Servers were lovely and the food was delicious! Even the bread with olive oil was lovely

Excellent choice of restaurant, predominantly seafood, but also for typical romantic food “di terra”. I enjoyed the atmosphere typical Trasteverina. Service was good standard everyone was helpful. I would come back again. Try the bottarga antipasto. The place is slightly noisy but probably because of the good wine list that is making people rise the voice level. Good selection also for sweets - dolci.

This place is what Italian food is all about. Great ingredients, great flavours and perfectly cooked. The razor clam starter was excellent. Grazie mille

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED - This is an example of a restaurant that specializes in something (mostly seafood) and gets it absolutely right. The appetizers were perfect - carciofi Romano and Punterelle salad. The entrees were delicious - John Dory and Calamari. The staff was knowledgeable and friendly. We went twice on our 5-day trip. Don’t miss it.

We came here two nights in a row it was so good! They have gluten free pasta available. We went with seafood dishes and they were all excellent. The gluten free chocolate dessert was also delicious

This was, without a doubt, the best restaurant we tried in Rome. Although we had no trouble getting a table, I recommend making a reservation. I think we were lucky because we arrived quite early just as it was opening, but it quickly started to fill up and many people were left without being able to dine here, which would be a shame to miss it! The service is very attentive and detail-oriented, and the menu is so full of amazing options that it’s actually hard to choose. I also recommend it for people who are lactose intolerant or allergic, as it can be hard to find lactose-free options in many restaurants. We had the calamari to start — they were delicious and super tender. The spaghetti alle vongole was without a doubt the best pasta dish I had in the city. The stracciatella mousse with chocolate really surprised me, and all of this was accompanied by the best Aperol Spritz we had in Rome. Although the prices are a bit higher than in other restaurants, it is absolutely worth it if you’re looking for a great place to eat. And for the quality and service they offer, I’d even say it’s quite affordable. It will definitely be my number one choice when I return to the city!

This is a classy, up scale, attractive atmosphere with indoor and outdoor dining spaces. The interior is nicely decorated and bright. You will be eating on table cloths with well spaced tables. Perfect for couples to impress and quiet for conversations. Food menu is refined, diverse, and interesting. The wine list will assure availability for a compliment to your dinner or lunch choice. Don’t miss out on the superb cannoli or lemon sorbet.
