    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....

    Everyone needs a trip to Italy, if nothing more than to enjoy all of the food…read more When you've landed, you're hungry, and it's not lunch time, and it's not dinner time, you may end up, selling for whatever you can find is open We were absolutely starving, and wanting to indulge in our first Italian meal, what do you do when you're in Italy?! You may want to indulge in pasta or pizza! We walked in, and we were immediately seated. Air conditioning is nonexistent, and on a hot summer day, it would've been cooler to dine outside. had that been an option, and it was 95° out. As soon as we were seated, we were immediately told that Pizza and some of their baked Italian dishes were not going to be available. Boo. The wait staff seemed fairly nice, and offered to bring us glasses of water. The glasses were super tiny, and thankfully the waitress brought over a carafe of water. We asked for a few suggestions, since both of us had been craving pizza, and she suggested the Carbonara. She said it was one of the best dishes. While we were waiting for our food, several other tables were immediately filled up with other customers, families and friends alike. It was interesting that those tables were served pizza... I'll just leave it at that. The carbonara Was anything less than delicious. We both found the pasta to be barely cooked. Not al dente, but barely cooked. The seasoning was mediocre, and there was very little pork, which is supposed to be the highlight of this dish, in this dish. Diners tip: if you are not a local, keep in mind that your version of Customer Service may or may not fit what Customer Service is in Rome. Despite being hungry, I had a hard time, finishing the food, let alone actually eating it. The waitress only came over at the end to drop off the check, and when she noticed that I had barely eaten anything, first gave me a strange look, and then asked about it. It was definitely one of those situations where saying something was wrong would've been met with unwanted attention. This is in a place to add to your must try list... There are plenty of other places, even in and around this area that more than likely would be a better choice.

    Bufala pizza with red sauce and lasagna was excellent. Seating was fast and good serviceread more
