From an American: I came to Rome as the last leg of my trip to explore the history, but also to get…read morea taste of the local cuisine. This can be very difficult to do when traveling in any touristy city, and especially in Rome. I passed this restaurant/farmers market earlier in the day and noticed there were no signs/menus in English. There was nobody hustling me to come in and sit down. There was only one woman, who I believe is the owner, that speaks limited English but was very kind. I thought eureka, this is the place! Finally, after having tried dozens of restaurants throughout Italy, I found my favorite and most authentic Italian food (my limited knowledge leads me to believe it is native to this region). I came in for €10 Aperitivo around 17:30. The owner gave me a delectable plate of eggplant lasagna, sautéed greens and grilled vegetables, with a bread puff filled with vegetable pieces similar to the consistency of a hush puppy. I was floored. If you're looking to get a taste of local Italian cuisine while in Rome, this is the place. Could not have been more satisfied after trying Carbonara, Gnocchi, and pizza dishes cooked by foreigners and being subsequently begged to leave a tip which is not customary in Italian culture cuisine. I've said what I needed to say. Enjoy!

There's only a few seats (bar stools) available, but we came here in the early evening and had no problem grabbing two. This is definitely a local's spot tucked away on a quaint street in Trastevere. The owner is so friendly, he even explained the dishes of the day in English for us. It should be noted that they change their menu everyday, and it consists of mostly vegetarian and vegan options. It's locally sourced ingredients, and the chef creates the dishes based on the season's vegetables. There's also various local organic cheeses you can buy. We had several types of dishes: the artichoke and carrot lasagne, the herb and spinach balls, the spinach quiche, and freshly squeezed juices with different vegetables and fruits. We also tried the vegan chocolate and pear muffin it was fantastic and so fresh! There's also wine and beer, this place is just wonderful - will definitely be back before we leave!
