I really do not understand the negative reviews of this restaurant. I had excellent service, in fact the waiter came and sat with us while we tried the Cacio e Pepe, which is one of the best meals I have ever had by the way. Also, it is out of the tourist area, outside of the main part of Rome,... More

People on here, sound like they have had bad experiences. But for me and my wife, we loved every minute. I told the owner I was fed up with being crucified, at every other restaurant we went to.

It's worth the trip to Trastevere and will not disappoint. The service seemed like it would be better if you were a local but that did... More

My spouse and I were told to find this restaurant while in Rome. We found it and had a nice meal. Both meals were good and priced similarly to other reasturants we ate at. Staff was friendly, we were there right at the start of lunch service.

Local food, good service, reasonable prices, good atmosphere
