We've been traveling around Italy for a month now and sometimes we just get a craving for fast food, American style. Owlchips is located almost directly in front of our apartment in Trastevere. We went in one night and were greeted by a very friendly guy. Initially we just ordered fries, but for a € more, we added chicken nuggets.
The fries were good and abundant. Plus, they are even better with their Salsa Tartufo. The chicken nuggets were crispy and taste exactly like the old McD's nuggets. Everything is fried in peanut oil, which is a tad better for you. The only reason that I knocked off a star was because of the burger. On our second visit, we ordered a burger and that was not good at all. While they top it with extremely fresh lettuce & tomatoes, the meat was just odd and tasteless. I have not had any luck with burgers in Italy. Period.
So... Good fries, friendly service, and well priced. Oh, and delicious Salsa Tartufo! It's great for when you just want some fast food. read more
