    I made a reservation on Christmas Eve, I had the apperitivo, primo piatto e secondo. Everything was wonderful. I sat outside and they could've lighten the fire for me, but besides that, everything was amazing. Had a wonderful experience.

    The food is bland and cold at some parts. It would have been better if they served simple italian food on the menu for new years eve, and not as if it is from a fancy restaurant. Pretentious - the term to describe the whole menu, at best.

    We visited the restaurant last night, and the food was decent. We would highly recommend the pasta with tomato and basil, which tasted really good, as well as their tiramisu. However, the semifreddo dessert was rock-hard and lacked flavor. The service was friendly, but we had to wait more than 40 minutes for our food, and some of our drinks were initially forgotten.

    DELICIOUS!!! off the beaten path. Close to Roma Termini and Colosseum part of town! The most delicious pasta dishes! The Carbonara….(chef’s kiss) and their Pomodorella (spicy pomodoro) out of this world…let’s not forget the tiramisu that was unlike any other I’ve ever tasted. This is a little hidden gem and well worth a visit! We went twice during our visit to Rome. Super friendly staff as well! Mauricio was so nice and funny, really made our night!

    Lovely restaurant with even lovelier food and people. You must try anything that has tomato/tomato sauce at this place, it is scrumptious. The carbonara is the best at the Esquilino area and it shows. Try the pannacotta! Bacci from Portugal

    the waitress was not welcoming and kept insisting we take a look at the entrees and the desserts after we told her we only meant to stop by for some carbonara the last of our trip to rome. she kept begging for us to take a look at the entrees, get wine and get dessert... we felt very uncomfortable. the carbonara was good but nothing special.

    The staff were excellent and the food a really 5 star experience - true Roman food of high quality the wine selection very good. Recommend the fried artichoke - this is a Devine experience, the meatball starter very good and the lamb main simple in ingredients but full on flavour. Next time I am back in Rome I will be introducing this delightful restaurant to more people.

    Nice restaurant with good prices and within walking distance from the Termini Train Station, if you're around. I had read online that the Cacio e Pepe pasta was really good here, and indeed it was. The personnel was friendly and welcoming.

    Very disappointed… We booked a table with The Fork (20% off), and we ordered 2 primi (pasta dishes) and one secondi to share (grilled squid). The pasta were quite nice but the squid was really disappointed (no taste at all and no sides, only 2 cherry tomatoes and a bit of rocket salad). But the worst was the service. When we asked for the bill, the 20% off were forgotten (on a 46€ bill), then we ask them about the price and they came back with a 48€ bill less 20% -> 40€. The problem is not to pay 4€ more, it’s to be scam because we are tourist. An advice : go away…

    The taste was very good. Only the size of the portion needs to be bigger but we ate primo and antipasti as well, and second portion was a little bit little. In overall I recommend the restaurant to everyone, an experience to eat there.
