    Overall 7/10. My partner and I got the burrata and bread as an appetizer, I would give it a 5/10. The tomatoes were fresh and juicy but the burrata was a bit thick (referring to the outer aspect). Also the bread was a bit tough. The amatriciana was good, but not worth a 2 hour wait in a line, 7.5/10. Pasta was perfectly al dente, but the sauce wasn't anything to die for. I think you can get a very similar possibly better pasta in Rome without the wait. My girlfriend got the gnocchi pasta, which she said was a 7/10. The gnocchi was great, but again the sauce wasn't anything special Tiramisu, 10/10. This was amazing. It was sweet without being overpowering. The ladyfingers weren't soggy, and had that strong espresso taste. I would come back here just for this dessert. Also if you don't like cramped spaces, probably not the best spot. I could hear the people next to me better than I could hear the person across me haha.

    While we waited in line, we were able to place a drink order and once seated, we did see some tables with chairs very close together that if you were one of the unfortunate souls that were between tables - it will be hard to leave your seat. I have had better cacio e pepe but my husband loved the amatriciana. We shared the tiramisu which was very delicious. It was cool to check out, but with so many options in Trastevere, definitely a one and done.

    The BEST meal I had in Italy. This place is unreal. There is always a line so be sure to arrive 30 minutes before they open to be seated right away. They do have a bartender taking orders for drinks while you wait in line which is nice. A must order is their burrata with marinated tomatoes, I will be dreaming about going back for this for a while. We also ordered 3 pastas because we had to try them all; cacio e pepe, carbonara, and amatriciana. All of them were phenomenal. I would come back to Rome just for this meal.

    The carbonara and the strawberry with mascarpone was delicious and service was excellent. We waited an hour to get a table but it was a lively line on a pretty, cobbled Italian street. A waiter came out and served beverages to those waiting in line. We had an Aperol spritz and beer while we waited. My only complaint was the pasta was a little crunchy in my cacio e pepe. The sauce was yummy and I ate it all anyway. I would not order it again, though.

    The BEST meal I had in Rome. Yes there's a lot of hype around it but the dish I had did it for me and I would eat it all the time if I could! The Burrata was DELICIOUS. My favorite dish was their AMATRICIANA. I had this dish multiple times in Rome and daEnzo does it the best! I never knew I would like pork cheek... anyways. I also had their artichoke Roman style and Jewish style, you can't go wrong either way. And I topped it off with their Tiramisu- WELL DONE! The line gets long, but I would say it's worth the 45-60 min wait and your food comes quickly. Until next time!

    There was something online that said you should eat here if this was your last meal on earth. It was pretty close and this is my new favorite restaurant in Rome! Nothing too fancy, just good fresh food! No reservations, so you wait in line. It was raining and not as terrible as it sounds. We came in for a later lunch so there was a line but only a handful of groups ahead of us. The wait wasn't too long and they kept the line moving. The staff was nice and able to seat 8 of us at one table. We kind of over-ordered but didn't regret it. I heard the bread starter was good but I only got one piece from the two orders as the teens were hungry. We also ordered the olive oil as it was not included. The burrata was beautiful and the tomatoes were SO fresh. And get more artichokes than you think you should have. I devoured one by myself. Lots of wine and lemonade was a treat and added to the meal. Our pasta dishes were so good and I don't think we had one piece left on our plates. The meatballs were kind of expensive for what you get and we probably wouldn't order that again because the pasta was the star. We had to share the tiramisu dessert...we ordered one for two people to share...it was perfect as them come in the same glass as your water glass - so you can see the size. If you are in the area, don't get deterred by the line...stop in because it is worth it.

    If you're looking for a pasta spot in Rome that's worth waiting in line for, this is the place. We got the Carbonara and Amatriciana -- both were super delicious. Their pasta is unlike any place I've tried, and the guanciale had amazing flavors and the perfect amount of crisp. As for the wait, we arrived around 7:30 pm on a Thursday and got seated at 9 pm. We were luckily seated inside (it was a bit cold) and got a table separated from the rest, which was nice since it's a bit tight in there. The service was also great and the pasta came out after 10-15 minutes of ordering.

    Amatriciana. Awesome!

    Da Enzo was our best meal in Rome. Worth the wait, and lived up to the hype. You'd think in Rome you could find great Roman pasta anywhere - not so on our recent trip, but Da Enzo was the real deal. We showed up right at opening time and had an hour wait. The place is quaint, but very small, and we had been warned about the wait. It went by fast, as the courteous staff comes out to take drink orders, and we passed the time with other guests in line. Once inside, however, the staff was right down to business. We had a meatball appetizer, and I got Amatriciana. Both were great, as was the bread. The Amatriciana was done perfectly, with al dente pasta and the guanciale nice and crisp. We got tee shirts to commemorate the great experience! A really great place.

    Carbonara was easily a 15/10

    As a picky eater, this pasta in my 28 years of living is the only plate of pasta I have ever completely cleared and would've been ready to have 2-4 plates more of it. I ordered the arancini, carbonara, and a tiramisu and my family and I have all discussed how we would simply fly back to Rome for the soul purpose of going back for another serving. I know the line down alleyway can be intimidating but I promise you, it is more than worth the wait! Whether you are going for lunch for dinner the food, the service, the ambiance, and the ability still stands true!

    The couple in the far corner took my table after I sat down because they were more important than me

    This was my first dinner in Italy and it was very upsetting in many ways. I got there at 6:45 and there was a two hour wait. That's fine. I'm so tired but I'll persevere for what people say is the best restaurant in trestavere. Once I got 2/3rd of the way down the line they came by to take drink orders. I got an aperol spritz which was delicious and quite strong especially on an empty stomach. When I was like 4/5th of the way down the line they asked if I wanted to sit with another solo diner and I refused. Appreciate the thought but I already waited so long and was so close to getting my own table. Then I finally miraculously get seated. Waiter asks if I want still or sparkling, I say still. Then all of a sudden, the host who sat me down came back and told me to get back to the front of the line - there was a mistake. I see a fancy white couple get seated where I was. I didn't see them waiting in line at all. Then I see the owner chitchatting with them. So that must mean they get special treatment, and they matter more than a paying customer who waited 2 hours in line jetlagged and tired from touring all day. This put a bitter taste in my mouth but I didn't want to cause a scene so I stayed polite and meek. Then the cherry on top was my carbonara took literally 45 minutes to come out. No apologies for the delay, no explanation. I was so drunk off my wine by that point. I just wish I could have enjoyed my tasty food without all these negative experiences. I will never come back, no food is worth feeling so little.

    Tiramisu
    Cheryl L.

    Da-LINE! It was at least an hour wait, but was it worth it? It depends. Personally, the Al dente was a bit toothy for my taste. We had the carbonara, fettuccine fava bean (special), shaved artichoke salad (special) and tiramisu. Everything was fresh and tasty. The standout was definitely the tiramisu. It was light and creamy. Overall, is it the best place to eat? I say, it was good, but it wasn't the BEST Italian restaurant on our trip. Note that there was an American woman who heckled us in the crowd for waiting in the long line because she said that there are the restaurants with the same quality of food without the line. After eating there, I would have to agree. I think the reason why it's so busy is because they feature it on food tours in Italy. Also, it is heavily on Instagram and another social media platforms. There is a way to make a reservations so you don't have to wait in the long line however I didn't know about it so I ended up being a line warrior. Seating inside is very cramped. Seating outside is a little bit bit more spacious however, if you're like me from California, you might have to contend with the cigarette smoke being puffed on your food.

    Came here because of multiple recommendations but it didn't live up to the hype. We were in line 20 minutes, which wasn't that bad. They offer drinks while you wait in line. Once seated, we presented the staff with allergies of someone in our group. They said they couldn't accommodate allergy restrictions and made that person sign a waiver. Food was average but ox tail was very good. I don't know if I'll be back to try other dishes but glad I made it. I liked it but it didn't live up to the hype. They have outside and inside dining which was great. They had good service.

    We stumbled upon this gem in Rome and, like many others, found ourselves in a long line to get in -- but trust me, it was absolutely worth the wait. The staff made the experience more pleasant by offering beverages while we waited, a thoughtful touch that set the tone for the evening. Once seated, everything clicked into place: efficient service, warm hospitality, and the kind of cozy patio ambiance that makes you want to linger over your meal. I ordered the Cacio e Pepe, which was rich, perfectly creamy, and expertly balanced -- everything you hope for in this classic Roman dish. My husband chose the Carbonara, and he couldn't stop raving. In fact, he called it the best meal of our entire trip. High praise, and completely deserved. We finished the evening with a tiramisu that was light, flavorful, and the perfect end to the meal. If you're visiting Rome, carve out time to eat here. The line moves quickly, the food is exceptional, and the experience is quintessentially Roman.

    Review # 1200 After…read moresome shopping on the Via cola Di Riemzo, we were ready for lunch. This spot was a Yelp find. We arrived just before they opened at 12:30. We asked for a table outside and the kind lady asked us if we had a reservation (oh oh). We didn't. No problem as we took our pick of one of the tables. Two levels inside with a small Bar in the back. Before we knew it, outside seating was full and inside also filled up-a good sign. We ordered a liter (ended up being too much but when in Rome...) of their house Red and enjoyed it. For starters, we ordered the Fried Artichokes (thick breading and will order the Roman style with garlic/vinegar next time), fried Zucchini and Suppli-Cacio Pepe. The Suppli was delicious and was enjoyed the most. For main, it was Pasta Carbonara (Guanciale )-Proper carbonara and the streak of not having a bad version of this dish in Rome continues. The sliced Beef with mushrooms was also delicious -super tender and thin pieces of beef (medium rare as requested). We asked if the Tiramisu was house-made. Our server answered, "yes, and I am the one who makes it." How could we not order after that?! One of the best Tiramisus we've had. Perfect balance of coffee dipped lady fingers with cream-delicious! Our Server was kind, attentive and full of hustle -she was covering a lot of ground. Don't miss this Gem if you are in the Prati district.

I had possibly the most amazing chick food pasta a girl could imagine. Girls know what girl food is. The pasta in Italy is just better -obviously. But then put all sorts of girl flavors on it like Lemon and Orange, just lightly enough, zest with a small hint of cheese-..... omgosh. Yes, yes, and yes. Need my hubs to replicate at home. He is going to be busy trying to perfect this. Tagliatelle with orange and lemon parmesan. This was it. It was the best. Everything else we ordered was amazing as well. Wait outside. They don't have a sign telling you to wait, no server telling you to wait. You wait out there, wondering if you're in the right place, but then people stand behind you and you're like - oh! I'm here. This is the place. There are possibly 4 tables inside. It's small. I read about them being rude- we did not have that problem. In fact, they made a mistake and we kindly let them know we ordered something else- they corrected it and were nice about it.

So happy we did as this place definitely delivers. There is seriously like 8 tables in the dining room so expect a wait in line but trust me, it's worth it. We waited outside for about 25 minutes. They do take your order while in line so the wait for food (once you do get a table) is abbreviated. Out of the world pastas and the pistachio tiramisu is seriously out of this world. Inexpensive table wine rounds out a great meal. This is the type of place I love to go to. It's quaint, zero pretense and delivers on its food. A great find!
