    Yummmm!!! The best!!…read more My family is from Arpino!! The most amazing town you've never heard of or been to in Italy :) Mainly because we'd know about it If any English speaking tourists ever come through here! Most people can't speak it! And we know every single person in town!! So this!!! This restaurant!! It's been there!! Probably for all my every year visit for a good 12 years now! I only rave out it so much!! Built before Rome was built! 4000 years old castle! Cobble stone roads! One bar, one butcher shop, agriturissimos, best produce, magical place of everyone know when I visit town! :) I've never been out to a restaurant when I visit because we have families and they pretty much feed you 2 hours long breakfast, 4 hours lunches and 4 hours dinners!! It's a feast marathon!! And if we do go out, we go out to one place that grow everything on the property for my favorite: lamb!! Gnocchi! Etc!! It's a lavish 12-14 course meals!! Came here because we had that lavish lunch for 4 hours! And Italy was playing that night! Everyone wanted to go to a bar and eat sandwiches, salami! Of course! I need a pasta! So viola!! Made it to the only pizzeria in town!!! Almost didn't get to eat it since they were so busy!!! But wow!! The menu!! I love how small it was but also how big!! 6-8 types of pizza, one pasta!! One!! One steak, one something else. And a lot of fun desserts!! One very frustrated waitress!! 2 rooms full of customers!! It was perfect!!! Nobody ate pasta since we were all eating light!! Well except me! My pasta was AHMAZING!! It's just a tomato pasta!!! Plain and simple!! No nothing else!! And I actually finished my food for once!!! The house made peppers were the best part!!! I've never been so happy to not eat at home before!! Crazy!! And crazier thing!! I really don't have a clue how much anything cost here ever!! I can't buy or pay for a single thing whenever I'm here!! Not even a cup of coffee!! I'm never allowed!! My family takes care of everything. This one being a restaurant! I saw the prices!! It was a €6 pasta!!! €6!! I always come for a month here. I spent a whole month in Europe: from Paris to San Sebastián to Capri to all over Italy!! And this! €6 pasta was the most memorable pasta pomodoro in entire month!!!!! Best in all of May! June! And even now!! Shame I won't be able to go back! I mean! Homefood!! It was the best!! Oh and wine pour right out of their barrels!! Wine by weight!!!! €4 get you a goblet!!!!! :)

    Do NOT eat here. It's a SCAM! I've eaten in many places in Italy in the Napoli region. I've…read morenever seen any places that charge a 3.50 EURO per person sit-in fee. They don't tell you. If you did not look at your bill and start to wonder why it's so high, it is this hidden fee. You might wonder if this fee help at for anything free - absolutely not. You do not get anything free. You need to pay for water. There's no free bread or anything. When you ask them, they say it was on the menu and they don't show you where it is. Since they left a menu at the door, I then looked and it was in the second page in SMALL light orange letter on a GLOSSY white menu. You can barely read it but if you place around with the lighting ant holding the menu in different angles then you will see it. I read such awesome review by others so I want to try it. Don't believe the review about the pizza. You are simple paying for an overly expensive, glorified bread that barely has topics and cheese. See my pictures. The pizza is small and cost 30-50% more than other places. In some cases, I don't even know if you can call it a pizza. I should have know when it's prime dinner time and there's only one other table. I think the people who wrote the review stayed at the hotel that it's connected to and was too lazy to find found elsewhere. So they order a pizza and took it to their room.

    Our waiter Salvatore was absolutely amazing. Very attentive and gave us really great…read morerecommendations. This place is a little bit pricey, but also I feel as though it was worth it for our first time Europe travel. It's right outside of Pompeii at the exit , so knowing it was in a toy area we knew that we might be paying a little bit more for the food. But the service made up for everything, it seems as though it's very team service and a lot of the workers were helping us not just Salvatore. Overall, we had a really great experience and would be back.

    The old saying 'When in Rome' is all about doing things like the italians (maybe, I have no clue)…read moreand usually thats a-ok. Eating pizzas, pasta, dolci and drinking italian wine is great, there's no denying that. But once in a while, even when in the very centre of the Italian food empire, you just feel like something different! Smoke Ring is a new trendy american styled dinner with rustic interior and food court-ish styling. They play great american rock (Bruce Springsteen 'the Boss' is all over the place) and serve authentic pork and chicken BBQ with sides of coleslaw, baked beans and/or different sides of potato. You can get yourself a great local beer or the imported stuff, it's up to you to find your favorite amongst a decent selection. Give 'when in Rome' a nuance, try this

    I just couldn't help myself. Rome is a pretty diverse city and seemed as good a place as any to…read moretry BBQ. I live in the US and as you'll see from my reviews, I love BBQ! All-in-all, this place is different but pretty good! Prices were also good - they basically charge by the rib or piece of chicken. What we ordered: Ribs, chicken thighs, wings and BBQ beans. Verdict: The Ribs were absolutely the best. HUGE and well smoked. They don't really need BBQ sauce, but it makes a good addition. The BBQ sauce is light and different but surprisingly tasty. The chicken was pretty decent. If you want chicken, it'll do the job just fine, but I'd focus on the ribs. The beans were very different, but also pretty good. I'd definitely come back here if I'm in Rome again.
