What a pleasure to return to Il Ciak 31 years after I first tasted their Pappardelle al Cinghiale and find the flavor, atmosphere, and friendly staff still as memorable. Such a beautiful evening in Trastevere.

Stumbled upon this place as we explored the Trastevere area. Didn’t disappoint and will be back again.

Simple authentic restaurant. The food was excellent - fabulous steak, the service pleasant and the atmosphere (outside) is nice, lively but without car traffic. Good wine list as well.

The meat dishes here are terrific! My husband had a ribeye steak and I had ribs. Both were delicious. The potatoes and the roasted peppers were very good sides. We prefer to eat outside in the good weather, and in Italy that means the smoking section. Since the tables are so close together it would be nice if one side of outdoor dining could be non-smoking. Nothing like a table of 4 blowing hand-rolled cigarette smoke across your food and wine to really ruin the experience. Obviously we could have eaten inside, but seems contrary to the Trastevere summer vibe. Definitely worth a visit!

Steak and pasta was incredible. One drawback was the croquettes came out cold - but did not disrupt the entire experience

Great Beef As Promised

Amazing ambience, we sat inside and the decor and music were perfect. Although my 6 year old might have lowered the level slightly when playing the restaurant's piano :) Il Ciak is a meat eater's dream. Plenty of different steaks available and the intermittent wallop of the butcher's cleaver only added to the atmosphere. We ordered Caciofi alla giudia, patate fitte, coda alla vaccinara, lamb chops, mixed salad and finished with the tortino al coccaliato. Apart from the salad (which is probably to be expected in a meat diner's paradise) everything was excellent. My favourite was the Ox tail - coda alla vaccinara. The tender, succulent meat easily fell away from the bone, and practically melted in my mouth and was cooked in a delicious tomato based broth - sublime! Finished the meal with my first, but not last, amari. Last, but not least, the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Party of eight - food wasn’t great, three people had the ‘roast lamb with potato’s’; the lamb were cuts of knuckle with barely any meat at all and lots of fat. The accompanying grilled vegetables were cold. Overall those main courses were barely edible.

We had a fantastic meal - we shared a Rubia Gallega steak, some wonderful vegetables, and enjoyed the ambiance outside. Attentive service, amazing food. And thanks to the Fork app, we enjoyed a discount.

Really good food quality

Excellent food quality and a very nice and warm place, keeping the atmosphere of Trastevere alive, even in an era when heavy tourism has alternated the physiognomy of many spots in the eternal city. Highly recommended.

Great choice! Excellent food, supreme meat. Professional and friendly service! Grill and meat at sight so that quality can be visible. Absolutely experience to be repeated

The meat was good with big portions. The side dishes were bit expensive for the quantity and quality. The person who hosted us was very kind, but the service in general needs to be improved. The atmosphere was nice.

This is such a cute restaurant. Everything they recommended was delicious, especially the steak and the wine. A nice change from all the pasta I’d been eating. Will go back each time I’m in Rome!

The grilled dishes were exquisite. The waiters were attentive and nice. Cost ambience with red checkered table cloths and movie posters and photographs on the walls.
