We spent a few hours at the Vatican snd were looking for a place for lunch. Knick Knack Yoda had a…read morecool sounding menu and it is right across the street from the Vatican area so we stopped in. We actually chose a table outside because it was a nice day. Nobody approached our table in about 5 minutes; so we decided to go in and ask for service. The gentleman inside said he didn't realize we were there and he came out with some menus for us. They had lots of cool sounding burgers and sandwiches; plus a full bar. I ordered a chicken sandwich that also had cheese, bacon, and barbecue sauce. It was really delicious! The bun was super fresh and the cheese was very melted. It came with thinly sliced, circular potato wedges. They were unusual; but just ok tasting. I also had a blonde beer which was recommended by our server. I really enjoyed the beer. My sister ordered a burger with cheese and bacon. She said it was good; but she didn't want to eat the bun and all the cheese stuck to it when she attempted to separate it. She also had a few Aperol spritzes which she said were really good. Overall we did like our food and they were served on cute little wooden plates. Although we initially wanted to dine outside; we realized it wasn't a great idea because we were continually hassled by African vendors selling bracelets. (There were literally at least 10 of them: however they all used the same corny sales pitch.). The food was great; and it came out rather quickly. If you want an outside dining experience: I would suggest you sit a little closer to the building.

This is where I ate my first burger in Italy... when everyone told me not to eat burgers while…read moretraveling there. Good thing I listened to my instincts and to Yelp! because this place really ruled! Here, I had one of the best burgers I had eaten in quite some time. This place offers up mostly burgers--either made with ground beef or sausage. We tried one of each, and both meats are super tasty! Beyond the tender, first-rate burger patties, however, are the speciality toppings they serve on their burgers. I'm pretty convinced after eating at Knick Knack that you probably can't go wrong with any of them! Tony tried the Nevermind Burger, which a number of Yelpers had raved about. I tried one with BBQ sauce and mushrooms. We went splitsies on burger halves so we could each try each other's concoctions. OMG! I just couldn't take it. Both were just utterly mouthwatering! Oh, how I wish this place were in my own back yard because I'd be there right now!!! Note that while this place is located pretty much right across from the Vatican, we found no tourists there. It's like a hidden secret! But, then again, mosts tourists are probably looking for pasta. Glad we weren't!! This place was amazing!

People served poor quality high priced food. We learned our lesson for this second trip and are using Yelp too. Thanks to Yelp and Pane & Vino, our first meal in Rome was fantastic!!!! All the sandwiches have this incredible and well seasoned juicy roast of pork except one which is the burger. Each sandwich has a different bread...red is colored with tomatoes from Mt Vesuvius. Black is colored with squid ink (don't worry there's zero squid flavor). Yellow is colored with Turmeric! My husband got the burger. It was absolutely delicious! I got the special...HELLO! Incredible and big so you can totally share it or take your time they don't push you out. There's alcoholic options along with sodas and waters to drink. The owner is wonderful! He refers to his restaurant as his house (so he'd never charge a fee for you to sit and eat there) and his menu items, creations, are his "children." He speaks 6 languages fluently so no worries if you don't speak Italian, he also speaks English, Spanish, French, and then 2 others that aren't Latin based. (He also speaks an additional 2 dialects not so fluently but hey, he's doing well in my book and very helpful to the 4 different couples and families that were in his tiny restaurant while we were there. Eat here afterwards before your Coliseum tour. Also, he's happy to give you suggestions for the area...he recommended a gem nearby of ST Clementine basilica to go check out some newly discovered ruins! It was incredible and we would have never known without him offering. We loved the food so much that we made it our last meal before leaving Rome as well!

A yummy thing happened on the way to the Colosseum …read more.. Pane & Vino is a tiny sandwich shop near il Colosseo that specializes in local porchetta (stuffed pork loin) and is run by the friendliest owner of all time. He gets to know every customer on a first name basis. I'd go back more to see him than to have a sandwich. Seriously, he's pretty awesome. The menu is simple and focused on sandwiches featuring their famous porchetta so we tried two recommendations from the peppy proprietor. While waiting, I got a miniature bottle of Chardonnay and my spouse sipped a Coke Zero. The Traiano Porchetta sandwich (12€ - 4 stars) is an original creation of the out-going owner with a mighty Mustard-flavored blend of Roast Pork, Sun-dried Tomatoes, and Grilled Eggplant. I like mustard and, therefore, liked this specialty much more than my wife, but we ended up ignoring portions of the so-so bun. Pane & Vino Special Porchetta (12€ - 4 stars) was a huge sandwich with the sliced Roast Pork Porchetta plus Mozzarella Cheese, Grilled Eggplant, Grilled Peppers, Mushrooms, Lettuce, and Mayo on classic Italian Pane. It needed more mayonnaise or a sprinkle of balsamic and olive oil for my tastes, but there was no denying it was a hearty hero. There are lots of pane bread and sandwich shops in Rome, but there is only one -- Pane & Vino -- run by the most welcoming of owners ever. If I'm in the neighborhood again, I'll be sure to stop in for a casual chat and some yummy porchetta sandwiches on the way to the Colosseum.
