7.5/10The food was amazing but the service was awful. We turned up 15 minutes before our booking and asked if we could have a drink and wait. The restaurant was empty and they said no and turned us away!!! We had to ask for everything and at times we felt forgotten. A real shame.

10/10Our dinner on Christmas eve, was literally the best experience we had in Rome. There was a fix menu with so many dishes, we could not eat them all. Everything was so tasty and the stuff was so polite. We left the restaurant with full hearts and stomaches. Definitely a must! P.s. such a great white house wine!

10/10Best meal in our 2 week Italian vacation! Restaurant staff are excellent - providing the Perfect balance between attention and allowing us to enjoy the time together. We shared a first course of a crab fettuccine that was world class and then had a second course of encrusted turbot with thinly sliced potatoes, and a green pepper entrecôte that was perfectly grilled. The meal was so good we are intending to repeat the experience on our last night in Rome!

10/10We found the staff very friendly and the food was excellent. We went back a second night so we could all have the sea bass in a potato crust. It looked fabulous and tasted so good! The atmosphere was lovely and the food and wine were very good value.

10/10We are a family of five an had a fantastic evening at Il Ritrovo a San Giovanni. The waiters were firendly, patient and lively. They were also very helpful with suggesting courses from the menu matching our indications. The food was simple but the quality was exceptional. We had five different main courses between us. They were all fantastic. We had three different deserts that also were perfect. We found the quality to price ratio to be very attractive and the overall experience very enjoyable.

10/10We let our food and wine be decided by the recommendations of the incredibly friendly and helpful waiter. The starters and the meat accompanied by a bottle of red wine were absolutely exquisite. I would recommend this restaurant to everyone!

9.5/10Fantastic food, we tried the mouths-watering homemade pizza and pasta, yummy grilled fish and seafood and a die-for steak that was cooked as per our request rare to perfection. Staff was super attentive and friendly, the owner ensured we were happy throughout and even put the Champion League match when we enquire if possible, delighting our party of 7 (including 3 kids).

10/10Two of us had pranzo ("lunch" doesn't do it justice) on a Sunday, after making a reservation. When we arrived at the restaurant there was a sign on the door that it was full. The food, the service, the ambience were all topnotch. We ordered the two different tagliatelle dishes, the seabass encrusted in potato, the iconic artichoke alla romana and artichoke alla giudea and, for dessert, the cheesecake frutti di bosco and sorbetto al limone. Everything was delicious. We recommend this restaurant without any reservation.

10/10Very nice atmosphere, informal. The service was very nice and friendly. The place was full and it was told us that we have to wait 30 minutes for the pizza. But pizzas came in about 20 minutes, maybe less. At the end we got also a limoncino and of course the reduction from the Fork

10/10This is the second time I have been to this restaurant. The food and service were both outstanding, confirming the experience I and those of my friends had the first time around. Not only was the service excellent, but the staff was outstanding in its kind attention to us. This trait involved not only our dining experience but also extended to the parking outside the restaurant. They made that easy too, no small detail in Rome.
