Was the most enjoyable meal of our trip and a must visit in Rome, service was immaculate and the food was some of the nicest I had ever tasted, the staff were informative helped us choose a wine best suited to our food and let us choose where we wanted to sit inside or out and we chose outside but were not cold thanks to the heat lamps so we could enjoy the ambiance of trasterve with our meal, ten out of ten best place I have visited in Rome

4/10The server brought the 2nd course before the appetizers, then tried to bring the pasta with the appetizers. When we said something about it the server broke into a loud rebuttal about how we disrespected him. The “homemade” ravioli was dried out. When they brought the fish for the 2nd time, the side dish of the spinach was cold.We have dined in this restaurant many times over the years and after last night’s experience we will not return

10/10The service was warm and cordial. The quality of the bread, the ingredients and the cooking were excellent. The wine list was well organized and the offering was wide and interesting. The place was clean. The location was lively. We had a wonderful lunch at La Scala in Trastevere.

I had a reservation, and upon arrival waited in a queue of people waiting to be seated. There was an obvious queue forming, however no attendant was coming to check so I waited patiently in this queue in order of the time that we arrived, again, even though I had a reservation. A group of American tourists proceeded to storm right past the entire line of people waiting all the way to the front and found an attendant, and they were seated immediately!! which was disappointing because there was a queue of people waiting— even some that HAD A RESERVATION— like myself. I felt that the staff did not care about order or reservations and it was unfortunate.

5.5/10Negronis were great, but the food arrived so soon after that we couldn't finish them. Then we ordered wine for the food but it took quite a while. Servers had good disposition but were disorganized and not on track with each other for timings. The parmigiana was served cold in the middle, was sent back to the kitchen and then took long to come back. The carbonara was ok, the amatriciana was excellent. When the main courses arrived all of our first course plates still hadn't been cleared so the server expected us to hold everything in the air while she placed the new dishes down. Scarola was very oily and the gnocchi with tuna was very underwhelming. The sauce was too heavy for the dish, the tuna was overcooked and dry. I had high hopes because of the good reviews but this was truly a disappointment. The servers was and the Negronis were the best thing going for this place.

Wonderful meal and friendly staff. Unfortunately it was a rainy night so we ate inside. Patio is covered but the rain was a little too heavy to risk it. I had lasagna….delicious and creamy and my husband had the ravioli with ham and mushrooms….equally as good! Would highly recommend !

10/10We visited the restaurant twice during our stay in Rome and each time appreciated the friendly and attentive service and the delicious food as well as the warm atmosphere. Lots of vegetarian choices on the menu and good wines by the glass. On our second visit we were recognized and welcomed back with addictive home made potato chips and glasses of prosecco.

10/10We dined at La Scala twice while in Rome for just five days, which tells you something about how much we liked the place. Terrific, traditional Roman dishes, great service, fun wine list and a wonderful setting combined to make it a delightful experience. Our waiter Lorenzo was simpy terrific. We’ll be back.

10/10LaScala was a perfect location for our anniversary celebration. The staff was outstanding and made our celebration special by providing a champagne toast for our party as well as a special dessert. We loved the food and the piazza was full of life that evening. Would highly recommend LaScala to anyone!

Great restaurant with friendly staff. Food was served quickly and tasted great. Felt no pressure to be rushed. Lots of people without reservations were turned away...so book in advance to avoid disappointment

We really enjoyed dinning here. We went early at 6pm and there was only a few couples by 8 pm when we left the place was packed. A lot of locals as well so that tells you a lot. We had Barada with black truffle and Carbonero the ravioli and steak, and ended with tiramisu. We had a fabulous bottle of Sauvignon mock. Would recommend this place!

3/10Not a good experience. First of all, they didn't have our reservation, so there was confusion. They kept saying "it's no problem, you can have a table," but wouldn't seat us for awhile. Instead, they kept just looking at my phone reservation and trying to tell me it was the wrong day. Once seated, there were very loud English-speaking families near us. It gave more of an Applebee's vibe. We spent most of our time batting away fruit flies. I don't know much about truffle, but the quality they served was definitely the worst we've ever had. It was very dark, heavy and very earthy. They wouldn't let us order secondi until we finished primi (also a first), which was good because we just ended up going somewhere else for secondi. They had great reviews online, but this was our experience in March 2023.

10/10Best dinner after 4 nights in Rome. Extremely well priced for how good the meals are, the truffle steak was amazing. My kids had spaghetti and meatballs and both said it is the best they have ever had.
