The waiter didn't admit his mistake and actually blamed *me* for it--I never ordered two sandwiches, and he didn't bring the pizza that I *had* ordered.

Our tour guide did share the Tivoli people are very unfriendly. Unfortunately we felt it today.

The tasting menu definitely seemed like a meal for two people! The waitstaff was super kind and unbelievably friendly. I was traveling and exploring Tivoli on my own, so it was nice to have a welcoming waitstaff. Here are my thoughts of each menu item: Trionfo di mare: 4.5/5 - enjoyed the assortment of fish! One of them was super fishy, and some pieces weren't super tender, but still tasty overall Scialatielli con ragu di spigola e datterini: 4/5 - plenty of clams, and the sauce had a strong clam taste. Would be nice if the sauce had some flavors other than clam flavor (maybe some herbs would help) Turbante di spigola con verdura croccanti: 4/5 - beautiful presentation. Fish could be more tender. The crunchy vegetables pieces were so tasty Pastiera napoletana - 3.5/5 - not my favorite type of dessert (obviously prefer chocolate), but it had a nice, cold texture. Missing some flavor

To call this a 'Pizzeria" is to lose something in the American translation. It is NOT your typical Roman pizzeria, and it is certainly not your Orange, New Jersey one either.

This took me back to my child hood spending time at my great grandmothers house and her cooking for us. We started with the meatballs and the bruschetta, the cook also brought us some spinach filled puff pastries that were good also. The meatballs were perfectly cooked, had a great sauce good amount too. I only ate the traditional tomato bruschetta and the fresh tomatoes and the fresh toasted bread with the salt and the olive oil were a perfect match, the other bruschetta was an olive tapenade and some sort of cheese, not a huge fan of olive tapenade so I didn't eat it but my wife and our friend said it was good. I ordered the carbonara, and I will say that it was the best we'd had on our trip and we were in Italy for 9 days, most places put too much egg yolk, over powering the other flavors this was just right perfect amount of cheese and the Speck(bacon) was fried perfectly and although I've heard that al dente pasta is the way to go I prefer mine done and not so al dente and so does this chef as the Tonnarelli was perfect! We also shared a beef filet which was seasoned perfect just a little salt and pepper cooked medium rare! My wife had the lemon crepe. I had one bite and it was great, my wife loved it as well. For drinks my wife had Preseco and our friend had a glass of house red which they enjoyed. I had a coke and my daughter had a sprite, when trying to explain sprite to the cook they also gave us an Italian Lemon soda which we all shred and it was refreshing and delicious. For dessert we shared the chocolate cake, the apple strudel and the wine cookies. The strudel was fluffy slight crispy and had a caramel apple filling! Then only thing wrong was I got too excited and burnt my tongue. The chocolate cake was perfect, six little pieces freshly made. The cookies were good, little hard but we dipped them in our cappuccino's. If you're in Tivoli please stop by and get a great meal!

It had that energy from the moment you sat down that you were about to get some good food. The service was solid too. We had a big group but our waiter was super accommodating. But yea, if there was thing I can recommend, it is definitely ordering a calzone.

Luckily we found this place on Yelp and the menu looked pretty decent. The ambience isn't great and the location (in a mostly abandoned shopping center) is a wee bit dodgy, BUT! We're so glad we went because it more than lived up to expectations in terms of food. We ordered the caprese salad, bruseola starter, hare ragu, and tagliata di manzo. The caprese unfortunately came with greenish tomatoes which made me a bit sad, but the bruseola salad was massive and more than made up for the disappointment! The ragu was excellent, and the tagliata was extremely tender and filling. Above all, the service was excellent- the manager was very helpful with translating any item on the menu for us, selected superb wines for us. The waiter was extremely sweet and attentive, and even set up a terrace table just for us to enjoy our coffees and complimentary butter biscuits. Wow! Loved these guys. Do yourself a favour and go! Total was €51 - veryyyyyy reasonable for all that food and drink.

The staff was very attentive and friendly. When I'm in a new area I always ask what menu items are typical, the things the local people eat. For the pasta dish, while the Carbonara was "typical" the server also highly recommended the Mussel pasta dish, featuring the flavorful and plump de-shelled mussels in a very light sauce with herbs, mild peppers and cherry tomatoes. This was the chef 's own summer creation. So happy she recommended it. The flavor of these delicious mussels was the star in a cast of interesting supporting flavor notes. The "sheep" skewers were further evidence that this chef focuses on the elegant simplicity of the flavor of his main ingredient...in this case small lamb chunks grilled on skewers...That was it, pure and simple, and simply delicious. If you prefer heavy sauces and seasonings when you're dining out, based on my menu choices this is not the place for you. But if bringing out the best in a main ingredient is the goal L'Ape 50 scores!
