    Good ambiance and good food! The service was not the best, though. Sitting on the patio seemed like…read morea cute idea but perhaps they forgot about us out there? We had the vongole clams and coda alla vaccinara romana. The clam pasta was just OK - most of the clams were empty and the first pasta came out cold. They sent another pasta out and there were more clams in it but by that time I was halfway through my dish. The vaccinara was the star of the show. So tender and delicious. The sauce was rich and tasted like the meat had been slow simmered in it for hours. It is my favorite dish on this trip so far! PRO TIP: We arrived around 1:30 PM and waited outside in line for about 30 minutes before we were seated.

Tucked into the winding streets of Trastevere, the restaurant has that classic, old-world appeal: warm lights, intimate tables, and the inviting hum of locals and travelers all savoring a good meal. It's the kind of place where you instantly feel like you've stepped into an authentic Roman moment. The menu champions traditional flavors with heart. Their pasta dishes stand out immediately--perfectly cooked, rich in character, and prepared with fresh, honest ingredients. Whether you go for a velvety carbonara, a bold amatriciana, or a beautifully simple cacio e pepe, each plate delivers that comforting Roman soulfulness you hope for in Trastevere. The pizzas offer the same level of satisfaction: thin, flavorful, and baked to the ideal crispness. Antipasti arrive fresh and thoughtfully seasoned, and the salads bring a bright, refreshing balance to the table. Service is welcoming, warm, and relaxed, fitting perfectly with the neighborhood's easygoing vibe. You're encouraged to enjoy your meal at your own pace while soaking in the charm of the lively streets just outside. LA CANONICA is exactly the kind of Trastevere spot you hope to stumble upon--authentic, delicious, and full of character. A wonderful choice for a cozy, flavorful Roman dining experience in one of the city's most enchanting quarters.

    La Canonica - Under this, a beautiful "fireplace" along with string lights and ceilings painted like a cathedral in the romantic room behind us.

    A yes! Testacio! who does not love this party neighborhood!…read moreLast time i went here was back in 2012!! but hey i went to this place like twice a month so i can still review it! This is not like the American version of Chinese food, they have to improvise on a lot of things. That being said the food is still good and edible. The waiters did not speak English only Italian so this gives you an idea of how this part of town is not touristy at all. They still manage to communicate with us on what we want to order. A couple of times i been here with my friends and someone just pointed to what someone was eating to the table next to us and the waiter knew that's what we wanted haha good times. In terms of staff they all were friendly even tho we did not understand 90% of what they said. The restaurant was clean and they did not let those annoying street vendors in, you know the ones selling light up roses or some robot toy etc. There are a lot of restaurants in the touristy areas that WILL let those guys in but many do not and this is one of them. So if you want to eat your meal in peace this would be one of them. For sure try it and you will experience this American favorite in a whole new light.

    If you're sick of pasta and pizza I would definitely come here! The food is cheap and they have a…read morehuge menu that includes Chinese, Japanese, Thai and some Italian. The waiters at first weren't that welcoming but I think it was because they couldn't really speak English as they spoke Italian and mandarin. However once we spoke to them in mandarin they were more than willing to converse and help us out. If you do speak in English they do have some waiters that are able to communicate some words to try and help you out. Traveling through Europe there aren't that many places where we could find vegetables so coming to get what we were craving was great. I would recommend the pan fried dumplings, the beef and vegetables and some other Chinese hot plates. I had my doubts in the beginning and wasn't really planning to come here but I was pleasantly surprised and would definitely come again if I was ever in Rome and craving Chinese.
