I rarely leave negative reviews, but last night’s experience at La Canonica was poor enough that I feel compelled to share it so others can make an informed decision. We had a confirmed reservation for 9:00pm, yet on arrival we were told to join a long queue. It quickly became clear that the restaurant had accepted far more bookings than it could realistically accommodate. Having a reservation should mean something; standing outside waiting at that time of night completely defeats the purpose. When we were eventually seated, it was outside, despite the temperature being around 2 degrees. There were nowhere near enough heaters to make this remotely comfortable. Eating dinner in winter conditions like this is unacceptable and immediately set the tone for the evening. Unfortunately, the food did nothing to recover the situation. When it arrived, it was cold, poorly presented, and sloppy. It gave the impression of a kitchen under pressure and rushing dishes out simply to cope with volume

It was my birthday, and the server was so warm and welcoming. The food was fresh and so good that we went back.

The food was fresh and delicious, and the atmosphere was great. We visited on Christmas Day evening but prices were just the same as every day, and it was good value. Our waiter, I think his name is Marwen, was very helpful and attentive. Highly recommend.

Service (1st came the salads and then the plates, they didn't take the empty glasses and plates unless we suggested to), kind waiter Matteo. Food (average amatriciana & carbonara, caprese average, lasagna up to decent)

Not great. More American style with serving things such as Alfredo and very odd on mixing a marinara and pesto with ravioli.

Tourist trap, food was terrible, tasteless and overcooked made in bulk. Rushed by staff in order to finish dinner quick and leave so the next guest can come in.

Yes, the ambience is the one good thing about the restaurant. But the food was average at best and the servers were border line rude. I overheard that the lady near me was overcharged and sent her bill back so I was more careful about my bill. They did the same added 2 limoncello to our bill when we hadn't ordered it. So be careful and check your bills.

The food was very good service was fast and efficient. The only "but" we hate when waiters demand their tip, we always leave good tips, buy being force to leave it is something we hate.

Delicious food and very attentive wait staff. The lemon sorbetto in the lemon was delicious! Highly recommend this restaurant. We chose because we were staying in Trastevere but worth a visit.

The service was wonderful. Our waiter spoke good English and was friendly, polite, and had a good sense of humor. The pizza and salads were delicious and the limoncello spritzers were refreshing on a hot sunny day in Trastevere, Rome.
