A truly Roman restaurant that runs for generations spanning into hundreds of years, actually 500 years. Maybe the oldest restaurant establishment in Rome. Among its clients were Caravaggio and Fellini, representing totally different generations. Guaranteed pure quality. You cannot be disappointed of anything you order. It is always my fallback place when l run out of ideas where to go and dine with satisfaction. Never fails me. Carrying a rich heritage, they do not need to be pretentious but live up to their historical fame. Very rich and satisfactory menu. The artichokes are to die for. Their meat menu is great, especially “abacchio” lamb. One of the best raviolis in town. The owner Paulo is always there. He is modest and friendly, attending each table and making sure everyone is a happy camper. Reservation is a must . Weekend nights are tricky and gets very crowded mostly jammed with Italians occupying long tables and challenging the decibel level. It is located in a popular area, a stone throw away from piazza San Lorenzo in Lucina.

As recommended by a podcast, this century-old restaurant makes good on the promise of great Roman dining in the heart of Rome. I was impressed by the tagliatelle porcini, and the selection of wine was excellent. We arrived early in the evening, the waiting staff were so lovely and welcoming. On warmer evenings, dining on the cobbled streets outside is an option. I'd love to revisit in the summer for that reason.
Delicious roman style artichokes.
Great food, good service, reasonable prices
I was surprised they didn't do pizza for being an old Rome restaurant. The bread given before the meal didn't taste fresh. I gave it a go anyway but was surprised the starter was very basic for 12, the main was okay but overall not worth the price for everything. It's mainly the reputation and location of it but wasn't worth me for what you pay for, seemed like a waste.
