Best Dog Friendly Restaurants in Gianicolense

While exploring Rome with my son, we were on the hunt for a memorable dinner spot and we found exactly that. This cozy, welcoming restaurant, run by a wonderful couple originally from Sicily completely blew us away. The carbonara and Cacio e pepe were out of this world perfectly creamy, rich, and full of flavor without being heavy. You can tell they use top quality ingredients and make everything with care. The sword fish was incredibly fresh and cooked just right, and the braciole was tender and pack with that deep, comforting flavor you hope for I traditional dishes. The atmosphere was warm and personal, like being welcomed into someone’a home. You can feel the pride and passion the owners put into every detail from the food to the conversation. It was easily one of the best meals we had in Rome and an experience we’ll both remember. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an American friendly restaurant with authentic Italian cooking with a touch of that Sicilian soul!

Very peaceful and relaxing environment. Beautiful scenery. Polite service.

We are not fans of "tourist trap" restaurants. This one did not disappoint. The food was scratch made and AMAZING. I had the fried zucchini flowers as an appetizer. They were crispy on the outside and perfect on the inside. The cacio e pepe my husband and I split was phenomenal. We got the tiramisu for dessert and it was delicious. We enjoy sitting outside and the area is definitely a little back alley- lots of graffiti making it not as pretty as some of the areas nearby. The food and incredible service made up for it. Recommend sitting inside, the interior is charming. We love eating in places where locals eat, and this was one of them. Highly recommend!!!

Absolutely phenomenal! From the moment I walked in, I knew I was in for something special. The pizza was nothing short of perfection—crispy crust, rich sauce, and toppings that tasted incredibly fresh. Every bite was a burst of flavor, and I was left completely speechless. The rest of the food was just as amazing, and the service was top-notch. You can tell they put love and passion into every dish. This is hands down the best pizza restaurant I’ve ever been to. If you’re looking for an unforgettable dining experience, this is the place to be! 10/10, highly recommend!
