Best lasagna I've ever had! And if you're looking for a quick lunch spot - they got us in and out of there in 20 minutes. Looking forward to eating there again and trying more dishes! read more

Delicious Pasta in Rome! Yelp is not with a massive presence internationally, but this place was fantastic. There are obviously some restaurants that are tourist traps in Rome, but the food is usually good. This restaurant was tasty and a great meal to have while in Rome! read more

Exceptionally positive experience. The food was solid and delicious. Cacio e Pepe was prepared as you'd expect it to be and not overly salty with a great taste. I'd recommend one of the four Roman dishes on their menu. The ambiance was fantastic small seating area with warm feeling quick service and food was hot and delicious. We have it down as one restaurant to come to for sure if in the area. read more

Fraschetteria - The outside - Roman Near Me - Rome, RM

Wow! What a wonderful lunch experience. A delicious aroma hits you as soon as you walk in and go down a few stairs. The staff is more than friendly and accommodating. We started with some organic white wine and Caprese. The waiter added some prosciutto to it because we requested prosciutto and figs, but they were out of figs. We both had the Carbonara as our main and it was perfect. We finished with pistachio Tiramisu which was one of a kind. read more

Very much enjoyed Fabio's hospitality. Really small restaurant, worth the wait, or better yet, make a rezie (on The Fork). Everything is delish. The place is loaded with heartwarming charm. read more

Fraschetteria was a literal dream in the midst of touristy Rome. We could not tell which restaurants were good or not UNTIL we walked in and saw how small the restaurant was. You definitely need to make a reservation; we saw many parties get turned away while we were dining. Every item that we had was wonderful. I don't think you can go wrong with anything on this menu. We started with a really great Bruschette that was full of salami and drizzled with truffle honey. The Carbonara & Lasagne were great. The Porchetta was possibly the best meat I've eaten in all of Italy, you HAVE to get it if you come. Service was really great as well! Just be aware that you have to go down a pretty narrow staircase and that the tables are all close together. read more

Fabio was lovely and rushing around trying to accommodate everyone. The place is small and no frills, but cute. (The bathroom could use an upgrade). Food was delicious - prosciutto e melone, carbonara, lasagna, caprese, salads. As others have said, it's a nice change from the super touristy spots. Recommend! read more

YEAH this restaurant is that good. Very much a hidden gem for the Romans and a bit off the beaten path. Stopped in for dinner on our first night in Rome and had a reservation so we were seated within 10 mins. The inside is tiny, so if you're dropping by without a reservation, be prepared to wait. :) We ordered the proscuitto and melon with a balsamic glaze, a couple of aperol spritzes and bread was brought out as well to kick us off. Everything had such complex flavors and a full-bodied flavor palette, it was easily the best proscuitto I've ever had and definitely the best on my two-week European excursion (and we ate A LOT of proscuitto over those two weeks). We also ordered carbonara and lasagna both of which warmed me up from the inside out and made me feel like I was dining at Nonna's. I also ordered an espresso and the espresso abroad is just SO MUCH BETTER. Staff were super quick and excellent, especially by European/Italian standards where sitting for a while over a meal is the expectation. The interior is also so cute with wine boxes on the walls and little mom and pop touches throughout. On top of that the plating and presentation were super memorable. An extremely memorable dinner and we will be back next time we're in Roma. read more

After a visit to piazza Bernini we hurriedly found fraschetteria and they let us sit 45 mins before closing. Hands down one of the best meals we had in Rome, the amatraciana, incredible salad and bread!! Super cool, downstairs, very authentic. So cute, don't miss. read more

If you're reading this review, it's not by chance. You're probably searching for the best restaurants in Rome -- and if you hadn't stumbled upon this review, you might never have found this place. Fraschetteria Roma isn't easy to spot, and it's not on a street you'd typically find yourself walking down. But trust me -- you're lucky you did. This tiny restaurant, with barely eight tables, served some of the best Italian food I've ever had. Every dish felt authentic and perfectly balanced, like it came straight from someone's home kitchen ...it might have. The flavors were rich but never heavy, the ingredients fresh, and the service warm and genuine. It's the kind of experience that reminds you why you travel -- to find places like this. No fancy décor, no gimmicks, just real Italian cooking from good people. Truly unexpected, and absolutely unforgettable. read more

If there is one restaurant you need to go to during your visit to Rome, come here. Without a doubt, this was the best food I have ever had in my life. This restaurant is very small, so you should definitely make a reservation ahead of time. There are very few tables so it will be tight, but it is so beyond worth it. The service is excellent and the staff is very friendly. You could tell that the staff was passionate about the food. The food came out piping hot and all of the pasta was fresh and homemade. The pasta was so good, that we ordered a second round. The lasagna literally moved me to tears it was that unreal. Please take my advice and do not skip this restaurant! read more

We tried to make reservations here just befire Christmas, but there was no room at this inn. So we asked for reservations for the next night. When we arrived we saw a happy group inside the door and down some stairs. It's a tight space and probably not for anyone handicapped. We were seated for our 8pm reservation instantly. We were given home made breadsticks and bruschette which were delicious. I ordered a zuppa di fagioli which was warming and delicious. My husband got spinach parmagiano. His goal was to leave room first their justifiablly famous spaghetti alla carbonara. I got the lasagna. They were both perfect. We had biscotti for desert. Then the staff all came out to thank us and wish us a happy visit to our favorite city. read more

THIS RESTAURANT IS A MUST. Stumbled across this thanks to Yelp. I was in my last day of a work trip and had been eager to make my last evening count. I knew I was in the midst of touristy chaff and was desperate not to fumble dinner. What a total sleeper gem. Unassuming, tucked off a Via Vittorio Veneto, just around the corner of a small street, blink and you'd miss it, is this six table slice of Roma in a walk down. Price is unbeatable. Service is on point. An absolute masterclass in simplicity and restraint. I had the bruschetta pomodoro, Tagliatelle with mushrooms and truffles, house made tiramisu with espresso, and two glasses of white (which I ultimately bought a bottle to go home). I only wished I wasn't dining solo so I could have tried more. But, I will say that dining solo was my saving grace to get a table quickly. This was one of my top five meals to date. read more

Everything you could hope to find in a restaurant in a foreign city (for us). It is a tiny place, maybe 18 seats. Reservations are highly recommended. We didn't have them and found ourselves waiting outside though we arrived just after they opened. We had a nice chat with two other couples who were also waiting, one from Germany and one from Russia. That being said this is NOT a tourist trap kind of place. It is situated below street level on a small side street and was so much better than the touristy places on the main street a few steps away. The kitchen is on full display, and it had great food (Cacio e Pepe and Carbonara) coming out of it. Fresh and creamy and importantly for me...filling....Service was excellent. Probably the single best meal we had in two weeks over in Europe on a cruise with bookended stays in Rome and Athens. read more

This place is amazing! We tried the Cacio e Pepe with truffles and the Carbonara -- both were delicious. The best way to end the meal was with their homemade tiramisu. Absolutely incredible! Also very cozy and cute. The guys are very serviceable too. read more

Tiny gem of a restaurant tucked in a side street in the XX September neighborhood. Steep stairs going down from the street so accessibility is limited for those needing it. Extensive menu with delicious choices for appetizers, pasta, first, second courses, drinks, salad and dessert. Staff is small but service is polite and speedy. When I was there it quickly filled up with one person willing to dine on the stair landing so that says something. Seats about 25-30. Short walk to Trevi Fountain, 15 minutes or so. read more

This little gem serves some of the best food we've ever eaten in Rome. And if you're not familiar with this location, it's easy to walk right past the door! We were welcomed by the chef's wife who was also the person to deliver her husband's delicious food. The panzanella salad was incredible as well as the multiple pasta dishes we tasted. There are only about ten tables giving this place a very comfy feel. It's worth the wait if you have to! We will be returning here read more

Tried this place based on recent Yelp reviews praising the food and rating it as a 4.8 with lines out the door. Our experience was not as good. The carbonara lacked taste and was average at best. The noodles used were as large as udon in diameter. The Cacio e pepe was equally below average. There were extra additions to our tab like 5 euros for 2 pieces of bread, an olive and a cracker. 2 glasses of wine and a strange Caesar salad brought our tab up to $90. On the plus side, the service was good and it was conveniently located near our hotel. read more

Amazing food! Really small inside. The food was so delicious and the service was so quick. They bring out the pasta as soon as it's ready. Probably the best pasta we ate in Rome. Would definitely go back 100 times over read more

Sat late. Took a while for us to sit. After sat, lookout. Caprese was awesome. Served with pistachio on top. Nice touch. Fresh as can be. We ordered a bunch of pasta. Cacio Pepe with truffle. One of the best pasta dishes I have ever had. Cannot believe how good it is. Eggplant parm is fresh, nothing like US eggplant parm. Not fried. Great flavor. Sauce is excellent. Tried my son's amitriciana. Incredible. The cacio Pepe with truffle is just a truly elite dish. read more

On our 4th day in Rome we still hadn't had food that we would consider excellent, until this restaurant. It was fabulous start to finish. We started with black truffle bruschetta with Parmesan shavings. Next the lasagna- melt in your mouth delicious, followed by pork with a side of spinach- both prepared perfectly. We finished with tiramisu and a delicious cookie you dip into wine. Would highly recommend!! read more

When we arrived they had started construction so they were no longer serving food, just drinks. But the reviews were so good we went back a few days later for some drinks. Yes, it is a wine/liquor store. But the owner is so nice and friendly he sat us down at the small table out front and served us wine and a board of delicious Prosciutto. Glad we came by. If you are staying in the apartments near by you should stop in. read more
