    When in Rome remember three things: pasta, pizza, and Peroni. We spent our last day in Rome shopping and found the Ciampini on the street leading to the Spanish Steps. We ate outside on the sidewalk tables. Pasta was excellent and finished the meal with Expresso and Tirimisu. It was a great ending to the day for us. We highly recommend this restaurant. They also were great in accommodating our daughter in a wheelchair.

    The extra star is for the wonderful waiter we had, he was smart, he was prompt and most importantly he made an effort to communicate even though we did not speak the same language. He was just wonderful. The food was so so and the ambiance was interesting, you won't be disappointed if you stop for a bite here.

    Margarita pizza, with tomato sauce.  #Rome

    Solid pizza decent service. I would visit again. Pizza was favorable and tasty. The crust was light (thin crust).

    We found this place after a day of shopping in the area. They have a great patio on the street with friendly english speaking waiting staff. I had the Alla Bolognese which was decent, but nothing amazing. The Pizza however is the star here and is what I would recommend. A very thin crusted, authentic Italian pizza. We first ordered the Quantro pizza and then followed up with another Marghertia once we started eating and realized how good it was. Another good sign seeing some locals coming for take out pizza throughout the night we were there.

    This bar/restaurant was a pleasant, random find during our strolls in Roma. We just needed a break from walking so we didn't order food. Although we just ordered beverages, we felt very welcome which would not be the case usually at any american bar. Not only did the waiter not make us feel uncomfortable for ordering just drinks, but he also brought out complimentary small bites (pizza) and pistachios. The people watching, and views of the spanish steps, rounded out this experience to be a superb one.

    This bistro offers a changing daily menu with fresh pastas that are simple and flavoursome and a selection of desserts. Have a look at the display case to see what's on offer to tempt you. Lovely spot to while away a few hours and people watch. Slightly expensive but given the location and lovely decor it's fair.

    This was one of the upscale fine dining restaurants that we went to in Rome. As soon as I walked…read moreinto the restaurant, it had elegant decors with dim lighting and a quiet atmosphere with soft music playing in the background. We ordered sea bass fillet rolled in zucchini and honey mushrooms. Fish was tender, soft, and delicious with great seasoning. We also ordered Ravioli with white truffles and it was delicious as well. Ravioli tasted like it was freshly made and it tasted great with truffles. Lastly, we got tiramisu for dessert. This tiramisu was prepared by an artist. Just by looking at the dish, it was very pretty to look at. It was presented on a beautiful plate with thin chocolate cookie on top with sugar decoration and underneath was a creamy white tiramisu. I loved this dish because it was unique dessert with great sweet flavor and great presentation. The service was excellent. Everyone was friendly with great attitude and they are attentive. I think they liked the look on my face every time they brought out the dishes because their presentation was great. Whoever was the Chef that night, I would give him or her an award. This restaurant was unique just like Rome. Highly recommended!

    My husband and I arrived in Rome on a Thursday afternoon from Wisconsin, and our first dinner…read moreexperience was at Ristorante Ad Hoc. We opted for the Roman-style cuisine tasting menu with wine pairings. The service was warm and welcoming, and the ambiance was quiet and romantic. I appreciated the decor, especially the various wine bottles displayed throughout, and I also liked the dishes the food was served on. That said, this restaurant leaned a little too "foodie" for my taste. I also discovered that I really dislike truffles! My husband, on the other hand, enjoyed everything--including my leftovers. The wines were fantastic across the board. I also want to mention the pricing was shockingly affordable for what we got at dinner, which again, included the wine pairing. If you consider yourself a foodie and enjoy creative, thoughtfully prepared dishes, Ristorante Ad Hoc is worth a visit.

    I love this place! My family and I got multiple sandwiches and shared them all. We got a big…read moreplatter of food that was big enough to feed 10 people! Our sandwiches were cut in half and one half was big enough to make the average person full. We got five sandwiches for only about €30! The place was not a tourist trap, but i have to say, the seats at the booth were uncomfortable to me, and the place was a bit small. Sorry i do not have photos. But overall, I would recommend to go here. Amo questo posto! Io e la mia famiglia abbiamo preso diversi panini e li abbiamo condivisi tutti. Abbiamo preso un grande piatto di cibo che era abbastanza grande da sfamare 10 persone! I nostri panini erano tagliati a metà e una metà era sufficiente per saziare una persona media. Abbiamo preso cinque panini per solo circa 30€! Il posto non era una trappola per turisti, ma devo dire che i sedili nel booth (il tavolo con divanetti) erano scomodi per me, e il locale era un po' piccolo. Scusate se non ho foto. Ma nel complesso, lo consiglierei di andarci.

    This place was so incredible, we went TWICE during our 3 day stay in Rome!…read more We had tried the other "super famous" Italian sandwich spot earlier in our trip and it did NOT deliver. Pane e Salame, however, was delicious!!!! On our first day in Rome, my husband and I decided to search for a lunch spot nearby (we were staying near the Trevi fountain), and I found this place had pretty good reviews. We got there about an hour after it opened and requested a seat outdoors. They have a tiny patio across from their entrance, but they fit quite a bit of people in it! We initially wanted to order two sandwiches to try more items, but I'm glad we just shared one - they were big and filling! We also had the small charcuterie board to share which was plenty of food for us both. We shared a bottle of rose, and all in all, we paid under $50 (usd) - what a steal! This was the perfect first meal in Rome. The food was incredibly fresh, the service was great, and the outdoor seating allowed us to experience the streets of Rome. 10/10 - would absolutely go back.
