Città Sovrana

Service was great. A little bit expensive than other Chinese restaurants, but food was decent. As a Chinese I found the food was just a bit on the salty side, but my partner (not Chinese) enjoyed it. Most importantly, this restaurant is clean!

As a Chinese when I say it’s authentic Chinese food, it is. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants an authentic bite.

When in Rome, eat as the Romans do. Chinese food is obviously the first thing that comed to mind. Just kidding, but it was one of the first things we stumbled upon shortly after we realized we were starving and it was time for lunch.
They close lunch service at 3, and we walked in around 2pm. We were seated immediately, amidst many Italian speaking patrons.
My father and I ordered a beer to share for 2.80 €, while my mother ordered a pot of green tea. My sister went cheap and stuck to the accidental bottle of sparkling water my father bought that morning.
The food was average, if not below average. Of all the chinese restaurants we had eaten at in Italy, this was definitely not the best and possibly the worst. We ordered the soft fried noodles, seasonal vegetables, tofu shrimp, pork spare ribs and hot pork with Zha Cai.
If the dishes didn’t meet par, they were definitely sub-​par. The dishes were a little overly salty, which made us crave either water or white rice. A bowl of steamed rice costs 2 €, which held us back from wanting to order it excessively.
For some reason, they also forgot about our order of hot pork with Zha Cai. We were almost full already at this point, so we almost asked them not to bring it out anymore. In the end, we still asked for it, as well as an extra bowl of rice.
Overall, it satisfied our hunger and our brief Chinese cravings, but I wish we had spent our time and money on something strictly «Roman,» and not on lackluster Chinese cuisine.

After eating Italian food for a week we wanted to try Chinese food in Italy. We happen to find this place while looking for dinner. We order the hot and sour soup and the crab with asparagus soup which turned out okay. Then we ordered the Kung po chicken it was very small and there was barely any. We also ordered the crispy spicy beef… it was a HUGE mistake. It was super fried and the sauce on it was tomato sauce?!? Not sure if it’s an Italian thing but tomato sauce?!? Really? I would not recommend this place for your Chinese food fix.

We tried some Chinese food:
— «Fan si» noodles were ok
— Glass noodles were just glass noodles, with barely any vegetables, meat or spices. We didn’t find it spicy at all, though we ordered it.
— «Tie ban rou» was made with too many preserved ingredients, giving it a sour taste.
— «Ma la dou fu» was made in a weird way, with a sweet sauce (I guess the one used for sweet and sour chicken) and added some (very little) peppers to it. again missing minced meat.
We wouldn’t come here again.
