Nous y sommes retournés deux fois durant notre séjour. Ce restaurant nous a beaucoup plu. On y mange très bien et les plats sont très copieux. Nous vous recommandons leurs pâtes aux fruits de mer qui sont vraiment délicieuses. Pour né rien gâcher, les serveurs sont tous très sympathiques, attentifs à la clientèle et toujours souriants. Le rapport qualité prix est excellent. Vous pouvez y aller les yeux fermés !

L’Orso 80 was one of our best dinners in Italy. We visited based on a recommendation from a family member, and she did not steer us wrong. The antipasti was very good, and my husband enjoyed his carbonara, but the real stand-out was the seafood pasta. Excellent fresh pasta and mixed seafood(clams, shrimp, squid) which I would highly recommend! We had great service as well, although I will note that we went on the earlier side and it wasn’t busy. Everyone was very friendly and happy to recommend dishes.

Good honest Roman food near the Piazza Navona. They are best known for their antipasto, which could include very good meatballs and grilled vegetables. And the antipasto is enough for a meal, but better if you can share. They also do very well with their pastas, from a terrific amatriciana and carbonara. Service was okay, more traditionally relaxed Roman, but very friendly. Can sit outside in warmer weather.

Amazing restaurant on a beautiful and quiet street in Rome. The best Cacio e Pepe I’ve ever had, and great for lunch or dinner.

After just returning home from a trip that included London, Paris and Rome, I have to say eating at L’Orso 80 in Rome was the best dining experience we had on our entire trip. Not only was the food delicious but the service was even better. We could not have been treated any nicer. Our waiter Simone(sp) was fantastic. He helped us choose items from the menu that he thought we might like to try, everything from the homemade fettuccine to the veal that you could cut with a fork to the red wine and desserts was wonderful. I would highly recommend this restaurant and the area in which it is located is really awesome.

Came in craving a plate of spaghetti carbonara, and they delivered. Not the cheapest place around, 10 euros for a plate of spaghetti, but it was worth it. My one critique is that they used pancetta and not guanciale, but it was still creamy and flavorful. Service was good, bread was surprisingly very good, and only 1 euro cover each person. Ate inside, roomy and good working air condition which was a huge plus in 95 degree weather. One a side note, some of the other tables had ordered various fish dishes which looked unbelievable. Would definitely go back to try those.

Amazing!!! If I could give more stars I would. Everything was perfect. Would most definitely recommend and eat here again when in Rome. You literally cannot go wrong with anything in the menu!

The food is amazing… maybe American Italian food has me confused but the meals they serve up here might make you question what you’ve been calling Italian all this time!

My friend gets two points for insisting I go to L’Orso during my Rome visit. From food to service, and everything in between, I was treated like I was the pope(well, maybe a Cardinal, at least). For starters, as in many other cities in Europe, there is someone usually standing outside the restaurant that tries to lure you in. At L’Orso, the owner stood outside, but he needn’t even spend the effort to get you to come in… people either stampeded to the door to get a table, or at least shook the owner’s hand in passing. That kind of respect only comes from running a quality, reputable place. The first dish I ordered was the antipasto all’Italiana. A mixed plate of prosciutto, salami, melon, and cheese. All aforementioned items were of highest freshness and general quality. The prosciutto had the natural oils and fat to give it a shiny lust, like gold. Perfect. It was, however, the rigatoni carbonara that motivates me to write an immediate and emphatic review, in order to sing its praises. The egg component of the sauce gave the noodles just enough silk-like texture. The bacon was cut into small, although thick, pieces that added the smokiness to give the dish that extra complexity. Lastly, the noodles were cooked al-dente, allowing you to have that extra«bite.» Do not deny the luxuries that Rome has to offer; instead, bathe in them. Dine at L’Orso 80.

This place serves excellent pasta and antipasti in a loose, Roman style — like«I’ll just put this bottle of wine on your table and you just pay for what you drink». As indicated, service is charming, personal and unintrusive. The feel is a family place, and you’re invited. Definitly a place to seek out for a chilled lunch at street level(which we did) or maybe finer dining inside in the evening?

Nice home style Roman cuisine with large portions of food at reasonable prices. It seems to be a hit with the locals as we saw large families with children there. Go for one of the seafood pastas.

Excellent and worth it. For 44 euro you order waiter’s choice antipasto, water and two glasses of wine and you eat like a local. They bring you a taste of everything and it is è tutto, squisito.

You can get full just trying the antipasti here, because it consists of a huge number of delicious plates. You got your grilled zucchini and eggplant, your ham and melon, bean salads, suppli(deep fried cheese-filled balls), a selection of salamis, marinated cauliflower, olives, the list goes on and on.

Very good homestyle Roman restaurant. Huge antipasto set up. This was probably the 2nd best amatriciana we had in Rome. This was our second visit as well since we went 4 years ago on our first trip and came back again. The prices are very fair and it is close enough to Piazza Navona that you can get a great meal without getting ripped off by the places in the piazza. I also had a veal dish that was less impressive but my wife and I both love their pastas.

Lecker Pasta essen in Rom. In der Nähe der wunderschönen Piazza Navona. Man sitzt sehr gediegen und elegant an schön gedeckten Holztischen. Ambiente typisch italienisch. Unbedingt zu empfehlen: antipasto misto della casa. Die Website ist sehr informativ und gibt einen guten Überlick über das Angebot mit sehr vielen Bildern.

Du grand art… Tutto bene… Malgré l’absence de carte à l’extérieur, précipitez-vous ! Le soir de préférence, sinon pas de pizzas ni de beignets… Que des romains, le service prévenant et de bon goût. Que du bon: pour le prix du couvert, des beignets de courgettes et du pain chaud base pizza, puis goûtez les antipasti della casa(déjà avec ça, on a déjà plus faim), la bruschetta, les crocchette di riso, les tagliolini alla ciociara, les bucatini all’ammatriciana, les pizzas, les viandes, la bouteille de vin blanc à 6 €(le litre !)… C’est du 3 étoiles. Spécialité de poisson, fermé le lundi. Situé à deux pas du Tibre, en face du palais de justice. 55 € à deux, c’est presque donné, nous y sommes allés que deux fois, parce qu’après, on repartait à Lyon…
