Great location on Corso Vittorio Emanuele between Chiesa Nuova and Sant'Andrea della Valle, we literally ran by it as we got off the bus. A new experience for us -- veggies, seafoods, or meats fried in a light batter with seasoning, and served up in a paper cone. The hot fresh calamari was so good we had to try more... More

Excellent fried italian food, great finger food for a lunch or quick dinner....excellent wine selection....service 100% personal....as food goes out of the frier goes to the cartoccio and to your mouth! 100% recommended!

Also wine was very good, both red and white, and, above all, prices are very cheap!!!... More

One sometimes feels cheated in such a tourist mecca as Rome is because they eat badly and pay much. This little place is just the opposite. The food range is very specific - they serve exclusively deep fried foods, but they have achieved perfection at making them! You'll pay 5 euro for a portion of fried fish (squid, prawns, etc)... More
