9.5/10The service and food were both excellent - highlights from the menu included the artichoke soup and the apple tart dessert. If the weather is fine, sitting on the terrace with views across Rome might be one of the very nicest possible ways to spend an evening.

10/10Exceptional the dishes, very friendly service, even on a rainy evening in february without being able to enjoy the terrace and the views worth the high price.

9/10I didn't realized that this space in the Raphael Hotel had turned into a vegetarian restaurant, but was pleased when I learned this. Everything was very to excellent about this restaurant. The food most of all was creative and tasty. The service superb, and the atmosphere cozy and sophisticated. I would easily return again.

9/10Amazing restaurant with fabulous service and a glorious and unique all vegetarian menu. And have not even yet come to the view from the terrace overlooking the nearby domes and also the pantheon. Excellent place

10/10Friendly service, great food and an amazing view of all Rome. The chef is really creative and competent in making vegetarian taste great. These chefs did it right in the land of carnivores. All over Italy I was being offered risotto as the vegetarian option. This menu was a welcome surprise to find in Rome. Highly recommended

8/10The ambience and service were amazing. Sadly, our expectations of the food fell short. The food wasn’t bad, it just didn’t blow our minds when we were expecting it to considering the Michelin rating. The truffle risotto was way too rich/heavy and too large of a portion. Would have been much better suited as a smaller appetizer. The Roman stuffed focaccia was tasty but became soggy very quickly due to how it was prepared. The chickpea fritter main felt like it was missing something to round out the flavors. Overall, I would probably come back here for a drink and snack on the rooftop, but not for a full meal.

4/10We chose the full degustation menu for 160 euro without wine. It was completely unninspired food, lacking innovation and largely flavoured through different renditions of parmesan cheese. The food did not celebrate the beauty of vegetables or show any creative edge. The service was old fashioned and out of touch. My daughter took me to this dinner as a gift but the waiter did not address her at all during the meal, explaining dishes only to me, checking in only with me and finally presenting me with the bill! How this made the Michelen guide is anyone's guess, perhaps the rooftop view? A very expensive disappointment, cannot recommend this to vegetarians, it will make you sad.
