What used to be one of the greatest Italian food shops in the world (no kidding) has now been…read moreconverted into a sort of a highly expensive appetizer bar with bistro tables. Nearly all of the gourmet food products have been removed, so this absolutely is not a place to go food shopping as there are far better places in Rome to shop for excellent cheese and meats. It is an absolute shame that this wonderful shop has been ruined. All the wonderful employees are gone. What were they thinking??? People from all over Rome and the world used to come here for the most prized food products from around Italy. Now, there is essentially no reason to come here. Shame!!!!
What an amazing deli/market. I have never seen the like! You can stop for a phenomenal sandwich…read morewith freshly sliced meat, cheese and bread for around five euros. Not to mention the high-end shopping. We had an amazing exploration of 5, 10 and 15 year old balsamic vinegars (10 being the best with meats and 15 - ice cream topping - sorry, not sorry) I can not say enough about this neighborhood deli but if you are here and you miss it....totally your loss! Bottom line: go, go, go!

We thought it would a mediocre cheese board like the ones we've been getting in the USA. When the owner brought the cheese board to us, we were blown away. This guy is passionate about his food.

BEST pizza I had in all of Rome (and we tried 7 different places give or take)... with a great litany of options and etc. (get the buffalo cheese).

Amazing beer selection options This is what I imagine Italy to be... fun, family like inviting atmosphere, and delightful food with smiling faces all around.

We had no idea what we were doing but they made us the "house special" which including fresh (SO SO FRESH) mozzarella cheese, proscuitto, olive oil, olives, and arugula. It's made fresh before your eyes. The seating is limited, but it's worth standing for. We would have went back again and again if we were in Rome for longer.

Huge selection if you are going for a bottle, including some international selection. But primarily Italian. There is also an option to dine in, we didn't. The ambience is more tavern like (no not in the sense of a hangout spot for drunks!), than upscale wine bar. They had a about 20 wines by the glass. Options by the glass and bottle change on a regular basis, after all they are one of the largest retailers of fine wine in Rome.
