2/10This restaurant was the worst place I’ve ever been to. We arrived at the time of our reservation and were told the restaurant was fully booked. We told them we had a reservation. The hostess immediately went to the back to talk to the manager. The manager came out saying there was an issue with the computer system and that our reservation was cancelled (They came back speaking Italian—even though they spoke English when we first got there—which I can understand but can’t speak). We asked if they could place us in the empty tables, but they apparently were reserved. At no point did they ask us or did we tell them the name of the reservation. How could they know our reservation wasn’t booked without knowing the name of the reservation? How could the waitress forget how to speak English in 3 minutes? This restaurant is so unprofessional and unprincipled.

il problema è stato del sistema, ci dispiace se la vostra prenotazione non è andata a buon fine. dare VOTO 2 al food senza nemmeno aver mangiato pero' mi sembra quantomeno inopportuno.

9/10We had a lovely meal here on our last night in Rome. I had the Maltagliati with truffle and bacon and it was absolutely delicious. There was construction works outside on the street, but we were seated downstairs and it was a lovely dining area. The staff were lovely. Would definitely recommend.

4.5/10Food and upstairs ambiance are mediocre. Staff was pleasant, but you typically need to call for them to help. Overall okay, but wouldn’t recommend.

10/10We had a wonderful dining experience at this restaurant in Rome. The food was absolutely delicious — especially the pasta, which was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The menu featured a great selection of authentic Roman dishes, including tripe, artichoke, and chicory, giving us a true taste of local cuisine. Prices were very reasonable for the quality and portions. The wait staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. Their warm service and attention to detail really enhanced the overall experience. In fact, we loved it so much that we went back for a second time during our trip! Highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for genuine Roman food and a relaxed, hospitable atmosph

If you are looking for an authentic Roman hosteria this is the place! Frequented by locals so you know it’s good. The decor is simple and rustic but the food is out of this world. I would recommend.

2.5/10We arrived and was placed at a table up against the wall. I felt like I was in my grandmas kitchen. There was no room to move. I was looking at the service items while my husband was in a corner next to a brick chimney. There were maybe 5 tables total. I asked the waitress, is this all the tables? She said yes I asked is there a downstairs and she said it’s just the kitchen down there!. We expected to have an experience but were thrown off with the atmosphere. I did here music and a bunch noice down the stairs so I went exploring. Come to find out, there must be another door for the locals to enter and experience the live music. I asked why we were not set down here and was told they could move us but we had already received our food. (Which was horrible. The food was under cooked) I went back up stairs and ansked for our bill and left. Total time there was maybe 30 minutes. I felt that I had reserved a table for 2 through Fork and was treated like a guest not welcome to the party

10/10We LOVED this place- in our top two to three places we ate throughout Rome and Florence. Such great food and kind staff with such an inviting and fun atmosphere. The server even offered my sister stain remover for the sauce she got on her dress. We are coming back next time we visit Rome!

10/10My wife and I died here on a recommendation by the hotel. The appetizer, pasta and main meat courses all had well executed sauces that brought the whole dish together. This chef knows the nuances of Italian cuisine. Excellent!!

10/10Very nice. Not touristy. Excellent pasta, friendly service, fair prices. Came back after one week and was greeted like a regular. You can order a pasta dish as a mezza porzione if you want it as a starter. Excellent because secondi piatti are also well worth a taste.

7.5/10Good typical Roman food, contemporary Roman of course. Pasta, meat and raw puntarelle were good. The artichoke alla romana, however, although well cooked, wasn't a good vegetable i.e. it wasn't tasty. Parking isn't easy, but there's an underground garage nearby, not for free. All in all, a good place were to eat.

9/10We were staying at Le Meridien hotel and looked for something that was nearby that had great food and wasn't especially touristy. La Fraschetta Romanesca fit the bill. I had the Pork Knuckle (Pork Shank to us Americans) and my wife the Sliced Steak with Balsamic. Both were excellent. We were at the tail end of an 11-day trip to Italy and while not especially fancy this may have been one of our best meals at a very reasonable price.

8.5/10
Food was amazing and well priced, we had the salami/cheese starter, two pastas with very large portions and liter of house white for 53.50 total. They had no clue about fork even though made my reservation through it and gave me no discount. Paid via fork and they were confused until owner verified and all was fine, still no discount but not complaining still felt like good value, wish we were seated downstairs where aesthetic looked better but no biggie. Would go back and people next to us from Australia had been multiple times as they enjoyed it so much and we would consider as well.

8.5/10Good for the cost… wine was only $11 euros for a liter and the food was good… not great-my husband had clams and linguini which was bland but filling and I had Carbanero which was slightly too salty. They seated us in what seemed like a hallway but they did a good job of keeping an eye on us.
