    Part of the melon & almond dessert
    Cassie H.

    Beautiful rooftop view of the Colosseum paired with an amazing lunch meal. We opted to order a La carte and it was an amazing experience (although pricier than a typical lunch for us). Our servers were amazing - the service is friendly, professional, and like a fine tuned dance. The food was flavorful and perfectly prepared. We would definitely recommend coming here on your next trip to Rome!

    This was one of our family's favorite diners in Rome. It was our children's (ages 12 and 14) second Michelin dining experiences. We ordered the Dorico (meat) tasting menu with my youngest ordering the "smart" version of that menu, which allowed her to get two dishes from that menu rather than three. This is a wonderful solution for younger or older diners who want smaller portions rather than having a "children's menu" with watered down dishes. We were delighted with each course, and everything lived up to the standards we've come to expect from a Michelin restaurant. The service was wonderful. There was even a server who made a point of setting my youngest at ease by making her laugh with funny faces behind our backs and and ensuring that she felt comfortable with each dish. The setting for this meal cannot be understated. The view of the colosseum is stunning, especially at night. Even though we were there during the winter and the roof was closed, they made an exception at the end of the evening and opened the roof for photos for our family and another couple who had gotten engaged during dinner that evening. (And what a fabulous engagement setting it was!) It was a beautifully well-rounded event with food, service, and setting all complementing each other for a perfect Michelin experience.

    I went here in 2022 with my parents (just created a Yelp account) and had an amazing time! The view of the coliseum is absolutely unbeatable and alone makes this restaurant special. The menu itself was also great! My father (who is not an explorative diner) partook in the tasting menu with me and was initially hesitant on some of the dishes due to some of the unique ingredients like cow tongue. He ended up loving every single dish and enjoyed the unique dishes more than anything else! He loved the cow tongue pasta dish and since this experience has been more explorative in his taste. The dessert was also amazing with the presentation on how it mimicked the view that you have of the coliseum while also remaining full of flavor. The wine selection was also very good and I would highly recommend the sparkling rose. Overall this restaurant has great ambiance, and good food!

    WOW! This was truly the most memorable experience on our trip to Italy by far! The quality of food, the excellent staff, and the breathtaking views. It doesn't get any better than Aroma. We had an amazing time here! You absolutely have to add this to your itinerary in Rome. Our waiter offered to take pictures for my family after our meal and even hopped in for a quick selfie! We will definitely be back! Thank you everyone at Aroma!

    My husband and I came here for my birthday today. The staff is so friendly and super attentive. The view is of course amazing. The food was not the selling point for us. It's not to our taste, but that's okay, because we knew the cuisine would be much different than we're used to. We more so wanted to experience eating with the spectacular view of the Coliseum. My advice is to study the menu (there's a minimum that you need to spend) and choose a tasting you can most tolerate if you are wanting to come here mainly for the view. We chose the vegetarian tasting menu, and it was okay. The food is extremely unorthodox with interesting flavors and textures, and it was definitely an experience for us. We paid 450 Euro (tip included), so it definitely wasn't a cheap experience, but again we knew this going in, so to each their own.

    Food, services, view, ambiance was all amazing!! Beautiful beautiful view of the coliseum and the dishes were amazing. The price was very very expensive, somewhat expected going to a Michelin restaurant. We saw this as a once in a lifetime reservation

    Caramel covered popcorn and salted caramel ice cream with an incredible view of the Colosseum (Flavian Amphitheater).

    Incredible view and ambience. The food is pricey, but every dish is perfectly cooked and presented. The service is impeccable, and what you would expect from a Michelin star restaurant. It is a truly unique experience, and a very nice restaurant to celebrate a special occasion such as a honeymoon, anniversary, or engagement. Truly a wonderful place if you are not on a budget, and visiting Rome for the first time.

    Surprise dessert!

    The perfect spot for a date! We were very well taken care of. The team at Aroma made our night special and it exceeded our expectations. The food was simply perfect and we look forward to our next visit!

    High quality food and outstanding service. The Veal tongue, langustines and erb dressing is a must try. Some dishes were only slightly above average but the white truffle and wagyu beef definitely are absolutely super tasty. Unfortunately the price is slightly too high in my point of view. We paid more than 700 € as we paired the tasting menu with the white truffle course. The view directly to the colosseum is also a breathtaking experience. If you are in Rome, you should definitely try to reserve a table in this restaurant. Thanks also to Francesco who did an outstanding job in guiding us through the evening!

    Great view. The food is decent. Service is good. Would not come back. Way too pricey for food quality.

    Beef tartare
    Kimberley R.

    We went to Aroma on a recent trip to Rome. It was highly recommended by a friend. This restaurant has it all! Great food, great service and an epic view of the colosseum. We opted for the 4 course tasting menu which included a beef tartare, limone pasta with lamb, roasted chicken roll with spinach and a chocolate cup with cream and passion fruit for dessert. They threw in a complimentary course of their outstanding carbonara. The meal was divine! Probably the best dessert I've ever had. Add on the service and the view, Aroma is in the class of it's own. Definitely book in advance and arrive on the earlier side to get the best seat.

    Very cool cocktail bar that tries to be a "speakeasy" but doesn't quite reach that level of…read moresecrecy. We wandered in here before dinner in the Trastevere area of Rome looking for a high end cocktail. This place does not disappoint. The decor reminds me of Mardi Gras meets Prohibition... the cocktail menu is unique and the mixologist is simply outstanding. You do need to fill out a slip to "become a member" before they offer you a drink and take your order. While it looks a bit mysterious from the street, this sophisticated tiny cocktail bar is quite something. Definitely a nice place to sip on an elegant mixed adult beverage.

    Niji Cafe is the coolest bar in the Trastevere area…read more They are located next to a restaurant that was actually featured in a Netflix show and since then is forever busy, but next to that craziness you can find a red door which takes you to a magical places of delicious craft cocktails and a cool whimsical vibe. The only thing you need to do once you find the red door, is ring their doorbell and someone will come out and help you. They are a very small bar, so if you have a large party of 4+, I would suggest to make a reservation ahead of time. Their decoration is a mix of Alice in Wonderland with Italian hipster vibe. Everything feels super cool and the atmosphere is very welcoming. The cocktails are delicious and the bartender's english is pretty good, so if you are looking for recommendations he can help you. Another thing that I really like about this place is that people don't smoke inside. There are other speakeasies around town that allow smoking, and I honestly can't be there more than 1 hour. Salute!
