    Sage ravioli
    Heather P.

    Pasta was great. The restaurant was very nice-- clean and calm inside. Very enjoyable for dinner. We had wine recommendations from our server based on our pasta choices. Amatriciana had crispy pancetta on top, the best I found this trip. The ravioli was mouthwatering with a sage leave for presentation. Very pleased with our dinner. Reservation made a few hours earlier online. Very easy. But let's highlight the best part, Alfredo. I'm not sure if he is the manager or the owner or just an employee with a lot of heart. But you can tell he loves his job, he loves the restaurant, and he loves the guests. He chatted with each table. Personally delivered our limoncello and check. The food was great, but even if it was average we would still recommend eating here because he was wonderful.

    We came here for dinner on our first night in Rome with family. Since my mother can't eat seafood, she ordered the ribeye (Bistecca). Unfortunately, half of the steak was mostly fat and tendon, making it very chewy. I understand ribeye tends to be fattier, but the quality was disappointing. The server disagreed with my feedback, which made the experience even less pleasant. Overall, the dishes were average at best and overpriced. With so many excellent restaurants in Rome, I would not recommend this one.

    Fettuccine bolognese (closest bowl)

    Great last night in Rome meal. The weather was perfect and our meals were the same. Started with aperitivo and bruschetta (tomato, black olive, green olive, and spicy). Had the Bucatini all' Amatriciana and Fettuccine Bolognese for dinner. Finished with the best Tiramisu we've ever had.

    Salmon and Asparagus Risotto

    Lovely street side dining. Large portions abounds. We had Cacio cheese and pepper pasta, bolognese fettuccine and risotto with asparagus and salmon. We tried swordfish and also scaloppina and mushrooms. For dessert we had caramel panno cotta and tiramisu.

    Delicious, pasta, seafood, wonderful appetizers, and outstanding desserts. The wine selection was above the rest.

    The seafood pasta was delicious! I can't tell you the last time I have had such fresh seafood. The ambience was quaint and intimate. My husband and I enjoyed our 10 year anniversary at this beautiful spot.

    This was our first stop for food in Rome. It was close to the hotel and was empty so we were excited to be seated quickly. We started with a few appetizers that were great portions and didn't take up too much room. The entrees were good but didn't blow us away. Service was great. I think if you just need a quick bite to eat on the way out to Exploring the city, this place is perfect. Otherwise, the carbonara was subpar. Hoping to find better while we're here!

    We were looking for an authentic Italian restaurant with great wine selection- boy did we find a great place! Everyone loved their email and service was amazing.

    Sage Ravioli Perfecto!

    While there were many American customers and the prices were a bit high, it was not a tourist trap. We loved the food, the service, and the atmosphere. Alfredo was a wonderful host and the rest of the team was also friendly and service-oriented. They were not judgy if we inadvertently did something uncustomary for Italian culture (like having a cocktail with our meal instead of wine) making it a very comfortable experience.

    The food was excellent! The service was great. This place has a really nice ambiance, very laid back. The calamari was so fresh.

    Cacio de pepe and Diavalo pizza!
    Dani D.

    *Californian tourist, first time in Europe* Absolutely delightful cafe. We had a late lunch/early dinner here on a Sunday afternoon; not crowded and we got an intimate corner table outside. Our server was really nice and accommodating, much more attentive than other waiters we've had in Italy. The food was great--we had their bruschetta mix appetizer (comes with two traditional pieces of bruschetta, one chili flake variety, and two different olive paste ones), the cacio e pepe (so well done and perfectly portioned), and the Diavola pizza (yummy salami with the best crust I've had in Italy so far). No drinks, as we've been overdoing it with the spritzes on our trip! But the water here is crisp and cold. This spot is quiet and comfortable, even though there's some vehicle traffic through the street it's on. They were playing all Celine Dion songs the whole time we were there, so it's romantic too! I'm glad we came here.

    Carbonara
    Isabel O.

    This was our first stop in Rome! We were hangry and big bowls of pasta were all we needed. This carbonara was one of my favorite dishes here in Rome. Service was slow.

    Our first meal in Rome was here, and I'm so glad it was here. We arrived on Christmas Eve and…read morewanted a good meal. Our hotel manager had suggested another restaurant, but I was apprehensive to try, but did later, more on that restaurant review in it's own post. I rather did what I should have done throughout the trip to, which is to search google for local reviews. This tactic I found to be much better than to trust American reviews for restaurants to visit from Youtube or even here, just because the American touristy taste tends to favor bland or Olive Garden style pseudo Italian. The real Italian taste is much different and something one needs to develop. I was familiar with European Italian food, as I had said before in other reviews that Mexico has better Italian food outside of Italy. Additionally, the good restaurants here in Italy do not open before 7 PM. If it does or if someone that looks foreign to Italy is outside trying to lure you in, it's a tourist restaurant with iffy flavor. At this restaurant my husband had the Lobster pasta and I had the spinach/ricotta ravioli, and we both were beyond satisfied. We also had the artichoke as an appetizer, and trusted the waiter with his suggestion for a bottle of wine. He must have been some genius because the wine went well with our meal. The ambience was cozy and very family oriented, however, the rain outside made it romantic for us. Another key point for this restaurant and it traditional flare was that they brought out the olive oil and red vinegar for our salad and of course olive oil for our wonderful home-made bread. I'm so glad we chose this place for those of us Americans who understand culinary cuisine.

    Great first meal in Rome!…read more I loved my artichoke pasta dish with bacon, it was a daily special. The amaretto dessert was delicious! Carbonara was super al dente. Seafood risotto was fresh. Grilled radicchio was like stir fried. Dinner for 3 for 77 euros, impressively busy for a Tuesday night. Friendly staff, easy for English speakers. :)

    Super pizza place with a lot of other great stuff on the menu…read more I looked with envy at the other tables who were enjoying spectacular plates of spaghetti with mussels. * * * That said, my pizza was a grand slam home run. Many of their pizzas are quite elaborate With all sorts of exotic ingredients. I went super simple. Gorgonzola. Mozzarella. That's it. Just enough Mozzarella to cut the Gorgonzola and make for a good melt. * * * If you have never had a gorgonzola pizza, you have never lived. Just sayin'. * * * P.S. My lovely wife got a Norwegian salmon pizza. The Norwegian salmon was stacked up high on her pizza As if she was in the World Series of Poker and she was a big winner. I have never seen so much salmon on one plate. After our meal, I made a discreet phone call to the Norwegian embassy in Rome asking them if they still had any salmon left. The woman at the embassy assured me the Norwegian salmon supply was fine. That surprises me given all the salmon that was on my wife's pizza.

    Rome trip March 2025 This place was hella busy. There was…read morearound a 40 minute wait for inside dining. However, they had apparently started having dining "outside" which consisted of a few tables-for-two on the sidewalk. My brilliant wife came of with the idea of asking if we could just take two of those tables next to each other so she dined with one daughter and I the other. We probably looked a little funny as we got up to share plates between the table but hey, we were seated in 5 minutes. Car traffic wasn't too bad so that wasn't a distraction though it was amusing seeing delivery bikes coming and going sometimes even returning constantly to the restaurant. Clearly a very popular place. I have to hand it to our waiter, he did a fantastic job serving not just the outside but his inside assignments as well. Guy got his steps in for sure and yet he smiled and was kind through the evening. Not a sign of stress at all. Love that. Food-YUMMY! Since we were on separate tables I didn't my normal "Wait let me take a picture first!" moments lol. We got the Fried Mix to start off with which. I personally ordered a pasta carbonara and the daughter I was sitting with got a margherita pizza. My wife ordered the chicken which was thinly cut breaded chicken slices. I ordered a red (Montepulciano d'Abruzzo) to go along with my meal. Don't have all the foodie pictures because of our split tables but trust me it was all fantastic.
