The 50 best desserts and snacks in Rome

The best cookie bakery in the city. Plus, the nice lady gave me some free cookies because I complimented her yellow oven. It’s a beautiful oven (and delicious cookies).

If you want to remember your childhood and your mother's/grandmother's cookies, then this is the perfect place! Delicious and varied cookies, too bad they didn't display the name of each one, to make it easier when ordering (for us tourists). A few blocks away we discovered another bakery, where they serve other types of Italian cookies (cannoli, maritozzo, tiramisu).

We came here during a local food tour and sampled several biscotti, each delicious and delightful

Good experience…..I tried 10 different types of biscuits…..each one with a very distinctive taste….also price very fair (4-5 EUR).

Food weighed per KG rather than individual pricing makes buying from here nice and easy. The biscotti that they sell are delicious, I would highly recommend trying one of each of what they sell. It is not going to cost a lot as they are mostly small bites. We bought from here then had the pleasure of having more from our Eating Europe Rome food tour.

The baked goods are fresh and delicious. I would walk here every morning when in rome and pick up my cornetos, or whatever other baked goods, I want it and just buy my cappuccino from a nice bar. The cornetos from the bars are never fresh. But this place is just amazing. It is worth the walk.

Great family bakery in Trestavare. Bought a variety of cookies and they were all delicious. Tried to get some more to bring back to US, but they had already closed. Don't miss this place!

Ice cream was very delicious, they have very original flavour. My favourite was straticiella (hope I could write it correct) Chocolate were also delicious, the one with biscuits and the one with almond were our favourites

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had such a wonderful experience at Venchi! Francesca helped me during my visit, and she was absolutely amazing. She greeted me with a warm smile, was incredibly friendly, and made the whole experience so enjoyable. Her customer service went above and beyond — she was patient, helpful, and genuinely cared about making sure I found the perfect flavor. Not only was the gelato delicious, but the service from Francesca made it even better. Highly recommend stopping here if you’re in the area!

This is some of the best gelato in Rome but it is quite pricey in comparison to some equally good and less popular gelaterias! We tried the pistachio (the best of the flavours we tried), vanilla, fig (also great) and coffee. One thing you have to try is getting your cone coated in melted chocolate and dipped in crunchy nougatine pieces before they add the gelato - absolutely delicious! Their chocolate, however, is second to none. Truly the best quality and an amazing range of flavours and varieties. I recommend anything they make with pistachio, the golden caramel flavour and the white chocolate with salted nuts.

The best ice cream ever! Their seasonal flavors, like olive oil and ricotta cheese, are absolutely amazing. This is my favorite ice cream shop!

Venchi Pantheon is a delightful chocolate and gelato shop located just a few steps behind the Pantheon. The gelato flavors truly explode in your mouth, leaving you wanting more. It was my first time trying olive oil gelato, and I can assure you it was absolutely amazing. If you’re visiting Rome, it’s definitely worth stopping by!

Must try their crepe and hot chocolate. The hot chocolate is thick, creamy and dark. The gelato is unmissable. Reasonably priced compared to local gelaterias

Tasty and creamy? That’s what you get at Venchi. Their gelato was so soft to the taste and flavourful. And their chocolate section was also very good looking

We tried 4 items: Tiramisu Classique, Mont Blanc, Cannoli, and café crema. 1. Tiramisu was good, classic. 2. Mont Blanc was the worst I've had in this life time. This should not be sold, it is disgraceful how bad it was. 3. Cannoli was not good. The filling flavor was off and it was poorly filled. Only the ends had ricotta, the entire center was empty. 4. The café crema was too sweet, not enjoyable. In the 14 days I've been in Italy, I've been in Venice, Florence, Chianti, Sorrento, Positano, Amalfi, and Rome. This place was the worst and the only place I felt like my money was wasted. Do not go here.

We come here with friends sometimes, mostly for the tiramisu. Even though you can find better tiramisu in Rome, this location has a nice atmosphere and it’s a good place to sit. The classic tiramisu is good enough and well-balanced. We also tried the gelato once, but it felt too touristy and colorful, not really my taste. Service is average. They ask for payment at the table before the dessert arrives. We ordered tea with it, which went really well. Parking is a big problem around here, since it’s close to Re di Roma square and the area is always busy. Still, it’s a nice spot to meet up and chat and don’t expect high quality

Definitely recommend to visit Pompi in via Albalonga! This location is a sit-down place with service. We visited twice during our short stay in Rome. The selection of cakes is great and everything we tried tasted amazing. The staff was very friendly and even remembered us :)

Some staff are nice but the rest are not..typical italian customer service. Luckily their tiramisu is above good, otherwise nothing special here. The ambience is okay.

The tiramisu is refreshing and fluffy, croissants are one of the best I've had. The waiters are nice and welcoming, one of them even saved our water bottle when we forgot it so he could give it back to us tomorrow. They are patient and supportive if you try and practice speaking italian with them, especially the guys that work behind the bar!

Excellent Tiramisu, Pannacotta and service Quality. The staff speak some English too. Will go back there.

They have different tastes of tiramisu I tried the the pistachio one. It was good and it was a new taste for me. I liked it, but it wasn’t something that I say I will come to have that one again. But I think it worth trying. The staff were super friendly and professional The cafeteria itself looks good and it’s clean

This is truly the best maritozzo in Rome. The bun is light, the cream has a lemon zest that balances everything beautifully, and the dessert isn’t overly sweet, which I see as a huge plus. In addition, the wild berry pâtissier was excellent, and I also tasted the cake with vanilla cream and chocolate crisps — it was a real celebration.

If you also like Italian cream buns, then you absolutely cannot miss this bakery. In addition to being able to choose large or small cream buns, it also offers a variety of different styles of pastries made with cream and ordinary bread. In addition, the shop is actually composed of a main bakery and a coffee shop. If you only want cream buns, you can go directly to the coffee shop to place an order and buy the coffee you want. But if you want to take away or choose other styles of pastries, you can only buy them in the bakery first and then go to the coffee shop to choose your favorite coffee. In short, this is also a must-try bakery in Rome.

Stopped at Regoli Pasticceria to try the Maritozzi, and it was definitely worth the short wait in line. Service was quick and friendly, and the pastry was fresh, fluffy, and delicious. There are plenty of other tempting options in the bakery too. Would definitely come back and recommend- so tasty!

Worth the visit. Great service. Delicious pastries. This spot was a 10min walk from my hotel and I stumbled into it one morning looking for a caffe. Ended up eating a cannoli and taking some pastries to go. The Sfogliatella was delicious, it had 2 different types of stuffing, the main being the traditional style semolina creamed mixture as well as a cannoli ricotta style. The ricotta style didn’t not have the same taste as you would except, it was creamer. Different from what I am use to but delicious!

This was my first time trying the famous marritozzo from Regoli, and it didn’t disappoint. The brioche bun was very airy and fluffy, with a slight lemon zest to it, which I enjoyed. The whipped cream was also very light and delicious, as it wasn’t too sweet. I wouldn’t go out of the way, if you’re only in Rome for a short visit, but do recommend if you’re nearby the establishment.

The fagottini di ricotta is (no exaggeration) the best pastry I’ve had in my life! Highly recommend that one, and the wild strawberry tart is very good too. The maritozzi and cannoli were just okay in my opinion, but they seem to be really popular. Went here 2 days in a row, once at 8am and another at 10am. There was no queue at 8am but at 10am I had to wait around half an hour, so definitely try to go early.

Delicious and beautiful pastries, be prepared to wait in line and be ready to point if you don't know Italian. They were very helpful and kind to us even with a language barrier, the cream puff pastries were to die for, and the fruit tart was super fresh. Would certainly come back!!

There is something not quite right about the pistachio cannolo. The pastry that encases the filling curves in quickly from the middle, clearly too little pastry relative to the amount of filling, and the filling was very underwhelming - not quite sure how best to describe it but it was thin and not as creamy as past cannoli I’ve had - like very diluted ricotta cheese filling. It was also evident when some filling got onto the paper, you can see how translucent it is. True cannolo filling will be thick, and creamy, not translucent. Regretted getting the large one. Based on my experience, I wouldn’t come back again. But if you really want a cannolo in Rome, perhaps best to get a small one to sample first.

We discovered this lovely little café near our hotel in Rome, and it quickly became our go-to breakfast spot every morning. The ricotta-filled cornetto was absolutely incredible. I still think about it and can’t wait to have it again on my next visit! We also enjoyed their cannoli and coffee, which were both really good. The staff were friendly, and the place had that cozy, local Italian charm 🤍

A good try, they're most known for their cannoli, so we were set on ordering it. I never had a cannoli, so I was glad to give them a try here. They have a limited seating area but I was able to snag a free table. We got three small cannolis to share: ricotta, limone, and pistachio. We enjoyed the limone the most, followed by the ricotta. Overall, we enjoyed the cannolis here, glad I was able to get a table so that we can rest for a bit as we enjoyed the sweets. follow @food.vince on instagram and tiktok for more travel eats!

Simply the best cannoli I’ve ever had. If you’re in town and have even the slightest sweet tooth, this iconic dessert shop is an absolute must-visit.

Excellent cannoli and coffee a little bit off the beaten track. Friendly staff and very reasonable prices. Ricotta cannoli was a winner!

Whenever in Rome I always come to this little pastry shop, as I love cannoli and they have several sweets which are worth trying. You order at the counter, pay, and then you can sit in one of the two rooms they have. The place is not crowded with tables, so you can relax for a bit without being bothered. Their coffee is ok, while the cannolis were delicious. I had two small ones, one with orange and the other one with lemon cream. Crispy, tangy and with much filling. Staff were very friendly and pleasant, prices quite honest. Overall a great find.

Good coffee - intense and smooth. Nice cannoli, I got pistachio and original (ricotta). I couldn't taste the pistachio flavour but the original one was nice.

We were looking for something light for lunch and the name caught our 👁️. They serve pastries, coffee (of course) and gelato too. The food all looked delicious and we wanted to try more but there is a limit to the tummy space. The place is a bit tight and really needs some squeezing around. But we has a good lunch nonetheless .

WORST FOOD AND SERVICE IN ROME! The food was really bad and they took 25 minutes to bring their "american food" which the juice was not fresh AT ALL, the bacon was very disgusting and they put a reall tiny portion of scra eggs. I pay 18€ for nothing! Never go there!

Everything we had there was genuinely disgusting, pizza, and ice cream. Fries are okay. They mistake my order and bring me a small beer instead of a pint It's been fixed by bringing me the same beer diluted with water. Yeah, I've noticed the colour has changed. It tastes pretty okay tho. I wasn't that brave enough to try that whipped cream they had.

Try other places on this street. Stopped for a cannoli and was charged maximum price. There are three sizes and prices on the menu and we were not offered the options. Flavor was ok but nothing special. Wish I looked up reviews before stopping.

The café had a relatively clean space, and the pastries—especially the croissants and doughnuts—were decent. The staff weren’t particularly friendly or unfriendly; just average. One good thing was that it wasn’t too crowded. Overall, it was an okay experience—not bad, but not impressive enough to make me want to go back. Just a pretty average place.

terrible food, the sponge of my tiramisu tasted like cardboard and the bottom was incredibly liquidy, and had a strange taste. worst of all there was a piece of METAL wire in it!!! had to spit it out of my mouth. ice cream didn’t taste good either, coffee was okay.

MOULDY PASTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SOUR RICE BALLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Brought before our flight back home! This place wants to KILL its customers!!!!!!! DO NOT EAT HERE and REPORT to ENVIRONMENTAL!!!! HAZARDOUS !!!

It was really crowded and they have very few tables. But its all worth the wait, well prepared ans tastes so good. Only issue is that, for coffees its vending machine. Service was quick and the staff was really friendly.

Staff was super nice and spoke excellent English, service was great and it wasn’t noisy and we were able to take a seat inside. We ordered a cinnamon roll and a pain au chocolate. Both were amazing, and fairly cheap for their quality (both €1,80). To drink we had a water, which was nicely cooled, and a biologically pressed pear juice, which is definitely worth trying despite the price tag (€4,80). This place is worth going to!

Very tasty pastry and sandwiches. Perfect for a breakfast. Mini pizza were our favourites and croissants but everything we tried was just great. We ate here in every morning durring our stay in Trastevere. ❤️🩵🩷

French bakery in Rome. The place is not to big, but maybe just enough for the sitting area. The breads were delicious as we expect from French bakery.

Kouign Amann was really buttery and layered, enjoyed it a lot while eating it. Vegan sandwich was nice to but the bread was too rough for a “baguette”. Ambiance is nice but PACKED. Better to grab some coffee and pastry and walk around :) Ps: surprised that they do not have espresso machine and let you grand from a coffee machine, was surprisingly tasty tho.

After glowing reviews of there quiche. I ordered both florantine and veggitable. Maybe vegetables are out of season this early in june but I received an egg and pea quiche. Not exactly bad just not the same veggie quiche that got the rave reviews! Very disappointed. I ordered many other things. They all look consistent with the photos mostly. Some were much smaller and some larger.

The pastries were beautiful, the croissant crema was a firm favourite among my group

A bit of a queue but definitely worth it! A unique range of flavours and great value for money, 3€ for a double flavour cone! Would have it every day!

This was by FAR the best gelato I had my entire trip! And as someone gluten free, having a super tasty gluten free cone made it all the better. The pistachio and straciatella were super creamy and perfectly flavored. I do wish the pistachio had been a bit stronger, I found it to be a little mild, but it was still incredible. The employees were all very friendly. They always ask if you want whipped cream on top too! Which I did not experience at any other gelato shop. Overall, PLEASE make your way here if you’re staying in Rome, gluten free or not. I wish I could take it back to America with me!

Creative flavors, solid quality—perfect if you’re okay with a quick in-and-out experience! 👍 Stopped by this Fatamorgana location after an evening exploring Trastevere and found out they’re known for their inventive flavors—definitely worth a taste 😋 The shop was crowded and the pace felt rushed, but being able to sample a few flavors while waiting in line made the choice easier (and fun) 🤗 Fatamorgana is a chain with multiple locations across Rome. While I usually prefer smaller, one-off gelaterias, the quality here still stood out. Note: There’s no seating inside, so it’s a true grab-and-go spot. We ended up enjoying ours while wandering the neighborhood before it melted ✨

We visited a couple of times - flavors are great, there's a wide selection and the quality is high. The first time the service was efficient and friendly enough, the second time the woman serving us was surly and really stingy with the amount. For the price, it should be better. Picture is from the first visit - the second time we paid for a bigger size, and got less.

Quintessential authentic Italian gelato with no frills and extremely kind and patient staff.

Flavors are over the top and spot on. Probably the best gelato in terms of flavor. The toasted almond, pear, fennel honey, and banana sesame were outstanding.

If it would be possible to give 10 stars I would. The flavors where out of this world! They where SO GOOD! Only negative point is that the portions are relatively small, but the price is also really fair compared to other places… so honestly… it’s still a MUST TRY if you’re in Rome.

These reviews aren't kidding about the pistachio cornetto - good LORD that's a tasty pastry. Maybe the best I've had during these two weeks in Europe? I dunno, but that thing is straight flames bro.

What a great breakfast this morning! The food was delicious, the price was right, and the orange juice was fantastic. Plus, they have outdoor seating.

Little cafe with outdoor seating. They have the menu in Italian and English. Coffee, pastries, sandwiches etc for sale. Very nice and reasonably priced. At time of writing a cappuccino is €1.50 and their specialty croissants are also €1.50, including the pistachio variety which is nearly as good as the one near the Trevi fountain but half the price! Quiet area and very close to the Vittorio Emanuele metro station. I greatly recommend this cafe.

I stumbled upon this place by accident, but I'm so glad I did! The staff were incredibly polite and helpful, making my experience even better. Given its convenient location right next to my hostel, I'd totally recommend it to others. It's definitely worth checking out!

When we arrived there were no pastries or sandwiches left. It was around 11:30 in the morning. We had options from what was left and croissants felt like they were old. Cappuccino was good

Cheap and quick Italian breakfast. Espresso only £1.20 and Cornetto is £1.20. one of the few places open early in the morning, so a good choice for a quick and good breakfast to and from Roma Termini

The area is very crowded and noisy. They don’t have many alternative milk options (only soy). I got an Americano, croissant, and a lemon cake…everything was 5/10. The staff is very very nice tho.

Beautiful store/cafe with nice history to it. Went in to get some chocolates and ended up sitting in for a trio chocolate cappuccino which was amazing such a cool experience and the coffee and chocolate itself was very tasty. The chocolatier section was very good a lovely lady served us and was kind enough to explain what each chocolate was, there was a large variety of many flavours to choose from. Very reasonable pricing all around. Definitely make this a place to visit if you're in the area!

The Saint Sebastian cake was delicious and generously portioned for two people. However, it’s slightly overpriced.

My go-to spot in San Lorenzo neighborhood, this serene retreat is where I unwind with friends or enjoy a peaceful moment alone. The ambient lighting, soft music, and delightful chocolates create a truly relaxing experience. Favorite spot for chocolate lovers 🍫

Warm ambiance, friendly and knowledgeable people with the star of the place...the chocolate! What an amazing place. There are so many things to try, it'll make your head spin, but in a good way. High quality chocolate with creative approaches leaves you with a decadent sense of flavor. Must try. Must return if possible...a given. What a great experience in both service and taste!

Where do I even start with this post.. if you are in Rome and you love chocolate, please visit. The chocolate beverages are really beyond my expectations. The small dessert bites/ cake are ok, not the best. Took away a slice of chocolate cake not overly sweet so it was perfect. Service was excellent! Staff were friendly and attentive despite being busy. The place fills up rather quickly so be prepared to wait.

Amazing and nice staff, great atmosphere, chocolate out of this world. Google says you need to reserve a place but thats not true, just go there like any other coffee house. very recommended to sit down.

You have to try their restaurant. In the description it says a chocolate factory but I think more than that their food is amazing! Dishes are well designed and customized with their amazing housemade chocolates.

It tasted like plain cream in a sandwich. A dessert with no special qualities. If it’s on your way, you can give it a try, but it’s definitely not worth a special trip.

Typical Italian place for a coffee and some pastries (or, as they call it - breakfast 😁), most of them are sweet, but a few savory options are also available. Quick service, no English, but we understood each other quite nicely 👍🏻 a few tables outside, to enjoy the sun while having a coffee and a bite (no nice views, as it's a neighbourhood cafe, but it's ok)

I was here on a Saturday night at around 10 and was surprised to see freshly baked items coming from the kitchen. Then looking at their timings, realised they are open 24h except on Mondays or so. Everything that we brought was delicious.

Such a cute little authentic Roman pastry shoppe. Incredible food with an old and beautiful vibe. A few tables and chairs outside to compliment. Very friendly staff willing to overcome my language barrier.

Loved this old-school pastry shop, famous obviously for the maritozzaro, but I got a Pasticciotto, filled with vanilla custard cream, and it is the best thing I have eaten since arriving in Rome. I’m going to hop on the 8 tram tomorrow and buy more.

I enjoyed the Maritozzi and a cappuccino this morning and it did not disappoint. Glad I found this bakery on my visit!!! 🫶🏼

The owner was lovely - but I heard so many amazing things about the maritozzaro that I was quite let down. It’s just bread with cream inside. The simplest you can imagine. Wasn’t bad per se, just, curb your expectations..

Try the ricotta sour cherry tart if you're in the area. Even though it's sold by weight, the lady at the counter wouldn't cut anything smaller than what is pictured below and it came out to around 5 euros. It sounds and looks heavy, but the tart is actually quite light and not too sweet. The fluffy, rich, and slightly sweet ricotta is balanced out by the sour cherry base. There are a couple public benches across the street to sit on while enjoying your treat which is a nice bonus!

Great place for a sweet treat. Sold by the weight, an average slices of about €4. Don't worry if they have sold out of ricotta and cherry. The other offerings are great too!

Essential stop in Rome for traditional Jewish bakes. Cherry Ricotta Tart is the most popular here but the Pizza Ebraica and Soft Almond Amaretti deserve more praise. If you catch the Pizza Ebraica warm from the oven (usually on Friday mornings) you hit the jackpot. The nonnas behind the counter are understandably a little curt because of language barriers but still very welcoming. Be polite, ask or point to what you want, and don’t linger too long. Go earlier in the day when things are still fresh.

After 20 minutes waiting for ordering, we ordered two pieces of ricotta with cherry and chocolate, which is more delicious with cherry. They are so slow and the atmosphere was not that very kind and catchy. It is worth to try one. But I ate a better one somewhere else in Rome.

Arrived around 11:15 on a Friday. It’s best to get here early as there was a que down the road when I had left also they run out of food later on the day. On a Friday they close early and aren’t open on Saturday engaging Sabbath. One downside they had some burnt ‘pizza’ I wasn’t going to buy it but the old lady went to the back and brought out a freshly baked one that wasn’t burnt and the younger lady started telling her off for it saying they had to sell the burnt ones first… Other than this good experience and lovely food. The shop is very small and no outdoor seating.

A traditional Italian kosher bakery that sells excellent cakes and biscuits. I highly recommend their apple strudel and almond cake with apricot jam as well as their ricotta and chocolate cake. Their biscuits (shown in the photos) are also good.

Cherry tart was delicious. It is 34 euro tho. There is no small one. Made that mistake!

I first went to Pompi and tried two tiramisus: the gluten-free and the pistachio. I loved them so much that I went back in the afternoon to try the classic one as well. All three were amazing, but the pistachio was my absolute favorite. Surprisingly, the gluten-free version was even better than the classic, in my opinion. I truly think this is the best tiramisu in Rome. At the counter, I asked if it was halal, and the lady said yes. The fact that they even know what halal means made me very happy, so Muslims can enjoy it with peace of mind.

I tried Pompi’s Classico tiramisù, and wow—it literally melts in your mouth like a dream. Each bite is creamy heaven, and the dark chocolate bits give that perfect little crunch that makes it irresistible. I honestly could eat the whole thing in one sitting. This isn’t just dessert—it’s pure joy on a spoon. I also tried the pistacchio but my heart belongs to the Classico! 🤩 Absolute perfection.❤️

Pretty nice tiramisu and really fast service. The tiramisu itself wasn’t too sweet nice and light,but the pistachio flavor wasn’t very strong. It’s not very "in your face," which could be good for some and less so for others, but it’s still a nice treat.

I tried the classic tiramisu, and it was one of the best I’ve ever had! The flavor was perfectly balanced, not too strong on the coffee, not too creamy or sweet, just right. The portion was generous too, making it a truly satisfying dessert.

We tried the gluten-free tiramisu the classic and we took the pistachio the normal flavour. It was below expectation and overrated.

Best tiramisu I had in Rome. Seasonal flavor was just as fabulous (mango) and super fresh. Original tiramisu was light and packed with flavor. Great size for 2-3 to share for only €6

Absolutely divine tiramisù – a must-visit in Rome! Pompi truly lives up to its reputation as the king of tiramisù. The texture is perfectly creamy, the balance of coffee and cocoa is spot on, and the portion size is generous. I tried the classic version, but the strawberry and pistachio flavors are also exceptional – rich, flavorful, and not overly sweet. The shop is well-organized, service is fast, and staff are friendly even during busy hours. It’s the ideal stop after sightseeing or for a late-night dessert craving. Prices are reasonable considering the quality. Whether you’re a tiramisù lover or just want to try the best in town, Pompi won’t disappoint. Highly recommended!

Best pastry shop in the whole quadrant: amazing croissants, delicious pies, and a really nice atmosphere! Simply love it

They have wide variety of croissants, cakes, sandwiches, and other pastries. I love their croissant because of its rich and flavorful taste. Not dry. Not bland.😁 Plus, the atmosphere is great!

Delicious pastries, friendly staff, wonderful prices!

I’ve been in Rome for a month now and this is far the best coffee place I’ve been to. Highly recommended.

Probably one of the best coffee shops in Rome - a wide range of different snacks, sweets and cakes. Pleasant service and very good coffee :)

Super dilicous, clean and nice stuff

Delicious coffee, croissants and sandwiches, very nice service. Perfect place for breakfast

Everything was absolutely amazing! The Carbonara was hands down the best we've ever had—just like Vincenzo Prosperi (from Vincenzo's Plate) promised. 😁💜 The Maritozzi were on another level 🤤! We tried the one with codfish, hummus, and radish, as well as the eggplant parmigiana Maritozzo—both were incredible. Our only suggestion to enhance the experience would be to have more staff attending the tables. With just three people covering the dining area, terrace, and billing on a busy Friday night, it felt a bit understaffed. Just to be clear, they were doing their best—the issue stemmed from management.

Came here for lunch which was a great pick! Meatballs were good tho small. Cacio e pepe was amazing a must have. Carbanara was also a must have. Price point to food portion a little off but quality does make up for it.

This place is amazing! We had two delicious pasta dishes. At first there was some mix up with our order, but Nicola fixed it very quickly. The staff is friendly, they let us enter and order before they opened since they saw us waiting. The food was incredible. Highly recommended!

Best carbonara in town but also great starters! a recommended place for visitors!

Best Carbonara I have ever had. For real. Very Kind Service. Nice Ambiente. Fair Prices. We enjoyed it very much.

Carbonara was the best I’ve had in Rome.

The staff are really nice and can speak english pretty well so just say hey :D you can ask for the store recommendation and they will gladly recommend their best. I loved the Vegetarian carbonara so if you're on a special diet it's very on point and without forgetting getting the fried pizza besides the Maritozzo which is a must in the store i picked the smocked salmon with Creme fresh and it's to die for all in all a great place, hope to come by again

We visited La Romana this summer and completely fell in love with it. Here, the gelato is rich, creamy, and packed with flavor — and the free fresh whipped cream on top is the perfect finishing touch! Their pistachio was incredibly nutty and intense, and the zabaglione was smooth, classic, and unforgettable. The staff were warm and friendly, the atmosphere lively but relaxed and everything felt authentically Roman. Hands down a must-visit if you want to taste some of the best gelato in Rome!

It was that good that I couldn’t resist getting a second serving right after finishing the first! Tried the brioche first, then the cup version. The bread was okay, but the real star was the fruity gelato. The staff recommended the blueberry for round two, and omgggg its best flavour ever! Totally recommend the blueberry! Do try if you're nearby the area

I had never seen such a long line at an ice cream shop, but hey, we're on vacation, no pressure. The shop is beautifully designed, with amazing baked goods. We ordered gelato, which was incredible. Definitely worth the wait.

This is my first time in Italy and I used to always have the dark chocolate flavor every time we stopped for gelato. Not anymore. I really enjoy the tart and fruity flavors. They are supreme lol… and so delicious!! Try them all!! Black cherry, mulberry, blueberry.. strawberries… they’re all very good 👍🏻

The best gelato we had in Rome this year. €3 smallest portion with two flavours, Nutella fillings, cookie Super friendly staff, easy to order and navigate. No rush. You can sit in. They have toilet as well.

Been in Rome for 5 days now and this was far and above the best gelato we had so far. No big fancy displays and glass cases. They had a wise selection of flavors as well and a bunch of other deserts like tiramisu and chocolates. Highly recommend putting this on your list of places for a cup or cone of gelato

Every time I go to Rome I visit La Romana, as it offers delicious gelato and a decent variety of flavors, and it is located within walking distance from Termini station. I visited twice this gelateria within a few days, and chose both some new flavors and some original ones. They have a new line based on movies, and I ordered one scoop which had banana inside, and another one with popcorn and pistachio. The first one, despite loving bananas, wasn’t good at all, the second flavour was delicious though. On my next visit I had zabaione and amarena, which were both amazing. Staff are friendly, prices fair and there’s the chance to sit inside or outdoor as well.

My husband and I tried a ton of gelato during our time in Rome. This place was by far the best! I loved the Oreo and cheesecake, top 5 ice creams/gelatos I’ve ever eaten. My husband loved the strawberry, watermelon, peach, mango, etc. Pretty much any fruit flavor. The ladies working were friendly. Can’t recommend enough!

It’s a small place with only a few tables, but that doesn’t matter — the main point is the ice cream flavor. They have absolutely delicious ice cream. It was my first time trying perfectly made coffee ice cream 😊 But that’s just the beginning, because they offer flavors for different preferences, and I’m absolutely sure you won’t regret it if you give this place a shot 😉

Amazing ice cream. I tried Profumo di Sardegna. And it was very good and special.

About 150m from the Trevi Fountain, the ice cream is delicious! 🍨 Toss a coin in the Fountain then find Gelateria Valentino for the best Gelato in Rome!

First time here in 2015. 10 year later still one the best gellato I've ever had. The menta is outstanding.

I really don’t think it’s worth it. Firstly we’ve been told we cannot try flavors, so we had to choose on a spot. Secondly, the service kinda lazy or tired not sure which one but definitely not too excited to do thier job. And lastly the gelato itself was ok.. you can find way better ones in the city just not so close to the fountain.

Absolutely delicious gelato! This was hands down some of the best gelato I’ve had in Italy. The flavors were fresh and intense — especially the cheesecake and coconut.The texture was perfectly creamy, not too sweet, and you could tell they use high-quality ingredients. Friendly service and a great location too. Highly recommend stopping here if you’re nearby!

We stopped by Two Sizes for a tiramisu fix and it did not disappoint! The concept is fantastic. It is offering this classic dessert in two perfect portion sizes. We tried both the original and the pistachio tiramisu. The original was absolutely flawless; creamy, coffee-soaked, and everything a great tiramisu should be. The pistachio version was a delicious and creative twist, with a wonderful nutty flavor that complemented the mascarpone perfectly. It's a must-visit for any tiramisu lover. The quality is outstanding, and it's the perfect spot for a quick, delicious treat while exploring Rome. We highly recommend trying both!

Not sure if it's the best tiramisu in town but definitely not for me. The current version is just a little bit too sweet. It's smooth and creamy. It's very good to a lot of people as you can see from the long lines in the pictures.

Two Sizes is a must-visit in Rome for tiramisu lovers. The name says it all, you can choose either a small or large portion, and every bite is fantastic. They have several flavors besides the classic, including pistachio, caramel, peanut, and strawberry. The pistachio, classic and caramel were all my favorites. The texture is perfectly creamy with just the right balance of espresso and sweetness. It’s easily some of the best tiramisu I’ve ever had. There’s usually a line, but it moves quickly and is absolutely worth it. A perfect stop for dessert while wandering through the city.

Just like their moto says THE BEST TIRAMISU IN TOWN, i’d say it’s best in the world I freaking love the staffs, they’re soo friendly you’ll visit there just to meet them 😊❤️ We tried two types of the tiramisus and it was so good, it’s packed with flavours and sweetness, they’re always chilled and ready to eat. We can take the cups with us after we have eaten them, They even offered me a bag to carry the cups just to keep them as a souvenir ❤️ A must place to visit if you are in Rome 😊🫶

Waiting in the queue is totally worth it! Amazing tiramisu with lots of different varieties. We had the peanut butter one and the Halloween special limited edition Oreo one. Both were great! We took the tiramisu and walked to Piazza novona(short walk away) and sat by the fountains to enjoy it!

A quick service tiramisu place where you’ll find tiramisu in 2 sized cups. Hence the name of the place. They serve 5 flavours, Classic, Caramel, Strawberry, Pistachio, and Peanut. We tried Caramel, Classic, and Strawberry. They were all good. Nothing too fancy and definitely not the best. You can definitely have better tiramisu at other restaurants. Big cup is €4 and small is €3. The cream tasted fresh and quite filling and the base was nice and moist. We also tried a small chocolate Cannoli which was essentially Nutella filling. It was fine and I believe it costed €2 You can give it a try if you just got out of a nearby restaurant and are craving a casual dessert.

This is a great spot with delicious tiramisu available in different varieties and two sizes. The service is very fast, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. The pistachio tiramisu is the most flavorful and highly recommended. It’s perfect for anyone looking to enjoy a classic Italian dessert with a tasty twist and excellent service.

It’s one of the city’s most famous coffee spots, always buzzing with both locals and tourists. Founded in 1944 as a coffee roastery, the café opened its bar in 1946 as a place to taste blends before purchase, and today it remains a true landmark in Rome. They offer coffee, pastries, and traditional Italian desserts. The coffee was decent, though personally I found it just okay compared to the hype, and the desserts were fine but nothing particularly standout. Still, the unique blends, affordable prices, and the experience of enjoying an espresso in such a historic setting make it worth a stop.

I personally think their iced espresso is a must-try. It has a rich flavor, and paired with the cool shaved ice and cream, it is definitely a brand new coffee experience in terms of both taste and flavor! In addition to ordering coffee on the spot, they also provide their own coffee beans and related coffee equipment. Those who are interested in brewing coffee can purchase them here.

As my final stop before leaving Rome, I visited La Casa del Caffè Tazza d’Oro, a place that perfectly captured the essence of Italian coffee culture. After spending days exploring and learning the true art of espresso, this was the ideal way to conclude the journey. The doppio espresso had a rich, full-bodied flavor with a pleasant acidity that lingered just long enough to appreciate its depth. Paired with just the right touch of sugar, it was beautifully balanced — intense yet smooth, simple yet profound. It wasn’t just a cup of coffee; it was a moment of reflection — the culmination of everything I had come to love about Italy’s coffee traditions. I left with a quiet satisfaction, knowing that this final espresso would remain one of the most memorable tastes of the entire trip.

We stopped by La Casa del Caffè (right behind the Pantheon) after seeing the glowing reviews, and it absolutely lived up to the hype! I ordered a cappuccino, and wow—it was honestly the best I’ve ever had. Smooth, rich, perfectly balanced… so good that I ordered a second one on the spot. My wife had a cold coffee with cream, and she really enjoyed it as well—refreshing and full of flavor. They have a huge menu with lots of coffee options, and surprisingly, the prices were very reasonable—especially given the central location. If you’re near the Pantheon and love coffee, this place is a must-visit. Great quality, quick service, and a true Roman coffee experience.

We heard good things about the baking 🥐here so we made sure to drop in. We tried the cannoli with the ricotta cheese filling. It was mildly sweet, not too rich, and absolutely delicious. We tried the Sfogliatella which was good, but a little heavy for my taste. The doughnut, danish, and crossiants were also delicious here. The pastries were flaky, crisp, and are definitely the best we had in Rome. The staff at the desk are not overly friendly, but I went there for the pastries not service, so I was not bothered. You place your order at the register here (it was not too straightforward). I could not recommend this bakery enough, I wish we had one like this at home 🇨🇦

We tried only coffee. It was delicious, but the atmosphere was a bit disappointing because we just came in during peak time. - too many people and too much noise, but it probably is because they have good quality. 👌🙏🏼 But that’s fine. Coffee was great - recommend it! :) would go again. Nice waiters also :)

We wanted a solid, good quality Italian cup of coffee and did not want to overpay. This is the place - the coffee quality is excellent we did not want to pay an extra euro for each cup to sit down so we drank it in the proper Italian style at the bar, the place is old and quite unique and the coffee is really really good. I recommend.

First gelato shop I found without strawberry flavor! Not the best in the city, but overall okay. We tried the lemon, which was too icy for me. Dark chocolate was the best of the bunch. Raspberry lacked flavor, while hazelnut and Madagascar vanilla were just okay. In general, it's fine — but I’d prefer other gelato spots in Rome.

One of the best ice creams I’ve ever had!! The fruits flavours are nearly sorbet and you can really taste the whole fruit. Absolutely amazing and two flavours only cost 3,50€.

Simply the best gelato I’ve had in Italy. Gelateria del Teatro offers top-quality, handmade gelato that feels both artisanal and pure — every flavor tasted incredibly fresh and carefully balanced. We tried Pistachio, Truffle Chocolate, and a fruit flavor, and each one was outstanding in its own way. The pistachio was creamy and nutty, the truffle chocolate was deep and luxurious, and the fruit flavor added a refreshing contrast that rounded out the experience perfectly. It’s the kind of gelateria that makes you want to try every single flavor in the case. A must-visit in Rome for anyone who wants to experience gelato at its finest — authentic, elegant, and unforgettable.

Really delicious gelato with some amazing flavors that change night to night. The rose flavor was a favorite. Also we loved this place because of the lovely adjoining piazza.

Not the best gelato we had on the pretty but decent good gelato. It’s hard to find ‘bad’ gelato in Italy. Nothing to go back to. The service was great though, gave us a recommendation for amazing pasta.

★★★★★ Gelateria del Teatro – Rome One of the best gelaterias we’ve tried in Rome. The flavors are authentic, creamy, and perfectly balanced. My wife had Coconut and Dulce de Leche, while I went for Pistachio and Milk Chocolate. They were so good that I ended up getting another one with Coconut and Dulce de Leche just to enjoy that taste again. The Coconut flavor is truly exceptional — fresh, smooth, and natural, something you don’t often find elsewhere. If you want to try a flavor that’s not so common but absolutely delicious, that’s the one to go for. The Pistachio has just the right balance between richness and sweetness. A charming spot with artisanal quality and friendly service. Definitely a must-visit in Rome for real gelato lovers.

Very interesting flavours and huge selection. You can also pick ice cream by dietary restrictions.

A must try on your Roman holiday! Caffe Greco seems to get a lot of mixed review. Having experienced it myself I can say it’s a caffe in its own league. It’s equal parts caffe and museum, not to mention a respectful nod to a time long passed. Being one of the oldest caffes in Europe, people among the ranks of Lord Byron have traversed the threshold and dined within these walls. And for me that is part of what going here is all about. You’re buying entry to be transported back in time and sit in the same spots as some of history’s great minds. I think it’s worth noting coffee culture in Italy is very different from other countries, and especially the US. Usually being a walk up bar where you slap down one Euro, get a shot of espresso in under a minute, drink quickly, and move on with your day. This is not that place. You sit down, get served crème in a silver dish by a waiter in a tuxedo, and order fabulous tortes to indulge in the coffee experience. But keep in mind, by and large, Italians do not drown their food in sugar like so many people, and especially Americans, are used to. I think this is why some people find the experience to be lacking. I’ve always found the food here to be exceptional, but you need to be mentally and maybe emotionally prepared to drop some cash for coffee and cake. This is on the more luxe side of experiences. If that is your thing, then this is a must try on your Roman holiday.

We visited Caffè Greco near Piazza di Spagna and were really disappointed. The hot chocolate was basically just melted chocolate, extremely thick and hard to drink. I couldn’t even finish one spoon. It was honestly unpleasant. We also ordered a small sandwich that cost around €20, and the espresso was €12. The hot chocolate alone was €15. In total, we had just 2-3 items and ended up paying around €80, which felt completely unjustified for the quality and quantity we got. The place may be historic, but it’s extremely overpriced, and the experience didn’t live up to the hype at all.

Rome’s oldest café, founded in 1760, Antico Caffè Greco is less a coffee stop than a living museum of the Grand Tour. Goethe, Liszt, Keats, and Stendhal once sat here, and the red velvet benches, gilt frames, and statuary still carry that salon-like atmosphere. The macchiato and cheesecake I ordered were serviceable (6/10 and 5/10), but the price goes beyond what’s on the plate: it’s the cost of continuity. Greco faces huge rent pressures from its landlord and uncertain protection for its heritage. To sit here is to make a small contribution to a place that has outlasted empires, where conversation and culture have lingered for centuries.

We went to this cafe hoping to have a good cake and coffee served by experienced personnel and instead found ourselves disappointed by very poor service and unsavoury cake. We ordered a lemon cake that was supposed to be very good according to the waitress’ suggestion. Instead the taste of the cake was abysmal. We got served some kind of jelly looking cake that tasted nothing like lemon. The cream was solid and had multiple colour in it. Something that it is not really common in this specific type of cake. It looked somewhat not really fresh. Of course we did not eat it and expressed our disappointment to the waitress but our complain was unheard and met with unpleasantry which definitely should not belong to this kind of places. In the end we were charged 14 euros for a cake that we did not eat. Would never go back there again.

The coffee shop feels like a museum — the atmosphere is truly unique and different from any regular café. The coffee is good, but the prices are quite high.

Antico Caffè Greco: A Roman Treasure Stepping through the narrow doorway of Antico Caffè Greco on Via dei Condotti feels like entering a living museum where time moves at the pace of perfectly pulled espresso. Founded in 1760, this legendary Roman coffeehouse has been serving more than just beverages—it's been nurturing souls, inspiring artists, and creating moments of pure magic for over two and a half centuries. The dimly lit interior, with its burgundy velvet banquettes and marble-topped tables, whispers stories of the countless luminaries who once sat in these very seats. Goethe penned letters here, Casanova plotted his romantic adventures, and Keats found solace in the aromatic embrace of Italian coffee culture. The walls, adorned with portraits and memorabilia, seem to pulse with the creative energy of generations past. What strikes me most profoundly about Caffè Greco is how it makes you feel like you're part of something eternal. The ritual of standing at the marble bar, watching the barista's practiced hands work their alchemy, connects you to centuries of Romans who have performed this same daily dance. The coffee itself—rich, bold, and served in delicate porcelain cups—tastes like liquid history. #RomaNeiNegoziStoriciEccellenza #PatrimonioUrbano @negozistoricieccellenzaroma

Coffee cream was amazing, cappuccino was ok and the cheesecake was great and not too sweet. The price is on the high but worth it for the location near the Spanish steps.

This place is absolutely amazing! Coming every day here since I've discovered it:)

We had “breakfast” at Monica’s twice this past week, staff and service were very good. English isn’t readily spoken; but understood well enough to get orders done. The pastries and caffès were good and tasty, their table service was quick and polite. A good place to start your day from.

Had lunch on a Sunday (around 2:00pm). Ordered Parmigiana di melanzane alla siciliana, (Eggplant Parmesan)and a anacini di riso (a rice ball coated breadcrumbs and deep fried. The parmigiana was nice but too salty to my taste. The arancini was delicious, crispy from the outside and filled with meat, cheese, tomatoes and rice. For dessert I had cannolino which is a small cannoli, filled with sweet ricotta cheese, and a cappuccino. The dessert are the reason this place is so popular. Such a beautiful variety of sweets. Service was okay, not as personal as one expect, perhaps because the place was very busy. Was difficult to find a table to seat.... I will certainly be back to explore more of these beautiful desserts.

Great variety of Arancini and pastries. Very good flavor both on salty and sweet food - Not the best, but still very good. A little on the expensive side but worth it (the arancini are huge). Nice seating area outside.

This place was close to our hotel and open late so we visited few times. Most of the staff doesn't speak English and it was struggle to place an order as you have to pay first then get your food. So I had to take a photo of the pastries so I can order. Cashier was rude and serious, no smile. Coffee was great. We tried several pastries including cannolino, savoia piccola and we didn't like them. Cornetto vuoto was ok but our favorite was arancino ragu.

Staff is friendly and the food is amazing. It doesn’t even stop! Highly recommended. The whole picture costs 11,80€. P.S: Try out the triangle thing in the pic!

Sicily. Ah. I love Sicily and I love Mizzica. The food is amazing. Desserts. Pomegranate juice, fresh, delicious. Granita. Cakes. Coffee. Name it. Popular with Romans.

An excellent, thin crust, take-away pizza!! We shared the red pizza and the Margherita. Fresh, quality ingredients, and crispy crust! And I loved that you could watch the pizzas being made as you ordered. My only complaint is that we had to eat the pizza at an Irish pub nearby because the pizza place was take-away only.

I had the mortadella focaccia and the bread tasted fresh. The flavors were extremely simple, with a focus on the freshness of the ingredients. I also had their ragu suppli and it was the highlight for me. Crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside!

One of my favourite panini spots in the city! Always the freshest, tastiest ingredients and the bread is always perfectly crisp and doused in high quality olive oil. Highly recommend the simple mortadella panino and any of the vegetarian options but especially the one with zucchini, tomatoes and grated provolone. Sweet, ripe tomatoes are such a treat when in Italy. Definitely get your panini to take away and sit on the edge of the nearby fountain in the piazza to enjoy them in the sun.

IlForno in Campo de’ Fiori has been a staple for us whenever we’re in Rome, and more often than not, we find ourselves visiting multiple times a day. It’s the ultimate spot for what we call “walkie-talkie pizza”—fresh, crispy, and absolutely delicious slices perfect for grabbing on the go while soaking in the energy of the piazza. Since 1970, this bakery has stayed true to its roots, never compromising on quality or tradition. Every bite reflects the care and skill of the bakers who craft their pizzas and breads daily, using the best ingredients—rigorously extra virgin olive oil, high-quality butter, and rich, flavorful toppings. There are no shortcuts here, just pure, honest flavors that have stood the test of time. Whether it’s the classic pizza bianca, the irresistible pizza rossa, or any of their other specialties, Il Forno never disappoints. The aroma alone is enough to draw you in, and once you’ve had a taste, you’ll likely be back for more (as we always are). A true Roman institution and an absolute must for anyone in the area!

Another top-tier Roman bakery. Their pizza al taglio (pizza by the slice) is excellent. A great way to end the Roman food experience.

A long established bakery in the heart of Rome. Excellent quality pizza sold by weight and delicious pastries

I came at 8.30am and no long queue. I got my focaccia and pizza al taglio… both are still warm and was soooooo good. The focaccia is the best, it’s crunchy but soft.

A nice spot for Tiramisu lovers in the city. As the name suggests, they offer 100 different types of tiramisu, from the classic to creative and unique flavors. We tried the traditional version along with one of their recommended options with pistachio both were absolutely delicious. The service was fairly quick, and overall it was a great experience. The only downside is that they don’t serve coffee, which would have made the experience perfect. Still, it’s a fantastic place to enjoy one of Italy’s most iconic desserts in many exciting variations.

Great wine, cold cuts and the idea of 100 tiramisu is great. Massive queue for the take away but very easy to get inside and eat in. We just tried the classic tiramisu which was extremely fresh and tasty. Will return to try more!

100 tiramisù flavors sounds like an attempt to the tiramisù but also like a fun experience so I went for the fun of it but kinda expecting a tourist trap. I must say the ones we ordered were really good and great portions. The staff was attentive and kind. They had tables reserved to the cheese and wine tastings but let us sit there so we wouldn’t wait too long. I would recommend this place.

This was one of my favorite dessert places to visit while in Rome. It was very fun to try some different flavors and variations of the traditional tiramisu. I found the dark chocolate/orange was a very good combination along with the dark chocolate/amarena/hazelnut combo. Saw that people were commenting that the tiramisu was sweet, so I went for combos that were not too high on the “sweetness scale”. There was usually a line but the queue went pretty quickly and I never had to wait too long. The staff were also very nice.

This was good. I got their new autumn special with the Biscoff. At first bite it was too sweet, but actually the flavors are well-balanced. In the outdoor seating area there was a girl smoking. Maybe it’s legal in Rome, but that kinda ruined the experience a little.

It is a nice place to get a little sweet for a cheap price. The service is good and fast, although you have to call the waiters all the time you need something (they are not deliberatery come to serve you). The tiramisu is ok, and it has many flavours that you can choose from.

Personally think this was overhyped. The queue was 15-20 mins long. I got a 46 and my wife got the 36. It was ok but nothing amazing. The wife really liked it. Depends on your preferences. If your short on time I would say you can give this a miss. It was 5 euros for one.

There’s a reason there’s so much hype around Roscioli. The bakery is superb. It feels like most people come for the pizza (it was delicious) but the breads and pastries all looked delicious too. One of the culinary highlights of our trip to Rome. If you walk past and there’s a queue, join it. You’ll be queuing for 5 mins at most and it’s inevitably much better than many other places in Rome

The sweet is better than savoury. Not sure why I haven’t seen many people talk about the sweet pastries. The fig tart was really good. The custard wasn't overly sweet and it paired well with the base. The base biscuit was very soft and crumbly, more like a soft cookie rather than a typical hard tart base. The ventaglio was also quite good, it was a pastry version of the butterfly cookie and not too sweet either. The chilli pizza slice was good, the olive oil on it was quite good, not too oily or heavy. But nothing super special. The ham sandwich with lettuce was eh. The lettuce on it tasted weird.

Honestly truly worth the hype and queue outside. Excellent pizza al taglio with a variety of toppings and pizza bianca made to order. The base is nicely crisp with a pillowy dough, all fresh produce and Roscioli-made ingredients. Pizza Burrata is essential and Pizza Bianca con Mortadella is also excellent (very high quality deli meats). Go before lunch rush (12 pm) to beat the queue, but it moves fairly quickly anyway. Service is understandably curt because of how busy it gets, just know what you want and order right away.

Definitely worth the stop!! This is the cutest, most authentic feeling little Italian bakery/deli/pizza spot. It's very small inside with a whole lot of people trying to place orders. Kind of chaotic. Outside there r a couple tables against the building with a few chairs. Definitely not a lot of seating, but it's possible. Pastries & fresh breads look delicious and barely out of the oven, but we didn't try those. Did get a few different salami sliced up for snacking later & those were wonderful. Also got some pizza slices, which they warmed & we ate outside. Like most other quick pizza spots, they cut a portion off the large pizza and then after warming it slice it into smaller pieces. This places cuts very large pieces so if ur not super hungry or want to try a few types, might want to ask for a smaller portion. This shop was also more expensive than others, but we really enjoyed the atmosphere and flavor of it. Also, Roscioli has a coffee shop down the street so make sure you go to the correct location.

As every time I’m in Rome, I headed to Roscioli for lunch to grab some pizzas. The place has no seating area inside but there’s a nearby park where I always sit to enjoy my food, so that’s not an issue. Roscioli offers both sweets and savoury dishes, and their highlight is pizza, which comes in different shapes and flavours. Prices are ok, not cheap but not overly pricey. With 16 euros I was insanely stuffed. Staff were really friendly and helpful, food quality outstanding. Overall a great find, totally recommend.

We lined up here for a quick morning bite in Rome. It's worth the try for a grab-and-go. Pros: > Has a variety of classic Italian breads from savory to sweet > We tried a few pizzas, which were really good > Even with a line, service moves at a decent pace—ordering and getting your food doesn’t take too long. Cons: > There is not enough seating so can be a hassle to eat while standing outside. > It can get very busy and crowded.

i loved it! the zucchini and stracciatella pizza flavor is soooo good, and the pilsner beer of the house is also amazing! great merch as well, my favorite souvenir from rome was a tote bag from this place

This pasticceria is highly recommended. One of Rome’s hidden gems when it comes to pastries and cakes. They have different varieties of “treats” to offer. So good and it melts in your month. The taste of most of the pastries we tasted are well balanced and almost done to perfection. I can eat their pastries even everyday. Cannoli is one of my favorites. They also serve coffee. The place is not in central Rome, but worth to find time to visit. Vai!

Every time I go to Rome I have breakfast at Valentini’s. Wonderful cream croissants and delicious coffee.

Excellent for a breakfast with cappuccino and croissant, this venue also offers canapés, pastries, and cakes, all freshly made and of very good quality, in my experience. I especially enjoyed the mignon pastries on a few occasions, accompanied with espresso coffee (the latter is good, if a tad ordinary). The shop is conveniently open through August. The interior is clean and light, almost minimalistic in a rather pleasant and unassuming way. The service is generally cheerful and efficient.

With every visit, I love this place more 😍 I come for breakfast

Poor quality, it got worse with time. It used to be one of the best pastry shop in town

Excellent cappuccino and croissants at a very reasonable price.

Lovely café to have good breakfast and sandwiches

We found this bakery by accident, we wish we could have found it earlier as it was amazing. There is a queue usually but it goes by fast as the service is very good and helpful. All the pastries we tried were very very tasty, that’s why we visited the place twice. The cappuccino and espresso are also very good. The area inside is small but you might be able to find a table to sit as customers rotate quickly.

Such a great find for all of your staples to a Perfect lunch, breakfast, or snack in Rome. It’s off the beaten track, but still a bit crowded and difficult to manage getting a seat. The ingredients all tasted fresh and were incredibly satisfying. The staff was also very friendly. I’ll be back of course.

great cappuccinos and desserts - I got a mini cheesecake that was truly delicious!! that being said, the man who served us clearly didn’t like tourists and was not patient, becoming irritated when we ordered for some reason (we tried to be as polite as possible so we didn’t get any savoury items, fearing we might upset him further). Otherwise there is limited seating and the decor is lovely - prices were reasonable, so I’d recommend if you want something quick and sweet :)

Followed people in suits stopping here for lunch. Feels local, employees dont speak much English. Delicious thin pizza and the tomatoes on the veggie slices were delicious! 2 euros for my slices and bottle of water! They did not mind me sitting here for an hour, eating while charging my phone. They have a toilette as well!

Really small tables even one tray barely fits, uncomfortable seats. All this made for This is done so that people don't stay too long. They just eat and leave. I ordered two different pizzas and different beverages. Pizzas look tasty, but unfortunately it was preliminary. Also they added wrong extra beverage to our order. I will never come back

Had the absolute best pistachio cornetto and fresh orange juice here — everything is delicious! It’s definitely busy, so expect a wait for a table, but it’s worth it. If you’re lucky, you might snag a little chair outside, which is perfect for enjoying your food while soaking in the atmosphere and people-watching. Highly recommend!

A great spot to grab some baking and coffee. We had cappuccinos along with crossiants. The cappuccinos tasted great, which I find can be hit or miss olay other locations. The chocolate and pistachio crossiants were delicious and fresh with good flakiness. Highly recommend this location.

Stepping into Merisù in Trastevere is an absolute treat for anyone who loves tiramisu. It's a small, cozy shop that feels like a little hidden gem. The concept is brilliant and so unique: they make the tiramisu fresh for you on the spot! You get to watch them layer the ingredients right in front of you, which is a fantastic part of the experience. However, while the idea is great, we found the tiramisu itself wasn't quite the best we've had. The coffee in particular was very strong, giving the overall dessert a bit of a bitter edge that, for our taste, overpowered the sweetness of the cream. While the traditional flavor is their classic, they also offer a variety of other creative options like pistachio and Nutella, which might be a better choice if you're looking for something less coffee-forward. Because of its popularity and small size, there can be a queue, but it moves quickly. You'll likely enjoy your tiramisu standing or on a nearby bench. It's a popular spot and definitely worth trying for the experience, but if you prefer a milder coffee flavor in your tiramisu, you might find it a bit too intense.

9.5/10 don’t be turned off by the marketing or hype. They make it clear it’s not traditional tiramisu so if you come looking for that you will not be happy. If you want some experimentation on a classic concept, you will be delighted. Made fresh, bright, clear flavors, much less sweet and generic than most of what you get. We had the pistachio flavor and loved it. Definitely recommend, although you should also go somewhere known for the quality of a classic, traditional version.

After dinner, we randomly discovered Tiramisù Merisù in Trastevere — and what a find! Even though it was already 21:38 and there was still a line, we decided to wait, and it was absolutely worth it. They offer a wide variety of tiramisu flavors alongside the traditional one, and each looks irresistible. The taste is simply amazing — rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced. Definitely a must-try spot in Rome for any tiramisu lover!

This is the type of place you go day 1 of your trip and then come back days 2 and 3 because it was just that good! I tried the Nutella&oreo one and the classic. Both were delicious. The 3rd time I went there was a long queue, but it was worth the wait. The staff were very nice. If I'm ever in Rome again I will definitely be back.

we very randomly came across this shop that makes tiramisu made to order. there are very different kinds and the one we had was delicious! i definitely recommend. the portions are big so i think it’s best to share

I ordered the berry tiramisu and original. Love them so much. It has creamy notes and enough sweet of the cream. The finger lady is still crispy. It is really really good

Were here on a monday evening, had to stand in the line 30min but it was definitely worth the wait! There was only one young woman working there but she was so fast and made all the Tiramisù fresh from scratch. Very impressive how she managed to stay calm and focused.

Service and atmosphere were fantastic, the people working there were professional and lovely. Unfortunately the coffee and pastries we got were a bit far from some of the best ones that we found in the city. Price was good too!

Nice place to have your morning coffee , with kindest staff ever

A quaint and lovely place for breakfast. A wide variety of pastries. I love their croissants - went back for more on the next day. Great coffee too. A place frequented by locals - it has to be good. Highly recommended.

(Translated by Google) Finally a bar that serves milk in a separate jug if you ask for a latte. It is located on the street of the old Casal Bertone market in the center of the neighborhood. Clean environment and guys who are quick to serve and friendly and always welcome you with a smile. Their pastry shop is also very assorted with Neapolitan desserts. Their coffee is, in my opinion, the best (and cheapest) in Casal Bertone. (Original) Finalmente un bar che ti serve il latte in un bricco a parte se chiedi il caffè macchiato. Si trova sulla strada del vecchio mercato di Casal Bertone al centro del quartiere. Ambiente pulito e ragazzi veloci nel servire e cordiali e ti accolgono sempre con il sorriso. La loro pasticceria è molto assortita anche con dolci napoletani. Il loro caffè è, secondo me, il migliore ( ed il più economico) di Casal Bertone.

(Translated by Google) La Sfogliatella, in its structural simplicity, is one of the best coffee shops where I have always been served coffee with a jug of cold milk on the side! Apart from this trivia or nonsense for me VITA, the real difference is made by a team of young people, always smiling, friendly and polite, who can really make the difference. The restaurant, near the historic market of Casalbertone, where you can buy products from local farmers in the morning, offers in addition to Neapolitan puffs, fans or French fries cream, apricot jam, black cherry, wild berries and then delicious taralli and many other specialties Bells, and not only that, even savory ones, in fact on Thursdays the buffalo mozzarella and ricotta arrive, but it's better if you book. The guys make really delicious sandwiches which they also serve with alcoholic aperitifs, the spritz is spectacular, and they deliver to take away. And then friendlydog, yes, a guaranteed kibble for every 4-legged friend, dogs are welcome. You absolutely must come and meet them!

Il locale,vicino al mercato storico di Casalbertone,dove poter acquistare in mattinata prodotti dai contadini locali,offre oltre le sfogliatelle napoletane, i ventagli o francesine crema,marmellata albicocca,amarena,frutti di bosco e poi i taralli che delizia e tante altre specialità Campane ,e non solo,anche salate infatti il giovedì arriva la mozzarella di bufala e la ricottina,meglio se prenotate però. I ragazzi fanno dei tramezzini davvero buonissimi che servono anche con gli aperitivi alcolici,lo spritz è spettacolare,e consegnano in asporto. E poi friendlydog,sìsì,un croccantino assicurato per ogni amico a 4 zampe,i cani sono i benvenuti. Dovete venire assolutamente a conoscerli!

(Translated by Google) A great cafe for breakfast! The service is very friendly and happy to introduce the products. The croissants were very tasty. You should definitely try the croissant with hazelnut cream. The prices are also unbeatable. Attractively priced! There are also vegan alternatives! (Original) Ein tolles Café zum Frühstücken! Die Bedienung ist sehr freundlich und stellt gerne die Produkte vor. Die Croissants waren sehr lecker. Man sollte unbedingt Croissant mit Haselnuss-Creme probieren. Die Preise sind auch unschlagbar. Sehr günstig! Es gibt auch vegane Alternativen!

If you want to taste real Neapolitan coffee, accompanied by an excellent pastry product, you can't miss going there! (Original) Caffetteria eccellente! Ambiente giovanile ed accogliente.

Pretty tasty specialty - the Sorchetta con Cioccolato. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area. All of their treats looked quite good.

I took a electric scooter at 3am so I can experience this late night pastry. Ohhh was I disappointed. Let’s just say I took a bite of the creamed cornetto and the chocolate cake, it all went straight to the trash. It’s so bad that this experience is good!

Not sure why this place is that special. Difficult to order since you can't see all the items that are available.

Sorchetta is the jewel of this wonderful place, out on a Saturday night in Rome no worries lambaise is open until 630am

I love master chief. Quality and best taste. I have never ate something like this amazing! Go try!!!!

We had the chance of meeting the owner of this place! A sweet true Italian man, full of life and joy, like his pastries! Definitely one of the best pastries in Rome! Che meraviglia!! 🥐🍩🍪

My Wife And I want to this place during our journey in Roma and We enjoy the flavor of each dessert! The owner is very friendly and he is so humble!

Truffle shop ✨️has oils , sauces and creams if you love Truffle ❤️ like me you will really enjoy this one👌🏻😍❤️✨️

You can try to taste it. There are many kinds. I bought a truffle spread and it's delicious

It's better to re-educate the clerk's attitude. She was talking amiably to Western customers, but as an Asian, I didn't say a word of greeting. In addition, the clerk glared at me. So I went home without buying anything. It's the worst store that such a store exists.

I stopped by at 11:30 a.m. on Sept. 23 and the staff member was so unkind.... I know truffle samples eat available, but when I asked if I could eat them?she said, "you should to buy them and eat them." Then I felt very bad about using my phone with my earphones on by myself. Why do you hire such a staff member? I didn't feel great

Good place to shop truffle products in roma. Recommend white truffle sauce and truffle salt. But if you have a plan to visit firenze, firenze coward or S&L is better.

Fake truffle, they let you taste real truffle in the store, when you buy a jar of truffle paste yourself it tastes totally different. It has a really chemical taste, on the ingredients list you can see that only 1-2% is truffle the rest is truffle aroma which is all fake flavouring

Great truffle products!

Great pastry shop with delicious desserts and fragrant coffee! The staff is nice and the environment is very pleasant. An ideal place to relax with a cake and a cup of espresso. I will definitely come back here. 🌸

Sweet memories

(Translated by Google) Go there, you'll like it! I went there, I liked it. We arrived late, our breakfast started at past 11am. There were no more pastries so we diverted to single-portion pastries. We paid 12 euros for 10 pieces, 16 euros with cap and juice. Normal prices, very good desserts, but we tried a single portion cheesecake with berries and a pistachio foam. The ones pictured are bright red and green. They are something EXAGERATION!!! TRY THEM. Bathroom without toilet paper and not very clean, tables cleared but not cleaned. Those were the only negatives. I would definitely go back, especially for the kindness and friendliness of a sales assistant with the same obsessive compulsive worries as us! He divided the plate with one person's and the other's orders. Stupendous! (Original) Vacci, ti piacerà! Ci sono andato, mi è piaciuto. Siamo arrivati tardi, la nostra colazione è iniziata alle 11 passate. Non c'erano più paste quindi abbiamo dirottato sulla pasticceria in mono porzioni. 10 pezzi abbiamo pagato 12 euro, con cappuccio e succo 16. Prezzi nella norma, dolci molto buoni, ma abbiamo provato una cheesecake in mono porzione ai frutti di bosco e una spuma di pistacchio. Quelli nella foto rossa e verde brillanti. Sono qualcosa di ESAGERATO!!! PROVATELI. Bagno senza carta igienica e non molto pulito, tavoli sgomberati ma non puliti. Sono state le uniche pecche negative. Ci tornerei sicuramente, soprattutto per la gentilezza e la simpatia di una commessa con i nostri stessi patemi ossessivi compulsivi! Ci ha diviso il piatto con le ordinazioni di una e dell'altra persona. Stupenda!

(Translated by Google) A good place to indulge in dessert and coffee. They also offer snacks, croissants, cookies, cakes, and fruit pies. The service is good, and the prices are reasonable for the quality of the desserts. There are small portions to enjoy with a coffee or water, and they also offer gelato in various flavors. The location is convenient since there aren't many of these options nearby. There are combos for breakfast and sandwiches and salads for lunch or dinner. (Original) Un buen sitio para antojarse de un postre y un café, también hay colaciones, croisant, galletas, pasteles y pie de frutas. La atención es buena, los precios son adecuados a la calidad de los postres. Hay porciones pequeñas para degustar de varios con un café o con agua, también hay gelato de varios sabores. La ubicación es adecuada ya que en cercanías no hay muchas opciones de estas, hay combos para desayunar y sanduches y ensaladas para la comida o cena.

(Translated by Google) The quality of the croissants above all. The pastry shop is excellent (the name is a guarantee) as is the service. (Original) La qualità dei cornetti su tutto. La pasticceria è ottima (il nome è una garanzia) così come il servizio.

(Translated by Google) I go there often, always full but the service is fast, the croissants are excellent and the pastry shop and delicatessen are always a sight to behold. Landmark of Ostiense. (Original) Ci vado spesso, sempre pieno ma comunque il servizio è veloce i cornetti ottimi e la pasticceria e la gastronomia sono sempre un belvedere. Punto di riferimento dell'Ostiense.

(Translated by Google) Good bar with good sweet and savoury products (Original) Buon bar con prodotti buoni sia dolci che salati

We wanted in a queue to be seated for around 20 minutes and the food was well worth the wait. We ate their bread, caccio e pepe and pesto. All were fantastic and the caccio e pepe was the best that I have had in Rome. Waiting staff were very polite and helpful. If you are a larger person, you may find it hard navigating the tables and sitting comfortably due to the restaurant and outside seating being quite close together. But the mild inconvenience is worth going through for their delicious meal.

The homemade pasta is outstanding — fresh, flavorful, and full of authentic Italian taste. You might have to wait a little during peak hours, but trust me, it’s worth every single penny and every minute. The cozy atmosphere and friendly service make the whole experience even better. A must-visit spot if you want to taste real Roman cuisine!

This is one of the sort after restaurant in rome totally living up to the expectations. You would understand that when tourists wait outside and not the waiter tp invite you inside the restaurant, then you are in the right place for having your food in Rome. This was one such place. I waited briefly to get a seat. The service was super fast and the staff were super friendly. I tried the famous cacio e pepe, with limoncello for my lunch. The pasta is one of the best i have ever tasted so far. I followed it up with s tiramisu which was perfect. So i would highly recommend this restaurant when you sre visiting Rome. Happy eating 🤤

The fresh made pasta is cut and rolled by these sweet ladies in the window. The food is fantastic so be ready to wait in line (we waited about 30 minutes) but definitely well worth the wait. You can call them at 11 am to make reservations, definitely will do that next time. Great location in front of the Pantheon and just great food. Definitely come here when visiting Rome.

BOOMBA...This place was a hit! Right around the corner from the apartment. We arrived just as lunch began and waited maybe 2min. I ordered and devoward the Gnocchi Sorrento Style which was great!! Pasta lady making fresh pasta at the window and you can definitely taste it. My plate took longer than usual as it is baked. Mozzarella with crispy edging around the dish, soooo good. My wife had the fettuccine All'Amatricana which was also great. Over all definitely will be coming back.

The food was absolutely amazing, the carbonara ribs were perfect, exactly how they should be! Perfect balance, perfect texture, perfect flavor, absolutely spot on. I was served by Daniele, who was very kind and attentive. Always there right when I needed something. His friendly attitude made the whole experience even better. Big thumbs up for both the food and the service💫

One of the best carbonaras I’ve ever had! Perfectly creamy, rich, and full of flavor. The atmosphere at Osteria della Fortuna is cozy and authentic, with friendly staff who make you feel right at home. A must-visit in Rome for anyone who loves true Roman food!

Well well what can i say, this is one of the best place i will visit again for sure once I’m in Rome 😊 Perfect place to cool off yourself A huge number of flavours for ice creams and lattes People will be in queue to get their ice creams but the staffs are friendly and welcoming and they’ll manage the crowd easily 😊👍 Make sure to give a visit if you’re near the area😊❤️

Frigidarium does not disappoint. This is likely one of the best gelatos I have ever had in the entire world. Their flavor choices are also interesting, the servers were kind and enthusiastic. Will definitely come back and I highly recommend this gelato shop in Rome.

The mango gelato taste just like fresh mango! The lemon gelato is too sour. The chocolate fudge is so thick and rich. The line was long when i was there. Service is good. They gave you sample to try before we decided. It is a cute 'come and go' ice cream shop, no chair and table.

After getting ripped off at an ice cream place next to the trevi fountain a few days before I was pleased to find this place. Great selection of flavours and the option to have solid chocolate covering the ice cream itself was nice. Great tasting gelato and the price was not bad either. I really recommend this place.

Great gelato and wonderful staff. I think we paid about €11 euro for two cones with 3 scoops. The Frigidarium flavor is a must try.

One of te best Gelato in Rome. You must wait for about 10 minutes but it is worthy to wait. Amazing taste and correct prices.

Excellent Gelato in Rome! Frigidarium was a fantastic find. It easily ranks as the 3rd best gelato we tried during our trip to Rome. You absolutely must try their signature flavor, the "Frogidarium"—it's truly excellent! A perfect treat.

Had a wonderful breakfast on a Saturday summer morning while visiting Rome, at this cafe as recommended by our local guide. It is located in a neat side street with outdoor seating. There was a little bit of a wait but the food service was fast. We had assorted croissants and pastries along with capuchins, latte, and chocolate. Enjoyable little meal.

For tourists, remember you need to order at the counter then collect from the other if you're seated outside. They don't come to you. We ordered one Gran Cafe and one Monachella al banco (standing) and they were both delicious, exceptionally good coffee is served here and it looks like there is a rich history of coffee at this shop. The order was less that €3.50 per coffee and when we gave the receipt to the those making the coffee it arrived very quickly. Would highly recommend but as a tourist please familiarise yourself with what to do; 1) Order from the counter on the right 2) Procide receipt to individuals preparing coffee on the left 3) Bring to your own table if seated It's quite simple once you are aware, I have seen bad reviews because people didn't come knowing how to order or what to do. Please read how to have your coffee rather than being frustrated about having expectations it'll be the same to order as your home country.

We stopped by Sant’Eustachio Caffè during our evening city tour — one of Rome’s most well-known and historic cafés. I ordered what seemed to be their signature espresso, which came with a noticeably sweet taste, likely due to the sugar already mixed in before serving. The flavor was distinct — smooth, rich, and slightly sweet, offering a different take on the traditional Italian espresso experience. It wasn’t exactly what I expected, but it was still enjoyable and worth trying, especially for those curious about Rome’s classic coffee culture. Overall, Sant’Eustachio Caffè provided a quick yet memorable stop during the night tour — a small cup of history and tradition in the heart of Rome.

A classic Roman caffe with adaptations for us foreigners. They are very happy to guide you through the many choices you have from a simple caffe espresso that you drink at the bar to a shakerato, espresso with ice, shaken until cold and frothy. A lovely treat on a hot day. Expect your caffe con zucchero (with sugar), unless you ask for it otherwise. As with any new country, ask how they do things, or watch and learn. Here they order at the counter and then you give your receipt to the baristas who will make it for you. Then you can drink it there or take it outside, to a table or if you ordered togo - keep a walking! They have nice snacks and treats as well, with patio seating and menus in English and Italian.

First day in Rome. We were looking to explore the coffee houses of Rome. This place is very close to Piazza Navona, where we were staying. You can order directly at the counter and drink your coffee there. Or you can sit at the table and somebody will come to take your order. We decided to sit down. We ordered cappuccino, croissants (regular, chocolate, and pistachio). Everything was delicious.

The greatest disappointment of the area!!This is not longer an Italian coffe, as italian, and I also worked at coffe machine in bars, I says that sturbacks is much better. The cappiccino foamis like the bubbles of the shampoo and n9t creamy, is not compacted and not gradually melted with the milk as It should be, the coffe Is nothing special, I asked a short coffe(espresso) but the staff not understood because they are none of them Italian, instead they made me a long coffe, the service Is crab, when I told them that we were not Happy with the coffe and cappuccino they had made, expecially for the price we spent, they didn't care it at all. The sugar Is the economic chimical white industrial sugar, served in tables in plastic cans like ketchup and maionese at the econimic fast-food place, while in any other italian bar you are served at least with 3 differnt sugar types. The tables were not stable and not cofortable. As Italian expert of coffe I suggest you to go to the others coffe bar near pantheon. The cappuccino 6,2 euros

Located between the vibrant Piazza Navona and the majestic Pantheon, this charming coffee shop offers a perfect spot to relax amidst Rome's historic splendor. The coffee was truly exceptional. We savored a delightful cappuccino and a robust double espresso, each brewed to perfection.☕️✨☕️✨

great, true & simple (in a good sense!) pizza & pasta. bizarre atmosphere (but what do you expect in Italy? 😁) plus very nice kombucha. so, highly recommend

Very salty food but an amazing location and convenient! Depending on where you eat, be aware that some of the pastas are way too salty. Every bite I ate of the carbonara, I was just eating salt. The pizza on the other hand was good. Was very flavourful but once again, very salty. Not sure if it’s an Italian thing but I’ve been to Italy before and it wasn’t this salty.

Saw a TikTok video about this market food hall and how this is great place where locals come when at the Termini Train Station. I had a had time finding it in the station but could be because of all the construction. Anyways we got two slices of Roman pizza to share and it was delicious. Would definitely come back and would try other food options

Pretty solid selection overall: pizza, pasta, vegan, Asian, meat lover options, bakery, wine, and desserts. I ended up choosing the truffle store, which serves pasta and also sells products you can take home(truffle oil etc). There were way more truffles than I expected! The staff in the market also go around to take drink orders.

If you ever come to Roma and you end up close to the market you HAVE to come there !!! Sooo many choices to choose from, quick service and overall good food. Bonus points : when you sit down, waitresses will come to you to ask if you would like to drink anything and will then bring your drinks to your table directly ! The place is pretty big and there are a lot of tables available so it was really easy to sit down quickly. The meat was so good, it was our last night so we decided to splurge a little. I also really like the trapizzino - a Roman specialty !

Gd quality High-end foodcourt. Their T-bone is sooo Good. Gd selection of wine… Clean environment with plenty decent comfy seats. Clean toilet. Use your receipt to scan into the washroom.

Just down from the main station, this food market - more like an upmarket food court, really - has amazing local specialties. Sandwiches, arancini, supplí, pizza, pasta and wonderful cakes. Don’t miss it.

We stayed for about 7 days in Rome and really struggled in finding a good and nice place to eat without any hidden fees or any waiter trying to get you more bread to charge, but Al Forno della Soffitta was extremely great. The waiters were very friendly and accomodating with foreigners, they loved helping you pair your food with wine and the service overall was great. We only had pasta and pizza from this place because they were that good, but I saw they have some nice lunch menus that are available if you request them. We ate here 3 times and would have gone there more if we found it sooner.

We went here for dinner and the food was absolutely amazing. Everything had lots of flavor. We ordered the mussels to start then we shared a pizza and finished off with a pasta. The service was awesome and there is absolutely no pressure or the feeling of being rushed. We sat outside and the atmosphere was great. Would definitely recommend and the prices are reasonable.

Food was okay. Thin sliced ham was very good. Tried calzoni weren't great, fairly dry. Cacio e pepe was okay. Baked gnocchi was decent. Service was mixed. Host was friendly and quick. We had a male and female server. The male was nice, the female was rude, and we noticed she was extremely rude to the Indian couple who were seated beside us. They spoke English just like us but she treated them quite poorly. Upon leaving the restaurant that is what we talked about, not about the meal itself. We were also never offered another bottle of water or a refill on wine. Atmosphere was good, with the pizza oven being the focal point. Bathrooms were clean.

Superb!! Excellent service. This is the best restaurant we’ve had in Rome! They are not only good with one thing. From the minute you get into the door, entrees, pizza and pasta…and the wine they recommend, everything is so delicate and delicious!

Some of the best pizza I have eaten. Made fresh with their brick oven in front of the restaurant. So many options to choose from. Also had the seafood pasta, which was incredible. Such an amazing casual place.

Authentic Italian in every way. The pizza is fresh and hand made. We wanted to find authentic Italian Carbonara, and it did not disappoint. The appetizer, first and second course and even the tiramisu are highly recommended. Do not pass by without stopping. We will be back next time we are in Rome

I’m not sure how this restaurant got 4.6 reviews here in google. The reviews all showed it’s a fantastic place to have authentic Italian food. This place is full of all tourists with speaking English. I haven’t seen a single Italian while I was sitting there 1.5 hours. I was excited to try authentic Italian food as a tourist so did some research for the reviews. Food is just average. I ordered seafood pasta. Lobster is not tasted fresh at all. In terms of service, I was sitting there to take my time to finish my glass wine. The waiter just passed a bill for me to finish it off. As a tourist coming to visit a place, it’s not a nice feeling at all. Of cuz I asked any limited time for dinning, he said no I can take my time to finish. To be honest, I do not have to ask for it. Or if any limited time for dinning should always let customers know before they are asks to be seated.

The BEST gelato we had in Rome. Not only are their creamy offerings delectable, their fruit flavors are also can't misses! I particularly enjoyed the watermelon flavor and the cantaloupe! MUST TRY if you are in Rome.

What a wonderful find! Come il Latte serves gelato that is clearly a step above the rest. It's rich, creamy, and flavorful without being overwhelmingly complex. The staff truly made our visit special; they were so helpful and seemed to genuinely enjoy helping customers create the perfect order with their expert pairing suggestions. The pistachio gelato was a revelation, dark chocolate is perfectly balanced, and the option to add fresh whipped cream and melted chocolate from a fountain just seals the deal. An amazing experience at a very fair price. Highly, highly recommended!

Love it! I was impressed by how beautifully everything was presented. The staff greeted me warmly and were happy to explain the different flavours, even offering small samples so I could choose what I liked best. I ended up going with pistachio and stracciatella — both were out of this world. The pistachio was rich and nutty without being too sweet, and you could tell it was made from real ingredients, not artificial flavours. The stracciatella had the perfect balance of creamy vanilla gelato and crisp chocolate shavings. Everything was smooth, dense, and bursting with flavour — exactly what real Italian gelato should be. I also loved the atmosphere — cozy, clean, and inviting. You can tell the owners really care about quality and creating a great customer experience. Prices are very fair for the quality, and the portions are generous. This place is now my go-to spot whenever I’m craving something sweet. If you’re a fan of authentic Italian gelato, do yourself a favour and check this place out. You won’t be disappointed!

Lowkey authentic gelato shop. This was the second authentic gelato shop I tried in Rome and it did not disappoint. It was not busy at all, and I had no wait. I tried the gelato in a waffle cone, as well as a desert that consisted of 2 Biscoff cookies with a gelato flavor in the middle, then dipped in chocolate. Salted caramel and peanut and crunchy chocolate gelato ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Biscoff gelato sandwich ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Similar to La Romana gelato shop, this shop also puts chocolate sauce in your cone, and then the ice cream on top and whipped cream. It had a delicious flavor. Unfortunately I was unable to snap a picture before my ice cream hit the ground due to the heat. If you plan on not eating it fast enough like me, I recommend not getting it in a cone, but rather in a bowl.

During our trip to Italy, we tried many different gelaterias, but this one in Rome was by far the best. The gelato was incredibly creamy, rich in flavor, and made with such freshness that every scoop stood out. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere was relaxed, making it the perfect stop during our time in the city. Truly unforgettable gelato—an absolute must when in Rome!

Worth going out of your way for! This was the best gelato we had during a week in Rome. Soft, smooth and creamy consistency, rich natural flavours, perfect temperature. Pistachio and Salted Caramel both a must. If it was any closer to the centre we would have gone every day.

Hidden nook however is a must visit. Visually very appealing and wonderful customer service. Best gelato in Rome! Must visit! I had the pistachio and biscotti flavors, with white chocolate at the bottom of a wafer cone with fresh cream on top -5.50 euros! 🤩

So good I had it literally three times during my trip! Phenomenal, is it even the word when you talk about the classic sandwich that reminds you of a Chicago style Italian beef sandwich. We honestly couldn’t stop eating these. A true hidden gem, worth the visit! Go check out Box 15.

Nice and popular sandwich place in Testaccio market. Even though the concept is great (slow cooked local meat recipes in sandwich buns) and it is recommended in several Rome guides and YouTube videos, it was not one of the most memorable street food experiences for us. Not bad but not great either. Value for money and a good option while at the market but not something to get you out of your way just for a visit.

A decent sandwich nonetheless, but to be honest the it was just some pre-prepared filling between two slices of bread and not in keeping with the description. Felt overhyped.

Very good sandwiches. Quick nice service. They will cut the sandwich in half if you want to split it with another person.

It was the first spot on our check list to try Roman street food and it did not disappoint. One of the best sandwiches (panini) I've ever had. Very juicy and full of flavours. Especially recommend their number 1 seller Allesso di Scottona.

The legendary status of this sandwich stand are true and well deserved! This was one of the street foods I was most looking forward to trying and they did not disappoint! As I only have limited space in my stomach, I ordered their classic Allesso di Scottona beef and chicory sandwich and it was truly delicious. The beef was soft and succulent and while balanced with the sauteed chicory and the bun that was pre-soaked in some of the juices was soft and rich but not soggy. Clearly there is a master at work making these delicious Roman sandwiches! For sure I will be back to try some more next time I am in Rome!

As a visitor into this wonderful marketplace, it is overwhelming to know where to shop, who to trust and what foods will be so good you’ll want to return!! Fortunately we were able to go with locals and discovered this spot for the best slow cooked meats and sandwiches… worth the wait and very good prices. You will be glad you stopped. The pride comes thru with every bite!! The pictures don’t do justice, I wish the flora and aromas could come thru as well!!
