We went twice to this restaurant. Starters and appetizers were pretty good. Main meal was the first evening "ok" and the pasta the second evening was super salty. Pretty disappointing. I would come back for the starters but not for the main meals anymore. Staff simply said "sorry" about the super salty pata and left quickly. A plus was the offered cookies and limoncello at the end.

The restaurant is somewhat hidden at the lower ground floor but the ambience is nice and the service quick and careful. The offer of food is good and quite refined. I was directly offered the special discount from the Fork without asking or remind anyone.

the pasta especially the rigatoni was almost uncooked and it was not homemade pasta that most places in Rome serve. also we were three people and they served us tap water for 2,5 euro each refill. first time in my life i was asked to pay for tap water . they keep bringing you tap water without asking for more of course and without informing us that they charge 2,5 euros for it. the beef tartar was chopped very thick it would taste much better if they serve this plate chopped very well. the service was very helpful and nice and the wine great. the cheese and meat platter is nice. the beef with honey mustard was very tough even though it was cooked medium rare. we payed 144 euros with 50% discount with 2 bottles of wine that cost 53 euros both.

Terrible customer service. Expected to download 3rd party software onto your phone to view a menu. No normal menus or ipad/tablet to order from. Pathetic.

THE FOOD WAS GOOD, but i will not be surprise that this restaurant rise their price for the drinks (for me was a glass of wine) to compensate the discount by using the folk (discount of 40% on the menu). I explain myself: a glass a wine is currently From 6 to 8 euros in this range of restaurant in Italy. There is was 12 euros for on glass and the wine was sorry for the term: terrible.

Starting on the positive side: portions are generous (for those who like this) and prices are ok (meaning, ok in a touristic neighborhood). Service is fast and friendly. On the downside (unfortunately) are food/dishes; most of what we had (tartare tonno, linguine gamberi) were bland (and we do not expect spices or sauces that "kill" the flavor of the food itself, definitely not. However, the true skill of the cook is when good foods are accompanied by elements/ingredients that enhance the joy of eating it). The spigola cacciatora was somewhat better and portion indeed generous. The Falanghina wine (by glass) again very bland (as if the opened bottle had been kept in the fridge for a couple of days - which is not a good idea for any wine, let alone a white one). With the ambiance pretty noisy, unfortunately not a place we would consider returning.

Very good food in a wine cellar setting giving it an excellent ambience. Service could have been a little better, but we only spoke english making it somewhat difficult to communicate details. Only real complaint as the 60 inch television playing the soccer match 3 feet from our table. Not what we're used to when you advertise fine dining.

Tuna tartar was excellent. There were lots of local families, which is always a good sign. We were offered limoncello, grappa and amaretto as a finishing touch.

Really welcoming authentic Italian restaurant next to the Trevi fountain. The food was good but the ambiance was even better, provided us with lollipops, limoncello, some other two strong drinks on the house.

I’ve been here many times and it’s always great. The ambience leaves something to desire, but the food is excellent, and with the discount offered here it’s a great deal. Great place to go in the winter or in the summer if you need to cool down, since it’s in the basement!
