10/10The space is unique relative to other spots we visited in Rome. We sat on the 2nd floor which was a brilliant use of a small space. Staff is warm and friendly. The food is delicious. Definitely make a reservation. It's a busy restaurant, but not loud or crowded. They take their time with service and meal design. It's an experience!

10/10We loved it so much we went back twice to Virginiae while in Rome for two weeks. We had Christmas Eve dinner and had our last dinner in Rome there. Silvano was a cordial, lovely, funny and attentive waiter. All the staff was superb. Food was great (especially the white bean crostini) and the atmosphere quaint. The restaurant was tucked away from the tourists and no red checked table cloths. If we go back to Rome, Virginiae will be on the calendar.

10/10Silvano was incredible. So attentive, and yet invisible. Wonderful experience, delicious food, impeccable service. A Christmas Eve night to remember.
Virginiae • Owner
Thank you for sharing such a beautiful memory with us. We’re delighted to know that your Christmas Eve at Virginiae was truly special. Silvano will be deeply touched by your words — his attentive yet discreet service is something we’re very proud of. Knowing that the food, service, and atmosphere all came together to create an unforgettable evening means a great deal to us. We look forward to welcoming you back again, hopefully for many more moments worth remembering.

3/10We have been to this restaurant many times, but after this experience, we will not return. Initially I asked my waiter what would be the best lamb dish and he told me the roast lamb and potatoes which I ordered. It arrived cold and I asked to send it back and be reheated. The dish itself was bland and had absolutely no meat on it. A total waste of money. Then, we could not get the waiters to come near us again. No one asked us if we wanted anything else . They all were busy setting up for the incoming patrons. We were finally able to get someone to come to us and bring us our check. No apologies were offered. All in all, a very disappointing last night in Rome.

10/10Second time here for dinner in as many recent trips to Rome. Would not miss it. Whether outside on a pleasant or inside and cozy on a colder one, never disappointments, always excellent. This time we shared the velvety cacio e pepe Roman pasta and each had our own melt in the mouth veal osso buco with mushrooms. Shejan was again our server and again was friendly, helpful and efficient. Until next time!
Virginiae • Owner
Thank you so much for coming back to visit us — it truly means a lot! 😊 We’re delighted to hear that Virginiae has become a fixed stop during your trips to Rome. Whether outdoors on a warm evening or cozy inside, we love making you feel at home. We’re happy you enjoyed the cacio e pepe and the veal osso buco — two dishes we prepare with great care and pride. A special thank-you from Shejan as well! He’s thrilled to know he helped make your evening even better. We can’t wait to welcome you back next time you’re in Rome.

5.5/10The poor service and the lack of customary offerings marred the experience. When we sat down, the server asked if we wanted natural or sparkling. Although we specified sparkling and he echoed our request, he served natural and only recognized the error when we brought it to his attention. He then left our glasses full with natural water. Several patrons who arrived after us were served well before us. When our order finally arrived, the carbonara dish was almost cold. When we brought that to his attention, he merely changed the serving plate and not the temperature of the serving. Throughout he never refilled our water or wine glasses. When he presented the bill, he had the audacity to ask for a tip. Uncustomarily, the coperto did not include any bread nor did it include limoncello at meal’s end. The mark up on the wine exceeded 3X and the offerings are skewed—either lower end or upper end with essentially no graduated offerings in the middle. The chairs are uncomfortable.

We found this lovely restaurant 10 years ago and we very pleased to see it was still open. We loved it then and still loved it today. The food is delicious. The service is fantastic. Our server Hema was very friendly and provided great advice on our meals. I hope it is still open Years from now. I would highly recommend to give this restaurant a try.

TThe food at Victoriae was amazing! We had the oxtail, chicken, and fennel salad — all delicious, with rich flavors and beautiful presentation. Our waiter chose a great wine that paired perfectly with our meal. The staff were super friendly and the atmosphere felt warm and authentic — a great find just steps from Piazza Navona. I’d definitely come back for dinner!
Virginiae • Owner

We’ll share your compliments with the team — and with our longtime waiter Silvano, too.

6.5/10While our server was very pleasant, overall service was very slow. Plus my entree was warm, not hot. The server offered to replace it but it took so long to get that I decided to just eat the entree I received.
Virginiae • Owner
Hi Judy, thank you for sharing this and for dining at Ristorante Virginiae, our traditional Roman trattoria on Via di Parione in the historic center near Piazza Navona. I’m truly sorry for the slow service and that your entrée arrived warm—we should have moved faster, especially after offering a replacement. Your note helps us improve: we’re reviewing pacing between kitchen and dining room (fire times, pass checks, and hot-plate control) to make sure dishes reach the table hot and on time. Thank you as well for the kind words about the team—Silvano and everyone in the dining room appreciate it. If you’re open to it, please write us at info@ristorantevirginiae.it with date/time and the dish ordered so we can look into the shift and follow up. We’d love the chance to welcome you back for a smoother experience—perhaps our oven-hot Lasagna, Saltimbocca alla Romana, and a spoon of Tiramisù to finish. — Bernardo & Daniel – Owners
