Of all the wonderful places I dined in Rome this was the worst… Basic pizza, stale bread with an overdose of olive oil instead of being provided with a bottle of olive oil. There are so many wonderful places to eat in Rome, avoid this place and find yourself one that won’t leave you wondering how bland a lunch can be

Stopped here for lunch after a busy morning of climbing the step of the St. Peters cupola and then doing the Sistine Chapel afterwards. The food was AMAZING. My wife had spaghetti with bolognese, and I had both the pesto and the beef steak salad. Excellent food: filling albeit light on the tummy, as we still had the Basilica and several other sites to walk to all afternoon in Rome. It was very affordable, too, for our drinks and meals. Gotta love Rome! We sat on the sidewalk and watched the world go by as we relaxed, ate, drank and talked about our day. Lovely memory and experience!

I assumed this would be a tourist trap being just down the street from the Vatican. But I was too hungry to care, having started the day pre-dawn. The service was quite friendly and I got a cappuccino and chocolate croissant(delicious!) for under 3 €!

Dando una vuelta alrededor del Vaticano para comer algo después de la caminata de Los Museos, encontramos en una plaza cercana este restaurante. La pasta a la carbonara es de la de verdad, con huevo como Dios manda(nunca mejor dicho estando donde estábamos). La birra es cara, medio por 5.50, pero eso es a lo que se acostumbra en Italia asi que supongo que es normal. Yo me pedí la pizza de cuatro quesos y estaba fantástica: masa fisa e ingredientes comedidos, pero suficiente. Para estar junto al Vaticano no nos salió caro. Entre pizza, pasta y birras, unos 32 €. Eso sí, se apoderaron de 3 € de vuelta sin preguntar que tuvimos, amablemente, que pedir. Recomendado si estas por la zona

We had great pizzas, huge salads, vegetable soup, gelato and drinks. Service is fast with all items out within 10 – 15 minutes on a busy night. Price is reasonable with good service. Cover charge is low.

La principale qualité de ce café est sans aucun doute son emplacement, situé à côté de l entrée du Vatican il vous permettra de vous restaurer rapidement avant une longue journée de visite. Par contre côté prix et qualité ce café pourrait faire mieux: 7 euros pour deux cafés servis à peine chauds ce n’est pas terrible.

Um… maybe we ordered the wrong thing but this place is a real tourist trap. It’s close to the Vatican so they cater to the foreign crowd. We came here because we did not have much time and decided to try the spaghetti carbonara and pizza margherita. After having all these wonderful Italian food throughout the cities we visited, we were simply not impressed. The quality of the food was not very good and pricey for what we got. It may be the worst place we dined in Italy.

Delicious gelato, creamy and flavorful. Great place to sit, relax and enjoy a treat. Service was just okay.

The food is delicious! After an awesome day of walking and sight-seeing through Rome, we were more than lucky to find this place. It was one of the best restaurants I went to during my whole stay in Italy! The restaurant looks like one of those touristy ‘self-service’ places(I personally don’t like those because they tend to be overpriced and un-adventurous), but once you’re seated and have a menu in your hands, your mind will be blown by all the different and tasty options! The service is super nice and fast. We had our cappuccinos within 5 minutes ordering them and our food within 15. The atmosphere is really open and friendly. If you’re in Rome, you should definitely stop by!
