After spending a lot of money on crappy food, we are so happy to find and continue to eat at this place! The food is wonderful, with very reasonable prices and great service. In a party of 8 each night, we have no complaints and are so grateful to have found authentic Italian food at the right price! EATHERE.

Not sure we’re all posting about the same restaurant, but I’m reviewing the caffe on Via Flaminia, just outside the arch on the north side of the Piazza de Popolo. We tried this place because the staff at the front desk of our hotel recommended it, and said they serve ‘real Italian food.’ She said that they go here on their breaks.(We did see them getting take out here.) Ended up having dinner here twice during our three nights in Rome. The ONLY reason I give it 4 stars rather than 5 is that the sidewalk tables are right in front of the light rail stop, so the train arrives and leaves about every five minutes. It’s not really that bothersome, though, once the food arrives. Our waiter, Marian, is from Romania and working here as a summer job. Great service, funny, not afraid to offer an opinion or a recommendation. Over the two dinners, we enjoyed several appetizers(bruschetta, fried zucchini flowers), pizzas(Napoli, prosciutto, margharita), pasta(linguine alla vongole), and desserts(tiramisu, panna cotta, limoncello cake, chocolate cake). Everything was consistently of high quality and servings were generous. We shared a bottle of wine with each dinner — each bottle was 15 euros or less and outstanding. Highly recommended — good value, location, service.

I had a delicious glass of wine, bruschetta porcini and gnocchi al pesto. The prices were great and the location was perfect, right near the Piazza Flaminio. The waiter was very friendly, and this was by far the best meal I had in Rome.

Tourist trap — they lead all tourists upstairs, service was awful and food was nasty. How can they go wrong with pizza with prosciutto? Go elsewhere where food will taste far more better with similar prices.
