The owner I recall is from Frascati, so he is a really authentic Roman and for someone like myself, who studied there during college, a pleasure to get to know. Mixing the best of an authentic Roman experience with a sort of hip Brooklynish neighborhood vibe, it doesn't get much better. I hope to stop in again.
