    This was a return visit for me and the first visit for my boyfriend and Life did not disappoint. Not only was the food, service and atmosphere fantastic, but they went above and beyond to help us when we realized we left our phone (with credit cards) in the taxi that dropped us off. My boyfriend was a little nervous because he was going to propose at dinner and accidentally left the phone behind. We reached the driver and got the phone back thanks to the staff and a very nice Russian diner. We were able to relax and enjoy a wonderful and memorable evening!

    5-Star Review for Life Restaurant, Rome Absolutely phenomenal dining experience at Life Restaurant! From the moment we walked in, the service was exceptional—attentive, warm, and genuinely welcoming. The hospitality made us feel right at home in the heart of Rome. The prawn cocktail appetiser was divine—fresh, vibrant, and perfectly balanced. But the real star of the evening was the white truffle carbonara… hands down the most incredible dish I’ve ever had. Rich, creamy, and beautifully aromatic—it completely stole the show. Highly recommend for anyone looking for an unforgettable meal with top-tier service. Will definitely be returning!

    We had such a special Christmas dinner at this gem of a restaurant. The food was fresh, innovative and delicious. Highlights were the trio of raw fish appetizer and seared tuna encrusted with pistachios. They adapted the menu well for our GF celiac diners.

    Not happy. We booked reservation thru the Fork. When we arrived on time at 715, they had our reservation, but we were told they had no seating in the dining room so we would be seated outside across the street. The plastic had an opening right next to our table and one whole side was uncovered. Wind blowing and 45 degrees. Folks walking thru on the public sidewalk trying to sell us flowers and other goods, during what was supposed to be a “high end” dinner. At the end, the waiter asked us if we wanted to add a tip. Very unhappy. Most of our food was cold.

    The most expensive restaurant we dined at in Rome. Food was just okay- we felt we were pressured to add fresh black truffles on everything (for an up charge). At times felt very rushed, while other times server was non-existent. Our bread was delivered to the wrong table, but we weren’t charged. They did give limoncello at end. The only restaurant that had tipping associated with paying the bill. Overall, felt more like an American restaurant in terms of mid quality, high cost, requested tipping.

    After we were seated, it took almost 15 minutes before we were given a menu. And they forgot about the bread even though we asked 2 times. The prawn cocktail was presented well but disappointing as only 4 prawns were given and way too much salad. The lobster fettucine was good though

    The food and wine were very good. We were a bit disappointed that they had no wild mushrooms and we were looking forward to that. We also ordered grilled baby squid And they were out of that also. We ordered other dishes and they were delicious!

    I recently enjoyed the beef fillet with truffles at Life - Ristorante del Tartufo in Rome, and it was extraordinary. The fillet was perfectly cooked and melt-in-your-mouth tender, with the truffles adding a rich, luxurious flavor. The cozy ambiance and attentive service made the dining experience even more memorable. Highly recommend this place for a special meal in Rome!
