So delicious! We wanted some last minute seafood for dinner and found this place on Yelp. As you…read moreknow here in Rome if a place has good yelp reviews you may end up finding a huge line. Thankfully we got super lucky and they had a table available and no wait. The menu is in Italian but they are more than willing to interpret and even have off the menu item. The servers are extremely friendly and helpful. My friend had the spaghetti with clams and I had an off the menu linguini with mixed seafood. It was sooo good. I highly recommend giving this place a try!

Our hotel manager had suggested another restaurant, but I was apprehensive to try, but did later, more on that restaurant review in it's own post. I rather did what I should have done throughout the trip to, which is to search google for local reviews. This tactic I found to be much better than to trust American reviews for restaurants to visit from Youtube or even here, just because the American touristy taste tends to favor bland or Olive Garden style pseudo Italian. The real Italian taste is much different and something one needs to develop. I was familiar with European Italian food, as I had said before in other reviews that Mexico has better Italian food outside of Italy. Additionally, the good restaurants here in Italy do not open before 7 PM. If it does or if someone that looks foreign to Italy is outside trying to lure you in, it's a tourist restaurant with iffy flavor. At this restaurant my husband had the Lobster pasta and I had the spinach/ricotta ravioli, and we both were beyond satisfied. We also had the artichoke as an appetizer, and trusted the waiter with his suggestion for a bottle of wine. He must have been some genius because the wine went well with our meal. The ambience was cozy and very family oriented, however, the rain outside made it romantic for us. Another key point for this restaurant and it traditional flare was that they brought out the olive oil and red vinegar for our salad and of course olive oil for our wonderful home-made bread. I'm so glad we chose this place for those of us Americans who understand culinary cuisine.

I like everything about this place, even reading the menu was love at first sight. You can tell by…read morethe options that the chef was inspired to bring creativity to Italian classics, but without the redundant sophistication of more upscale establishments. I strongly recommend the octopus entree, the result of a laborious process aimed at keeping it soft inside and crispy outside. For a more decadent experience, the parmigiana of "pesce bandiera" is an absolute must, a bold choice vs. the more common pairing with tuna. If undecided, go for the grandiose appetizer tasting, a high-tea-esque tiered display of several different cold and hot delicacies. The main course items are all exquisite, with pastas hearkening back to the Neapolitan tradition (the scialatielli are excellent). I would also recommend the fried calamari, with shrimp and anchovies - this is how the dish should taste and look like, an almost invisible batter that enhances the flavor instead of covering it. If this is not a 5 star restaurant, I don't know what is. The ambience is nice, the service is friendly and attentive, the pricing is reasonable (but no Amex folks), even when you throw in the wine. For a night, forget the steaks and enjoy seafood in its most mouth-watering form.
