    seafood pasta
    Rania E.

    Only reason i'm giving this place a two star review is because of the food. It was not that good and probably subpar at best. The gnocchi was pretty good but the sauce was way too sharp and overpowering. If the salt was cut back and the sauce was a little thinner with some black pepper, it would have been perfection. My husband's dish was alright but nothing to rave about. There is better food in the city tbh. Highlights were the service and the atmosphere. Mataeous was at attentive and kind. The place was well staffed and someone was always around if you needed anything. It was super cozy and decorated for Christmas. Super cute for an intimate date night. Make sure to make a reservation on TripAdvisor for 30% off.

    This restaurant was so lovely, charming, joyously musical, had wine flowing and lots of carby goodness to choose from. We had lots and lots of red wines between our tables. We had a good lot here. I had the caprese and penne pasta. There was so much wonderful music and good cheer. There wasn't one sad soul in this whole restaurant. Pure merriment and so much good food.

    Our tour group had a lovely dinner here and I must say we found it quite enjoyable. We had several courses all of which were very tasty and waiters were very good , refilling drinks quickly, cleaning off table and bringing next course. There was also some live music which really added to the ambiance. My son was the only child in the group and they brought him and extra large serving of gelato which was unexpected and very sweet. If in the area I'd definitely return.

    Prosciutto and melon

    Ristorante Mino was our first full meal after we arrived in Roma. As part of our tour it was our "welcome to Rome!" dinner and the staff definitely pulled out all the stops for us. Four courses of delicious food + bottles of a lovely house wine + music = a fantastic way to start off our tour. Our four course meal started w/ bruschetta, prosciutto and melon. The pairing of salty meats and sweet fruits was simple and delicious. Why don't more restaurants in the States have dishes like this on their menu? Next up was a glorious sampler of pastas. Pasta dish #1: rigatoni w/ mushrooms (fungo). The pasta was a perfect choice for this sauce- the ridges held onto the creamy sauce and didn't let go. We only got a sampler of this one but I could have easily eaten a 2nd bowl. That was until pasta #2 came out. Lasagna! Holy crap melt-in-your-mouth lasagna. It literally melts in your mouth. The sauces, cheese and minimal meat was all perfect. Our 3rd course consisted of thinly slices pork, super tender roasted potatoes and a wine sauce. The pork was good, lacked a little flavor, but the potatoes more than made up for it. I don't know what those chefs did to these potatoes but they were incredible. Last but certainly not least was our dessert. Strawberry gelato + the freshest strawberries I think I've ever had. They were tart yet sweet, bright red and took the strawberry gelato to another level. The staff at Mino was great. Food came out of the kitchen piping hot and waiters were good to explain the dishes they were placing in front of us. We were seated in an upstairs dining room but there were plenty of cozy tables on the first floor. Should we find ourselves in Roma again I wouldn't hesitate to visit Mino again for dinner.

    Great wine!

    Amazing place! The food was absolutely remarkable here. They have a 5 course meal for 15 euro and it will not disappoint you.

    Service was great! Food was good. I may have gave it a 4 star, but I didn't care that much for the dish I got. My fiancé' dish was good!

    Our first meal in Rome was here, and I'm so glad it was here. We arrived on Christmas Eve and…read morewanted a good meal. 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.

By the time we were seated, dozens of people were waiting behind us. We sipped an Aperol spritz and lemonade while we waited, chatting with fellow diners who raved about the restaurant. On a sweltering day, our kids were starting to struggle in the heat when the owner came outside and gave them mini pizzas breads. It was a thoughtful gesture that immediately made us feel welcome. Once seated, we ordered burrata, cacio e pepe, amatriciana pasta, pork chops, and fried artichokes. Everything was excellent, but the amatriciana was the standout--rich, savory, and unforgettable. The cacio e pepe was silky, the burrata fresh and creamy, the pork chops juicy, and the fried artichokes perfectly crisp. There's a reason people line up for Da Enzo. The food is exceptional, the atmosphere lively, and the hospitality remarkable. Without question, this was our best meal in Rome and one of our most memorable restaurant experiences.

The tomatoes were fresh and juicy but the burrata was a bit thick (referring to the outer aspect). Also the bread was a bit tough. The amatriciana was good, but not worth a 2 hour wait in a line, 7.5/10. Pasta was perfectly al dente, but the sauce wasn't anything to die for. I think you can get a very similar possibly better pasta in Rome without the wait. My girlfriend got the gnocchi pasta, which she said was a 7/10. The gnocchi was great, but again the sauce wasn't anything special Tiramisu, 10/10. This was amazing. It was sweet without being overpowering. The ladyfingers weren't soggy, and had that strong espresso taste. I would come back here just for this dessert. Also if you don't like cramped spaces, probably not the best spot. I could hear the people next to me better than I could hear the person across me haha.

    Super pizza place with a lot of other great stuff on the menu…read more I looked with envy at the other tables who were enjoying spectacular plates of spaghetti with mussels. * * * That said, my pizza was a grand slam home run. Many of their pizzas are quite elaborate With all sorts of exotic ingredients. I went super simple. Gorgonzola. Mozzarella. That's it. Just enough Mozzarella to cut the Gorgonzola and make for a good melt. * * * If you have never had a gorgonzola pizza, you have never lived. Just sayin'. * * * P.S. My lovely wife got a Norwegian salmon pizza. The Norwegian salmon was stacked up high on her pizza As if she was in the World Series of Poker and she was a big winner. I have never seen so much salmon on one plate. After our meal, I made a discreet phone call to the Norwegian embassy in Rome asking them if they still had any salmon left. The woman at the embassy assured me the Norwegian salmon supply was fine. That surprises me given all the salmon that was on my wife's pizza.

Being new to Rome, and having walked 20k steps on our first day, there are an abundance of options a for dining. We wanted something classically Rome nearby to our hotel. The Yelp review of this restaurant was sufficiently positive to entice us. Being American, we appreciate the earlier-than-customary dining options. We arrived at 6pm without a reservation. We were seated immediately. The restaurant is intimate and very well staffed. The wood fire oven is front-and-center and the fresh mozzarella is prominent in display. We ordered a bottle of wine ... all options are very fairly priced. This is nice. We started with a Greek salad to share. It was unlike any American Greek salad ... and a really delight. It is early June but the tomatoes and peppers were ripe and crisp and really fresh. My wife ordered the Marguerite pizza; I opted for the Gorgonzola pizza (the effusive review on Yelp was compelling). Both were solid. We appreciate the thin crust and the crisp edged. The center of both, however, was doughy and somewhat undercooked. Looking around ... the restaurant was over 50% full even at this early hour. Most were Americans. We saw a good number of diners with pasta dishes ... and none were left unfinished. Sadly, we don't have any comparisons to weigh (yet). So, I cannot affirm any "best of" citations, it this is certainly a solid trattoria/pizzeria. The staff are attentive and the food served hot and fresh.
