We tried walking in first, but they were closing after lunch and shut down between lunch and dinner, so we booked a reservation for a couple days later. We visited in late February, and it felt a little less busy than usual, according to our waiter. We're from Los Angeles, and honestly, this ended up being one of our favorite meals in Rome. Everything we ate was delicious. We ordered the gnocchi with pork belly (the gnocchi was amazing). The pork belly was a bit too fatty for my personal taste, but my fiancé loved it. We also had a vegetable plate with a balsamic infusion that was so flavorful and beautifully done -- tomatoes, peppers, sun-dried tomatoes, artichokes, eggplant, onions -- everything tasted fresh and intentional. And the bread was excellent too. Ambiance is super cute and cozy! Overall, the food, quality, and experience totally lived up to the hype. I would absolutely recommend Roscioli and would 100% come back.

Kept seeing this restaurant pop up with local Italian chefs' recommendations. Feeling a bit tourist trappy but their food was oh-so-delightful. We started with the bread basket and a bottle of Chianti. Appetizers - Maialino del Chianti - slow cooked pulled pork with olives and pickled vegetables. It's a cold dish but the meat was tender and flavorful. Trippa della Tradizione Romana - Roman tripe stew. This was so tender and succulent, definitely a little tripe scenty for those who don't eat innards. Pastas - Tagliatella - tagliatelle tossed with hare ragu, dried porcini mushrooms and saffron. My first bunny dish ever. Amatriciana - traditional Roman dish but with gnocchi. We booked dining in the basement which worked out as the restroom was also in the basement/wine cellar. Highly recommend to give them a try. Great service as well!

It is off the main road, but just walking distance away from bus stops and the Balduina train station. The cannoli are a decent price and they taste great! I personally tried the pistachio flavor, while my friends tried a creme-like cannolo and a chocolate cannolo which they all enjoyed as well. The place itself is quite small, but what it lacks in square footage they gain by giving off a family-friendly vibe. They were also playing classic American 80s music, which was something that really stood out to me. I will definitely be back to try the other types of pastries and main dishes that they offer.
