November 10, 2024 9:40AM…read more Treasure hunting/thrifting is one of my favorite past time and doing this in a different country is something I enjoy doing. Yes, Porta Portese has more of a flea market vibes but it is so huge that you are bound to find something neat if you're patient enough. I browsed through some vintage stands and didn't find anything to bring back... but was able to find a nice pair of new baggy jeans on the other side of the market toward the residential area. On our way back we were able to find some local artwork in post card size to bring back for friends and family. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area and into treasure hunting. Highly recommend to come check them out on the weekends if you're in Rome.

Visited on a Saturday and found a great deal on a luggage that I needed for gifts to take back…read morehome. I bought a brand new 27" luggage with wheels; this luggage was selling for $160 in the heart of Rome. The seller tried to sell it to me for $60 then I countered with $35 and he said $40, which I accepted. There are a lot of retro items that I would've loved to buy, but it would've been too heavy to bring back to the U.S. We ended up buying a Beatles vinyl record, fans (4 for $1), and other small items for gifts. This place has everything and it felt like we walked for miles one way only! Don't be afraid to bargain, they'll work with you!

This place is fantastic. Upscale Italian food with neighborhood vibe. The wine list is nothing…read moreshort of excellent. My favorite is the Conterno Fantino Sori Ginestra Barolo 2003. Marco the chef is creative and friendly and greets many guests by name. I don't speak Italian but every time I have been there they have made me feel welcome, providing help with the menu and ordering. Be sure to make a reservation in advance. The place really starts to hop at 21:00 and goes strong into the night.

Having moved from London to Rome about 9 months ago, I have really been enjoying the Italian dining…read moreexperience. The dishes are almost always a wonderful blend of seasonal, fresh and flavorful ingredients. No over-processing. No overly reduced sauces. However, perhaps because I am living here rather than being a passing tourist, I have been growing tired of the stereotypical trattoria ambiance at most eateries. Therefore, I was ecstatic about discovering Primo al Pigneto. Located in a cool, edgy street in a working class neighborhood, the interior of Primo is like a slice of Soho, NYC or Palermo Viejo, Buenos Aires in Rome. The dishes consist largely of traditional Roman fare with a modern twist. The pasta all'amatriciana I ordered was excellent, as were the lamb shank and game hen that our friends ordered. The tagliata that my husband ordered was a bit less successful, as it had a tad too much fat that I would have preferred cooked at a higher temperature. (We didn't order antipasti and dessert as we weren't very hungry.) The wine list is extensive and reasonably priced. The place is not cheap, but it is all reasonably priced. Expect to spend about 40 euros per person for two courses (including wine).

The most lovely experience while visiting Rome…read more Claudio has beautiful vintage jewelry and antiques. I particularly loved the quality of the Rosary collection. These relics are real gemstones; from a time when rosary's were made with great precision and the prayer beads felt warm to the hand. Each piece I purchased spoke to me of the past and the presence of those who wore the rosary and held vigil in prayer. I loved this wonderful shop so very much. Go here. Take time to enjoy Claudio and the relics of time. Grazie from Hawaii! Aloha!

Shook on it, and they took down contact info. They would estimate shipping and get back to me. A few days later shipping came back as $1k for no insurance, and just a FedEx tracking number. Crazy but fine, I guess they wanted more money. Tried to get wire info, but they just ghosted me. No response for two weeks. Eventually I called them and they said deal was off because they allegedly had another buyer or were no longer fine with the price. Don't do business with these people.
