10/10I go here every time I have a guest visiting Rome. It’s a great place to try all the classics! I was first brought here by a local myself so you know it’s the real thing.

7/10check in at restaurant we advised that we had a reservation. they did not ask name. brought us to a table. my husband does not drink so he ordered a birra senza alcohol. they had none. I ordered carbonara which I had 3 x during our 2 weeks in Italy and had been amazing, pecorino and iuanchale or speck. except here. so dry and otherworldly extremely salty. when the waiter checked on us it had coagulated. at end we had to remind him we had fork discount.

10/10The food was super nice and the restaurant lets us get away from the crowded rome, to a cozy little dinner. We enjoyed it so much and it made our first dinner in Rome super special! The staff was super kind and the food was delicious!

9/10Just a short walk from the Colosseum, it's an unassuming gem of a place. The service was excellent, the place is quiet (even outside). We had Danish beef steak, which was cooked to perfection, sea bass which was was quiet but tasty, and pretty much the only complaint I had was that the pasta was a little hard. Both Panna Cotta and Tiramisu we're excellent. In short, a wonderful dinner.

8/10Our first full meal in Rome did not disappoint. The house red wine was good, starters (beef carpaccio and Caesar salad) were just right. Due to being tired I read the menu incorrectly and ordered a grilled chicken breast, but it ended up being a good mistake on my part bc it was just what I needed. Others in our group enjoyed Carbonara and another pasta I can’t pronounce.

6.5/10Our dinner was on a Monday night. Few people dining there. Missed the ambience of a busy restaurant. Thought the food was a little bland. Service was good.

10/10This was by far the best pasta we had in Rome! We have gone twice in the last ten years and we loved it both times. We ordered the chefs choice and were never disappointed! It’s absolutely worth the stop.

6.5/10The waiter was very harsh. Group of 7 and kind of barked at us when first came to table. Ordered 1 bottle of wine “to try” and states no free samples. Tried to explain bring one bottle and will order that or another depending if table likes the wine. Off to a rough start. He did get a little better with service. A nice young lady came around for dessert order all of which were yummy. Antipasto board was nice and everyone enjoyed the food. I made reservation for 9 on The Fork but 2 people had issue and could not attend. I was reported to The Fork that I did not fulfill my reservation.

7.5/10Food was good they cooked the meat as we preferred, only down side was we had a couple of things added on the bill we didn't have. Apart from that I would recommend this place for local food.

9.5/10Molto bene! Grazie a tutti! The food was delicious and the location was perfect for a day spent touring Domus Aurea, San Clemente Laterano and San Giovanni Laterano. We weren't rushed and really enjoyed our 2 hour lunch enjoying the Roman Classics and some house specialities.

8/10We had a nice time. The waiters spoke English so it was easier to order. They were very kind and attentive. I should have listened to the review about sitting outside. It is literally next to the street and the traffic was busy. They have a little plant wall but I suggest they maybe also put up a plexiglass on the exterior to block the sound even more. My cacio e pepe was really good. My husband ordered something that he didn't like the spice used but overall he said it was ok. It was just a lack of understanding what was in it. The house wine was EXCELLENT. Overall this place was nice. It was our last meal in Rome (and Europe) and it was memorable.

8.5/10The food was great, but the service chaotic. I don't know if they got more customers than expected when we were there, but it was disorganised, especially when it came to paying the bill.

6.5/10Food: the menu says "spaghetti alla chitarra" what they served were simple spaghetti Service: the restaurant was almost empty I had to ask twice for a bottle of water (first time the waiter forgot the order!!!!) He used to call my mother in law (white hair) "Ecco cara" with a confidence which reaches impoliteness in Italian

10/10Nice dinner with typical Roman cuisine. Pasta cacio e pepe and great artichokes cooked “alla giudia “ a very traditional Roman recipe. Very good red wine from Appia Antica, very close to Rome! Nice atmosphere, good and professional service. When in Rome we will come back!!!

8.5/10the food was delicious and the service was delightful! I wish we lived nearby so that we could have sampled everything on the menu. The hardest thing was deciding what to order and it only left us wanting to try more. I wish the lighting at the outdoor tables was better - it ruins the ambiance on the sidewalk tables where we sat. Inside is probably a more pleasant atmosphere.

9/10Delicious food, friendly service and outdoor dining on a beautiful October afternoon. Tables separated from street with planters - dining just inches away from speeding, noisy traffic. Indoors dining room is cozy and welcoming.

9.5/10Nice place near to the Coliseum. Typical Roman food , tasty and abundant. Hope to repeat after the pandemic is over to eat inside (looked charming) rather than outside, too much traffic noise. (Only negative aspect)
