This dining experience was really memorable and offered a romantic atmosphere with excellent service, great wine, and amazing food. Can’t say enough positive things about this restaurant as it felt like a true authentic Italian experience. The tables were nicely spaced apart and was one of the quietest dining experiences we had in Rome. We did the tasting menu and enjoyed the rigatoni, cacio e pepe, oven roasted lamb, and braised beef cheek. Everything was phenomenal, tasted amazing, and left us wanting to come back. If you are visiting Rome, this is most certainly one place you should want to check out. The Michelin Bib Gourmand recognition is well deserved with this restaurant.

Found this restaurant via Eater. We didn’t have a reservation and had a big stroller and two kids.

They were able to accommodate our family with indoor seating and space for our stroller.

On top of this family friendly service the food was amazing. My wife and I tried the Eater recommended 5 course meal for only 39euro what a steal! Just check out the presentation in the pictures. This restaurant lives up to all the reviews.

Outstanding traditional Italian eatery! When I first told my Italian friend that I was planning to visit Rome, the first place they recommended was Hosteria Grappolo d'Oro -- this classic spot is located a short walk away from Piazza Navona and the Pantheon, so it's a quick trip from most of the classic Roman tourist destinations. There's a ton of natural light from their giant windows, so it's a great spot to visit during the daytime, especially since they also serve an outstanding three-course lunch set for only 34 euros a person. While a bit pricey for lunch, it's absolutely worth it -- the food is delicious and the portions are sizeable, so you'll leave very full and very happy.

The meal starts off with a three-piece appetizer combo made up of small samples of a few traditional Roman dishes. It started off with a super light and refreshing panzanella made with fresh tomatoes and black olives. The tomato was tangy and sweet, which paired wonderfully with the briny, salty, and fatty olives. This finely chopped, almost paste-like salad went wonderfully with their table bread and was a great ode to the summer. The center appetizer, the cod fish mousse, was probably my favorite bite of this course; it was super smooth and light and had a pretty mild flavor but with a slightly fishy, umami undertone. It went great with the bread, but I honestly loved just munching on this on its own. I didn't get a chance to try the last appetizer, as it was a beef meatball and I'm a pescatarian, but my friend really enjoyed hers (and mine).

For our primi, both of us got the cacio e pepe. The pasta was perfectly al dente, and it was quite a generous portion. The pecorino romano was a little nutty and salty, and it mixed together with the oil and pasta water to create a rich, velvety sauce that just barely coated the spaghetti. The cracked black pepper offered a much-needed hit of spice to break up the richness of the cheese, and it was, all around a phenomenal dish.

We diverged a bit on our secondi; my friend ordered their beef and I got the Roman-style cod. The thinly sliced beef was incredibly tender and had a super flavorful, rich red wine sauce. It came with a few pieces of braised veggies, but it felt like the dish could be made a bit more balanced with a slightly larger side. On the other hand, my Roman-style cod was served with a generous portion of sauteed spinach. It was a smidge too salty, but I loved having a few extra greens. The cod was super flavorful, and I loved the zesty, tangy, slightly sweet tomato and olive sauce. The tomatoes were super fresh, and I loved the slightly briny flavor the olives brought to the dish; it honestly reminded me a lot of the panzanella served with the appetizer, so it was a nice way to make the whole meal feel a bit more cohesive. The cod was, unfortunately, quite overcooked, so it felt a bit rubbery, but it was still tasty and I loved the extra bit of texture from the pine nuts on top.

Our dessert was a lovely scoop of mascarpone ice cream topped with a sour cherry and wine sauce. The ice cream was a bit tangy from the mascarpone, and I loved the slight bite from the sauce. It was also served with a small wafer, which was super crispy and reminiscent of an ice cream cone.

This was a fantastic place to eat. Firstly, the servers are very friendly. They help and make you feel comfortable. Secondly, the atmosphere is sublime. Very intimate and cozy. Thirdly, the food tastes out of this word. Even something as simple as the bread was fluffy. The bacon fettuccine pasta and lamb are delicious, paired with their red wine. Finally the price is extremely reasonable. Highly recommend.
