So happy I got to stop in for a bite. The carbonara was simply divine. I switched out the traditional noodles but the flavor was unmatched. Well seasoned, creamy and the right amount of saltines from the authentic guanciale. They have a charming bar and inside dining seating yet I chose to sit on the patio. Everyone was so nice and accommodating. From the walkable location, drinks, Food and superb decadent dessert this place stole my heart and tastebuds. Complimentary lemoncello post meal also refreshing. Can't wait to come back and indulge in more tasty goodness. Food Carbonara 11/20 Dessert Caramel cheesecake 12/10 Lemon 10/10 read more

Our favorite dinner in Rome! My husband and I ventured here on our last night in the city and it was honestly the best meal we had during our stay in Rome. Reservations were incredibly easy, the decorations were beautiful and the service was great. We shared cacio e pepe, meatballs and beef strips for dinner. To finish, we had tiramisu and strawberry cheesecake - both were served in adorable mason jars. read more

Margot's was by far the best meal we had in Rome. The mozzarella was incredible and nothing else we tried was even close. You've not had a meatball until you've had one here. And the gnocchi was out of this world. You'll definitely see Margot. She is a delight. And they were very accommodating to our son. Five stars. Great experience. Don't miss this gem. read more

Margot was recommended to our group by our hotel concierge, Emmanuelle, at hotel 21. The ambiance was great, food was authentic Italian, and the service was some of the best I've experienced. We ordered the eggplant meatballs and amazing fettuccine. The best part was how fun our server, Francesco, was! He took the experience from great food to an incredible overall experience! I am thankful for the recommendation and to experience true Roman food. Highly recommend! read more

Great food. Great ambiance. Great service from Francesco. We were a party of 8, and were accommodated in a timely manner. Francesco went above and beyond. read more

I lived in Prati for a few months and loved this restaurant. The interior is magical! Romantic and cozy with the string lights. All the dishes were delicious and our servers were always friendly and helpful. They also spoke English well. My friend ranked this as her favorite Carciofi (artichoke) dish in Rome. This was a neighborhood favorite for me! read more

Excellent dining experience on our first and last day in Rome. We made a reservation here for 21:30 on a Saturday night and were happy to arrive and be seated at our reserved table, because the rest of the place was packed. There is a small outside section and an inside section which is located in a basement. You would never know you're in a basement from the way that it is decorated. The interior is so cozy and romantic. Perfect for our anniversary dinner. The menu is written in Italian (with english underneath if I remember correctly). The waiter was patient with our questions and super friendly. After being bombarded by tourists in Rome, it was nice to finally only hear people speaking Italian around us. The first time we were there, we ordered eggplant parmigiana (5/5), a pasta amatriciana (5/5 amazing!!), meatballs (5/5) and a breaded lamb dish with a side of potatoes (3/5, not our favourite). The coperto included bread and it was delicious to dip into the sauce of our appetizer and pasta. We had just gotten off a plane and didn't feel like drinking so we stuck to water. We loved our meal and were so stuffed that we couldn't get dessert. The second time we came, it was again 21:30 but on a wednesday night and we ended up being only one of two couples there. The waiter had more time to speak to us. Although she didn't really speak english and we don't really speak Italian, we were able to communicate and she was super sweet. This time we each ordered a glass of wine (7 euros each for a big glass but I would recommend just ordering a bottle which was around 20 euros). The owner brought as complementary prosecco because she remembered us from a few days earlier. This time we ordered Amatriciana (again 5/5), Carbanara (3/5. I found it a bit salty), meatballs (5/5), veal scallopini (5/5). They forgot to bring us bread but by this point, I think another piece of bread would have put our carb-o-meter into overdrive. Service was excellent and they event gave us a small bottle of olive oil as a parting gift. Again, we did not save room for dessert. Pricepoint very reasonable for the quality. This is not a tourist trap place in my opinion. Each time cost between 50-65 euros for two people who ate way more than they needed to. I would love to come back here and would recommend it to groups, to friends and to couples. read more

We had a lovely date night dinner at Margot! It's an adorable little restaurant with charming decor and lighting. We had the place to ourselves with an early dinner reservation, then realized when we left it was because everyone else chose to sit outside too. :) We tried 3 specials and one regular menu dish. For appetizers two pasta specials: a ziti-like pasta with mussels and a tagliatelle with pesto. For main course: a turbot special that was really good and interesting, cooked with thin slices of potato and olives over it, as well as the grilled shrimp off the main menu. All of the dishes were delicious. We also got a great wine recommendation, which was excellent. Service was very friendly but a bit slow at times. I think that was because our booking was early for dinner in Rome and the restaurant was still getting up and running while we were there. Prices were very fair for the quality and quantity of food, especially relative to other places we ate in Rome and the desirable location in the Prati district. Tip: If you're visiting Rome in summer, go to Margot on a Friday for dinner, then get tickets for the special Friday summer Vatican Museum nights. You can easily walk over from the restaurant. Combined, it was a perfect night! Would absolutely come back next time we're in Roma! read more

So we were finishing a Mediterranean Cruise with a group of friends from the States and one of them did some research and came up with Margot. The staff spoke a little English but the menu had descriptions in English. We got a table for 8 and were charmed by the place which is slightly below ground. They have a nice wine list, well priced with decent Italian reds. They suggested Margot's special appetizer which they could not explain due to language barrier but our waiter said he would comp it if we were not pleased. We also ordered the Parma ham with Buffalo mozzarella and it was all fabulous. We then all ordered pasta and it was great with every preparation. I also ordered meatballs and although poorly described on the menu, they were melt in your mouth delicacies. A tray of pastries with some tiramisu and some limoncello. We then met Margot to cap the night and they sent us away with some pastry for the morning and some olive oil to take home. I would give it 8 stars. Very reasonably priced. 3 bottles of wine and dinner for 8 for $375.00. Do not miss this place. read more

Margot was a gem of a spot! It was close to the Vatican and our air bnb. It came well recommended from our air bnb host! We started of with a bottle of wine and an Aperol spritz. It was the biggest one I had ever been served! We had the meatballs as a starter and they melted in our mouths. We got a pasta dish and veal Marsala and both were to die for. We went for the Nutella cheesecake for dessert! They have us free shots after we paid. The ambiance was amazing and the food was as well. read more

Not sure how they have a 5 star rating?? The spaghetti with clams, had lots of shells with few clams. They charge for a bottle of tap water and call it still. Waiter was nice enough.. can not recommend for the price you pay. I had much better meals at better pricing. read more

We stumbled upon this hidden gem and are so glad we did! The ambiance is relaxing, as if you stepped into a green house or secret garden in the middle of Rome. It's more than just a wine bar, but an experience with custom chef creations that extend beyond the menu. The service was also incredible, as the staff, chef and owner were so welcoming and friendly. We can't wait to come back here to eat. The food was incredible! read more

I have to say that, this is literally my first time in Rome, Italy and I decided to stop at Margot for some breakfast (it was way too early for me to check-in at my Hostel). First, the customer service was truly exceptional, second, the atmosphere was very welcoming, and third, the food was delightful. Now, after checking in to my Hostel, I discovered that where I'm staying is behind Margot and since they left me with a great feeling I decided to check them out once again and this time I wanted their pasta carbonara. OMG! It was so delicious. I recommend this place for the food, the atmosphere, the great customer service and true taste of Italian food. Great job Margot! read more

What an awesome find! We happened to stumble across this restaurant that was near our hotel (near the justice palace, but also very close to the Vatican) and it was our one of the best meals in Rome during our whole trip. The vibe was casual, the food was fantastic, the waiter made us feel at home, and the owner was extremely gracious. From the amazing gnocchi, to the delicious meatballs, and ending with a fabulous tiramisu, the food at this place was AMAZING!! Margot is on my list as a must-stop when we next go to Rome, and I'll be recommending this place to any of my friends who visit. read more

A little disappointed after so many good reviews. Maybe an off night? Cute place but didn't live up to the expectations we had. Only one of our four dishes was very good. One ok and the other two subpar. Service was a little slow as well. read more

What a fantastic little gem! Recommended to us by our hotel staff as we wouldn't have found it otherwise. Quaint atmosphere with fantastic food and staff. Definitely give it a try! read more

The BEST meal we have had in Rome! You MUST try this adorable ristorante! From start to finish, we had an amazing experience-- the food, (bruschetta, eggplant, gricia con carciofi, meatball... my husband LITERALLY cried when he at the meatball... and dessert) was all so delicious! The service was excellent! I truly felt like I was having dinner with family. What a wonderful way to finish our trip to Italy. We are certainly thankful and hope to be back ASAP! read more
