The rooftop was quiet and had a garden field. I really loved the fried calamari and prawns - lightly fried and flavorful. The focaccia was a disappointment - basically a cracker the size of a pizza. Good environment and I recommend this spot if you are in the area.

Our kind waiter bright over water, bread and breadsticks. No olive oil, no butter just dry. For our lunch I decided on the cacio e Pepe and Lisa opted for the ragú. Both were delicious. For dessert we were told the owners mom made lemon cake so that was a no brainer. It was fabulous and paired well with espresso. Our waiter also brought us Amaro. It's a licorice like liqueur enjoyed as a digestif. Definitely an acquired taste that reminded me of Aguardiente. Overall the service and staff were exceptional and I would return if ever in a Vatican City again.

The reason I wanted to try this place was because I was craving lasagna, and the reviews had it as the best. The lasagna was decent, but I felt it could have had bit more seasoning for my taste. My husband ordered the carbonara pasta, which was really good. My favorite dish was the tiramisu, which was delicious! The restaurant has a lovely ambiance with pretty paintings and chandeliers. The service was also excellent. Our server was attentive and checked on us frequently. However, the food did take a bit to arrive, which I think could be improved. As I mentioned, it's a great place for gluten-free diners, but if you're not, you might find a better option elsewhere.

This time we nearly had it every day, and for 8€ a bowl you can't blame me. Must try is the pappardelle ragu, portions are enough to share for two.

This is a review based on getting my pasta to go…read more This was my first meal when I landed in Rome, so my travel group was hungry and very excited for our first Italian/Roman meal. Therefore, we ordered one of everything Hey, why not? Right?! It was definitely fresh pasta because you see them making the pasta from flour to all the different types of pasta shapes. And fresh pasta tends to stick together when cooled down. Here is the ranking of how I liked their pastas. They were all good but this is based on my flavor preference and how good everything was after bringing it back to the Airbnb. 6. Strozzapreti al pesto 5. Spaghetti Cacio e pepe 4. Fusilli al pomodoro 3. Strozzapreti al tartufo 2. Pappardelle al Ragu 1. Spaghetti alla Carbonara I think my ranking might have changed drastically if I ate everything on the spot. As you can tell by now, my recommendation is to eat it there as soon as you get your order. ¨ It was really good for being "take-out" style. Def worth stopping by for guaranteed yummy fresh pasta. So, if you have stomach space and are contemplating, yes, go! Worth the virality and hype. But I wouldn't suggest eating here every day. You're in Rome, explore! Try to find another yummy spot! ¨ Things to know: -Like most of Rome, they accept cards. -When you order, if are you getting it go, let them know so that they can pack it for you. -After you order, they give you a pager so you know when your order is ready. -If you order to go (I would suggest not if you can eat it there fresh) and if you have a bit of a walk, I would not suggest holding the bag by the handle cuz the steam of the food made our bags rip slowly. I'm glad we realized this because we would've been sad if all our pasta landed on the floor. And the covers do get warped by the steam, so everything shifts around. So, don't be like me - swinging the bag happily. Be more mindful. -Wait time can vary. Mine wasn't too bad cuz there weren't a lot of people. -The only problem with eating there is that there is no seating. So, I wouldn't have been able to get every single pasta dish to try. Pros and cons of eating it fresh and hot vs eating comfortably in AC.

We asked if the Brunello was good (at 20 euro a glass it should be). What we received was off in color, and it honestly tasted syrupy like it had been open for many days. My husband and I have a passion for wine and we know when something is off. We told our server that the pizza was good but the wine was not good at all. He told his boss but he just wrinkled his face at us and proceeded to add an additional 3 euro to our tab (a bar fee? But we didn't get it at the bar, we sat outside). My advice... before you order any wine by the glass here you should ask if you can taste it first. We learned this lesson the hard way.

Heard that the best place to try carbonara was in Rome, and it was incredibly delicious here - creamy, fresh, and so flavorful. Far surpassed any carbonara I have ever had before. Also tried their cacio e pepe, which was also the best we ever had. (And they were also the best of anywhere else on our trip to Italy!). They don't take reservations here - you just stand in line and wait for your table to be available. We only waited about 20 minutes, and we took a table outside. Overall, highly recommend stopping by for some delicious pasta when in Rome.

So, so yummy! And the carbonara!!! Oh my. Easily one of the best I've ever had. When I told our server how much I loved it, she reminded me, "It's the best in the world!"

The restaurant is cozy and refreshing with lot of white marble and light colored decor. Mamà Ristobistrot is a great place for tourists and locals alike, but it's not overflowing with tourists which is nice. The food was absolutely excellent! We started with apps: warm focaccia and olive oil, eggplant and zucchini patties with tomatoes, and prawns and mint. All the starters were super flavorful. The prawns were some of the best we've ever had! For our main meal, we had the paccheri pasta with chunks of sea bass, tomatoes, and capers as well as the prawns entrée. I highly recommend Mamà Ristobistrot for anyone wanting lunch after visiting Vatican City!
