4.5/5 stars for me! My husband and I had a really great experience at this restaurant and became friends with the couple next to us. We started with a great salad and cacio e Pepe ravioli. For our mains we split the octopus and meatballs with a side of spinach. Gosh, I really loved everything and I'd return! read more

Let me preface my review by saying I'd normally award this a 4 (based on liquor menu), but giving it a 5 star based on comparison to other local restaurants. Overall we enjoyed the meal and ambiance, and was a breath of fresh air/taste compared to the typical Italian eateries around. Service was great--also a step out from others nearby. That said, we were disappointed by the lack of cocktails and white wine list, in addition to prices (7-9€ for a glass of white; 8-9€ for an aperol spritz). Pricing was middle range, and waiting times were ~1hr for a table, but worth the wait if you have time. For dinner we had the Truffle with pecorino crostini (partner loved; lots of truffle), cous cous with citrus and tuna (cold dish; great flavour; very fresh), cod with spinach (loved! Such great flavours) and panna cotta with berry compote (great taste and balance). Portions are very reasonable. The server was spot on in recommending how many dishes to order. Saved us from ordering far too much food! If you don't want to wait, I'd recommend going before 1900 or after 2100. Note they're open near all day long. Seating is very limited. read more

This is the most romantic restaurant my boyfriend and I went to in Italy. We walked quite a bit from our hotel to get here. When we walked up, I thought I walked into a scene from a painting. The outside of this restaurant was incredibly charming. It was covered in ivy, warmly lit, and had bikes sitting outside. The inside was great. It felt like we were in our own world. The seating is very limited, so it's a very intimate and quiet atmosphere. I honestly don't remember which bottle of wine we ordered, but it was delicious. We also ordered a meat and cheese plate. The most memorable part of the experience to me was the chocolate and cognac with enjoyed. You must visit this restaurant on your trip to Rome, especially at night. read more

I have passed by this restaurant when I was in Rome and we decided To try this place. The restaurant is very cozy and cute. Staff a d owner are very friendly and nice and the service was pretty good. I order the chicken salad And my husband ordered Mortadella crostini which is a bigger portion off bruschetta. The interesting part is that they don't use Mayo in their salad, instead they use the fresh greek yogurt. Their olives were to die for, which They brought in a small bowl before our meal with cuts of toasted bread and it's complementary. Definitely recommend this place for a casual lunch or dinner. The variAlso, it is Conveniently located in the middle of the whole Historical side of Rome, kinda close to Vaticano. If you are using City Sightseeing red bus, you need to get off at 6th station and walk to this place. read more

Best dinner in Rome! Everything was amazing and so thoughtfully executed. We had the scallop appetizer, which was the perfect small start and bursting with flavor from the scallop, whipped potato and candied orange. Next was pasta cacio de Pepe and the seafood linguine, both perfectly cooked and flavored. Then we had roasted baby pig whcih was delicious. The wait staff is very attentive and friendly. Highly recommend and would love to go back read more

Lovely local restaurant with a decent selection of wine and food a bit busy and under staffs.

My family of four (including two teenage girls) went here for lunch. We got a lovely bottle of wine, the meat plate and a separate cheese plate. It was a perfect amount for a light lunch. Everything was very tasty and the service was great! The waiter was very attentive. read more

I'm not sure if it was because it wasn't crowded (due to Covid) but when I booked a table for 6, I was shocked to see that we got a separate room to ourselves. It was a lovely, quiet dinner with just the 6 of us. The service and the food was spectacular! read more

Fantastic intimate choice for dinner and a glass of wine. Excellent service. Small dining room (only 6 tables). No reservations. Totally worth any wait you have to endure. Loved the food and the overall vibe of this spot. read more

My partner and I were wondering around central Rome looking for a good lunch place. After looking at several places, I saw this gem had very high reviews. To be clear though, this is not just a Wine Bar, it' is a bistro. They have amazing food! When you enter, you are first struck by the beauty of this relatively small space. There are tall tables and a bar area to eat at. Three women own the wine bar/restaurant and were running the place (and doing an amazing job). I don't think any are Italian, but rather they came to Rome to build this lovely place and seem to speak multiple languages. The wine list is extensive and 2 of the owners are sommeliers. I picked one of my favorite Lazio/Rome wines. They make awesome wines in that area of Italy, and we almost never see them here in California - usually what we see here are Tuscan or Venito/Venice area wines. Then onto food. I had the cold Tuna & Couscous and my partner had the Octopus. I need to post pictures of both of these as the dishes were beautifully made and presented. The meal wasn't particularly Italian, but that was okay as we'd been in Rome for many days during this trip. My partner said it was the best Octopus he'd had. It's worth mentioning they provided an amuse bouche (chef's free appetizer) for starters which was home made croutons and some lovely olives). We had espressos, but skipped ordering dessert. Nevertheless, when we finished up they provided a free dessert taste (a lovely creme & chocolate taste on a spoon for each of us). It just pushed the meal over the top. This is a beautiful restaurant and wine bar and well worth the stop if you are in central Rome. What they're doing here is awesome. read more

Honestly one of the best places we ate in Rome. The service was outstanding. We had the burrata and the cacio de pepe ravioli among other things. They were AMAZING. The prices are reasonable for the great quality. Make a reservation. It is worth the visit. read more

It's been over a year maybe two and I dream about this place. Excellent food, service and atmosphere. Looking forward to making it back to Rome for another fantastic evening at CiPasso. read more

Amazing wine & crostini's here! Our waitress selected our red wines for us, and they were outstanding! Beautiful restaurant and ambiance; along with excellent food and wine. Wish we had more time to come back here again. Highly recommend if you're looking for a local spot with a great wine list (not your basic Chianti or mediocre pastas) and a fresh, innovative food menu. read more

Wow, a real surprise! Excellent refined cuisine and excellent wines in a small cozy space. Highly recommended! We started with an excellent cheese and salami board, followed by a crostini with truffle that was out of this world. I had a cod dish with rucola and fermented lemon, very delicate and refined. My wife had a salad of raw zucchini that was similarly complex and intriguing. Five stars! read more

Located a few minutes away, slightly north, of the packed crowds of the Pantheon and Piazza Novana. The restaurant is on the small side but the atmosphere is perfect. The food was light and very flavorful. The staff was very helpful and spoke English well. We had no wait time at all. Best Tiramisu I have ever had. read more

Went here for dinner in late October. Despite off-season approaching and going to dinner much earlier than most Romans, there was a wait. While we were here, most other patrons were tourists, but that could have been the early dinner hour. The wait was well-worth it. We order the Ci-Passo board and a bottle of wine. The board was focused on Roman traditional meats and cheeses and the wine was delicious. The waitstaff was very friendly, attentive, and had several recommendations for us. read more

First time in Italy and YOU have to go! It's the cutest little spot with amazing food. The Lasagna is to die for and everyone speaks English really well. We had the lasagna of the day and the eggplant that was stuffed. IT WAS FIRE!! The service we received was so amazing and we will definitely be back again. I can't speak highly enough of the staff there. They made us feel welcomed and gave us an amazing experience. read more

Excellent drink and food. Staff is extremely pleasant and helpful in making wine selections. Recommend highly!

Very friendly and attentive staff and nice reasonably priced wine selection. We'll definitely be back.

Excellent atmosphere, good food, outstanding service. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner here. The place is very small and theres allways a wait (we waited for 30 minutes), but it is well worth it. read more
