Beautiful rooftop terrace to eat dinner. We found this place on a whim and so glad we chose to dine here. It was a Sunday and we did not have reservations, but ate on the earlier end around 8pm (we were one of the first tables). We had the cheese board to share (very hefty- the Gorgonzola was the only one that really stood out to us). Then had pasta that came in these huge bowls I couldn't even finish mine! My carbonara was very tasty and my husband was happy with the pasta special. read more

Great in every way. We recommend going to the downstairs bar/restaurant- you get less people and not as crowded as upstairs, good music , good service and you get to watch the bartenders work. We had the Angelina's appetizer to share which is 5 different dishes . We're weren't keen on the 1 dish of bread soaked in sauce but the others were excellent . I had the grilled octopus with grilled endive served with pumpkin sauces- not everyone will like the endive but I enjoyed it immensely. My wife had the monkfish saltimbocca and raved about it. read more

Angelina was one of our stops during a food tour my wife and I took. Angelina hit the trifecta with the food, service and ambience being the best we experienced while we were in Rome for 5 days. The pasta and wine were amazing... and the tiramisu was the best we ever had (even better than gelato I dare say)! We plan to take our adult children to Rome next year, and going to Angelina is on the top of our list. read more

Such a beautiful restaurant! The rooftop part of it is so cute. The service was okay, it seemed that they didn't care too much about their customers. The food was good, but wasn't the best. The prices were high for food that you can get at any other restaurant in Rome for cheaper. read more

Roman friends of ours in California turned us on to this incredible place and it exceeded expectations. We walked into what we thought was the entrance that ended up being a sister business owned by the same family downstairs from the restaurant and had cocktails in a really cool atmosphere with an incredibly friendly host and bar tenders. I would suggest doing this before dinner. Upstairs we were treated to an open, light and homey room with very attentive and friendly service. Then we got really quiet and I actually found myself moaning as I was eating the best L'amatriciana I've ever had in my life. My wife had the linguine con vongole which was its equal. I've been eating these dishes all my life and absolutely could not believe how good Angelina's preparations were. We then returned downstairs for some grappa and were treated like family. Just amazing. alla prossima! read more

Delicious drinks but the food was only okay (decent but not mind blowing). My favorite drink was the elderflower aper spritz! read more

Angelina a Testaccio - Special Spritz - Italian Near Me - Roma, 62

Let me start by saying that this was the great splurge of the entire European adventure. This meal for 3 cost more than our lodging in at least two countries, but it was worth every last cent. Let's start with arrival, since this place has atmosphere! This is an old house converted into a multilevel dining experience. Each table in this establishment has a unique view, whether that be romantic garden balcony or the clean, bright dining room we were seated in. While our party did include a local quite fluent in Italian, the staff kindly brought us menus in English as well (since my American accent is unmistakable). Our waiter was also fluent in English, which made asking questions much simpler. Alas, the tale of the eponymous Angelina was not available in English, so only one of us could read the full details there. Not to worry, since our first courses zipped out of the kitchens quickly, moreso since we arrived well before the crowds. We can't recall the details of two of our appetizers, only that they were completely amazing. One involved some of the best roasted eggplant I've put in my mouth to date. Pictures are included, but I think they were seasonal specials since I can't identify them from the online menus as I review after the trip. For the second course, Raz and I ordered some of their pastas. Raz doesn't generally do pasta, but he was awed by the Carbonara. I went for the Cacio e Pepe, which is a simple dish of noodles, hard cheese, olive oil, and black pepper. The pasta was fresh, though, and that makes all the difference. I tried Cacio e Pepe every place that I could, and this was my favorite by far. Our third courses were slow in coming, as is expected, since European cultures tend to take more care over dinner conversation than we do in the states. To that end, I have to mention the acoustics of the place, which were excellent in that we weren't deafened by the echo and reecho of the myriad conversations from a house that was completely packed before our main courses arrived. That wait was worth it, as the dishes were even more impressive than our anticipation, especially Raz's octopus, which became our favorite in the world at the very first bite. Our local host had a tuna steak that was absolute perfection, and I went for the scamorza with prosciutto, which I think was technically a side, but completely a meal in itself, and decadent beyond imagining in its smoky, cheesy goodness. To top off our feast, we enjoyed the hazelnut and chocolate surprise of the tartufo, and the tiramisu which is right up in the top 5 that we've had in our lives. All in all, a stellar experience that we would recommend to anyone as a one-time splurge if they make it all the way to Rome read more

Favorite spot in rome, perfect ambience on the rooftop and amazing melanzane. Little out there but we took scooters to get there and it added to how nice our experience was. Was recommended by an Italian living in rome and so glad we went here. read more

Amazing dinner. We got Carbonara, Amatriciana and Cacio&Pepe: all the roman pastas! They were simply amazing and we tasted all of them. Food comes in these massive bowls, looks very good. The place is in the neighbourhood of Testaccio, not to far from the historical city centre. The restaurant inside is very nice and well furnished. I'd definitely come back to try more dishes here! read more

We stopped in here around 2:30 on a Monday as we finished exploring the Testaccio Market ti get out if the rain. To our surprise, this unassuming restaurant has a lively little 2nd floor terrace with heaters that we ate lunch on. I had butternut squash gnocchi, roasted potatoes and a baby greens salad. The food was delicious, fresh, imaginative and delivered with very friendly service. Prices are moderate. This was a great find and would highly recommend it. read more

We came here on a food tour and tried their delicious caccio e pepe, amatriciana and ox tail. The wine that was chosen to accompany was well suited to the meals. Lovely ambience and good service. read more

Worst service I have ever experienced. Food was mediocre, nothing you cannot find done better in the local restaurants... Never again will we visit this place, as they are a bad representation for our guests of Italian, Roman culinary and service experience. Shockingly Disgusting! read more

I decided to go for two stars only because of the beautiful veranda, shabby chic style, and very accurate interior design. The cuisine itself is very basic and overpriced. At the end of the dinner our bill was overpriced for a total of 6 euros (including 2 euros for the served bread - never asked, nor eaten). These few things were flaws that made the service looks inaccurate and unprofessional. One last thing. When leaving, one of my guests spotted one of the waiters using the toilet and going back to the floor without washing his hands. No comment. read more
