Piccolo Buco Roma - set mere steps from Rome's famed Trevi Fountain - is where Cooper's Hawk Founder, Tim McEnery, first discovered Chef Luca Issa and his wonderful pizza. The ingredients were deceptively simple: creamy, indulgent mozzarella mingled with a bright and bold tomato sauce. But it was the extraordinary, tall crust - crisp on the outside yet cloud-like at the center - that won his heart. He couldn't wait to introduce America to a pizza this special!

The brown butter roasted scallops (chef recommendation) were delicious, and the soy ginger salmon is always a favorite! Great service and friendly faces!

This was our first time at Beatrix but certainly won't be our last. Food and service were both top notch. We were there for brunch. Dinner is not served until after 3pm. It is a vibrant atmospher so if you looking for intimate and quiet this is probably not the spot but if you want great food and service in a fun spot, this is the place. We will be back to try the dinner menu soon.

It’s always awesome. Even if you wait for your table it’s awesome. They offer you a free glass of wine. But truly, their service is impeccable. Their food is divine. The branzino and fettuccine in the Parmesan bowl is so outstanding we don’t often deviate but when we do it’s an extraordinary special. The apps are all delicious. The dessert strawberry shortcake was so good and I don’t ever order that but yum! And the lyre mocktail aperaol spritz was on point. I didn’t even miss the alcohol. Thanks for always being so amazing with a 5 star team
