This is amazing family restaurant with delicious food

I discovered Antico Carbone as it is around the corner from the apartment my daughter and I rented; she uses a wheelchair and the restaurant was so accommodating to our needs. More than that, however, the food is delicious, and the staff unbelievably friendly and kind - we went back the next night, and then the last night we had in Rome once my husband joined us! Do make reservations to make your life a little easier, they stay busy, for good reason. Special grazie to Paola, Emiliano, Alejandra and I think Michele (the host on 6/4/2026) for such a wonderful welcome and experience.

Where to start? The staff is so incredibly kind and accommodating (my daughter uses a wheelchair), the food was absolutely delicious (the ravioli!) and fortunately it’s just around the corner from our rented apartment.

Excellent staff and service.

Our waiter was phenomenal; he spoke English, made recommendations of local fare, and described dishes unfamiliar to us. The food was excellent overall ( the bruschetta was a tad underwhelming but the chicory was wonderful). Both of our pastas were hot, homemade, and full of flavor. My class of Chianti hit the spot as did the lovely chocolate cheesecake (Americans-not your expected thick cheesecake but more of a whipped light white cheese with chocolate on top). Would absolutely dine here again.

Very good pasta and very good service. The tiramisu dessert was not the best; I believe you can do better. Highly recommended for pasta and antipasti.

Tourist trap with very pushy workers. Felt like we were being forced to eat our food and it wasn’t even good

The restaurant is best off all

The place is just marvelous, it’s a beautiful Roman osteria where they serve excellent dishes at more than reasonable prices, we were served by Emiliano who made our dinner memorable, he speaks Italian, English and even Spanish. At the end of our meal he gave us some digestives and some delicious ciambellini. 100% would come back!

Party of 4 , we have eaten here before when under different ownership and were not disappointed with the change. The food was very good and a mix up with one dish was quickly resolved with good humour The wine was excellent, service relaxed and we will return next year

Our family visited Antico Carbone last night for dinner. We were able to make a reservation online. This is a lovely family owned restaurant. The manager stopped by our table several times to ensure we were enjoying our meal. Outside seating was full so we sat inside. The restaurant has air conditioning which was welcome after walking thru Rome all day. The meatball appetizer, Pasta Bolognese and Carbonara were Excellent! After enjoying a relaxing meal we were given complementary pistachio aperitifs and almond cookies. The cookies were so delicious we asked for, and received more. Highly recommend stopping by Antico Carbone when you are in the Trastevere area!

Luigi, the maitre d', is an engaging and interesting fellow. The ambiance was that of a locals gathering spot; homey, unpretentious. But the food was top notch.

We booked with 30% discount and when we arrived we mentioned the discount they said yes and then charged us the whole fee. Nobody warned us. And we made the reservation with fork especially for the discount. Misleading info by fork
Antico CarboneGentile signora , mi dispiace tanto doverla contraddire , ma la sua prenotazione non prevedeva alcuno sconto del 30%.
