A must if you're a fan of charcuterie! The cutest little spot! It's a tiny place so there isn't a ton of seating but you can totally make it work. Besides the food being amazing the ambiance definitely makes this place a must if you're in Rome. The medium board looks overwhelmingly big but I would still recommend it for about 2-3 people. They don't have servers here, you order at the counter and uncork your own wine which I feel makes the experience feel laid back and relaxed. Loved it and will definitely visit again when I return to Rome. read more

A great afternoon snack. The people were sweet and welcoming. We ordered the charcuterie platter medium size for two. It was a lot of food and had great variety.

If you're looking for a hole-in-the-wall-feels-like-real-Rome restaurant instead of a tourist trap near the Fontana di Trevi, try this. We got right in for a seat because we were slightly on the early side, at about 6:30. By the time we left there was a line. The food was delicious and the prices were good. Menu is on the wall, you order at the counter, but I think they'll bring it to you (they handed us ours because we were literally perched at a tiny table within arms reach of the counter). You'll spend like 20 Euros for two decent glasses of wine and a meat & cheese sampler for two. That was all we needed, being we'd had a big lunch. We didn't get the cheapest wine either so you could be even less expensive than that. ACTUAL Italian people were there, which is always my tell of if something is going to be a tourist trap or not. Also for the person below saying they were unfriendly to tourists - I highly disagree. I was totally a bumbling tourist and was confused about how the ordering process worked. My guess is that they were rude tourists - which there are plenty of 'us' out there who are rude. I tried my best at ordering in Italian and while my accent isn't perfect they were very friendly and accommodation. Be friendly and make an effort and people will usually be friendly back. After all, the 'tourists' are how they probably make most of their money. Even I hate other tourists who act like jerks/spazzes/rude. read more

Before I even got my plane ticket to go to Rome, I was drooling over this place. It didn't disappoint. The food is as good as it looks. The service is great and they have great cheap house wine. We went around 1pm and surprisingly we were able to get an actual table. It is a very small place so I would recommend going during slow hours and not at meal rushes. Order and then grab a seat as fast as you can, pay after you eat. Yummy yummy. Check it out! read more

Amazing little restaurant just down the corner from Trevi Fountain. The charcuterie boards were amazing, both beautiful to look at and very tasty. By far, one of the highlights during our family trip to Italy. read more

It's not Zuckerberg's smoked meats. It's much better. Medium platter comes with assorted fruits, meats, bread

such an amazing wood platter, and the price is so perfect. the meats and cheeses that they have are great. The employee noticed i was struggling on choosing what to pick, so he hand picked it for me. Great customer service as well. BUT the size of the restaurant is ridiculous i was pretty much eating standing. read more

The finest meats and cheeses in Rome!!! For about 50 euros, we had an awesome experience here!! The line was out the door at about 10 pm and we waited about half an hour! It was well worth it. We ordered the grand cheese and meat board with two glasses of vino! A glass vino was like 2.50 euros!!! It was a wonderful variety of meats that were piled high with delectable cheeses. We didn't think we could finish the cheese board but we actually finished every last piece of meat and cheese. A picture is worth a thousand words... Check it out.. read more

This was amazing. Seriously worth it. We went two days in a row of the 3 days we were in Rome. It's a hole in the wall and the food is incredible. Totally one of those little places to keep in your back pocket. The people were wonderful too and recognized us on day two! read more

This place was unbelievable!! It is small, you seat yourself and it does get extremely crowded but it is worth it. The platter we received was unbelievable and everything I dreamed about when thinking of visiting Italy. read more

I am a fan of their food and service. Worth a try on your next trip out

Very good... a lot of food that includes meats, cheeses, fruit and breads.. It gets busy a lot so try to find a time to stop that is off time. read more

The food is of excellent quality and the staff is very kind as the true Italian style teaches.

A tiny butcher that isn't technically a restaurant, but they do have limited seating. Not the most comfortable, but oh my god is it worth it! We had the meat and cheese plate for only 10€ per person and I ate a porchetta sandwich. He asked me if I trusted him to choose ingredients and of course I said yes! Both were delicious and well priced for the large portions. They have a variety of wines, which they only sell by the bottle and they have tap water which is a huge plus for us. The cured meats were outstanding and porchetta is their specialty. Love this place!! read more

Just wish they have a bigger shop and table. Food is fantastic, will be back!

The food here is wonderful. I'm here right now, making my way as fast as possible (slowly) through the €15 meat and cheese plate. As a solo diner, if I manage to finish this, it will be due entirely to the deliciousness of it rather than my stomach capacity. The seating/ordering process is a bit challenging. Line up with everybody else, and prepare to maybe get yelled at when you probably inevitably do it wrong; I did. I almost left, but I'm glad I stuck it out. This is a great meal, and the soundtrack is good. Wine doesn't come in glasses, so bring friends or embrace your inner lush (or be responsible and just get a beer). Clientele is mostly tourists, but there are some locals mixed in too. Regardless, a great meal for a fair price. Recommended! read more

Had a wonderful appetizer and glass of wine here mid day. Came to this restaurant after searching yelp. Yes this is a find and was a wonderful experience. read more

Great place near Trevi. Though you can really have a table there--that would be illegal, we'll have to enjoy the little bench. The food is really good, a little too salty to me, but still great food and great price. 10€ Per medium mix can definitely feed more than one. I Love the jams so much!!!! read more

Amazing and I came to this place twice during my 4-day visit in Roma. Super delicious!

Very good. We ordered a medium platter and it was enough for the 3 of us. 30 Euro, 10 for each of us, didn't include drinks, maybe a little on the pricy side but really good meats. Maybe the best ham I've ever tasted. I definitely would recommend!!! read more

This place is AMAZING! We spent 10 nights in Rome and swore to not eat at the same place twice. I think we ate here 3 times! The atmosphere is so fun, and the food is to die for. If you don't know what you want just ask the people that work there. They're more than helpful! read more

Absolute gem of a place. Great staff and courteous service. Went there for lunch after reading yelp reviews and I wasn't disappointed. We got the medium sulami platter. 10 euros per person and a bottle of wine 40 euros total. It was a great enjoyable experience that we will remember and if in the area we will definitely return. Forgot to take pics but can confirm the pics on the reviews more than match up to what was served. read more

We followed reviews from yelp and decided to try this place! It was the best charcuterie we had ever eaten! It is a charming restaurant by the hustle and bustle of the touristy Trevi fountain. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was very inviting! This is a definite must go! read more

Visit Trevi fountain, make a wish and come to this place . There's plenty of selections! It's delish!

This is the first place we ate at in Rome. We found it based on reviews and it did not disappoint. We wanted to avoid tourist traps and therefore chose places where employees might not speak English and menus were most definitely not provided in English. I asked the employee to give us the most popular ordered plate, assuming it was a sandwich because that what we wanted, but it wasn't sandwiches! He said it was enough for 2 people though. We got a gigantic platter of charcuterie, cheese, fruit, spread, and bread. So in a way we were able to make several mini sandwiches. For the record we did see most people eating the platter. It is highly recommended!! We wanted to go back another day for the porchetta sandwich but never made it back. Next time! read more

My wife and I were in Rome, and I'd seen great reviews for this place. It did not disappoint. We had to wait 45-60 minutes because the place is small, but it was worth it. We had the gourmet charcuterie board, and it was amazing. The atmosphere was great too. It was one of our favorite experiences of our trip. read more

Awesome spot. A true hole in the wall. They don't have a restaurant license, so you simply order at the counter and sit down in their 'waiting area' to eat. We went with two friends of ours and ordered two small plates and our friends ordered two medium sized plates with house wine. They served everything on a large plate with a seemingly endless supply of meats and cheeses. The ham with balsamic drizzle was delicious and flavorful... No process taste whatsoever. The prosucitto was absolutely delicious. The other meals and cheeses were fine, not exactly my cup of tea, but it seemed like our friends really enjoyed it. In addition, I ordered a sandwich and one thing to note is the bread served flavorful, fluffy and delicious. Everything here is cut and prepared with grace. A must try if you're in Italy. This is extremely affordable and if you're in the states, this would be a rather expensive dish, so try it here for a fraction of the cost and right where it's imported from read more

Nice place for a quick lunch, ordered a medium mixed board for two and the caprese salad. Lots of different meats and cheeses, along with plenty of bread. The staff was friendly and fast. It's a small space so a line formed quickly and space was a bit too tight, but overall a great experience! read more

This is probably one of the best restaurants, if not, the best, since I've been here in Italy. We asked one of the guys behind to do whatever he liked & recommended. He gave us a grilled pork sandwich with it's crunchy skin like chicharrón, slices of zucchini and sauce (Which I believe was a sun dried tomato sauce or a blue cheese truffle sauce). Molto bene! read more

Delicious charcuterie board. Got the medium for two people and it was more than enough! Cute hole in the wall shop with cozy stools and benches. read more

Amazing! We ordered the assorted meat and cheese board and the board was HUGE with great quality meats and cheeses at a fair price. This made me super happy because where I'm from (Toronto), charcuterie boards for double what I paid at La Prosciutteria are a quarter of the size with lower quality meat and cheese. read more

It was alright, but I was expecting more. Paninis could be grilled, but that can be just my opinion. Not a big fan of the menu style and the not really comfortable seats. read more

Omg amazing! First of all the loud Beyoncé music-AMAZING and FUN! The staff was friendly and helpful. The restaurant is very small so I had a bit of a wait but it was worth it. It's right by the Trevi Fountain as well. I got the 10 Euro board which was perfect for the solo traveler like me. If definitely come back! read more

If you like charcuterie, great wine, good vibes, excellent service & a all around great time while in Rome... you won't go wrong with this place! read more

The service and food were excellent! To set expectations, this is not a restaurant. If you seek table service, this is not your place. The servers will be open and up front about this. We found this restaurant on Yelp seeking a place to enjoy a good Italian experience. The dining is almost entirely charcuterie style. If your a tourist who seeks a variety of cheese, meet, olives and other authentic Italian food, you've found your place. To order, you simply tell them how many people you are dining with, preferences if you have them (we asked them to surprise us) and they take care of the rest. Of course, you should order wine. We ordered a red pinot bottle for 18 Euro and enjoyed with our selection of meats and cheese. The portions are large, but remember, this is charcuterie style and if your starving, you should find a tourist trap restaurant (which there are many nearby). If you seek a great Italian experience, then this is your place. read more

Molto bene! Delicioso. And the people were so nice. Our first meal after landing in Rome. Highly recommend!

Incredible! I have recommended this place to all of my fellow study abroad friends!!!
