The food was beautifully presented and tasty. The seafood and fish were fresh and the desserts to die for. We enjoyed everything with a rosé wine.

We ate outside on a lovely June evening with a light breeze. I love that the restaurant is on a quiet side street tucked away from the noise and bustle. The food was delicious, and service was prompt but not rushed. We had a buffalo mozzarella with pesto and tomato cream that was divine with warm bread. Entrees were gnocchi and the best saltimbocca ever. Both were exceptional. I’m only sorry we were too full to try dessert. The wine was excellent along with a complimentary glass of Prosecco to start. Just sorry we didn’t get back to eat there again. Highly recommend.

Well, the service and ambience were good, marking a three or four for these values disproportionately minimizes how bad the food was. The bruschetta antipasti was severely overly salted. The grilled octopus was good, but the mashed potatoes underneath lacked a good consistency. The pasta dishes were severely oversalted to a point where they were nearly inedible.

The hostess was very friendly. Since I was the only one to order a large appetizer, when the main meal came and she saw I had not finished with my appetizer she said let me keep your main plate warm and take your time to enjoy your appetizer!

We loved the place,the food and the personal, The only thing you could improve not to place the visitors to close, specially when they talk the same language.

Best carbonara in that particular area, the lunch offer is also decent, writing as someone who lives in Rome for many years

It's a quiet cosy restaurant off the main walk ways. It provided a lovely atmosphere. Each guest was given a complimentary glass of prosecco which I thought was a nice touch. The food was outstanding, I had the carbonara and its the best I've ever tasted. The prices are also reasonable. I would highly recommend.

Restaurant was not busy and service poor. Food did not come out hot and lobster pasta was sub par. Disappointed.

It isn't easy to find restaurants that aren't only tourist traps in Rome (especially in such a central area), so we were not sure how the dinner would go. However, everything from the antipasto to the dessert was DELICIOUS and worth the price! The carbonara was not made with cream and all of the pastas were cooked perfectly al dente. The plating of the food was both beautiful and practical (as the pasta's tortilla wrap bowls were also a yummy way to eat leftover sauce once finishing the pasta) and each fish was extremely flavorful. The food was not cheap per say, but not unnecessarily expensive either, and we left extremely satisfied. The staff were all VERY friendly without it feeling like they were being nice to sell food. We will definitely be returning!!

Wonderful dinner in the hidden gem in Rome again! On our last visit in Rome we arrived to this hidden gem to have romantic dinner and again the experience exceeded our expectations. Located in the heart of Rome, but quiet and intimate. Inside and outside tables. Perfect personal servise, Englishspeaking staff. So tasty food, good choice for vegetarian. Good wine and coctails list. So happy it still has its class. Very recommended. Enjoy!

First of all, the staff—everyone was incredibly kind and professional. We truly felt that they cared about us. My mom has Celiac disease, so we asked about gluten-free options, and it was no problem at all. Even the menu del giorno was available gluten-free, which was a wonderful surprise. Now, the food: absolutely amazing. Good portions, high quality, and every dish was delicious. Everything was served together, so we didn’t have to wait. The prices are very reasonable, and the ambiance—both indoors and outdoors—is just perfect. Antohes big plus is the location: right in the city center, but on a quieter street, so you can enjoy your meal without crowds of tourists peering over your plate. A perfect spot in Rome. Thank you so much—we were very happy to have our Easter lunch at your restaurant.

Food was okay but their twist on the originals are not so good for someone looking for authentic food. And they miscalculated the bill and I am not sure whether it was a mistake. They fixed the bill when I pointed that out though

Definitely the best dinner we had at rome, the food was amazing and tasty. the service was top notch and accommodative. I have zero complaints. we ordered the cold cuts and cheese platter and a side of mussles as a starter and it was incredible. my girlfriend ordered the tataki tuna and I ordered the pichna steak which was perfectly cooked. if you're looking for a romantic dinner at rome this should be a perfect choice.
