Cute little eatery. The host who served us speaks excellent english,, the food was so good and it came with like these little donut scone things--perfectly fried. It was super convenient right next to our hotel but I bet it would be worth the drive if your hotel is not nearby!

This place was right near our Airbnb. But it's not open all the time. It opened for lunch at 12:30pm and closed. But would re-open at 7:30pm. Food was real good. We enjoyed our meals. I thought the seafood risotto was the best I've had in a while. Would go back if we wanted to have a later dinner. Good prices. Staff spoke decent english.

Stayed at Grand Tiberio Hotel and wanted dinner close by at an authentic place. Service was awesome, food delicious and prices reasonable.

Some of the best food I have had while in Rome! We all enjoyed our dinners and tried a variety off of the menu. The restaurant was recommended by a pharmacist down the street, and we would highly recommend it.

This is such a perfect bistro. The owner was wonderful. No reservations, no problem. The food is excellent especially after a long day in Roma. Totally worth a stop.

Brought family here. I tried the Veal with potatoes and the rest of my family tried the Sea bass. However, wait time was a tad long. Veal was very good with lemon juice. Family said the seabass is fresh, just needs a tad more flavor.
