    From the moment we walked in it was wonderful. Attentive. Funny. Kind. Honestly, best meal I had while in Paris. The linguini romantic and arugula salad. Simple, perfection. I love unpretentious food and this hit the spot. Will return each time we are in Paris!

    Excellent food. Great service. Pasta dishes are quite big, we didn't finish our plates since we ordered an entrance (the burrate is delicious)

    The food here was good, and it was open on Sunday PM - a rarity in Paris.It was reasonably-priced, and while the wine selection was small, we enjoyed the bottle we ordered. However, we did have a problem when we arrived for our 7:30 PM reservation. The door was locked and we had to bang on it to get attention from the only employee there. He was not allowed to give us a glass of wine, but he called someone who waited on us after she arrived about 15 min. later. Possibly there was a miscommunication through TheFork, though we haven't had any problems using it previously.

    Intimate and classy. Friendly staff who served well and discreetly. But the bonus for us was the authentic italian cuisine and conversation with the gracious staff member from Italy. He made our day!

    Staff pleasant enough but English was poor. The restaurant was very limited for alcoholic drinks, no beer. We thought we were ordering alcoholic spritz and it came non alcoholic and tasted like mouthwash at 9 euros per small bottle. Food was cooked fresh and served fast but was very average and portions on the smaller side. Don't think we will be returning here.

    Great hidden secret restaurant so close to the centre of Paris; great food, reasonably priced wines but let down a little by the speed of service which was slow - made up by how friendly the owner/waiter staff interacted with us as customers - but we had a great meal all the same and great value for money, recommended!

    This restaurant is a hidden gem! It is a wonderful family owned restaurant and the owner was just wonderful. We noticed he speaks multiple languages and was accommodating to every table. The food is literally to die for. Best pasta we have had and the tiramisu is a must have. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and we will be stopping by again shortly. Wonderful!

    Romantica is our go to Italian when we’re in Paris and need a break from French food. The food and ingredients are authentic and prepared well. The Pasta Romantica is a must on your first visit. Good Italian focused wine list as well.

    I have been several times to the romantica caffe and it’s great every time. The waiter went out of his way to be nice with us this time, and as usual the dishes are perfect, based on excellent ingredients

    Excellent welcome. The house specialty : the linguini braised in the parmesan cheese and cognac are excellent. Good selection of wines and whiskys. One of the rare good restaurants in the neighborhood.

    The restaurant is sober and simply decorated. I arrived in an empty restaurant, on time for my 7pm reservation. When I requested a different table from the one proposed in the window, I was told that I had to move to the other side of the room, as if it was a big inconvenience. That was an indication of the evening's service style. There is one man, an Italian waiter who was a bit disdainful and a bit inefficient although there were never more than 8 tables/24 people in etc dining room at once. I hate being in a restaurant where I repeatedly have to wave my arms to get service. Especially at these prices. Fortunately, I ad the 30% The Fork discount or I would really have been upset since the food was also mediocre. The bresaola with rocket and parmesan was OK but very little for the price, maybe 50 gr. The linguini vongole had no discernible garlic or any other flavor. The pasta was cooked well, al dente. My friend had the house specialty, Leggera Romanitca, equally disappointing, heavy and flavorless.

    A very reliable refined italian restaurant I have been to several times. The service is outstanding, we always have the same waitress who's friendly, warm and efficient. The flavors are authentic. The value for money is very good if you get the 30% off with thefork, as we did. We will continue coming!

    Everything was fine. The only surprise was that when I asked for a variation on a dish (spaghetti instead of linguine) alle vongole, they told me it wasn't possible...... then I saw my neighbours eating spaghetti alla Bolognese. When questioned, the waitress insisted that it was also linguine. However, I tend to believe my eyes ;)

    Try the starter of bufflone, pesto and warm tomato sauce - their pesto is the best I've ever had. The bass I had for a main course was absolutely perfect, as were also my girlfriend's linguine "nouvelle norma". The service was outstanding, too.

    excellent quality of ingredients and tasty dishes.... a "go to" address for a comforting pasta dinner that will cost barely more than if you fixed it yourself (and it wont be as good)

    Just avoid as (so called) Service quality is mediocre (understatement…) A dinner with friends and family is a joyful moment, don’t you agree? I even would say that service satisfaction in a restaurant weights equally to the food served. Last night we meet the ugly face of a waitress that did all to spoil our dinner, we even left without having our so desired desert… NEVER again in that restaurant! Despite the fact that the place is located in my street and food used to be fine.
