This restaurant is a stones throw from the famous Fontana Trevi." I was hungry and from the outside it looked inviting but upon entering I felt it might be a tourist grab rather than the good restaurant I was seeking. When I am doubt therefore I order the basics. In this case a glass of the house red and fettuccine Alfredo - sadly (although the wine was good) the fettuccine was a watery slop rather than the thick meaty pasta and rich Parmesan I was hoping for. Not a great restaurant in my opinion - look elsewhere is my recommendation read more

Food is decent, service was abysmal. It took 45 minutes to get the bottle of wine we ordered. Appetizers came first. Then they forgot one of our entree's. Two hours later as I write this I still have not been served. Much better restaurant across the street. read more

Lack-luster food. Loved sitting outside and the random musicians that would play music for tips. Waiter gave a great wine recommendation but the carbonara was disappointing. read more

This place have the worst customer service on the planet I will advice you to run as far as you can from this nightmare

Last minute get together with 15 family. This place is HUGE, the service was exceptional and the food was PERFECTO! Nice first night in Rome, sure made everyone feel at home, a thousand thanks! Ask for Nicolette! read more

We just finished a 4-hour tour of the Vatican, then went to the Trevi fountain, so we just wanted to take a break. We spotted this place with a beautiful bar and it was so inviting. The bar tender was very accommodating trying new mixes based on our liking -- whisky based, smokey, herbal, tequila-based, spicy, etc. And their experimentation went very well! Then we had oysters and they were very fresh and succulent. Great place! read more

Had drinks here a couple of nights and boy, were they delicious!! Although close to the Trevi fountain, this had the feel of a more local (as opposed to touristy) place. If you like elegant cocktails, this is the place to go! They come with a large serving of olives and pretzel type snack. read more

They will charge you for things that you didn't order and force you to pay. Servers are also rude. You can't do anything after you are done eating and they know it. Avoid this place. It'll cost you in tons of hidden fees and extra food charges. read more

If I could give it zero stars I would. Service was the worst. After we ordered our drinks the waitress disappeared... literally. When she finally resurfaced after eating dinner (we saw her), we had finished drinks. She never reappeared to see if we wanted anything more to drink, or anything else for that matter. Based on the prices, our expectations were higher. My husband ordered pasta with lobster sauce and he didn't finish it. He was hungry, but that speaks volume to the quality. We have enjoyed dinners from smaller establishments and truly regretted this experience. Not one positive thing to say! Sorry folks... save your Euros and find another establishment. read more

This is a very easy review for me to write as I so vividly remember how awesome it was. While vacationing recently with my other two friends, we made two visits here for breakfast, and then lunch/dinner. Everything was superb, from the food itself, to the portions, to the presentation. The service was prompt and they treat you very well! As foreigners, we didn't know much Italian, but not to worry as their menus provide translation. This is a really nice establishment and fantastic for any time of the day. If I ever return to Rome, I will certainly return to this place. A few highlights included, oysters paired with champagne, their cocktails in general, eggs benedict, cheese plate, pasta, etc. Just a as a tip, expect to spend a decent amount of money because you will love it so much you may just keep wanting more and more! We were all victim to this. But on a serious note, it is a little fancier, but not too high-end by any means. Try this place out! You will love it. read more

The food was good but the service was okay. The table outside was on a slant so it was a bit uncomfortable. We were charged for bread even though we never received it therefore when we asked about the additional charge, the manager took it off the bill but said the waiter claimed he brought it, when he never did. When we asked to see him again, he left... it was sketchy read more

I ate here 5 years ago for lunch while in Rome and loved it. Well, those 5 years took their toll on this place. Extremely rude hostess and wait staff (the same one bumped into me while seated 3 times). Ordered a glass of wine, it was a seriously short pour (barely over 100mL). The food was mediocre, and for the price that makes it horrible. Won't bother with this place again. read more

Sitting here now.... Manager sat us and we had many minutes pass by to ask why it is we want. Then when all we wanted was cocktails the level of service dropped to zero even when our cocktails were 10 Euros each. Even when they charge a service fee and for bread they never gave us bread and service was from any waiter that we flagged down. She kept talking about us to her waiters because they looked here and walked away after talking to her. Manager name is Nicolette. Very bad service could be that we have a baby with us or that we are not Italian but she seems French anyways :( read more

Our favorite restaurant in Rome, great breads, great bartender, and the best presentation of incredible dishes in the city. It's not cheap but was the highlight of our culinary day by far. read more

Went here for dinner and the service was AWFUL they were so rude and not accommodating. The man i had was super short when i asked questions. They charged us almost 8 euros because we sat down. They seved us bread that was rock hard as well as freezing cold. Entrée was decent the Portion was very small. Would never go back. So rude there. read more

This restaurant is excellent! We came here on a hot day and almost all the seating is inside or in shade. It wasn't too busy and the service was fantastic! The food came super quick and was absolutely delicious. The beef meatballs were the best. Highly recommend. We came looking for pizza, they didn't have any on the menu but were incredibly surprised with the delicious food. read more

Aside from the prices being up there. We did eat here twice, this was one of places open late and we were adjusting from California time to European time. The first time both dishes were amazing, the tuna past plate was great. My fiance got the amatriciana rigatoni and he is not a big pasta eater. He loved it! We came again and food was meh, no sauce in the lasagna? I must have missed that on the menu but I did not care for it. Service was good but pretty over priced. read more

Located near Trevi Fountain. Wet came in for dinner after coming in day before for a couple of drinks. Bar area actually gets 4 stars for drinks and service... However the food and dinner service ultimately gets the 2 stars. Service was slow and we were only checked on for order then left alone most of our dinner. I ordered the lasagna that was very dry to the point the noodles even seemed overcooked and crispy. The flavors were lacking to say the least... my husband ordered a spaghetti and the noodles which were not aldenta and the sauce again lacked flavor. I am one who loves dessert but I didn't even bother this time due to the lack of taste from our dinner... was very disappointed in what seemed like an American meal vs an Italian meal while in Rome... read more

Excellent food and jazzy background music set the theme. Superior service adds to the experience. A wonderful place to go for dinner, a drink, of dessert near the Trevi Fountain. read more

Do not come here! The hours state open until 2am. We walked in at 1:06 and they said they did last call at 1 because they had to clean that night. We really wanted to try their raw bar as it is one of few in Rome so we came back the next day, what a mistake!! Incredibly rude service, scoffed at us when we ordered a seafood tower to share. It wasn't worth money, the shrimp and prawns were limp like they were old and raw fish was not sashimi quality. When it was time to pay, the internet was down and they did NOTHING to try to fix it. All they said was "sorry there is an ATM down the street". As we are from the USA, the conversion rate is outrageous. $100 meal just cost us $150 thanks to the unhelpful management. I have worked in F&B for a long time and as management, you should offer more than a meaningless "sorry." This was very disappointing as this place came highly recommended from multiple people and we were very excited to try it. We will not be returning and do not suggest others visit. read more

Nice decor, friendly bartenders who made good drinks. It reminds me of Balthazar in New York City. Definitely worth a stop in for a drink when you are at the Trevi Fountain. Just make sure you tell them how you like your Bloody Mary. read more

We visited this restaurant and requested a table for 2. The restaurant was busy so we requested if we can sit at the bar. The bar seating was not available and the hostess told us we cannot sit at the tables unless we order a set prefix menu. I found this a bit odd since she has just seated two other couples before us and did not discuss a prefix menu. I made a request again, at this point she started shouting loudly. I do not know how the food is at this restaurant but I would give them zero for service and rude behavior. They have to understand that they are surrounded by 4 and 4.5 star restaurants all over the area and this type of behavior will not help their business. read more

Located near the Trevi Fountain, this is not your typical Roman restaurant. The decor is more reminiscent of New York or San Francisco. The room is open and comfortable and once you're inside, you feel completely removed from the tourist crush outside. The food was excellent. The menu is very wide-ranging and also brings to mind a New York or Parisian brasserie. The only negative was the service. I had ordered the roasted pigeon (because it was written that way on the English menu we were given). Unfortunately, the server heard "roasted potatoes", so there was some confusion when they brought them to the table. After another 15 minutes or so, they figured out the problem, but I couldn't help feeling like they thought it was my fault. However, the pigeon, when finally served, was well worth the wait and we were used to relaxed dinners by that time anyway. read more

Great people, great bar! Best drinks in town. The tenders know exactly what they are doing, and they do it well. Have a couple of drinks and relax. These guys know how to take care of you. We came for drinks ended up snacking. great food. I know there is a lot to do in this town, but make this a stop...right in between Trevi and Parthanon. read more

Absolutely amazing cheeseburgers. But the waitress was very pretentious. I couldn't finish my Burger and I asked for a box and with her nose up she replied, "no, no boxes." My husband and I were immediately turned off. She finally came back with a peice of foil but we were still frustrated, especially after receiving the check. Pricy. read more

The drinks are fantastic, and so is the service. They gave us a free taster player when we came it for drinks, but I didn't love the food. However, as a place to stop for a few cocktails or (the only) Pale Ale in Rome, don't miss this place!! read more

Came here expecting great food going off the reviews. The pasta I got was so salty and strong it was difficult to finish, my order of potatoes was ignored and we received no help in deciphering our menus. The carbonara we also ordered was not appetizing whatsoever. The local hole in the wall restaurants are a better choice, I'm pretty sure the retiring across this place is much more worth your money. read more

It's a wine bar. I gave my feet a break, wine, people watched, wine some more and enjoyed myself. Staff seemed to realize I needed more wine, received it promptly. What else is there? read more

Great Service. Clean clean in the middle of hardcore downtown Rome. An oasis to rest some and continue walking!! read more

Food is depressing. Try anything else!! We were very hungry. It's expensive, poor quality and worst, not good tasting at all.

Hidden service fee per person. Subpar food. Too many other restaurants that are superior to this one in Rome. Pass on this restaurant. Just meh. Tourist trap. read more

Very good Italian food and very good service. Elegant restaurant at a great location. They serve the variety of pure Italian kitchen. We were so pleased at our first visit we went back to try other choices on the menu. Everything was delicious. Their wine list was spectacular. Excellent choice for dinner or lunch (till 5pm). read more

possibly 3 stars as a bar/small dishes or for lower price but 2 stars as a meal/dinner spot based on price/quality of food. Good: wine selections, atmosphere, service, raw oysters, other small dishes - brushetta, tuna fritters, artichoke roman style (side dish) Forgivable: - tagliolini with butter and anchovies: pasta was cooked well but there was one piece of anchovy in the dish....yes, i counted..very quickly. Unforgivable: the foods are a hit or a miss so need to be careful of the selections of the dishes - oso bucco: sauce was too sweet and meat wasn't cooked too well - octopus salad: the quality of octopus was decent but the dressing or the pairings in the salad was really off (when we went today, it was just octopus with saffron potato...nothing else. menu mentioned fresh diced celery but I did not find a single piece of vegetable) - bread: i think someone reviewed as their bread being good...i must disagree strongly... definitely had better bread... Price: EUR 75+ for 2 people with 2 glasses of wine - For about 20 euros less than this bill, we had a really enjoyable meal the night prior near Trevi Fountain with equivalent amount of food/wine. Overall, it was ok. I would definitely stop by for a drink again with some small dishes but won't return for a meal. For the price you can definitely can get much better meal in the area. PS - they had a woman DJ (very random for the restaurant setting) who kept on making random squeaking noise intermittently which impaired the dining experience.... read more

First class all around. Valerie could be the best bartender in Rome - must stop in for a cocktail. read more

Ordered pastrami sandwich and got 1 slice of pastrami that I could barely taste. What I did taste wasn't very good. WiFi wasn't working, it said the modem needed to be reset. When I brought this up with the staff they told me I was wrong. Over priced food. Terrible service. read more

If I could give them 0 stars I would. The pasta was undercooked and when we asked them to remake it they said that's how it is in Italy. The drinks were horrible and the meatballs, I'm pretty sure were dog food. Tourist trap. Do not go here. read more

Subpar service, underwhelmed by top shelf ham, disinterest in creating a memorable experience

Touristy setup, but I guess that's what you get in this area. Smoked salmon and buffalo mozzarella were good. Lasagna was incredibly disappointing. Swordfish tuna steak is only thing saving this for 4 stars as it was prepared and cooked perfectly. Cheesecake was pretty good. Prices were pretty high overall for the quality of food. read more
