Pretty good ambiance, host fit our group of three on short notice. Bread could've been better but the entrees made up for it. Rabbit and that sauce was to die for. The tagliatelle with boar was solid too. Bucatini was not bad but a slight bit salty. Lamb was good as well. Would've given 4 stars but was bribed with free dessert tart at the end. Every man has his price I guess... read more

Is there a 6 star button? This place was fantastic, server, decor, wine and the food. Make sure to start with the meat and cheese sampler, it's huge and offers a great array of selections. I had the pappardelle with boar ragout. We also had Cacio e pepe and a ravioli dish that was simply remarkable. Best meal so far in Rome. read more

The artichoke side is super. Pasta with eggplant cherry tomorrow tasted delicious. The ravioli with pumpkin inside is super tasty! Love this place! And it is inexpensive. read more

Wanted to take pictures by the Trevi Fountain after dark, so stopped at this gem for dinner first. Fantastic service-- worth the wait! My friend ordered the Caccio e Pepe and it was to die for. She wanted to take the rest to go, but it was accidentally thrown away... so they made her a fresh one! I had the pumpkin ravioli and it was seriously the best thing I've ever tasted. The house red was great and the desserts were also amazing. 10/10 read more

Had the prosciutto & melon and it was to die for. The melon was sweet and perfectly ripe. I also had the spaghetti carbonara as cliche as it is...it was still wonderful. It was a thicker sauce than I've ever had but great nonetheless. read more

We had dinner here twice and one night stopped in for drinks, dessert and coffee and each time the experience was superb. Moderately priced, excellent service and what really jumps out is the bread. Just like we got back in the day in the old neighborhood. Try the Carbonara, then come back the next night and try the Amatriciana, fantastic. An added attraction for you guys who love fine clothing is just steps away. Next door they carry some of the finest suits, jackets and leather goods you've ever seen. Oh so tempting, but definitely worth a look and maybe next year I'll step up and buy something. BTW, ask for our waiter Alessandro, he'll take care of your needs and speaks English pretty well. They are less than a five minute walk from the Trevi Fountain and many stores and gelato shops. Mangia bene! read more

Best food I have had for long time. The pizza and the lamb were great , all the other food around us was amazing. Must try .very reasonable prices. In the middle of the cities. read more

Wonderful Italian Cuisine and much better than the many tourist traps around Trevi Fountain. Great Pizza, Pasta and Wine and very nice staff. Tolle italienische Küche und viel besser als die vielen Touristenfallen rund um den Trevi Brunnen. Alles war lecker, die Pizza (knusperdünn und aromatisch), die Pasta und der Wein. Unsere Kellnerin war sehr freundlich und es war ein wunderbarer Abend. read more

So first, being American, it's not common for me to sit at long tables with total strangers. I thought it would be weird, and in fact it was a bit weird at first, but you get used to it. While we didn't converse with the people next to us, they were nice enough and said hello and then just went about their conversations. And second, being American, my expectations of service are a little different than what you end up getting in Europe. At busy times, they seat you and don't really bother with you unless you flag them over ... so I guess that's a cultural thing that I just need to get used to. Regardless, our waitress was efficient enough that it didn't bother me. She was pleasant and gave suggestions for buying a glass of wine (even though it's not in the menu anywhere). She also brought out the accoutrements with our food (i.e., the salt and pepper, the cheese, etc.) without being asked. The food was quite good. The bread was tasty, though be warned they charge you for it if you eat it. I'd recommend the cacio e pepe; a simple dish of pasta, butter, cheese and pepper, which is definitely greater than the sum of it's parts. It was simple, elegant and very flavorful. The gnocchi was also quite good; you could tell the sauce was fresh and it had nice flavor. They also brought Taking cue from other European eaters, we stretched the meal out to 1.5 hours and had a couple nice glasses of wine and enjoyed the hustle and bustle of a popular tourist street. Another plus was that it's very close to Trevi fountain, so you can make it an extra romantic evening with your sweetie by finishing up dinner and grabbing some gelato to savor at the fountain (with a thousand other people doing the same thing). read more

My wife and I had dinner here on our last night in Rome. It was recommended by our tour guide and she diid good. Food and wine were fantastic. Service could have been better. That is why I had to drop my rating to a 4. read more

Great food and wine list. Friendly staff. Superbe decor. we had a wonderful meal. Just minutes from trevi fountain. Not the topical touriste trap. read more

Had our last dinner in Italy here and honestly wished we came here sooner! The food was amazing, the service was great and the atmosphere really gives that authentic Italian vibe. Had the spinach and ricotta ravioli with truffle sauce while my boyfriend has the gnocchi with tomato and basil, and we both agree that it was the best we've ever had. We were also given freshly baked focaccia bread and my boyfriend absolutely loved it. Definitely recommend! read more

Patchy service, average food, better desserts! We sat on the extreme left table inside on the street level of the restaurant. Our initial server who was attentive and extremely polite left at some point after serving us the wine, water and mains. After that, there was a slim, uncourteous and inattentive server who took over who, after calling for her for desserts, the bill just didn't show up, she was busy cleaning and setting up tables for the next day! Amazing !!!! Sunday 26th June. However a clean shaven head server on request was awesome, he deserves to be the manager. He got us our dessert menus, swung into action for a quick tiramisu and even gave us a gratis portion of biscotti and raisin coffee cake as an apology. The guy at the billing counter at the beginning and at the end didn't care about the establishment! Wouldn't go there again! read more

Such a tourist trap. I wouldn't go here for good Italian food. Our waitress forgets a part of our order and our food came out lukewarm, not hot. I'm not impressed and I'm surprised so many yelpers rated this place so highly. Pass this place. There are better restaurants around. read more

So we are first time travelers to Rome and we found this place by reading the reviews on Yelp. We started with the pasta and each got a different type. My son got gnocchi and he loved it. My wife got the very thick spaghetti (forgot the name) and loved the sauce, the pasta was a little thick for her. I had some the pasta with boar meat, which I thought was the best of the 3. We all got steaks wife and son had the filets and I had the T- bone. The steaks were really good and the T-bone was huge, more like a porterhouse. We had the Chianti wine, 2 bottles and moscato for my wife. It was very affordable at $262 euros. read more

The baked lamb shank was disappointing... wine was good though. This place was also pricy, but not surprising since it's located in a busy tourism area. read more

They're a small spot so seating is very limited but if you can get a seat there the food is excellent and authentic! The espresso is one of the best in the city also! Prices are great and it's down the street from the Trevi Fountain so another bonus for location! read more

Just a super place don't let the tourist area turn you off this is heat heat food and service at reasonable price and will put a smile on your face. I might eat here my entire trip just fantastic read more

Great service. Food was great. Tiramisu was fantastic. Not overly sweet. Lots of wine options and the house wine was great. The atmosphere was great as well. We waited approximately 45 minutes for our table but Il Chianti was worth the wait. Great spot for dinner. read more

BEAUTIFUL, delicious, large indoor/outdoor restaurant located down the block from the Trevi Fountain. Service was great as they were extremely kind and attentive. Outdoor seating is lovely, all mostly in shade. We happened to sit at the only table directly in the sun, and they moved us inside with no problem. Plenty of indoor seating, as well. You'd be shocked at how big this place was from only looking outside. Ordered gnocchi with tomato sauce and basil. So simple yet so delicious. You could really taste the basil flavor in the sauce, and the sauce felt very light, as well. Decent portion size as well; probably could've been bigger, but I felt fine having had some bread first :). They did have a buffet inside that we did not partake in. Was not overly touristy, either; there were many Italians eating inside, which of course is a good sign. Nobody harassing you outside to come in either!! Genuinely good food and good service with a nice ambiance to top it all off. read more

Fabulous find what a wonderful meal we are gluten free and low carb and no sugar and were able to find a wonderful meal naturally made and fresh would recommend if you are at the fountains oh are steps away. read more

Service was ok. The food was superb. We had Pasta alla carbonara and Pasta all'amatriciana. They were fantastic. We tried a little piece of our friend's pizza, but we didn't like it too much. Maybe, we just get used to Texas style pizza (not New York nor Chicago) :D read more

The location was great and the restaurant was very charming, however my experience was not great. The restaurant was very busy, service and food was not what I expected. Food was not bad but it was not great...which is what I expected from a highly rated yelp recomendation. read more

Delicious meal in a wonderful setting near the Trevi fountain- food and service were authentic and wonderful. Our group of 6 headed here for a late meal on one of our last nights in Rome. The restaurant has a wonderful large courtyard with outdoor seating and the inside is decorated very nicely. We enjoyed several courses and several bottles of wine recommended by our server. We had a lovely long meal. Many restaurants in Rome can feel very touristy, but this place had a nice authentic feel to it which made it special. read more

Our first meal in Rome...we sat outside and it was great to relax and sip wine, people watching for a while after our flight in from the US. The pizza was outstanding- thin and crispy crust which we can NEVER find at home in Chicago. The salad was just better than average- Tomaine, Gorgonzola (cheese was outstanding of course) , pear, cinnamon and pine nuts. Light- and it was tasty. Lots of space indoors too. read more

We had a disappointing experience here. This is not the place to go if you enjoy authentic Italian food and hospitality. They charged per person for the bread! The food ranged from good (minestrone) to regrettable (basil ravioli). The service was also bad, but that was no fault of the server as he was doing the job of two people. The first star I gave was for the passable minestrone. The second star was for the location near the Trevi fountain. read more

Racist employees. My family and I (we are Mexican) came in and asked for a table. After waiting to be seated, we noticed the people that came after us were greeted with water and bread while we had to wait 20 minutes until we asked for a simple gesture of water. At least 4 waiters passed by and noticed nobody was attending us until again, we had to ask that we were ready to be served. During that time, those families (white people) who came after us had their food already given with extra refills of water. My family and I waited another hour to get our food given to us because again we had to ask. They excused it by saying that our food was longer since it was pasta but those families who came after us also ordered pasta...so it does not make since why we were given it last. Just completely rude and was given the worst customer service. My family was treated as if we weren't valuable enough to be given the same service. The colorism was really shown at this place. read more

Great service, great food, wonderful ambiance. Highly recommend if in Rome. There was so much food we had to cancel the 3rd course because we were stuffed and we shared the first two courses between two of us. read more

Food was so so, and the waiter's service is even worse. I think this is one of those tourist traps in this area.

Excellent service and delicious food. Our waiter was extremely courteous and answered all our questions patiently. The steak and pizza were delicious and so was their pasta. Their tiramisu was wonderful as well. The price seems extremely reasonable considering that they're located right next to the Trevi Fountain. The ambience, service, and food were all excellent! Very happy read more

This is a great restaurant. after almost 3 weeks in Italy myself and my wife were getting a little tired of eating out although generally everything we had was great. This restuarant however sticks out, just really good food and atmosphere. On my next stop in Rome, Iwill haed here first. read more

Loved the food at this restaurant which is a mere stone's throw from the Trevi fountain.

Like everyone else my girl and I looked at the yelp reviews and decided to give this place a shot. Well, that was a bad idea. First, we waited about 15 minutes for the server to deliver our drinks. Secondly, we waited another 45 minutes for our food to come out from the time the order was placed. After a few fork spoon bites of the food, we had finished whatever drink we had. I assumed the server would notice as they walked by, but never stopped and offered to replenish our drinks. We eventually signaled for more drinks and they acknowledged. It was another 20 minutes before the drinks were at our table. By that time, we had finished our food with our own saliva. The food was good and made us thinking for a second course dish, but opted out. We didn't feel like staying the whole night, especially with the folks waiting in line (in the rain) to get a table. Anywho, once we were done we noticed all the tables had water except ours. Maybe we had to ask? Who knows, but the next day, we tried another restaurant and it was the BEST. Water was even served without asking. Im also going to pretend like the other tables did not have more attention than ours. Good luck! read more

Good food. Ordered the margherita pizza €8, ravioli w/ spinach and ricotta in a truffle sauce €14, and the meatballs (beef) with peas €15. Everything tasted great, we got there late around 11 and were still served although a bit rushed to order because the kitchen was closing. Everything priced reasonably and service was good. Very cute outdoor seating, inside was nice and cool but ceiling fan made food a bit cold. read more

"Seriously awesome food in a tourist area!" The food at Il Chianti was so excellent, that we found ourselves here on THREE occasions during out three day trip. I had the Speck and Asiago Pizza, the Raviolis with spinach, and both types of Semi-freddo. The espresso was also especially good! Prices were very reasonable, even with the Trevi fountain only steps away. We were treated well, and given some "freebies" during our last visit. read more

Easily one of the best restaurants I've eaten in Rome. Right next to treviBnB, the place fills up quick during lunch. They had a lovely seating outside and an even more naturally sophisticated ambience in the inside . We were served immediately with friendly but not too friendly service due to our language barrier. Bread and water were charged which was a surprise to me however due to the deliciousness and enjoyment I would have paid for letting me sit there. The food was to die for. Their lasagna sauce was an absolute delight in my mouth, and reminded my American ass how far even the most expensive Italian restaurants in nyc are from true Italian. Serving size was a little small but the volume of the taste makes up for it. The plates of meat and cheese gave my taste buds a workout. Everyone who's anyone has a reasonable wine list in Rome and they're no exception. This is the place you talk about when you say you want to eat out in Italy. Please do yourself a favor and try it. read more

Wonderful spot with great food, reasonably priced. Close to the Trevi fountain, but not a tourist trap. Great atmosphere, quaint decor, cute intimate spot with a few rooms of tables. Definitely recommend. Will return next time I'm in Rome. Nearly all customers were locals, but servers understand English well too for visitors. read more
