The food was a welcomed change from the standard pizza and pasta( did try the pasta) but the selection of meet was impeccable.

As we are bad tourists with poor command of Italian, the friendly servers translated the entire daily specials menu into English for us. They brought us a tasting of their house bread and impossibly rich olive oil, which we downed greedily. The homemade tortellini pasta was outstanding. The succulent chicken was well complemented by a thick lemon-ginger sauce, and the tri-tip was seasoned to perfection. Wine pours were generous. All dishes were very reasonably priced. I hesitated to try the tiramisu, worrying it would be the first letdown of the meal. It did not disappoint. With an artisanal mound of cocoa topping and a generous base of liquor, it was probably the best tiramisu I've had. This dinner made us regret leaving Italy all the more. I never expected to voluntarily plan a trip to Ciampino, but this place would bring us back.

Waitress ran us down outside after I left thinking we had overpaid because I had given her a €10 tip. I hope it wasn't insulting but she truly deserved it. She had limited English skills, still far better than my Italian, but was patient with us and curated the best restaurant meal of my life. Unless you have a lot of issues with seafood, come here without inhibition and eat whatever they serve you. You're in good hands.

As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by the friendly staff. When the waiter gave us the menu, we couldn't believe our eyes. The prices and the selections are considerably lower in comparison to the costs we saw while in Rome. We ordered the Bruschetta Al Pomodoro which was only €1, a Margherita €5, house wine, beer and for dessert we had Panna Cotta and Tiramisu. These were all simple items on the menu. We can't put into words how something so simple could be so delicious. You can taste the freshness of the ingredients with every bite. This location has been open for over 30 years, and it was clear to us why it's still popular today. It's definitely worth the trip!

Just a huge slab of steak but grilled to perfection. Get a table close to the kitchen and you can watch eveything being prepared by the very friendly and welcoming staff. This is in my view the best place to eat in Grottaferrata. Even if you're visiting Frascati 2km away, put this place on your must do list. Tell them Adam sent you. In fact I'll probably be there anyway :)

They also greeted us with some Prosecco drink when we came in.
