10/10Food just spectacular. The service was right on point, attentive and knowledgeable. Silvano made our celebration evening memorable with his wonderful personality. Don’t skip this place, the food will NOT disappoint.
Virginiae • Owner
Thank you for such an incredible review. We’re truly delighted that you found the food spectacular — that’s exactly what we strive for with every dish that leaves the kitchen. It’s also wonderful to hear that the service was attentive and knowledgeable. Silvano will be especially happy to know he helped make your celebration evening memorable. Creating special moments is what hospitality is all about. We hope to welcome you back to Virginiae very soon for another unforgettable evening in Rome. 🍝🍷✨

8/10Food good - veal could have been more tender. Good wine list. Friendly staff, but lacked attention, no checking that everything was OK during meal. Not sure what the cover charge covers - no breadsticks etc. Three courses with water and wine for two came to €134; seemed reasonable but perhaps a bit more than expected.

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!
Virginiae • Owner
Thank you so much for sharing your experience. We’re delighted that you appreciated the uniqueness of our space and the second-floor seating — making the most of the historic layout is something we care deeply about. It’s wonderful to know you felt the warmth of our team and enjoyed both the food and the relaxed rhythm of the service. Creating a calm, welcoming atmosphere even when the restaurant is busy is exactly the experience we aim to offer. We’re truly glad it came through and that the evening felt like more than just a meal. We look forward to welcoming you back to Virginiae — reservation already in mind 😉

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.
Virginiae • Owner
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for such a wonderful review. Knowing that you chose Virginiae not just once, but twice — for such special moments as Christmas Eve dinner and your last evening in Rome — truly means a lot to us. We’re delighted that Silvano and the whole team helped make your experience memorable with warmth, care and a bit of good humor. Your appreciation for the food, especially the white bean crostini, and for the intimate, authentic atmosphere away from the tourist crowds, is exactly the spirit we strive to create every day. It was a pleasure having you with us, and if Rome brings you back again, we’ll be ready to welcome you — calendar already marked 🍷✨

10/10Silvano was incredible. So attentive, and yet invisible. Wonderful experience, delicious food, impeccable service. A Christmas Eve night to remember.

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.

10/10Amazing meal…. Food was great and the vibes were perfect for an evening with your loved one and the area is just beautiful
Virginiae • Owner
Hi Ruben, thank you so much for the 10/10 and for the kind words! We’re glad the vibes were perfect for an evening with your loved one at Ristorante Virginiae, a traditional Roman trattoria tucked away on Via di Parione in the historic center of Rome, just by Piazza Navona and the Chiostro del Bramante. Next time, we’d love to cook you more Roman classics — Carbonara or Tonnarelli Cacio e Pepe, then Saltimbocca — and finish with our house Tiramisù. Can’t wait to welcome you back! — Bernardo & Daniel – Owners

Virginiae • Owner
Hi Aykut, thanks a lot for dining at Ristorante Virginiae! Great to hear that price, service and food quality worked well for you. We’re a traditional Roman trattoria on Via di Parione, in the historic center of Rome near Piazza Navona and the Chiostro del Bramante, where we focus on cucina tradizionale and fresh pasta. Next time, we’d love to cook you Amatriciana or Ravioli ricotta e spinaci, then Saltimbocca and our house Tiramisù. See you again in the heart of Rome! — Bernardo & Daniel – Owners
