    Menu is great that it is gluten free but way too limited

    Probably one of the best restaurants we've experienced in Rome. Gluten free and everything made from the same "base ingredient" (rice). Great value for money with a relaxed atmosphere

    Service and location were fine, both dishes tasted a bit bland/ out of a can.

    Staff kind and welcoming. My husband is coeliac and this restaurant is exclusively gluten free so it was great for him to be able to eat anything from the menu. Food was delicious and good wine too. They gave my husband extra gluten free focaccia to take away because they heard him saying it was the first time he had eaten bread in Rome. Highly recommend.

    If you like risotto or are curious to try it, this is definitely the place. Also perfect for anyone on a gluten-free diet.

    I mentioned to my family that I wanted to have Risotto in Italy; it just so happened we walked by this restaurant an hour later. We did need reservations, how've everything we ate was delicious. Service was exceptional, they did not rush us, it's off a quiet street. Would definitely go back; good news, there's one in Florence, Milan and NYC.

    The starters and risotto dishes were beautiful! Absolutely stunning across the board. The staff were encouraging and respectful when my husband tried to speak italian to them, and everything about this place was cosy and wonderful. Couldn't recommend enough.

    In a sentence I can sum up everything. Not at all impressed. Not even close to their location in NYC. Just 2 people serving the restaurant. The chef ( or the wanna be so) playing on his phone on the beck of restaurant. When we decided to seat on the back he seamed annoyed but kept playing on his phone. The service scarce. I did say in a sentence but it took a few more.

    1st experience of a 100% gluten free restaurant. Excellent variety of risottos to choose, starters and desserts. Staff very tentative, tasty food.

    It’s not easy to find authentic, tasty Italian cuisine in central Rome that is also strictly gluten free. This place was a great find. Not expensive, great service, great food.

    We’ve been to their New York location, which we found meh (the rice was undercooked), but here in Rome, the rice was cooked perfectly. I had the veal and pork while my wife had the mushroom risotti. The flavors were good, but not out of this world. The mini soft dark chocolate rice cake with peach sauce was good as well. Overall, a solid “4” rating.

    We made a reservation, though it wasn't needed as there was plenty of free tables to choose from. The staff greeted us in a very accommodating manner and were attentive to our needs throughout our entire visit. The food was delicious: we had the Tortino con farina di Riso con Porri, Mele e Guanciale su fondutta di Pecorino as an antipasto, which was delicious, for Risotti we had the one with Asparagi (Which was good, but could have used and actual asparagus on the plate) and the Risotto con crema di Mirtilli e fonduta di Gorgonzola, which was absolutely scrumptuous. For drinks we tried their own birra artigianale, very tasty, and for desert we had the Cheesecake made with Rice flour with Pistachio cream and white Chocolate, which was positively sinful. We had a full view of the kitchen, so it was fun watching our plates get made, and the ambience was relaxed and warm. Clean bathroom is a definite plus! Would definitely return and recommend!

    The risotto tasted wonderful and was really nice to have on a cold day. The bread and rice cakes were really nice too.

    It’s impossible to find gluten free in America. But this restaurant really accomplished it with deliciousness, creativity and thoughtfulness.
