This dinner was fantastic! It was a recommendation from a local and we were not disappointed in the least. The lasagna was amazing, and we enjoyed a nice Moscato to cap off our dinner. Our server, Simone, was the best—super attentive and went above and beyond. Be sure to ask for him!

The food was really really tasty. We ate the mixed salad and the pasta with seafood (this particularly was top-notch), panna cotta with pistachio (forgot the exact names). Simone was great a server.
The only little minuses of this place are that they were just a bit slow with the food (nothing too major) and that it is very narrow inside and not enough space to move (most italian restaurants in Rome are like that, but this one felt a bit narrower). However, we were delighted with the quality of the food and we recommend it.

Simone and the other staff were amazing. Tried to get as in as fast as they could despite being a long line! Food was delicious and service was quick and amazing. They’re attentive. Ordered the carbonara with pistachio and was very yummy

A fantastic restaurant we were so pleased to find this charming jewel with the best hospitality in Rome.  We had a wonderful evening and the guys made it a fabulous night with banter and the excellent wine recommendations from Rana, can’t wait to return.   Highly recommended

WOAH! The food here is incredible! We tried a bit of everything. The pizza, pasta, calzone, etc. Everything was 10/10. The service was really good as well! The aesthetic of the place is very unique and lovely. Would come back! They also have free WiFi. Rana was wonderful. Ask for him :)
