    It felt a bit sketch going down by river and past some trash bins. We were there in November so few people dining there. It was a beautiful day and eating along the Tiber River was lovely. All the other diners appeared to be Italian and the waitress did not speak English. The food was good and the setting a quiet respite from the city and not far from Piazza Dei Popolo. We had toured Borghese Gallery in the morning and it was a lovely walk from there to Terrazzo Pincio for the view and then down the stairs and short walk to the riverfront. i was glad we chose this spot.

    Fun dinner and dancing! We were on a weekend in Rome with friends, and we had dinner there on Saturday. The food was very good, as well as the service and atmosphere. After dinner we had some cocktails, and had some dancings. The music as well was very good! Highly recommended spot!!

    If you're looking for something away from the tourist path - this is your spot. It's on the Tiber river and has a lovely ambiance while onboard. Be mindful that there are no fans on board, and it can be hot in the summer so plan accordingly.

    We enjoyed the food and service very much. Tuna tartare and beef tartare were equally delicious. Fresh food and pleasant waitstaff. Homemade ice cream was delicious.

    It was an amazing experience in food. The atmosphere is amazing and they even put a candle in my girlfriend's Tiramisu! I wish they could sing a song as well, but I truly understand that it may be a little bit disturbing to the other visitors. Thank you for the great experience and care!

    So happy we found this restaurant, what a unique experience! Beautiful location, beautiful food, beautiful atmosphere! We had the most delicious meal, and the restaurant was more than happy to cater to my vegan diet too. As for the atmosphere, the bar side of Baja was absolutely live and exciting! There was karaoke happening when we arrived so of course we had a great night joining in and dancing along to everyone else! I think we were the only tourists in there, it seems like a hotspot for locals, but to be honest it made the night even better, really authentic!

    We had a decent meal at Baja. Service was a bit slow and thought it was odd that dinner service didn't begin until 7:30 pm. Food was great except for the Tuna tartare which was highly disappointing compared to the other places we had it at on our trip to Italy,

    The food was immaculate but I wish I could say the same about the service! I requested a table with a river view as it was our wedding anniversary, but instead they sat us by the back of the restaurant by plants that had a lot of bugs that got into our water, wine and food, as well a view that was facing the owners boat house and storage. They also said we couldn’t move tables as they were fully booked, but we ate and left before tables turned up, so we could have had the seats requested. Unfortunately, my wife and I cannot speak Italian or read Italian, so we needed help with the menu. When we explained this to the waiter, he seemed bothered to have to help us translate and rushed through the menu with me and my wife didn’t even hear him or understand. Food is a 9, the rest is a 3. Hope you have a better visit if you decide to go 👍🏼

    We had such an amazing experience at Baja. We always love eating dockside and Baja did not disappoint. We relied on the amazing wait staff for food and wine recommendations. We even tried the squid which was spectacular!! They treated us like family and we will definitely return!!

    It is a great stop off on the way to Stadio Olympico if you are looking for a decent lunch and not the standard pre match pizza slice lunch. It is pleasant sitting in the sun by the river and away from the crowds around the train stations. It is clearly a popular weekend spot with the locals for lunch out.

    What a unique and delicious experience! We had a delightful dinner in this river’s edge, floating restaurant. The food was wonderful and the ambience was lovely and romantic. I’ll note that I’m not a big fan of dogs in dining areas, but this seems to be ok with the restaurant owners. Overall, an excellent experience.

    We enjoyed a wonderful evening sitting by the river. The waitstaff is exceptional, very attentive and most helpful in making suggestions. The fresh fish was great and the cheesecake and tiramisu delightful! The bar area has a fun vibe so you can sit there or in the open air. The mallard ducks and otter swimming by was just a little extra special. Definitely recommend this place.

    I have only one big complaint about the place. Even though I made the reservation some time ago, they gave the worse table to us. When we arrived there were no people and I asked them to give us a better table. They told us that all the tables are reserved. We spent such a long time there and at least half of the tables were never occupied until we left. We went there for the river view and ambience and we ended up with a road view even though a lot of tables were empty during the time we spent there which was such a big disappointment. Food and the place were Ok. Also, they didn’t have an English menu. So I accidentally ordered wrong food -waiters allowed me to change it which was really nice and kind.

    The boat looks great on the water and they honored our request for a seat by the window. The food exceeded expectations, but the dining area was a little rowdy due to a few large groups that were near us. It also was difficult to get a waiter’s attention.

  • Ian K.1 review

    There are two reasons to go to Baja: the first is the location, a floating restaurant on the Tiber River and the second is the food. The restaurant is elegant and the view on the Tiber is lovely. The food is very good, matching location. The dishes are creative, beyond classic Roman cuisine. For a tourist new to Rome, one challenge is finding the restaurant. The restaurant is below the river embankment. Our cab delivered us to a location that turned out to be a few minutes walk to the road crossing and stairs down to the river. Another challenge is that the this is not a tourist restaurant (although everyone was very nice and helpful). The menu is only in Italian. Google maps helped us find the stairs to the river and Google translate helped with the menu.

    Lobster pasta had very little lobster meat and I had to ask for lobster implements to crack the claw, staff did not supply straight etc. This took away from the experience.

    We liked the most the location (clise to piazza poppolo) view and the design of the restaurant, in the river, one Can escape from the Noise of the city and relax. The food and service were very good. Try the nocciola for dessert, was really good. All in all a nice and diferent experience
