Laura W.

For my 1000th review, I wanted to give a HUUUUUGE shout out to Pane & Vino and the owner, Fabio, for truly presenting the best sandwiches and the kindest hospitality to my husband and I during our lunch visit. I had seen the positive Yelp reviews and was eager to enjoy a meal here during our stay in Rome. We tried to visit first around 12:30pm, however, a group of six (including 2 young kids) occupied all of the stools, and when I very kindly asked if the parents would not mind having one of the toddlers sit on their lap so we could share one chair between us I was met with a barrage of hostility-literally asking me if I know how to count 6 people for 6 chairs. Before anything escalated (because I was pretty astonished at their behavior and audacity), we left, toured the Roman Forum and returned around 2pm to try again. At 2pm it was less crowded and there were two stools available. When we went to thecounter to order, the owner, Fabio, recognized us from earlier and asked what the problem had been. When I explained, he apologized for their behavior (nothing for him to be sorry about obviously) and told us that they were quite rude to him and his staff as well. He thanked us for returning and said he wanted to put a smile on my face by the time I left, and promised his sandwiches would do so. They did, but Fabio's conversation and passion for his food did that even prior to me tasting anything. After our meal, he even gave us a map of Rome and little known places to visit that are cool, such as the Aventine Keyhole and the rose garden. Now for the food. I ordered the special porchetta, their most popular sandwich. It has roast pork, buffalo mozzarella, grilled eggplant, grilled peppers, mushrooms, lettuce, and just a tad bit of mayo to tie everything together. Not only was the portion gigantic-easily could have fed 2 people-but the flavors were amazing! The bread was fresh and nicely toasted and the pork was very tender. This is a very, very messy sandwich so be prepared with the napkins! My husband ordered the Poppea-parma raw ham, buffalo mozzarella, and rocket salad. He loved his sandwich and shared my sentiments about the fresh ingredients! Fabio was also kind enough to give us each a free chocolate mousse cup which was so,so creamy and delicious! They have a cooler of drinks plus wine (obviously) and beer. We both really enjoyed our beer selections. Prices are super reasonable and if there is no room to dine in-and it's not 100 degrees outside-feel free to get your sandwich to carry out and enjoy in one of the many parks or piazzas nearby. The location near the Colosseum makes this ideal for a lunch spot after touring around.

If Fabio is here, you're in for an absolute treat. He has run this place for seven years, invented the menu, and is happy to entertain. If he's not, the food will be just as good, but you won't get his service- which is incredible. If you want someone friendly to answer any questions you have in English, French, German, Italian, or Arabic, then Fabio is your man. He also has some stories! In addition, the food itself is great. Sandwiches are diverse and interesting with all fresh ingredients. One of the breads is made with tomatoes. Seriously. And it tastes incredible.

The pork is where it's at. Don't get the veggie or ham it's not what they do. Skip the specials, get the Cioli!! Nothing else!

My 10 year old love this place! Very small, simple menu, but as they say... great things come in small packages. Was good to eat something other than pasta and pizza

Found Pane & Vino on yelp while looking for a quick bite around the colosseum area. Wanted to get off the beaten path. This place is AWESOME!!! I can't say enough good things about this location. As others have said, get the porchetta sandwich. This is huge and the price is right. The seating here is limited so know that going in. When I say it's limited, I am not joking. You will understand when you get there. The service was good and it was a nice place to catch a quick bite. Enjoy......

Vittoriano vegetarian sandwich and Chardonnay.

The special porchetta sandwich is great. And big. Should be good to share unless you're hungry. Fun and friendly staff and great service. Nice break from the craziness of the summer Colosseum spectacle. A bottle of cold prosecco goes well with the sandwich. Also has a selection of vegetarian sandwiches for non-pork eaters like my girlfriend. But the vegetarian sandwich was not great, per my girlfriend.

The place is wonderful! Food, drinks, service everything is superb! The owner is extremely friendly, he made sure that we loved every single moment. And we did! Definitely five stars!

Conveniently located right by the colosseum! Alongside delicious sandwiches and cheap price in a variety of ingredients and styles, the owner is one personality you are will not soon forget. As far as we saw he was fluent in a slew of different languages (at least Italian, English, French) and converses with you while you wait and after you eat. We ordered the Special Porchetta sandwich and the Fabius sandwiches, and they were both huge and excellent. The former was a more traditional meat and vegetable (including grilled eggplants!) sandwich, while the latter was more akin to an American burger (which being from Texas we were quite familiar with). After we finished the server told us and some of the other parties about a cool spot to visit in Rome, and also gave us a recommendation for a good gelateria next door for a dessert afterwards en route to the colosseum. A heart warming meal and experience at a small shop overall, and absolutely no complaints!

Kati S.

This was our first lunch in Roma, just a few blocks down from our apartment - we got there about 45 minutes after opening, employees were friendly and service was quick. We both ordered the special porchetta, and they were great!! We really enjoyed them. The porchetta had a lovely flavor and every aspect of the sandwich seemed to work well together. We would return, if in the area in the future!

Wow ! I was feeling a little home sick and craving a burger to cure my stress. I typed in hamburger and viola...... Pane &Vino popped up. I was already on my way to another restaurant, but I adjusted my headings to Pane & Vino The location is close to the Coleseo and near bus stops and conveniently located on a corner. The restaurant is rather small and does have outside seating and limited seating inside. The carving station is behind glass and you can see them preparing your sandwich right in front of you. The owner operator is very kind, humorous, and speaks your language! The sandwich!! Phenomenal! I ordered the Special Porchetta with added sun dried tomatoes, the owner explained that it may affect the taste of the sandwich and I appreciated his recommendations. It is a place that puts love into their sandwiches and you can clearly taste the difference it makes. It not only filled me up, but it also reminded me of my moms Tortas from home. I left Pane&Vino very satisfied and happy I found it. I highly recommend that you visit and see what all the hype is about. Your taste buds and your soul will appreciate your decision! CIO I will return !

Stopped here for our first lunch in Rome. Conveniently located near the Colosseo. Not many seats inside, we chose to sit outside on a curb. I ordered the porchetta special and it was delicious. The bread is so light and airy; I didn't want to stop eating! The sandwiches here are well sized and I only ate about half the portion. My husband also enjoyed his sandwich. The cashier spoke decent English, which made things easier as we had just gotten off a flight.

Fantastic find highlighted in Rick Steves Italy book. Welcoming staff with great sandwiches and Italian craft beer. First time having porchetta while in Italy and we tried both sandwiches offered. Excellent flavor with both.

Pane & Vino is just a few steps away from the Colosseum and is a fantastic place for lunch. I had the Pork Panini Special and it was amazing. All of the ingredients were very fresh and full of the flavors you expect in Italy. The sandwiches are made to order with fresh ingredients right in front of you. The place is also very clean. Paninis range from €6-8 and are a great value as the sandwiches are large and very delicious! read more

I know it seems like I'm giving all these restaurants 5 stars but the Owner was super friendly and if you are by the Colosseum it's only 1 block away... Just ask what the more popular dish, they will ask the right questions, when asked if we wanted spicy, as a Mexican you think habanero hot, but it's just Tabasco, it's an awesome sandwich nonetheless writing on the wall lets you know it's touristic, but those tourists are guiding you through the right way... read more

A little hidden gem in Rome...as soon as we walked in we were teased by the owner that if we were hungry we were in the wrong place....this was the first & only time my daughter & I encountered someone in Rome who was that friendly & had a sense of humor! We ordered the Mortadella pane & the Porchetta Special...omg! Yummm! We eat Mortadella in the states & he made sure to confirm that we knew it was wild boar...this was the best Mortadella we've ever tasted. It was sliced very thin, inside soft but slightly crispy roll, with crisp lettuce & cheese, so tasty! The Porchetta was moist & tender, served on delicious Italian bread that was crunchy on the outside & soft in the inside. It had some delicious veggies that I believe were pickled, cheese, lettuce, & mayo(first time we saw mayo in Italy) everything worked perfectly together, the veggies helped offset the richness of the pork & mayo, the lettuce provided a little crunch, and the bread was perfection! We will dream of those sandwiches forever! Note- when I went to pay I was slightly short in euros ( they don't take atm/ credit cards) so I was going to give him 50 euro but he told me it was fine even though I was a little short! read more

If you're looking for a good lunch place or quick dinner near the Coliseum that isn't a tourist trap, Pane & Vino is it! You won't be disappointed. The menu is simple, wholesome, and rich with flavor. The Traiano and crispy pork sandwiches are amazing. We had the pleasure of meeting Fabio (one of the owners) while we were there.

We strolled across this place on our way out of the coliseum and didn't want to go to another cafe shop to eat. The sandwiches are amazing and fresh. If your not too hungry then I recommend getting half a sandwich. Plenty of selection in drinks.(water, coke, Fanta, Pepsi, ice tea, and wine). The service is very fast and they are very helpful to offer suggestions. I will definitely return to this place when we pass by it again and try another sandwich.

Based on yelp reviews, we walked about a mile out of our way to try Pane & Vino for lunch. It was lackluster at best. We ordered the meatball sandwich, pork sandwich, and cheese fries. All had very limited flavor and the bread of the sandwiches was the worst bread we had on our 10 day stay in Italy - very flavorless and dry. With all the delicious food in Rome, we were honestly disappointed we used up stomach space on this food. read more

Not only are the sandwiches the most delicious thing you've ever tasted, but the owner was by far the friendliest person we have ever met. I asked for cheese on my porchetta sandwich, and I was immediately set straight as to why the Romans eat the meat without tainting the flavor. It was incredible. The owner brought us buffalo mozzarella to try anyway, just in case we wanted to see the difference. Couldn't have asked for better customer service with an owner and staff who really pours themselves into their menu. You can also order a selection of beer, wine, and sodas to complement your meal and write on the walls to leave a note after a nice day out sightseeing! The moral of the story is.. just eat here for your stomach, and for your soul. read more

Amazing! The owner was incredibly friendly and helpful in recommending sandwiches (LISTEN TO HIM). We had the Poppea, the Giulio Cesare, and the Traiano, all of which were delicious but we agreed that the Traiano took the cake! Sorry if the spelling is wrong. Unlike most Italian sandwiches, they came on soft rolls which was a nice change of pace!

After a long morning touring, we were looking for refuge away from the swarms of tourists that surround the area around Pane & Vino. That's why when we saw the reviews, we were a little skeptical that this wasn't a tourist trap. That being said, we were too hungry to walk too far out of the area so we decided to take a risk and stop by. Pane & Vino is a tiny sandwich shop operated by one of the nicest people we met on our trip! Fabio speaks a million languages all perfectly without an accent and was a total pleasure to speak with as we waited for our sandwiches to come out while sipping on some wine. The place itself is tiny with only a few seats but is super charming and houses super yummy sandwiches. We had the signature porchetta and the famous squid ink burger - both were absolutely fabulous. Would totally come back for the yumminess, good company and great prices (and because this place is ANYTHING BUT a tourist trap)!! read more

Pane e Salame, however, was delicious!!!! On our first day in Rome, my husband and I decided to search for a lunch spot nearby (we were staying near the Trevi fountain), and I found this place had pretty good reviews. We got there about an hour after it opened and requested a seat outdoors. They have a tiny patio across from their entrance, but they fit quite a bit of people in it! We initially wanted to order two sandwiches to try more items, but I'm glad we just shared one - they were big and filling! We also had the small charcuterie board to share which was plenty of food for us both. We shared a bottle of rose, and all in all, we paid under $50 (usd) - what a steal! This was the perfect first meal in Rome. The food was incredibly fresh, the service was great, and the outdoor seating allowed us to experience the streets of Rome. 10/10 - would absolutely go back.

Ma nel complesso, lo consiglierei di andarci.

When I arrived there was no line, so maybe I got lucky, just one couple in front of me already inside the shop. Take a number and wait your turn. It's worth it. Sandwiches are made on pizza bianca, a crisp and chewy flatbread native to Rome. They will fill your sandwich with whatever you like, and then weigh the sandwich to price it out. I got mortadella, stracciatella, pesto and sun-dried tomatoes. The sandwich was phenomenal, so delicious and memorable that I recreated it when I got home to the US, bread and all. The sandwiches may seem simple but the ingredients are the best around which really takes things to the next level. Don't miss it if you're in Rome.

It was delicious as it had porchetta, caramelized onions, dried tomatoes, basil, and garlic mayo. Only deducting 1/2 star because there was not as much meat as pictured on the menu and the sandwich is looked smaller than the picture. However, they have lots of really cool beers if you're into that. They also give out stamp cards for ordering regularly and I love that the stamp is a donkey!

As soon as we sat down, the waitress asked us what we wanted and she came back three times in the span of five minutes so I definitely wish I had more time to breathe and look at the really large menu. I got the vegan sandwich and it actually blew my mind that it was vegan. The cuts of meat were so realistic and the vegan Parm also tasted so close to the original. Altogether, if you had just gave me the sandwich and I was eating it I wouldn't have even questioned that it was vegan. The sandwiches here are so delicious, I would definitely come back.

This is a casual sandwich place but very good sandwiches. Only a few seats to sit and eat (like 6) but the staff was extremely nice and extremely hospitable. Fabio fixed is up with wifi, a great explanation of the menu and at the end some amazing recommendations for unusual and free things to check out while touring this beautiful city. read more
