    We were four people and we each had 4 courses. Every plate was excellent. The chefs choice selection of mixed taster entree’s and dual pasta course were also excellent. They recommended a Red wine that was a delight. Very enjoyable experience and very attentive front of house staff. Highly recommend.

    This restaurant was really highly rated on trip advisor so I was super excited to give it a try, and I’m glad I did! Staff treated every customer like they were the only customer in the room, food was incredible and the staff were courteous and patient when it came to the wine (I was really unsure what to pic, but what they picked out of me was absolutely beautiful). All in all, I will 100% come here again when i’m in Rome next!

    Thank you very much Alice !!! You’re really kind You and your family are Welcome back at any time

    This neighborhood restaurant lived up to all of the excellent reviews. It was walking distance from our hotel, which was perfect. The food was unique and delicious! The service was impeccable. The wine pairing recommended by the server was perfect and was not reasonably priced! Definitely check out this restaurant if you can!!!

    A very cosy place, excellent service and equally good typical Roman cuisine. A must when in Rome.

    Chose this restaurant based on the high rating on both Google reviews and trip advisor. Very disappointed. They knew in advance this was a birthday dinner and we expected it to be special. It was but not in a good way. We arrived 10 minutes early of our reservation and were told no insides tables. It was very cold so we insisted an inside table. So they gave us one in the back. ???? The pasta appetizer was fantastic. But my mother asked for pino griso and I white wine. Both pours were from the same bottle with the server telling her they only had one type of white wine. The service was horrible. The bathroom had no paper. After 2 1/2 hours no one asked how dinner was. Do we need anything else? Or would you like dessert. We followed a large party that was also fed up to the front to pay since neither of us received a bill. And they could care less when we told them we were unhappy. Many great restaurants in Rome. This is certainly not one of them.

    Lovely restaurant, lovely and friendly staff. Food was delicious and very reasonably priced! Would recommend. I didn’t drink as I am pregnant however my partner had a bottle of wine from the region as a recommendation from staff. Great choice and complimentary of the courses he chose.

    Booked due to the hype. Very enjoyable evening, but there would be a couple of dishes that we would give a miss. Great service, very friendly. We walked from our accommodation near the Trevi Fountain, so quite a distance so glad it wasn't raining!

    By going far away from the tourist area we hoped to get better and different options. All the food was cold and tasteless. The overall experience was pretty bad.

    A lovely restaurant in a quiet residential neighborhood. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The food was excellent and a great value for the money. Be sure to make a reservation well in advance!

    The restaurant focuses on pork cheeks in many different preparations. The food was awesome and the service was the best. Take your time and no rush. An outdoor table on a beautiful night just the right temp and no rain. All the dishes were prepared perfectly along with a good wine selection. With the $ and Euro at parity, this was a great value. Recommend for anyone.

    The food and service were excellent! At first I was frowned upon for being a solo diner. Like I really wanted to be dining at such a great place alone~not! But when I spoke Italian and ordered a nice meal I asked the waiter who was also the maitre d if it was ok that I was alone. He brushed it all off. The place could use some interior design and ambience which was all terrible but the food and service ended up being 5-star. 1970 tan color. Hey I’m a designer myself. Can’t help but want better design. Value was excellent and exceeded expectation.

    We had dinner at L’Altra Guancia whilst in Rome and our expectations were high due to it being #1 restaurant on Tripadvisor in Rome. We were really disappointed by the mains where the cod was so tiny, overcooked and expensive and the veal was tasteless. Probably the worst dinner we’ve had in our two week trip in Italy and one of the most expensive.

    The pasta ameritricana dish was one of the best pasta dishes in my life! The house red wine and bottled water were great and downright inexpensive. The service was very good.
