    3.5 stars. Normally I would give this place a 3 stars for the value (pricey!) but seeing how it's in the heart of a huge tourist zone filled with terrible, cheaply made, and overpriced food, this restaurant seemed to be a nice change of pace. Just minutes from the Vatican City entrance, you'll find a huge amount of restaurants with terrible food or flavourless oily food for a few Euros. We were told that Amalfi was a fairly good restaurant that does Neapolitan style pizza in a nice clean atmosphere that wasn't incredibly expensive. They weren't wrong! The restaurant has huge woodfire stone oven for their pizza and if you're in a rush, they have some premade slices in the entry area. If you're looking to sit down and enjoy a few moments (or a lot of moments in our case), this would be a good option before spending hours in the Vatican. The restaurant has a lot of tables inside and outside if you prefer to enjoy your meal in the Roman sun. It is quite clean and I didnt find the place overloud or crowded. It was nice considering I just spent hours being in line up and crowds at the Coliseum. My only issue with the place is the service... ordering is slow. Very very slow and it can seem to be very confused. Also, the kitchen seems best to be focused on their pizza and salads. Around us, everyone who ordered pasta either got them significantly later than everyone else at the table or it went missing! Margherita pizza - The most reasonable priced item on the list and though its close to $20 Canadian ($13 Euros), it was a generous personal pizza that could easily feed 2 people or one super hungry person. It wasn't as nicely charred or spotted like traditional Neapolitan but it had a pretty good taste to it. 3.5/5 Tonno salad - What seems to be a very generous serving is really a large shallow service platter. It could be used as a platter for the entire table but for a person, it's just the right size for one. Still it was filled with very good olives, tuna, grape tomatoes, slices of carrots, and fresh leaves. I enjoyed eating this and would say that their salads are pretty good. Like the pizza, it is nearly $20 Canadian ($13 Euros) and its expensive but seeing how we're within 100 m of the Vatican, it was a good place to eat real food. 3.5/5 Sometimes you can't find a good place to eat when you're in the heart of a tourist zone but Amalfi offers good food with fairly decent but slow service ... yes it's at a price but seeing how there's cardboard being served as pizza for $5 Euros a slice, I feel this is a much better option!

    Went back for a sit down meal- fried rice balls, 2.50 each (basically tasted like fried Spanish rice), pasta- 12 euros for a plate, and mineral water, 2.50 for 1/2 L. Ended up being 32 euro when the 3 dollar service charge was added on. I guess the pasta wasn't a bad deal- it had flavor, especially the pesto (the cheese and pepper less so)- but I won't go back. The take out pizza is a good deal- the sit down restaurant is only so so. On the other hand, if your desperate, it certainly is "good enough" and it's a tough area to find decent food at any kind of reasonable price.

    Eat like the locals! The pizzas are made fresh to order right inside the front door of restaurant! Delicious food, many options, friendly servers.

    20 euro "tourist" tax..

    Food is decent and service is good. But we were charged 20 euro "service tax" for party of 5. This this the only restaurant I've been to in my 2 weeks in Italy that charges this service (tourist) tax..

    Delicious foodie...! I had the spaghetti with seafood scrumptious and perfect portion.

    We received to Reccos for this place...interesting point, the pizzeria amalfi is located right across the street from the amalfi...same family, just heavier on the pizza offerings vice assorted pastas etc. Though we did not eat there, looking at the traffic and food being brought out, worth a stop as well. Why so close? Couldn't tell ya...must be a Roman thing. For starters, their house red wine was excellent, a crowd pleaser!! Several nice pasta dishes were ordered...all nicer presented. One critique, the seafood pasta was ok, a little light on quality/quantity....room for improvement. On a high note, the ravioli porcini was marvelous...a new taste for me/heavy looking but presents as both light and savory, bravo!! Pizza...porcini/sausage/basil...quite good, very much on par w/Roman, brick oven pizza. All for now....

    Review # 1200 After…read moresome shopping on the Via cola Di Riemzo, we were ready for lunch. This spot was a Yelp find. We arrived just before they opened at 12:30. We asked for a table outside and the kind lady asked us if we had a reservation (oh oh). We didn't. No problem as we took our pick of one of the tables. Two levels inside with a small Bar in the back. Before we knew it, outside seating was full and inside also filled up-a good sign. We ordered a liter (ended up being too much but when in Rome...) of their house Red and enjoyed it. For starters, we ordered the Fried Artichokes (thick breading and will order the Roman style with garlic/vinegar next time), fried Zucchini and Suppli-Cacio Pepe. The Suppli was delicious and was enjoyed the most. For main, it was Pasta Carbonara (Guanciale )-Proper carbonara and the streak of not having a bad version of this dish in Rome continues. The sliced Beef with mushrooms was also delicious -super tender and thin pieces of beef (medium rare as requested). We asked if the Tiramisu was house-made. Our server answered, "yes, and I am the one who makes it." How could we not order after that?! One of the best Tiramisus we've had. Perfect balance of coffee dipped lady fingers with cream-delicious! Our Server was kind, attentive and full of hustle -she was covering a lot of ground. Don't miss this Gem if you are in the Prati district.

    On our last night in Rome, we wanted to dine at an intimate restaurant located close to our…read moreapartment in Prati. Already depressed knowing we were returning to the cold and fearful Minneapolis, we spent the day packing and wandering Prati. After drowning our sorrows at a few cocktail emporiums in the early evening, we walked into Su e Giu without a reservation close to 9:30. The two guys working the front showed us to a table, and we proceeded to have a perfect last night meal. Our appetizers and pastas were great, service was friendly, and I spent time reflecting on how wonderful Rome is, rather than thinking about our return to the fractured States. Su e Giu Cucina Romana is the perfect Roman restaurant to feel La Dolce Vita. It is a sweet life indeed.

I had possibly the most amazing chick food pasta a girl could imagine. Girls know what girl food is. The pasta in Italy is just better -obviously. But then put all sorts of girl flavors on it like Lemon and Orange, just lightly enough, zest with a small hint of cheese-..... omgosh. Yes, yes, and yes. Need my hubs to replicate at home. He is going to be busy trying to perfect this. Tagliatelle with orange and lemon parmesan. This was it. It was the best. Everything else we ordered was amazing as well. Wait outside. They don't have a sign telling you to wait, no server telling you to wait. You wait out there, wondering if you're in the right place, but then people stand behind you and you're like - oh! I'm here. This is the place. There are possibly 4 tables inside. It's small. I read about them being rude- we did not have that problem. In fact, they made a mistake and we kindly let them know we ordered something else- they corrected it and were nice about it.

Our kind waiter bright over water, bread and breadsticks. No olive oil, no butter just dry. For our lunch I decided on the cacio e Pepe and Lisa opted for the ragú. Both were delicious. For dessert we were told the owners mom made lemon cake so that was a no brainer. It was fabulous and paired well with espresso. Our waiter also brought us Amaro. It's a licorice like liqueur enjoyed as a digestif. Definitely an acquired taste that reminded me of Aguardiente. Overall the service and staff were exceptional and I would return if ever in a Vatican City again.

We were both satisfied with our selections. Our meals started with bread service, both fresh bread and packaged breadsticks. We didn't receive any olive oil which might be the norm in Italy. For dessert, we opted for a slice of their featured lemon torta. It was enjoyable and we paired it with espresso. Finally, our server offered us a popular digestivi - Amaro. It reminded me of Jägermeister and I wasn't a fan. But I appreciated the hospitality and kindness of his gesture. In summary, we left content and with full bellies. Our server did a great job and the manager or owner acknowledged us and seemed to appreciate our business. All in all, this lunch was a positive experience.
