    Service was excellent! Shrimp tartare was delicious and super fresh. Pasta with octopus was the most delicious pasta I’ve had in my life along with the pistachio sea bass. High recommend!

    The restaurant is small, only 6 or 7 tables, so that surprised us, but the experience was ultimately excellent. The lobster pasta was one of the most delicious pastas I've ever eaten. I appreciate the pasta noodles were not overly all dente, done perfectly.

    What more can you say about a restaurant you go to 2 nights in a row when visiting Rome? The wine suggestions were excellent complimenting the perfect and attentive service and the food was amazing! Just go!

    Extraordinary tasting experience! We came with family and friend. We had salmon carpaccio, tuna tartare, fried chopped assorted fish, pan seared tuna, king crab pasta, shrimp pasta and lobster pasta, all tasted amazing and delicious, This is a grand new dining experience, all taste new to palate but all absolutely great. Highly recommended if u tired of steak and red wines and look for refreshing seafood like us! Don’t make me wrong, we love Italian steak but it’s time to seafood after days of red meat.

    This little restaurant was just around the corner from our hotel. I really enjoyed the octopus starter but was let down by the lobster pasta main. There was little more than lobster flakes in the pasta. For the price I would have expected more.

    The dishes are unique, different from other "classical" Italian restaurants but a bit expensive without the Fork discount ; portions are a bit small. Service was very good.

    Only one server spread thin. Starters were ok, octopus is not bad. We were lied to about the fried fish mixture as it didn't come with prawns but this was denied by the server afterwards. Mains were really not good, seabass is dry and we were told it comes with mixed veg but it came with 3 pieces of herb. When we told them about it, the server went to the chef and we then see the server leave the restaurant and come back with one bunch of lettuce and few minutes later it's chopped up, thrown in a plate and drizzled with oil. And as an "apology" we get a bigger plate of lettuce, very funny. The sea urchin spaghetti was very bland.

    Little restaurant with a charming atmosphere and dishes of good quality. The remarkable and interesting point is that all dishes are based on fish and sea food. Prices aligned on a medium high range.

    Terrible experience based largely on 30% discount. Small, unfinished dishes. Replaced dishes they didn't have without asking us, telling us we wouldn't be charged for them, then were. Told they had no coffee when we asked, charged 12 euros each for desserts to try and make up the bill. Awful meal.

    The food was so bland and lacks flavour. We were disappointed by both sea urchin and prawn pasta (which on travellers photos use red prawns but we had normal prawns in ours). Needed lots of salt to season it but generally no seafood flavour to it at all.

    All the dishes we chose were excellent and the fish very fresh, so the food was a 10! If the cleanliness of the table, glasses and rest room were improved this would be one of the best small fish restaurants in the center of Rome.

    We came to this place on an earlier visit to Rome and rated it great food and meh service. They now have a booming extrovert serving the food and while he may not be everyone cup of tea he was efficient and certainly livened the place up. Soon you feel your a dining at a cousin's place. The food too has gotten even better. The only dreary thing about the night was the tiny, overly brightly lit room. But with food like this, who cares! .I wish they'd move to England.

    I was nearly put off by the reports of bad service, delighted I wasn't. Food was superb and service was great. We're not talking TGI Fridays service, Thank God, but it was helpful, efficient, and quick. If our stay was longer we'd have been regular visitors.

    6.5/10

    Food is (very) good, and the restaurant would deserve a better rating - if it weren't for the poor service and some other "issues". Menu is (very) short, but well compensated with innovative dishes which are very well prepared, with ingredients of (very) good quality. Too bad, there are a number of issues and shortcomings which need to be addressed before the food quality can lead to a better rating. The waiter wasn't ill-intentioned, but simply not professional (enough) for that price level. Wine list (way too) short. Some plates perhaps "chic" but utterly inappropriate (too deep) for eating with knife and fork (at best acceptable for spooning a soup). Same with the slate slabs: perhaps "trendy" but cold, rendering food cold, too, very quickly. If you want to use slate slabes they need to be "hot" when serving the food. Background music was a little bit too loud, and not all titles appropriate for this type of restaurant. Summarising suggestion: pay more attention to the issues mentioned above.

    Food was excellent, the service not so much. Long wait to order wine, long wait to order food and then a long wait after the main before Seeing dessert menu ( which we gave up on after waiting 25 Minutes. Orecchiette with octopus was great, squid main course was great wine was a good value

    I had read enough reviews to expect good food and poor service. These were pleasantly exceeded on both counts. The food was superb and service erratic but OK. The menu was more modern than I expected. The seafood was incredibly fresh. I'll go back on my next visit, for sure.

    food was fantastic but service was not good. The waiter wanted serve us white wine in red wine glasses and we were the only guests who did not get a wine cooler for the white wine like all other (Italian) guests.

    Very small but cozy place. Great fresh food. Nice place but tables very close to each other so it is not very intimate. Must try for the food, definitely.

    Quaint little restaurant, situated just off Nazionale Avenue. Only seats about 20 pets so book. We booked via The Fork, never used it before but we got 30% off the total bill, no questions asked. Wine approx €20 upwards. Starters €10 upwards. All a la carte served, small amounts but beautiful. Total bill 2 courses each, wine and water €65, after discount €45. Reasonable with the quality of the food. It's a nice surrounding with mainly Italian couples eating. Very tight seating plan inside so don't splash your neighbours whilst eating. Worth a visit. Would go again with a 30% discount.
