5/10Some of the food was delicious, but too much was just not good enough. Despite the efforts of the waitress, the kitchen forgot some dishes and an hour after ordering, announced that one of the dishes was unavailable. Unfortunately the substitute (tuna) was not good enough.

6.5/10
The food was great. However, when we ordered our meals, we were told by the waitress that we had to order at least one item from appertizer and one item from main course per person in order to get them discount offered by the Fork. We could not find such a condition mentioned anywhere in the Fork app but only that the discount didn't apply on drinks or prefix menu. Since we didn't want 3 appetizers, we ordered 1 appetizer and 2 desserts to which the waitress reluctantly accepted. Thus the service was sub par. Perhaps, the falls at the Fork can clarify what the condition for discount is with the restaurant.

All the food was prepared beautifully and the maitre ‘d and waiter were most attentive. My only concern was that the main course could have been somewhat larger in quantity.

Lovely lunch for my mom’s last visit to Rome. Amazing food, nice service and good atmosphere. I am going to miss this restaurant when I leave Rome.

9.5/10The food quality and presentation was excellent. All our choices were positively memorable. Noteworthy was the best cannoli ever! This restaurant is under-stated: it look nothing special from the outside (mid-week) but deserves the highest ratings. The staff were lovely too!

5/10Very disappointing. Food was average. The waiting time was way too long. Only to receive a dish we had NOT ordered. The waiter was very polite and apologized repeatedly. There is no way I would give this place a second chance…

Cute restaurant, rather small indoor area, but also possible to sit outside. The menu offered a fine selection of seafood options. We enjoyed a three course menu and were very happy. Service was super friendly and considerate.

Food was excellent, creative, and delicious. Marco, the owner, was very friendly and funny. It was a rainy night and it was not crowded, but for some reason he said it was a busy day, to explain why we waited about 20 minutes or more between appetizer and main. For tourists looking to eat in Trastevere, this is no where near the center of the action. But for foodies it's worth seeking out.

10/10Great service, SO delicious food and a perfect glass of white wine???? We highly recommend this restaurant, and would be happy to visit again. We shared the salmon ‘antipasti’ as our starter and choose ‘catch of the day’ and ‘Sicilian Tuna Tagliata’ for main course.

10/10This was an excellent find. The food was absolutely wonderful. Sicilian fish and seafood with enhanced flavour thanks to some delicate flavours. The host Fabio is a real gentleman. He’s helpful with your choices and is friendly without being invasive. Perfect
