    Found this restaurant through Rick Steves travel, everything he said was right on point. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was very nice and comfortable but the very best was the service, very friendly, not rushed. Total wonderful experience overall and would highly recommend this restaurant

    Tout a été exceptionnel lors de ce repas ! La nourriture (avec conseil du patron) était divine, le service rapide toujours avec le sourire, l’ambiance sous fond musical a été tout aussi appréciée ! Allez y les yeux fermés !

    A cozy family-run restaurant with local flavor We ate at this Monti neighborhood restaurant a number of years ago, had liked it, and decided to go back. The atmosphere at this small family-run restaurant was still nice and cosy, with local flavor and a friendly staff. The menu was a little more limited than I remember from years ago — for example, there was no fish or seafood on the menu. That being said, we had a nice meatball dish and spinach ravioli dish, both very good.

    The restaurant didn't honor my reservation on NYE even though I had a confirmation, so I'm giving it a 1 star for service and giving them 3 stars for everything else since I never sat down. The owner/manager did apologize but it wasn't worth much since i was left without a dinner reservation on NYE.
