😠 Absolutely awful!! Waiter added a €5 tip to our bill without permission (totalling a 16% tip) which was not at all deserved as we had decided we would not be tipping due to student budgets and an underwhelming meal. To be fair we didn't check google reviews so partly our fault. However, completely m... People often mention good,

    Absolutely awful!!

To be fair we didn't check google reviews so partly our fault. However, completely misleading to what appears to be a nice setting for dinner. Two pizzas ordered, both not special at all, one with only 3 pieces of salami, and the other with only 5 olives all within 0.5cm of each other - and one piece of artichoke on a capricossa pizza. Don't even bother this place - not even worth one star

    Four of us came to eat and it was so average. The whole experience was ruined by other people smoking. I can take a little bit of cigarette smoke but we had young chain smokers next to us who were oblivious to how they were affecting others. When I politely asked if they could hold their cigarettes to the other side of the table so the smoke didn’t billow on us, they sneered and ignored us. Waiter was useless and couldn’t help either. Food was quite expensive m, probably because of its locale to the Trevi Fountain. Pasta was nicely cooked. Sauce hot. Drinks cold. Portion sizes were pretty good overall. Beware of being lured in by the restaurant touters. Service was so and the staff somewhat ambivalent. Will not return when there are other places eager to take your tourist $’s.

    Awful. Service was the worse I experienced in Italy. They get the order wrong twice and didn’t even apologize. I asked what would come with the Insalata di mare and the waiter described a TOTALLY different dish of what I get. A lot of other costumers would also complain about the service. They also include taxes such as “tips” besides the usual tax of 10%, what is unacceptable considering the poor quality of the service.

    Tipically Romans first dish: Amatriciana, Carbonara and Gricia. A pretty aperitivo with prosecco (welcome drink) and good Aperol Spritz by menù. A no good wine selection under 35e, but you know, we are in Roma, in the middle of the center. Free WI fi. Wellchair access 20/25 e for a quickly lunch/dinner. Recommended very good place #amatriciana #carbonara #gricia #roma #meal #verygood

    Very bad! Don’t go. They seem to be very nice, they tell you to order their special dish, in put case meat, and we paid in total almost 100€!!!! We only had salad, water, 2 glasses of wine and the dish they told us to share....incredibly expensive!! In a tinny table. We had to pay all that just for being tourist!!!!!! 🤬

    It is sad to see so many poor reviews, as this place was fantastic!!!! We stumbled upon this place, after our reservation was cancelled due to a power outage at another restaurant. We had a small table in the alley and greeted by a gentleman I believe is the owner. He was so nice and sent his grandson or son over right away to get us settled. He was new, so a bit slow and forgetful, but then his relative came by to check on us and all was well. The food was so good, that we headed back another night during this trip. Great service and care for the customer, very generous with the Limoncello!

    Stopped for a coffee. Not good. Tasted like water with froth and grit. My wife’s tea was served in a glass (?) which made it impossible to drink.

    We stopped here for a quick lunch. The food was hardly "Very Good" more like adequate. The wait staff seemed annoyed from the beginning taking an extreme amount of time to bring us water, take our order, and even check to see if we needed anything. I understand meals are eaten at a slower pace here in Italy, but this was over the top. The scenery is probably the only reason we gave this ristorante a 2nd star. PLENTY of better food in the area don't waste your time or money.

    Bad value for the price, nothing special at all, very below average, not even close to its name ‘VeryGood’. Please do yourself a favor consider some other restaurants nearby other than this.
