We came here for a New Year's eve dinner and it was chaos. We waited for 45 minutes, and when no one had come my husband tracked down someone to take our drink's order. We then waited for another long period, and had to flag someone down for menus, and then again to have our order taken. The staff was polite and friendly, but totally flustered. Our main courses arrived while we still had our starter plates sitting in front of us. I imagine this was an unusual evening, maybe they were understaffed. The food was very good although my starter arrived cold, again, probably due to understaffing. I wouldn't have minded all this and we just watched the chaos with bemusement, however, to pay 167 euros for this (we only had 1 beer and 2 glasses of wine, no dessert) made us feeling unimpressed.

The food was delicious. The sea food carpaccio was one of the best dishes I’ve ever had and all the dishes had plenty of flavor. Friendly and quick service.

Everything was amazing from start to finish. Can’t rate this place highly enough. The octopus ragu was unreal.

Wonderful restaurant with a nice relaxed vibe but they didn't slouch on the food. Incredibly delicious, some of the best we had in our whole Italy trip. The anchovies, octopus, prawns and oysters were all excellent. The chef's welcome was also one of the highlights. Thank you!

This was a true find. Best meal of our stay in Rome. Food was amazing. Service was the same. Highly recommend. Ask for a table in the garden.

Too long wait for everything- servers are no where to be found! And the food was too salty for me.

Dear customer, I’m really sorry for your bad experience in our restaurant. The night of 25th of december was very hard because the 50% of the staff was at home sick with Fever. If you remember we were only two waiters and the restaurant was full and that’s the reason why the service was slow. Sorry again! Regards Stefano

Excellent restaurant, superb and fast service and food. Seafood oriented, meals are degustation sized, so don’t skip courses;-) a bit more expensive but well worth the money.
