Nice place to recharge, ac really a plus. Staff is friendly, but not all speak English well. The fried mozarella balls were odd, you bite into it and half the cheese comes with it and you have a hollow other half. My son loved his gnocchi, calling it the best he's had. My wife had the shrimp risotto, it had a good shrimp flavor and pieces of shrimp through, including the head. I had the lasagna, good flavor, but I would have loved more meat. Worth a stop by. read more

L'Angoletto ai Musei - Spaghetti Bolognese - Seafood Near Me - Rome, RM

What a treasure this restaurant is, be sure to go here when visiting Rome. We found it our first night and it was so good we went back every night for dinner while we were in Rome. It is THAT good! And bonus, it was within a block or two of The Vatican and even closer to our hotel. The food is delicious and authentic. They offer a wide selection and we tried several dishes over the four days we were in the city. The service was beyond excellent. Dali (our primary server), Mina (assistant server) and Ms. Arbia the owner were all so very welcoming and friendly. They made us feel like regulars the first night we dined with them. Dali speaks English very well (certainly much better than my limited Italian) and Ms. Arbia and Mina speak English well enough that we had no problems with language at all. I highly recommend dining here for lunch or dinner. They offer both inside and outside dining options. It gives off a great neighborhood restaurant vibe. read more

I will not spoil this place's perfect record of 5 star reviews, it deserves it. Simple, quiet, peaceful getaway from the hustle of the streets around St. Peter's and the gift shops. Menu is reasonable as far as prices and selection go. You can split a bottle of wine or a bottle of local beer, share a pizza, but don't share the bruscetta. It's only enough for one. The interior is exactly what you would expect for a real Italian eatery, not fancy. Fancy is not better. Italians don't cut their pizza, by the way, so don't complain about that. They know a little English here but don't try to have a conversation. Know some Italian so you can sound normal. read more

If you see this place, please walk past it. The menu is full of pictures of food that isn't theirs, very clearly misrepresenting everything they serve. Catfishing to a tee. It's not worth the calories or the time. Two stars instead of one because the host was kind. read more

I'd say this restaurant is between a 3 and a 4 star. Seeing as it has so far been the only restaurant I've been to in Rome, I have nothing to compare it to. Jet lag got me good and we didn't venture out for food until 10pm. This place got our business simply because they are open late. Our waiter was not warm per say but I did not feel hated as a tourist. He understood our little bit of Italian and spoke enough English to understand us. Very much appreciated! We ordered a bottle of prosecco, lasagna for my husband and homemade ravioli for myself. I also ask for bread but the waiter either didn't understand, didn't hear me, ignored me or forgot. Either way I didn't stress over it. After the meal we shared dessert, a custard filled pie with pine nuts and powdered sugar. Our meal was decent. I wasn't a fan of the lasagna, I did not like the red sauce or the meat but the pasta itself was good. I enjoyed my meal but later found myself hungry. Probably just because I'm familiar with American-Italian portions. Here you have smaller portions but more courses. The ambiance was nice but nothing pretentious or fancy. Outdoor seating looked nice but it was too chilly the night we dined in. Our total came to 51 euro with the service fee (tip) included. read more

This was one of our best experiences in Italy. We came upon the restaurant accidentally after touring the Vatican. It is a very short walk from the Vatican, but really didn't seem like a tourist trap. The prices were fair, and there were Italians eating there and not just a ton of tourists (like us!). Everyone was really friendly, especially our waiter. I tried to ask him if I customize the antipasto place to include just certain grilled vegetables and olives. He didn't understand what I was asking and I didn't understand what he was saying, but he walked me right over to the beautiful antipasto display and had me point at what I wanted and he put it right on the plate with a big smile. He was wonderful! I had the Spaghetti al Pesto and it was the best Pesto I have ever had. I crave it to this day. It was slightly creamy without being cream based, and garlicky without being too much. It was incredible. My husband had the Margherita Pizza. He liked it, but he liked my Pesto better! I highly recommend making your way to L'Angoletto ai Musei. It was amazing. read more

L'Angoletto ai Musei - The yummy vegetarian antipasto! - Seafood Near Me - Rome, RM

Come to this restaurant according to the reviews. As a vegetable lover, I excitedly ordered the Vegetarian Antipasto, and basil spaghetti. Well, it is my bad that I didn't realize the review on the starter was made 2 YEARS ago. The vegetables now are pre-grilled and 【full of oil】, which are not special nor delicious and greasy as cheap Italian restaurant. The spaghetti was a little too salty for me, but it is fine as Italian dish are all a little too salty for me. However, the worst is the spaghetti was a little 【too hard than normal】. The overall flavor is ok, not outstanding. read more

An excellent place, very close to the Vatican museums, excellent prices and exceptional wine of the house! The pizza is also very tasty highly recommended! read more

Gotta agree with the others. Come here where the locals eat next to the Vatican. Large selection very reasonably priced. Numerous fish and meat choices among pastas and pizzas. We had excellent rabbit, chicken, Napoli pizza and loved it all! Guess what? Prosecco on tap, 8 Euro for a liter. What more could you ask for? read more

Average. Service was ok, food was ok. Nothing really special or stood out to me. The vegetable soup was just a slop of greens thrown in broth, not very good seasoning. The bruschetta was burnt with tomatoes and a ton of salt- terrible. Pizza was just ok. Of the 5 places I ate margarita pizza in the neighborhood this was my least favorite. The whole menu is pretty much seafood- if you like seafood- then great. I wish there was a bit more variety. I will not go back or recommend it. read more

Easy place to have a nice meal. Staff is friendly and do their best with English in case you don't speak too much Italian. Only disappointment was the "Ravioli alla crema di tartufo ".... Too much cream which surprised me when it was served. Pasta al pomodoro was very good. A solid place that is not so touristy even if close to Vatican . read more

It was a pretty good place. Close to the Vatican museum which is nice.It had good options with nice staff

Agree with Sarah. My wife and I have had two afternoon meals at L'Angoletto. Each meal was a delightful dining experience. The restaurant was recommended by our hotel, Alimandi Vaticano, also an excellent hotel. The first day we shared a caprese salad in which the tomatoes were sweet and succulent, direct from the nearby market! My wife had a vegetable soup she indicated reminded her of her Grandmother's and i had the best Spaghetti Carbonara i have ever tasted ( and i have tried lots!). The second day we split the Caprese again and also split a lasagna that was clearly homemade and fresh, delicate and feathery with a light tomato sauce. Having walked around the neighborhood we did not find any other restaurant with a menu similar to L'angoletto. so dinner tonight is an easy choice. the prices are excellent for the traveler's budget, the service comes with a smile and minimal English, and the wine is a great value. read more

Menu selection was wide. Has beef, lamb, pork, seafood. Ordered the scampi and it was delicious.

liked the Roma Saltimboca. relaxed atmosphere and fast and friendly service. Locals eat here, too. Prices resonable.

This place was awesome. Food was great and so was our waiter John Carlos. Very reasonably priced. We tried the pasta recommended by the waiter, bucatini all'amatriciana. It was a thick hollow noodle with a hearty sauce containing chunks of ham. Very flavorful. The ravioli was fresh made with a light cream sauce and large fresh mushrooms. House wine was a bargain at $4 half liter. The pizza looked amazing, but we did not order that. We will definitely try to return for the thin crust pizza. read more

very good pizza. good vegetable bar for adults. good service. great desserts like strawberries and whipped cream and gelato. only downside was (for kids) the smell of the pickled veggies read more

Ate lunch prior to going to the Vatican Calzone was lacking barely anything in it but the dough was fabulous. Fried stuffed olives we lacking flavor but dessert was great. read more

Excellent food and value. Took family of six and all had a great meal. Started with table sized antipasti and all items were fantastic. All entrees were great from pizza to oven baked fish and pasta dishes. Tiramisu was best in Rome to date. Service was excellent and dishes were hot and well timed. Highly recommended for around the Vatican area. read more

I accidentally came across this restaurant while looking for a place to eat, and at first it seemed nice but that changed very fast. To start off I ordered ravioli with mushrooms and upon first inspection, the serving was quite small. The taste did not make up for the small serving either as it was very bland and swamped in sauce. However the seconds is where everything really went down hill. I went with a pretty simple option and ordered sausages, and to my surprise, it was only two sausages on a nearly empty plate. For 2 sausages, 10 euros is pretty pricey. And once again the flavor did not make up for the very small serving. The sausages were tough, over cooked and reminded me of eating a leather belt that was way over salted. The servings were so small that I ended up needing to order more food. I ordered a mushroom pizza and since the restaurant said pizzeria on the sign I had high hopes that they would redeem themselves with an extraordinary pie. Instead I was greeted with a soggy mess that lacked flavor all together. Upon receiving the check I was shocked to find out that they charged for a basket of bread. Maybe it's just because I'm from the US but charging for bread just seems very stingy especially after an already overpriced meal. All in all I would never eat here again or recommend it to anyone. read more

We ha the ravioli which was very good, we also had the Osso Boco which wasnot good at all. The meat was tough and tasted old. The main reason we had a bad experience was the head man spent 45 minutes yelling at the help and wasconstantly complaining in a very loud voice to a friend of his. It really made the evening vey unpleasant. read more
