10/10We had a fabulous dinner there and tried multiple items... the Frito misto, Alle gricia, Carbonara, Amitricaina, the meatballs in a mushroom sauce. All were wonderful. We also had a red and white wine as well as an aperol spritz and those were very good too. Highly recommend!!

10/10Our favorite meal in Rome, perhaps in all of Italy. Everything was delicious and the owner/host was wonderful, sharing with us about her mother’s recipes, all of which were fantastic. Recommend the eggplant, roasted vegetables on flatbread, cod fritters (yes, try them, I promise) and meatballs with mushrooms. The veal with ham was, in a word, stirring. Setting was so warm and even romantic, service was lovely and so very pleasant. I would recommend Il Tarallo to anyone and everyone.

10/10Absolutely perfect experience! Not only was the food the best we had in all 4 days we stayed in Rome, but the owner personally came by our table several times to make sure we were enjoying ourselves. On top of that, the price was exceedingly reasonable, and the serving sizes generous. Make sure to ask for the homemade desserts of the day! If it's available, we particularly loved the pistacchio cream.

10/10We had two delicious meals at Il Tarallo during our recent trip to Rome. There are many popular restaurants to choose from in the Trastevere neighborhood, but if you are looking for a more sedate atmosphere with food that is cooked with care, you should book here.

10/10We had pastas: Amatriciana and Carbonara, meatballs in a white mushroom sauce and chicory. All very tasty. The wine and first course were served promptly but we waited about 40 minutes for the next course. We were seated outside in a little quiet street and enjoyed chatting with the people at the next table so the wait was pleasant. Definitely recommend
