8.5/10Pretty nice in general, good food, live piano music, good atmosphere. Though they didn't do coffee without lactose or with vegetal milk. Also, they forgot to put The Fork discoint in the bill so needed to remind them

10/10This place was wonderful! Food, service, ambiance. All were incredible. Had a reservation which helped for our party of 5. Piano player was so fun and took our requests. We all had something different to eat and every choice was fantastic. Such a great spot! Highly recommend.

10/10The piano player added such a lovely ambiance to our dinner, and he played some of our favorite tunes (Frank Sinatra’s “My Way” and The Beatles’ “Michelle”). The food was superb; I had the best lasagna I’ve ever tasted, and you can’t go wrong with the fried Nutella balls for dessert!

10/10This place has the happiest vibe—everyone seemed happy to be there enjoying good food and the delightful love piano playing. Can’t think of a more pleasant place to enjoy a carafe of wine and a plate of bucatini all’amatriciana.

8.5/103rd time coming here. Wonderful place, food, ambience and service. And of course Flavio the house pianist. He just gives the place the icing on the cake. See you next year

9.5/10+tasty food at a fair price - a bit to many tables in a to small space for our taste. We sat next to the piano, we are not a fan of life piano during dinner and sitting right next to it was to loud for us But appart from that, deffinitely one of the better restauranys inthat neighbourhood

5/10Italian food for unaware tourists. Wine is served by someone not having any knowledge of any wine or regions of Italy. Food is served by someone having no knowledge of the ingredients or Italian cuisine. The pianist saved the atmosphere and the evening.

2/10The pasta dishes and pizzas were not very good, the service was slow, the outside dining area was right up close to a narrow busy road, and the icing on the cake, they added a 10 Euro service charge to the bill, then claimed to have no change when we paid in cash, to try to add on nearly another 10. There are so many better restaurants in Rome - this is one to avoid!

8.5/10We booked a table and after waiting over ten minutes we were ushered through to a tent style area at the rear of the restaurant. We refused to sit here and waited another while as they set a table out front. The food was nice but not piping hot. There was an elderly gentleman playing the piano which benefited the ambiance.

2/10We had a reservation and when we went in they told us to wait outside. Then let another group walked right in. Eventually they signalled for us to come in and stuck us in a back room next to the garbage. We decided to leave instead of being treated this way. Will not be back.
