Incredible!!! Food was outstanding and very reasonably priced. I would recommend pre-booking to save a long wait or disappointment at busier times of the year. The restaurant is very small and quaint, so will struggle to allow room for a pushchair if you intend on going with young children.

Food good but not great, definitely overpriced and too pretentious. Starter (octopus) was tough and our server replaced it with sthg much better (vitello tonnato). She was in the ball and dedicated to her job. Enjoyed the experience but once was enough.

We had wonderful service with excellent food. The restaurant is popular with Americans and so it was loud; I do wish they had a volume control. That’s not a comment on the restaurant, rather on my sensitivity to loud environments. So if you are like me & prefer a quieter setting for food then be aware.

This was a great dinner for our trip to Rome. The food was very good and we felt it was some of the best service we had during our trip. The fresh air in the open roof top was a great atmosphere to relax and enjoy.
