Cosy place with quality food, and wonderful dessert. We tried ribs, tiramisu and crème brûlée - and all was amazing. Pasta with ragu did not impress me that much, but the main experience was great.

A cozy, local gem in the Travestere area. The service was exceptional - friendly, relaxed and knowledgeable. We had a great conversation with the owner and tried the Sicilian Cannoli for dessert (Dolce), it the owner’s Sicilian grandmother’s recipe that even Tony Soprano would approve. We loved this locally owned, quiet, neighbourhood restaurant and would highly recommend it.

Two sisters run the place. They served me my coffee in the most beautiful coffee cups that were their nonna’s. The food,decor and hospitality made it a wonderful evening. They take so much pride in what they do and it shows. They made a crème brûlées with pecorino cheese that was awesome.

Nice and cosy restaurant 5m walking from Piazza di Santa Maria in Trastevere but away from the noisy touristic streets. Good home cooking food,good service very nice and calm ambience. The interior of the restaurant is colourfully decorated but we preferred to stay outside under the porch and the garland lights. Good value for money

The food was excellent. We ate cacio e pepe and carmponara, both of them was 10/10.However, the big hit of the restaurant is tiramisu! Don’t hesitate and go straight to it.

We came back here after a first experience 2 years ago and were told that the ownership changed. No problem, as the place is still quiet and peaceful, even though it is just 150 metres away from the busiest parts of Trastevere. Hospitality is top, the quality of the food above average, and prices are moderate. One of the classics on our shortlist for Trastevere.

Best food we’ve had in Rome!!! Tried three different appetizers, all were delicious. Main courses also very creative and delicious - the dessert was out of this world! Lovely decor and super friendly staff. We enjoyed it tremendously and will most certainly come back next time we will be in Rome.
