This is my first time in Rome I heard great things about this restaurant. The service is amazing and everyone is so kind. I love the pastas they are all so yummy . And the restaurant is pretty and my favorite part not including the food is probably the outside it's quiet and is close to everything. By: Elianna Pery read more

Piccolo Arancio - Roman Near Me - Rome, RM

First things first, I got to go to Rome! something that was on my bucket list. I visited a plethora of great restaurants but this one stood out. The ambiance was beautiful; a small tucked away place down a cobblestone alley. Service was pretty good and staff was welcoming. I love the fact that I got to sample the wine before the whole bottle came to us. The pricing was not that bad; in fact I was surprised it was more. Definitely worth the trip if you are in Rome. read more

The food was authentic Roman dishes - My favourite - the truffle pasta on the specials! The fried artichoke was also lovely! The service was brilliant very attentive with kind staff We sat outside and the ambience was lovely a cobbled street with just the right amount of people passing considering it was a few minutes from the very busy trevi fountain. It was so good we came twice during our trip! read more

Had the mixed seafood app, spaghetti with clams, pasta gracio, the ox tail and spinach and fries. Food was hit or miss. We liked the mixed seafood. It was on the daily special. The pasta was ok but both dishes lacked flavor. The ox tail also lacked flavor. Service was slow. Waiter forgot our order and after seeing all the tables around us get served we asked about ours. At this point he apologized, brought some bread and comped us one of the dishes. The restaurant has two sections and the part we were in was narrow. read more

Not too many places on Yelp with ratings, but glad that Piccolo Arancio does...We were walking from the Colosseum and decided to have some really good food, in a small restaurant. If you want a work out, this place was up and down hills but well worth the walk. First of all, the servers were excellent and helpful with every question we had about the menu. We opted to have the mussels, baby lamb, cooked for 10 hours and the salmon gnocchi. The mussels were large and plentiful. It's been the third night in a row we've had some sort of mussel dish and this was second to none. The sous vide, 10 hour, baby lamb was tender and fall of the bone. The salmon gnocchi was over the top with everything else we ate and couldn't eat the whole dish...because we had to save some room for dessert. Since this was our first of three nights in Rome, the meal was a pleasure after walking almost 10 miles.

We enjoyed a delicious meal here in our last night in Rome a month ago. This restaurant is in a popular area, but it's down a little side street so we were able to sit outside without tons of people crowding past on the street. The service was kind and attentive. We started our meal with the appetizer of 1 fried zucchini blossom and 1 fried artichoke. The artichoke was very crispy, but the zucchini blossom was kind of limp and wet inside, not as crispy as I hoped. Both of them also needed seasoning. For my entree I had the chef-made gnocchi with tomato and basil. The sauce was delicious, but the gnocchi were a bit chewy and dense. My husband enjoyed the mixed seafood pasta and he said it was delicious! The winner of this meal for us was the homemade chocolate lava cake for dessert, it was incredibly delicious. I also loved how this restaurant had their own personalized plates and wine glasses, they were very cute! Overall a very enjoyable meal. read more

Terrible service , sat for an 30 minutes before we were even looked at. They kept avoiding us and then after the 30 minutes to order drinks we then had to wait 20 minutes to get their attention again to order food. The food was okay but nothing special , and when we asked to split the bill they said okay then came back and told us that it was a new rule that they couldn't split bills. They also lied about the Menu saying it was 1.90 for a person for asked but then set the bread on the whole table and charged 1.90 for everyone at the table weather they even ordered or ate the food at all. They would not make eye contact and avoided us as much as possible. Like I said service was bad and it ruinded the experience. read more

Don't miss this place when in Rome! We love their food. It is in a small side street, never a hustle and we so enjoy both the wine and the meal! The staff is friendly and offer great suggestions. As a plus, it is located across the street from a a laundromat, so we can have lunch and do our laundry to keep the pace while touring this wondrous city! It is a stone's throw from the Trevi Fountain. read more

Piccolo Arancio - Chocolate lava cake - Roman Near Me - Rome, RM

Years ago, we enjoyed a lunch here and decided to return for dinner. We made a reservation as it was Valentine's Day. We were warmly greeted and seated. The restaurant is cozy with a lovely ambience. Our server, Francesco, was attentive and friendly. Here you pay for the basket of bread and bread sticks and it is worth it! The bread was freshly baked, crusty and delicious. I started off with a Carciofo all a Giudia (fried artichoke). My husband enjoyed the Burrata special appetizer (burrata cheese with cherry tomatoes and arugula). I chose their signature dish, the Ravioli all'arancia, which was homemade ravioli filled with ricotta cheese and topped with an orange cream sauce. It was beyond different and bursting with flavor. My husband ordered the Filetto di Manzo ai Ferri (grilled beef fillet), which was cooked perfectly medium rare along with roasted potatoes. If you are in the area of the Trevi Fountain, make it a point to come here, you will not be disappointed. read more

If you're looking for a satisfying pasta dish, this place is the one. We got their signature orange ravioli, the lamb pasta, carbonara, and lasagna. The orange ravioli was very creamy with just a hint of orange--it was light and sweet, but lacking in the savory element that you'd expect from ravioli. The lamb was rich and had a strong flavor, which the sauce and Parmesan complemented nicely. The lasagna had the perfect cheese-meat-sauce-noodle ratio, with all the flavors melding together nicely. The carbonara was VERY rich--almost too rich. A couple bites of that had me full. We sat outside--the restaurant is situated in a cozy spot outside of an alleyway that connects two bustling strips of shops and restaurants. The wine was affordable and tasty. read more

Came for late dinner- (would recommend having a reservation so you won't be waiting too long- especially if you have more than 3 in your group!) Every dish we had was delicious and well-made! My favorite was actually the salmon and the octopus salad, however all of the dishes we tried were excellent! Cute little restaurant in a quiet alley near the Trevi fountain. read more

TLDR: 10% service fee. Serve open bottle of wine. No ice bucket. I knew about the table charge in italy, but 10% of the total bill is not common. Dont order artichoke. It just fried in oil with no seasoning. Ordered bottle of wine but it was already opened when served. No tasting. No ice bucket. Other table was paying their bill at their table, but only we received the bill after requesting 4 times and waited 30 min. Experienced racial since we were the only asian couple and other table had different experience than us. read more

You need to go here! After days in Italy of bad experiences with the food we finally found this place in Rome. It was delicious! Trust me you want to eat here. We had no reservation but I found it on yelp we got there right at opening & they had us wait for like 2 min & sat us right away. They brought us warm toasty bread!!! Which was 10 out of 10. We ordered the zucchini appetizer & WOW it was yummy! It was fried & it had cheese inside. We needed ordering another order of this only comes with 3. We were a group of 5 & we all had different dishes. We were all satisfied with what we ordered. We love sweet wine & they recommended the sparkling moscato it was 10 out of 10. I will be dreaming of this place. Best food we had while in Italy. read more

Fantastic experience! We were so lucky to have this restaurant a few doors down of our AirBnB. The food is out of this world! We ate there both of our nights. We ordered lasagna, fried artichoke Jewish style, eggplant & tiramisu- SO fresh, tasty @ pure perfection. The staff was very warm & friendly as well. It's highly recommended to make a reservation. We ate outside both nights but inside offer a warm ambiance. This is a must visit! Steps away from Trevi fountain as well. read more

Our favorite in Rome. Hard to find on side street but worth looking. Mussels were fantastic but skip the artichoke. Best dish was pasta with salmon sauce. Carbonara was fine. Son liked the ravioli in orange sauce, unlike any other. Had reservations. read more

Way above average food in Rome in a nice, secluded space. A coworker and I came here for a quick dinner before he had to go back to the hotel and deal with the fact that his toddler wasn't sleeping. The service was fast an attentive, which made it possible to have a nice dinner despite the fact that we were moving pretty quickly. I got the smoked salmon gnocchi and swordfish along with a glass of Montepulciano. The Montepulciano was fine, but not inspired and probably a bit below average for wine you'd get in a restaurant in Rome. The smoked salmon gnocchi was really fantastic though. It was actually Smokey and rich the way you'd hope and the texture and fluffiness of the gnocchi was a perfect match to the rich, creamy, meaty smoky sauce. The swordfish was also good and cooked right, but not as standout as the salmon gnocchi. read more

Very good food. Really enjoyed every item we ordered, most of which I was trying for the first time. - steamed artichoke - so soft and tasty - fried zucchini blossoms stuffed with cheese, delicious - lobster pasta - the lobster was just ok but wow those tomatoes. I don't remember tasting tomatoes this good ever. There's a reason we call them Roma tomatoes. - truffle pasta - how can this be made so simply but so delicious? It does not taste like the disgusting truffle oil they douse everything in, in mediocre American restos. Real truffles taste more restrained and refined to me. And there was a good amount of it. One of a handful of restaurants on my Italy trip that I only wish I got to eat at more than once. read more

We found this quiet restaurant off the beaten path close to the Trevi Fountain. Everything was superb. The staff was very catering to westerners and spoke very good english. Every single dish was cooked perfectly and came out fresh and hot. Fresh ingredients were used in salads, buffalo mozzarella cheese was out of this world. Hi made noodles for the lasagna, fresh seafood (salmon, swordfish, cuttlefish, prawns). The desserts tiramisu and pana was a hit with my family. We will stop by once more before we leave Rome!!!!!! Thank you for such a great dining experience. Definitely a gem! read more

Racist but 10% service fee is included automatically. We are from US, so we know what tipping means. All the tables around us were asked at least once if they needed anything. They did not ask us once and we had to request for a check fourth time to be able to pay. We ordered a bottle of wine every time we dined and this was a first restaurant that did not offer tasting and brought already opened wine bottle. The food wasn't even great. Theres plenty of better restaurants around. Please help yourself to avoid this restaurant at all cost read more

Food was great only complaint was that they sat our party of 5 at a 4 person table near the restroom. Other than that fried calamari was great so was the roman Gricia pasta. Mussels were well cooked and the ox tail was very soft. Would come again. recommend getting a reservation off the beaten path near Trevi Fountain read more

This was our stop for our last dinner in Rome and me and my mom left feeling so great about our decision to dine here. The service was wonderful -- at this point we had spent days in Rome getting heckled and given aggressive service as tourists in the other establishments but this location was warm, inviting, and so friendly. While we opted to dine a little earlier in the evening compared to most Europeans, there was already a line when we had arrived around 6-7pm. We ordered their signature seafood linguini which had tons of super fresh seafood ranging from shrimp, prawns, mussels, calamari, and the pasta was cooked perfectly al dente tossed in a delicious red sauce. The ambience is warm and romantic and is perfect for both small intimate dinners as well as groups. Definitely recommend this place. read more

4.7 stars! Very convenient location to our airbnb with a great variety of food. Prices are very fair and portions are great. Quality of food was also fantastic! We came here in our first night and fortunately stumbled on this restaurant. I am very happy we ate here because as i learned later in our trip that some restaurants are over priced and underwhelming. We decided to go all out and order a salad, 2 secondi, primi, and antipasta as suggested by our guidebook! The salad was good nothing too special. The steak was seasoned perfectly and was cooked properly (i had steak at couple other restaurants which have either under or overcooked, i think italians like their meats more on the rare side so in the future i would ask for the one level higher for the cook). The seafood pasta was very delicious, the clams, lobster, shrimp blended well and did not have the pugent smell/taste of seafood. Overall i would highly recommend this restaurant for a fancy but affordable night out with your special one or with friends! read more

Wonderful ambiance amid the crush of tourists just down the way as they all shuffle to Trevi fountain and the hall of not as good restaurants. Service was lovely and the food tasty. We may have ordered wrong because as we gazed at the table next to us- we thought Carbonara was the thing we should've ordered. But we enjoyed our truffle pasta and Seafood pasta. We had strawberry Prosecco, zucchini flowers and salad. Overall a fine meal! read more

So many things went wrong... The space is so small and tight it felt like you are eating in a cubic hole; unless you are lucky enough to get a seat outside. And the outside umbrella uprooted and thanks god did not hurt anybody. Ambience is nothing to write home about, food was so so, and the service was also so so. There are so many amazing choices in Rome. Why come here?! read more

After a couple disappointing meals, Piccolo Arancio was a breath of fresh air. A friend recommended that I tried this place because of their truffle pasta, which I ordered. First of all, this gem of a place is hidden on a little side street. On the main street, there are signs to direct you in the right direction. The restaurant is very small and intimate, about 10ish tables. we went right when dinnertime started and we were able to be seated immediately. We also got some complimentary champagne to start. I got the truffle pasta, which started this whole journey, and oh my goodness it was heavenly. I thought the flavor was well balanced, properly seasoned, and probably one of the best meals I had. I and my group were craving another Florentine steak which we also ordered. I think the Florentine steak here was a little overdone and could have done a little more with the flavor. I would have to say that part was just okay. Anyway, come for the truffle pasta, it's the true star of the show. read more

Very clean and neat restaurant. There's a lot seafood choices to pick from. It is in a very good location, right by the Trevi Fountain. There's two sides of the restaurant, both are very small but most places in Rome is quite small. The staff spoke English well and was friendly. But without a reservation, you could be waiting for a long time. There's no wait list and no organization from a hostess. There was a group of us outside just standing around, not knowing who to talk to or where to put our name down. Prices were average for a tourist area. The spaghetti with clams had fresh clams and no broke shell pieces which is nice. The pasta all around Rome is cooked al dente, a bit harder to bite then what we're used to in the US. Me and my mom also got an appetizer of mussels and clams which came with this delicious garlic butter sauce. I also got an anchovy salad which was very refreshing. I loved the light olive oil drizzle and arugula. read more

Searched Yelp after a visit to the Trevi fountain and made our way over to this gem! We did not have a reservation so we queued up with the others waiting. About 8 people ahead of us, but it only took about 10 minutes before we sat at a little 2 top outside. What a perfect Rome experience! It was difficult to decide what to order but I feel like you can't go wrong here, so get whatever looks good to you! Everything was amazing! read more

Absolutely the best meal we had in Rome. Everything was fantastic. Highly recommended!

This place is like a little hidden up a street near the Trevi fountain area but it's nice and calm little street to eat the food was good and they gave us a little Prosecco as we waited in line. The truffle pasta was underwhelming I got it because I saw most people get it on the review pictures but it honestly tasted like nothing it was just okay it needs like a little something more but the artichoke was really good and the lamb chops too read more

A very cute spot for a good meal by the Trevi Fountain. Reservation recommended as the area, while off the beaten path, remains busy.

The waiter was very good at recommending wine to go with the meal. read more

Piccolo Arancio is hidden down an alleyway near the Trevi Fountain, so unless you're really wandering or you already know about it, you're not likely to come across it. Despite this, it was packed! We were seated at the only open table when we arrived around 10pm, but you can make a reservation as well. The menu is extensive and its posted outside so that you have plenty of time to make your selection. Our server was friendly and personable. The Fried Squash Blossoms stuffed with mozzarella cheese as our starter were passable. The fried coating didn't have much flavor and I was hoping it would have more cheese inside. I went with the Fettuccine al Salmone as my main dish. The noodles were quite fresh and the salmon cream sauce with bits of cooked salmon was delectable and not heavy at all. My friend ordered the Oxtail and was a huge fan. I definitely recommend this restaurant to those visiting Rome and wish there was one near my house! read more
