    Cheese ball - family recipe
    Tracy H.

    During our visit to Rome this has been our go to place! Day 1 we arrived in the area and needed a place to kill time before check in and just across the street we found this little joint that welcomed us with our suitcases and all. Enjoyed pizza, burrata and the cheese balls, a family recipe. During our stay we returned several more times and received a warm welcome and excellent food. If you are staying in the area I recommend a stopping in! Definitely try the pizza and the cheese balls and go from there!

    Pasta Carbonara with sliced truffle & Margherita Pizza

    Stopped by to get dinner here since it was near our Airbnb and well rated, and it exceeded expectations! Best pasta we had in Rome. Very generous portions, robust flavor, and an elegant menu. The service was also top notch. Staff speaks some English (definitely enough to order without needing Italian), and is extremely hospitable. If you're anywhere near here, strongly consider adding this to your list to eat at. We ordered: - House red wine - carbonara - amatriciana - braised beef - frutti di mare - tiramisu - chocolate cake - margherita pizza

    Fantastic food, great service, and easy to order menu available in English. Restaurant was very clean, quaint, and cozy! Highly recommend this establishment and will visit again this week while in the area!

    Fettuccine with Ragu meat sauce

    This little bistro is amazing. Staying at an apartment just a few blocks away the Vatican and had dinner here three or four times. Every time the food was excellent. Authentic Italian cooking. This place is very popular with the locals which is always a good sign. You can't go wrong with their pasta or meat dishes. One night I had the oxtail stew... and it fell right off the bone. Highly recommend trying this restaurant out.

    Hidden gem close to St. Peter's. Italian owned and operated where the locals come to eat. Not touristy and not pretentious.

    Review # 1200 After…read moresome shopping on the Via cola Di Riemzo, we were ready for lunch. This spot was a Yelp find. We arrived just before they opened at 12:30. We asked for a table outside and the kind lady asked us if we had a reservation (oh oh). We didn't. No problem as we took our pick of one of the tables. Two levels inside with a small Bar in the back. Before we knew it, outside seating was full and inside also filled up-a good sign. We ordered a liter (ended up being too much but when in Rome...) of their house Red and enjoyed it. For starters, we ordered the Fried Artichokes (thick breading and will order the Roman style with garlic/vinegar next time), fried Zucchini and Suppli-Cacio Pepe. The Suppli was delicious and was enjoyed the most. For main, it was Pasta Carbonara (Guanciale )-Proper carbonara and the streak of not having a bad version of this dish in Rome continues. The sliced Beef with mushrooms was also delicious -super tender and thin pieces of beef (medium rare as requested). We asked if the Tiramisu was house-made. Our server answered, "yes, and I am the one who makes it." How could we not order after that?! One of the best Tiramisus we've had. Perfect balance of coffee dipped lady fingers with cream-delicious! Our Server was kind, attentive and full of hustle -she was covering a lot of ground. Don't miss this Gem if you are in the Prati district.

    On our last night in Rome, we wanted to dine at an intimate restaurant located close to our…read moreapartment in Prati. Already depressed knowing we were returning to the cold and fearful Minneapolis, we spent the day packing and wandering Prati. After drowning our sorrows at a few cocktail emporiums in the early evening, we walked into Su e Giu without a reservation close to 9:30. The two guys working the front showed us to a table, and we proceeded to have a perfect last night meal. Our appetizers and pastas were great, service was friendly, and I spent time reflecting on how wonderful Rome is, rather than thinking about our return to the fractured States. Su e Giu Cucina Romana is the perfect Roman restaurant to feel La Dolce Vita. It is a sweet life indeed.

I had the special which was the truffle pasta and my husband had the Cacio e Pepe. Both were phenomenal! The portion size is perfect and the price was very very reasonable.

This shop is more of a countertop order from their limited menu but the menu is executed so well you'll be tempted to order multiple bowls. There are a few stools and table out front to enjoy your food hot. Both times I've been on separate visits within two years, has only shown me how consistent their food and quality is. You can pair your dishes with an aperol spritz or mini bottle of wine for less than five euros. The pasta was about nine to eleven euros and the portions were more than plenty. The chef and owner are super nice and very informative about their dishes. If you are a fan of spice you have to try their chef-recommended dish. They had one dish topped with pancetta and I just about wanted to lick my bowl clean. Everyone in the group was raving how delicious it was. Egg will forever be on my must-have when visiting Rome.

    Yes, it's worth the wait if you go there early. We stood in line at 12:30 on a weekday, as in,…read morelunchtime. We were 2nd in line and waited about 30 minutes. I would wait longer. I had possibly the most amazing chick food pasta a girl could imagine. Girls know what girl food is. The pasta in Italy is just better -obviously. But then put all sorts of girl flavors on it like Lemon and Orange, just lightly enough, zest with a small hint of cheese-..... omgosh. Yes, yes, and yes. Need my hubs to replicate at home. He is going to be busy trying to perfect this. Tagliatelle with orange and lemon parmesan. This was it. It was the best. Everything else we ordered was amazing as well. Wait outside. They don't have a sign telling you to wait, no server telling you to wait. You wait out there, wondering if you're in the right place, but then people stand behind you and you're like - oh! I'm here. This is the place. There are possibly 4 tables inside. It's small. I read about them being rude- we did not have that problem. In fact, they made a mistake and we kindly let them know we ordered something else- they corrected it and were nice about it.

We were super lucky that we didn't have to wait too long to get a table and we were sat instantly. They can only seat about 18 total. Both pastas were just absolutely amazing. The wine recommendation to match was equally great. Very reasonable priced. Really nice staff. Very much a self sufficient spot. Loved it and would recommend. The tiramisu had me in love all over again
