We came to this local restaurant to grab a bite for lunch. We ordered a few delicious toasted paninis, and I had a cappuccino as well. The price was very reasonable, service was great and everyone was very friendly even though not all of the local staff spoke English. Definitely a great find and a high recommendation! read more

Had lunch at La Terrazza on a sunny crispy afternoon during the workweek. I already have reviews for most places I frequent here in Aurelia. It seems as though I had to expand on this one. Typical Italian meal, meat and pasta, lots of carbs, gnocchi-calzone-panini-macaroni, plus tons of desserts. Desserts at La Terrazza are really good. La Terrazza offers a rooftop terrace seating with gorgeous views of the country side. This is the type of place in the business park, within walking distance from Mariott, where many offices are located. People go to lunch here, it's a sort of a cafeteria style setting in terms of the presentation of food. Not your typical trattoria style. Great assortment of antipasti (cold appetizers), including sautéed veggies, artichokes, eggplant, roasted zucchini, red bell papers, carpaccio, prosciutto, soppressata, fresh mozzarella nuggets drizzled with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Beef stew, meat loaf, steamed seasoned potatoes, pasta shells, sautéed green beans, octopus with macaroni. I called them that, they may have proper Italian names attached, I just didn't care to go deep today, nor did I have time for that. Fabulous selection of pastries and desserts downstairs, including Sfogliatelle, Sanguinaccio dolce, Semifreddo, Zeppole, Canoli, Panna Cotta, Tartufo, and fruit compote. Advertised pizzas include the following: Pizza con Forno a Legna, anche Integrale - pizzas cooked in the wood burning oven, and also plate combos (complete meal): Ortolana - garden veggie pizza Margherita - traditional wood fired oven pizza Patate - Pizza di Patate with potatoes Boscaiola (Mozzarella, Funghi, Salsiccia) - mozzarella cheese, mushrooms, sausage Amatriciana (Pomodoro, Guanciale, Pecorino) - tomatoes, cured meat from pork cheeks, pecorino cheese read more

We were staying at the Marriott Park and there was not much around the area for food. It was recommended by the hotel to come here. We walked through an apartment complex on a very quiet street. Not sure where it was going to take us and we finally found the restaurant about a 17 minute walk away. The staff were very pleasant and the atmosphere was beautiful. We ate on the rooftop terrace and picked from a menu in Italian and English which always makes ordering easier. The pizza was excellent and so was the bread and beer. (Also... Not sure if this is an Italian thing, but the green salad is actually just a green salad. Aka lettuce haha). Thanks for a nice night La Terraza! read more

Very good service. Unfortunately the menu was not available in English, but that was not a problem because of very kindly english speakin service. We got pasta as a main course which was very delicious. We visit this restaurant 3 times during or stay. read more

My first time to Rome and I found this cute local cafe. The people were very nice and the pastries were amazing. I had a chocolate cannoli and the tiramisu and it was a great size and an amazing price. I loved everything about this cute local neighborhood cafe. read more

Much friendlier service than most restaurants in Italy. Try the filetto di manzo with olives and peppers on it. Ask about their starter specials, which are often raw. Walkable from the Park Marriott if you don't have a car... or if you drink too much vino. ;) read more
