Awesome pasta, salad and apps. This place was so accommodating with our gluten free diet and a huge group of 14. Great service and great food!

Service was great and food was great… what more do you need? When we went, there were lots of locals here during lunch hours. It is a bit off the beaten path but worth visiting. Try the rabbit ragu… it was my fiancé’s favorite dish in Italy… we would come back again if we had time!

Assume that the title means delicious, quality Italian food because that is all you will find here. We arrived right on opening time(7pm), before Italians like to eat. But the staff were friendly and let us pick wherever we wanted to sit. The pizza oven was already on so I was prepared for a delicious wood fired pizza. Which I got, with delicious, fresh ingredients at a price to beat the restaurants closer to Spagna. There is an extensive wine list and the host is very friendly so is happy enough to offer which wines will complement your choice. Everything we ordered was great– pasta, pizza and fried zucchini flowers. Do yourself a favour and forgo all the others to go here. Having been here for a 2 week holiday we have eaten at too many terrible ‘restaurants’. This was a gem. With good quality Italian food that we expected to find in Rome. As we left the tables were quickly filling up with Italian locals, so if you don’t believe my words, I’m positive a local Italian will thank you because it means they won’t have to fight you for a table.

This is one of the best dining experiences of our trip, and we had plenty of delicious food. The gnocchi, tiramisu, and panna cotta were all amazing. We saw a couple of people order the fried appetizers, including the fried artichoke and potato chips, which we wish we had more room to try. Two thumbs up!

Wonderful gem of a café off the beaten path. Wonderful food and service. My husband and I shared the artichoke and the fried zucchini flowers which were both well prepared. I had the carbonara which was yummy and pasta was cooked perfectly. He had the mixed grill which was steak, sausage and pork chop. Huge portion and the sausage was literally the best we’ve ever had. Our server was attentive and very friendly. I would highly recommend and we will be back for the pizza.

Best pizza in Rome. Crispy thin crust. Also had great gluten-free pasta, spaghetti with mozzarella and tomatoes. The carciofi alla Giudia was amazing! Wonderful lunch.

This is a great place to eat if you’re in the Piazza del Popolo/Spanish Steps/Trevi Fountain area. It’s a hidden gem off Via del Colso. We were walking from Colosseo to Piazza del Popolo and were very hungry. But all the places we saw on Via del Colso looked extremely touristy and we were not willing to settle for a mediocre, touristy food. So we poked around a few small streets and found Arancio d’Oro. We hit a jack pot! We arrived around 2pm on Sunday afternoon and the place was packed. In fact, we got the last table that was available. We ordered a focaccia, a salad with fresh mozzarella cheese, tomatoes, and tuna, and Tonnarelli cacio e pepe. Everything was delicious. I believe they make their own pasta, it tasted very fresh. Service was a little slow, but the waiters were friendly(which is not always the case in Rome). This is a very busy restaurant but they only had 3 guys working, so sit back, have some wine, and be patient. I would definitely go back to Arancio d’Oro next time I’m in Rome!
