Taverna Trilussa - Roman Near Me - Rome, RM

Best Dinner in Trastevere Tucked away in the heart of Trastevere, this dinner was unforgettable from start to finish. We began with perfectly crisp fried squash blossoms and melt-in-your-mouth prosciutto--both light yet packed with flavor. The star of the evening was the house special tonnarelli: handmade pasta, beautifully balanced and bursting with rich, authentic taste. The veal was tender, expertly cooked, and deeply satisfying, while the cheesecake provided the perfect, creamy finale. Every dish felt like a love letter to Roman cuisine. Perfect ambiance for a romantic dinner or casual dining Great service, and a menu that truly delivers. Highly recommended! read more

Four of us had dinner here on a weekend night. We arrived on time and were seated immediately. Many people were waiting. We had a reservation. We sat outside and the atmosphere was lovely. Service was great! We all started by splitting the Suppli americiaiciani, the Grilled artichoke, and the Zucchini flowers. Best zucchini flower of the trip! Perfectly crunchy in the inside appropriate amount of stuffing and stuffing had flavor. The other two appetizers were also very good. For our pasta courses, we got cacio and Pepe, carbonara, and ravioli. The cheese and spinach ravioli was the house specialty and it was very good. This was the best carbonara of the trip! We all agreed! Although other pasta dishes were good, We didn't like that the cacio and Pepe and the ravioli dish were served in the pan. We skipped dessert. We still talk about this carbonara dish! read more

Service great Food really great Atmosphere was good We sat outside in the patio which was hot on an August night but it's a very busy area with lots of great energy. Tons of good restaurants to visit. We had reservations and we were greeted warmly and felt like they were happy to have us there. They were very accommodating, friendly and responsive. We ordered some light appetizers - get the artichokes and meat charcuterie. The salads like most spot come undressed so you can add whatever you like to make it taste how you like - a little olive oil and salt and pepper are quite lovely. The pastas were perfectly Al dente with fresh flavors. The bread was complimentary and super yummy. They were a full house but you didn't feel it. We would go back in a heartbeat. We highly recommend. Only bummer is we didn't get a pic of the desserts which were great - tiramisu, lemon ice cream and this fruit with mascarpone. All good. read more

Tourist in Rome. I get it, not everyone is a fan but if you are a restaurant and a service provider, one would expect decent service. That's why it's a 3. My family and I felt very awkward. Server was less than impressed with having us (I felt anyway!) and on his phone in between staring at us. We chose two bottles of wine. Nobody's glasses ever got refilled throughout the meal which I found odd considering it's a high end restaurant. (If you're Italian, you'll be fine so don't worry!!!!) Giving some positives..... Food was great (be warned if you don't like eating out of a pan though! lol) Wine was tasty. Pricy but kind of expected. Suppli was the best I've had in Rome so far. Dessert was good but felt rushed to finish and be gone. I chose this place as it looked great on Tik tok with all the celebrities going to eat, but as a mere family visiting, it wasn't the fantastic experience I expected. Sadly. read more

When here based on a recommendation from a friend and it did not disappoint. If you want the true Italian experience, please stop here. We went at 9:45 and didn't need a reservation but I would recommend getting one if you want to eat earlier. This was our favorite meal of the trip. The pasta was made fresh and they even brought out the pan it was cooked in and then served it on your plate. The sauce for any dish is mouth watering. All the staff were friendly and gave great recommendation. read more

Exactly what you want when visiting Rome. All of the food felt authentically Roman, not just the typical Italian dishes you find in the States. The carbonara was excellent, and my gnocchi with langoustines and mint was both unique and delicious. The atmosphere inside is classic and old-school. read more

One of our favorite meals of the trip, I enjoyed the amatriciana pasta and hubby the osso buco. We had a great server who helped pick a terrific bottle of wine. Cozy and bustling, the vibe was just what we wanted. Bonus points for being walking distance from our hotel across the river and adjacent to lots to do in Trastevere. read more

Outstanding! Easily one of my favorite restaurants in Rome. The food, service, and ambiance are all top notch. Absolutely no complaints at all. read more

We had an amazing authentic dinner at Taverna Trilussa in Rome. It's located in the hip Trastevere neighborhood. This neighborhood boats so many great restaurants, literally you can't have a bad meal there. Service was awesome and the wine my server recommended was divine!! The Bucatini all' Amatriciana with pecorino cheese and homemade bacon is a must try!!!!!! The pasta is fresh and delicious!!!! Try to make a RSVP if possible. We lucked out by getting a table. read more

I think the true rating of this restaurant (for a foreigner) is exactly 2.5/5.0. The food is as good as the 5-star reviews claim, and the service is as bad (if not worse) than the 1-star reviews claim. This is the best food we wound in Rome--hands down. From the US, we noticed the service was lesser in Italy (perhaps result of no-tip culture); however, this was the worst service we encountered, without a question. If you speak only English and present very American, come at your own risk. It's comically bad treatment. We only got the reservation because a five-star hotel concierge made it for us. Again, incredible food. Much credit to the kitchen! read more

We had the truffle parm steak and the bucatini alla gricia. We were drawn here since it was recommended by a lot of celebrities. The food was good, but nothing crazy. It lacked a bit of hospitality compared to our experiences in other parts of Italy. This was also one of our more expensive meals in Rome. read more

Definitely my favorite meal in Rome! The concierge at our hotel had recommended we try it out. We were so glad we did. We were seated inside. When you walk in you walk by a case with black truffles in them. I was drooling as we walked in walked in the door. We started with their Ravioli Mimosa (a two time award winner). The ravioli was stuffed with cheese and served with a DELICIOUS creamy sauce. I believe it was topped with pieces of scrambled egg, the recipe is a secret though. We also had burrata and prosciutto. It was obviously wonderful. Finally for mains, my husband had the seafood pasta and I had the carbonara topped with TRUFFLE. What I would give to have one more taste! The service was okay, as I found with most if not all restaurants so I let that slide. However, these are tastes that I will never forget. You've gotta try if you are in Rome! read more

My wife couldn't stop talking about this place. Best food, wine, vibe etc. Now that she's shared this gem with me... I can't stop talking about the food, the wine, the staff, the feeling! Don't miss this one. read more

It was really delicious, probably our best meal in Rome! We were able to call the same morning and get a 10 pm reservation on a Tuesday- I imagine it is much harder to get a reservation on the weekend so call ahead. We loved the zucchini flowers appetizer. For the main meal we got the ravioli mimosa, carbonara with truffle and the tonnarellli with ox tail sauce, all were good but the truffle carbonara was by far our favorite! $140 euro meal with bottle of wine read more

In the last 20 years I have visited Rome 72 times, and Trilussa is the best restaurant in all of Rome. I have tried dozens of restaurants, but there is nothing better. The food, the service, and people are unforgettable!!! This is where the Italians go to eat. They have the best "Amatricana" in Italy. It's a pasta dish you must get. Order it and let me know. read more

Probably our favorite meal of our trip. Lasagna and pasta carbonara were the best we had in Italy. It made for a lot of disappointment for the rest of our trip, kind of wish we would have gone there last....but overall delicious. read more

By far our favorite meal in Rome. We weren't sure what to expect initially as they sat us outside and near a service station but as the meal went on we realized we had the best seat in the house as we got to see the servers finish and plate many of the dishes right by us. We went with the several course tasting menu which came with various wines too which really made it a good deal even though it was a lot of money. Every single bite of food they brought out was amazing, and the service and atmosphere were so nice, befitting a really romantic and memorable meal. read more

I have been to Rome 63 times. I work there every 4 months for a week and Taverna Trilussa is the best restaurant in ROMA. No one makes better pasta. We know because I've been to all the good ones. Massimo and Maurizio the owners run the place with passion. The chef makes the food with love. They have the best AMATRICANA in Italy. The #1 Roman dish. There is a huge waiting list but don't miss it. Let me know how much you will love it! Bernard & David Hiller read more

Don't wait- make your reservation now. What a lovely experience. Everything about this place is beautiful - the ambiance, the staff and most especially the food. We ordered our food with perfect recommendations from our waiter- who also suggested perfect wine pairings. We started with the roasted octopus - incredibly tender and flavorful. Then we had the bucatini in tomato sauce and the carbonara with truffles - both were delicious! Made with the freshest ingredients and cooked perfectly really a lovely evening. Made reservations for our next visit next week - chef's kiss to all! read more

Truly one of the best meals I've had in my entire life. If you like truffle you will LOVE the truffle pasta. read more

Great food and service. Love the location and the ambiance. Definitely recommend it to everyone

Taverna Trilussa is a well known, and highly regarded, classic Roman restaurant in Trastevere ("beyond the Tiber"), an area known for its winding streets, lively piazzas and vivacious nightlife. Taverna Trilussa is more expensive, quieter and more staid that its neighbors. This is the place you take your Nonna or your out of town business associates for dinner. Fancy, but not pretentious, with an extensive menu and an excellent wine list. While the food is very good, it lacks the soulfulness of the area. The service is very good as well, but you get the sense that they are relying a bit too much on their reputation. As much as I wanted to give them 5 stars, all that the food warrants is a 4. read more

The restaurant came highly recommended by our concierge at the pantheon hotel. The server was extremely friendly and nice. The food was mediocre. The pasta's were all very al dente even thought asked for well cooked and extremely salty. The only excellent pasta was the truffle pasta. read more

Taverna Trilussa is an iconic restaurant in the trastevere foodie region of Rome. There are so many good places to choose from but if you're in the mood for ravioli then this place can't be beat. Their ravioli mimosa is an all time favourite and is a special blend on the inside that they insist on keeping secret. For good reason too; this dish is creamy and tossed table side at times giving you the full effect of Italian service at its finest. The beef filet is hearty and extremely tender. However, I snuck a bite of the grilled lamb off my fellow diners plate and it was quite juicy and delicious as well. I never go to an Italian restaurant, especially in Italy itself, and don't indulge in stuffed zucchini flowers. They're just my absolute favourite and I bet it was the world class olive oil that they were fried in that made it that much more sublime. It's hard to make a choice of what you want considering everything looks mouth watering at Taverna Trilussa but whatever you choose, you can't go wrong. read more

Taverna Trilussa: After encountering countless restaurants in Rome with only one lonely vegetarian pasta option, Taverna Trilussa was a refreshing change. I actually had trouble deciding what to order. We wound up with the strozzapreti in cherry tomato sauce and the ravioli mimosa (a secret recipe). The strozzapretti was delicious and satisfying. The ravioli came in a creamy sauce that was vaguely cheesy and wholly delicious. Not the cheapest dinner option in the area, but I would definitely go back. read more

In Rome for 4 days after a 10 day visit in the country. I called while in the states trying to get a reservation with no answer. Tried again when we arrived in Italy (not Rome - no answer). When we arrived in Rome, I called 13 times throughout our first day (evening & night) with NO answer. At this point is was comical that I couldn't get anyone to answer the phone & they don't take reservations via the internet. We showed up at exactly 7 to see about a walk in & we're unfortunately denied dining. What a sad & disappointing experience for a place we were so eager to try. If your looking for hospitality in Italy - try elsewhere! read more

A bit pretentious as the food does not live up to expectations. Food is good, but not great. Cincinnati Kori Bellone Pas Dosè 2021 €34. Golden color and a bit mellow. Good value sparkler. Cantini Balzano/Kellerei Bozan Lagrein Perl 2021 €30. An excellent example of this grape and style. Fried mozzarella in pastry. Mild and unctuous. Rigatoni in cream sauce with sausage. Smooth cream sauce. Mild sausage. Gnocchi stuffed with mild Gorgonzola and with fresh tomato sauce. The gnocchi was too dense--not pillowy. Served in a beat up saucier--a gimmick which is totally out of place for fine dining. + service - attentive and friendly + cloth napkins with logo, made in Italy + tablecloths + hefty (no label) flatware + large (100s) wine list + padded commutable chairs + bagno with toilet seat + tavern atmosphere, but high-end feel, enjoyable read more

Gotta be quintessential Italian cuisine! Homemade pasta that is to die for. My carbonara was great as was wife's ravioli. Fired on 8 cylinders with apps and sides but a bit stingy on the wine pours. read more

Came here upon recommendation of a trusted traveler and was lucky that our hotel was able to make us a reservation. It was simply a sublime meal, and I was so grateful for the patient staff as my daughter had a jet lag-related meltdown. I cannot wait to return with my husband so we can enjoy the truffle menu together, but the lobster pasta with fresh truffle was sufficient to tide me over. A memorable experience; I will always now recommend Taverna Trilussa! read more
