little longer. Definitely a spot we would return to! read more

Our tour guide recommended this spot for lunch and what a recommendation it was! We arrived around 1:30 on a Wednesday. Still busy for lunch and at first there weren't any outdoor tables but somehow one became available right after we arrived. Smaller interior with sectioned dining areas and a good sized outdoor eating area. Our server recommended the Buffalo Ricotta cheese with honey truffle-wow! It was exquisite-so light with honey truffle taking it over the top. They ran out of their Rose so we went with the recommended Red-Monica de Sardegna (delicate/spicy- Sardinian) For main, despite many enticing options, we ordered Lasagna Funghi and the Ricotta Ravioli stuffed with artichokes with Cacio Pepe cream. The lasagna was like no other we've had before -must try! The Ravioli was decadent and creamy-delicious! We were talked into the fresh Panna Cotta for dessert-simple, fruity and light -just right with our espresso and milk. Our server, Anna, took great care of us-kind and patiently provided recommendations and menu option details. One of the top restaurants in the Monti area and not to be missed! read more

Grabbed dinner here while in Rome. Love the vibes of this place and the service was great! They have a fun beer selection! We asked what the server recommended and ordered lasagna. It was fantastic! One person in our party order the pork and I felt that it was VERY dry and would not recommend it. Definitely follow the server's recommendations if you come here. read more

This place is so freakin' good. Hubs and I went 2 times while in Rome, which we never do. The porchetta was amazeballs. Hubs got the meatballs and they were also good. One of the times we just went in for snacky things and got the dried pork strips/sausages and the buffalo ricotta and truffle honey. So good!!! Also tried the pulpo (octopus) salad that had potatoes - I wasn't expecting it to be warm, but I really enjoyed it. Ambiance is nice and they had some local beers on tap that I also enjoyed. The outside is beautiful with all the vines. The inside of the restaurant is super cozy. Love it. read more

This spot is a total vibe. Always crowded & vibrant but we happen to slip in and saddle up to the minuscule bar. This place was hopping! Staff is really fun and fast and humorous. Enjoyed an excellent Sauvignon Blanc from Puglia. They offered a solid wine menu, craft cocktails, and European draft beers. We enjoyed smaller plates, the carpaccio was incredibly fresh. Eggplant Parm was tender and rich. Almonds and olives and crusty bread, and a well dressed salad to start. . Some of the neighborhood regulars even bring their pets. Super cool spot close to Colosseum another attractions as well as some other wine bars. read more

Service was great. Pizza and croquettes were excellent. Kids enjoyed their pasta dinner.

The waiters were all really sweet and accommodating of us not speaking French which I appreciated a lot! We arrived around 6:45pm with no reservation and despite it being a popular restaurant, they were able to seat us within 15 minutes. I ordered a lasagna, which was pretty yummy but a little on the salty side. My brother got a chicken tomato dish which was delicious, it was hearty and warm. Overall, a very solid experience! read more

Looked on Yelp for an authentic local restaurant and found this recommendation. Easy walk from my hotel using Apple Maps, and the entire front is covered with beautiful vines and greenery. I was seated quickly, without a reservation, around 7pm. Waiters speak great English and I ordered the buffalo ricotta with truffle honey, truffle sausages, lasagna, and ravioli. Ricotta with truffle honey - great portion, affordable, and tasty. The waiter brought some olive oil and salt and pepper for a savory twist as well. We ordered bread on the side since there was no carb with this dish. Truffle sausages - small bites and rich flavor. Lasagna - loved the beef ragu component. Delicious! Easy to share between two people. Ravioli- no meat in this dish, had 5 pieces and creamy and cheesy. Great place to welcome us to Italy! read more

We came in late from Venezia and noticed this place had plenty of life! Walked up to get some food and to our disappointment it was closing. Adriano and Alex welcomed us in, and said no problem please sit and order. This is that at home feel, come sit, eat and enjoy. The service was excellent. The food top tier. You won't regret it. I Highly recommend it. read more

We stopped here for dinner one night in Rome and really enjoyed ourselves. We chose to sit outside and the street is very busy so it is a little noisy, but still a great place! We got the meatballs and lasagna and enjoyed both. The meatballs don't come with noodles or anything but we got some extra bread to eat it with! They were big and juicy and the sauce had a lot of flavor. The lasagna was also tasty and a pretty big slice too! I couldn't finish it sadly but wished I could. We also got the hummus which tasted super fresh and went perfectly with the bread! Def recommend stopping in if you are staying nearby. Service was also really fast for being in Europe. read more

I just had a small lunch here. Perhaps the item I ordered wasn't the right thing. I got the porchetta because the first time I had it somewhere else was good. Here, the pork was so dry and not enough skin to give more flavor. I had to request the mustard because it just wasn't good on its own. The mista insalate was just mixed greens with some olives. For 7.50 euros, it was just ok. Our server was really nice though. She spoke English. We had to pay inside. Credit card accepted. Bathroom was also inside for patrons only. Free wifi was nice! read more

A random local that I made friends with recommended this place. Thanks to yelp I was able to find those place easily by looking at the outside photos. Traveler friendly! They have complimentary wifi for you if you didn't get a SIM card or pocket wifi. Staff is friendly and speaks English well. Took my order almost as soon as I sat down even though the place was busy. Ricotta di buffalo e Miele Al tartufo (ricotta cheese with truffle honey): 5/5 you can smell the truffle and it smelled amazing. The cheese and creamy and light. All of this paired with the slightly bitter mixed greens made this a really balanced plate. Parmigiana do melanzane con ricotta Salata (parmigiana with eggplant and salty ricotta) 3.5/5 it was okay, not mind blowing. I wouldn't order this again, but I can see how it a person likes tomato pastas they would like this. read more

Intro: I had to be up early the next day so I was looking for a dinner spot close to the apartment I was staying at. Ai Tre Scalini was a short walk away so my decision was made. Once I arrived, they were close to capacity but I was seated at the bar. Ambiance (4/5): Located in a lively part of Rome, they have a nice outdoor patio and a trendy interior. It makes for a fun spot to have dinner, a drink, or both. Drinks (4/5): Compared to other spots I visited, this bar/restaurant was at the top in terms of Italian craft beers on the menu. Which is exactly what I ordered. I love to try local beers whenever I'm traveling. Service (2/5): Quite the snafu on the part of the bartender. I ordered an appetizer and a main dish by mentioning my order to the bartender while simultaneously pointing to the dish on the menu. My appetizer arrived so I chowed down on that for quite a while. A lot of time passed and I still hadn't received my entree. Eventually, I brought it up to the bartender. After some initial confusion, we realized that he had misheard my entree selection and thought that I had ordered a second appetizer instead. Since the appetizer was more of a snack, I had thought it was complimentary and it's common in Italy to receive snacks with your drink order. Once the air was cleared, they brought my entree out as fast as they could and they took the second appetizer off of my bill. Sometimes things are lost in translation. It was unfortunate on my part because I was in a hurry but they did their best to make things right which I appreciated. Food (3/5): The starter or light bite that I ordered was some cheese croquettes. I was expecting the croquettes that you get at Spanish restaurants, for example. Instead, they were just cheese crisps. Like something you would get from a grocery store as a snack. Not something I would ever order at a restaurant. For my entree, I had the meatballs. They were tasty and served in a red sauce. While quite good, it was a small portion. Overall: Some bad luck on my part here so maybe a second visit would fare better. Despite the mishap, Ai Tre Scalini seems overpriced for the portion sizes in my opinion. read more

The view is great and you can't beat this for location in Piazza Navona. They are also famous for their tartufo which is a semifreddo dessert covered in chocolate shell. That being said, the service is a bit slapdash and they totally forgot an order which meant one of our party was waiting 20 mins for his dish while we had all finished eating. Obviously you are paying for the location, so you are not getting great value for money - the food is way better on many other places away Piazza Navona. read more

This broke our food-virginity in Italy as it was the first restaurant we visited in Italy on our travels! So you know what they say about your first, right!? What this place does is not-have-a-kitchen approach and rather prepares the meals in advance and heats them up. Not good, right? Wrong. Can't even notice because the food is so amazing. You wouldn't have even noticed if I didn't note it here. Try the truffle salami, lord help me. read more

This was my favorite cheap eats and favorite dinner I had in Roma. Service has always been outstanding and even with a slight language barrier sometimes, the staff has never once disappointed. Great low key place. I've only had the chance to dine indoors but it's so lovely that I didn't mind not sitting outdoors once. Even if there are people waiting for tables, there is absolutely no rush. Great food (especially the Roman chicken). read more

Not pictured we ordered the prosciutto and buratta as well. They were amazing! Perfectly cooked. Reasonably priced too! Roughly 50€ for appetizer, 2 meals, water, and 2 glasses of wine!

We arrived and were seated quickly without a reservation on a Wednesday night around 7 pm. The food was satisfying and the service was fantastic. As an appetizer, we ordered the Cured sausage for two came with four types of cheeses and four those of meat. The cheese included two soft kinds of cheese (ricotta and Buffalo mozzarella) and two hard kinds of cheese. We also got the cured sausage with truffle. The cheese/meat platter had fantastic portions. Following appetizers, we ordered the lasagna with beef ragu. This satisfied our lasagna craving! Lastly, we finished dinner off with tiramisu which was delicious. read more

Wow wow wow! This was a quick solution after a long day and a quick yelp search for some local places. Boy did this place deliver, service was attentive and so fast, ambiance was just amazing, truly authentic Italian and a bopping vibe.

Get here early as a line forms pretty fast, but I promise it's worth the wait. read more
