Had a great lasagna "The Chefs Special" here. And the dessert was just delightful. The service was as good as the meal. I certainly had that being in Rome feeling.

We ate at “I Vascellari” last night. I purchased a GroupOn several months earlier and called a few nights earlier to place our reservation. This is a nice little restaurant in Trastevere. When we arrived we were greeted and given a choice of any table in the restaurant with a “reserved” sign on it. Lots to choose from at 8:15pm... More

We walked past this one looking for a place to eat in Trastevere. Being American we were a bit early and the placed looked empty, but it was well reserved for later dining and they fit us in and treated us very well. The food was very good and the service was equally good. The menu is a bit limited,... More

On our first night in Rome we stumbled across this little Trattoria, as it was a few blocks near the Bed and Breakfast where we were staying (Arco del'Laura). My husband ordered the Lasagna, and I chose the Cacio e Pepe (cheese and black pepper on spaghetti) and Rosemary Chicken. The food was the best we ate during our entire... More

Dining in Rome for me as an American is hit or miss with very little inbetween. iVascellari is a defninite hit. We had reservations at another Trastevere restaurant but when we arrived the doors were still locked, even though it was 30 minutes past official opening time. The staff saw us at the door but no one responded, so we... More

We stumbled upon this restaurant and came back again after our first great experience. While the owner doesn't have many people skills, the waiter on the first night more than made up for it. On our second night, the waitress only spoke Italian but that made for a fun experience also. Food was great both times- saltimbocca, lamb, pasta, dessert... More
