Roscioli Salumeria con Cucina

November 3, 2025

It was hands down the best of the best from this entire trip. If you’re in Rome, this place is an absolute must-go! The Parma ham I had here was honestly the best thing I ate during my whole vacation — truly unforgettable. The wine list and every single dish were just amazing, absolutely mind-blowing. The place is always busy and full of energy, and the servers are constantly on the move, but that’s part of its charm. I’ll definitely be coming back multiple times next time I’m in Rome. The food here is something I’ll never forget! It just became my and hubby’s fav restaurant in the world💛

The food was amazing and the menu had so much variety. The charcuterie selection was super rich, and the new-season olive oil was incredible. Paola recommended the olive oil to us, and it was so good that we ended up buying a bottle after our meal. But honestly, the best part of the whole experience was Paola herself. Her energy, communication, and positivity were the true highlight of our dinner. Her historical explanation about the pork cheek made the dish even more meaningful. We’re really happy we got to meet her. A restaurant we absolutely recommend and one we’ll definitely come back to.

I first came here over ten years ago and recall the food and service being good, so I decided to take my wife here for lunch during our recent visit to Rome. Unfortunately, the restaurant has changed quite a bit, and not for the better. We arrived a little early and were told by a lady with a clipboard that we needed to wait outside until our reservation before being seated. What followed was a roll call of sorts where we were treated as though we were being granted entry to some sort of exclusive nightclub. The restaurant itself is nicely decorated and the walls are adorned with all sorts of wines and spirits. It’s a little cramped inside, but that’s part of the charm, I suppose. Unfortunately, the food itself didn’t live up to the slightly pretentious air of the place. While it was decent enough, it certainly wasn’t worth the price, as we spent over 40 euros a head for a couple of small starters and two bowls of pasta. My tagliatelle ragu was dressed with an excessive amount of pecorino romano which overpowered the flavour of the sauce. The restaurant could save money on ingredients and improve the taste of the pasta by using it more sparingly in future. The tiramisu was also fine, but nothing special. Overall, this place simply isn’t worth the money. In the evening, we went to Kung Fu Express for dinner and the food was half the price and twice as good.

My partner and I enjoyed a truly delicious meal featuring Cacio e Pepe - a simple yet exquisite pasta dish with the perfect harmony of cheese and pepper. Alongside it, we were served a selection of fresh breads that complemented the flavours. The restaurant’s location adds a distinctive charm to the overall experience, and it’s clearly a favourite among diners. I’d recommend booking well in advance. Despite the busy atmosphere, our waiter was exceptionally friendly and attentive. Service was prompt, yet never rushed, which made the evening feel relaxed and well-paced. To finish, I had ice cream while my partner opted for a meringue cake. We were also treated to a few biscuits with rich chocolate sauce for dipping. It was a delightful and indulgent end to a memorable meal.

If you can get a reservation then go for it! Everything is good here, it's just a matter of not being overwhelmed and ordering what you fancy. Portions are also suitable for sharing. I ordered meatballs which were perfect, soft, sharp cheese and fresh tomato sugo with a small slab of polenta to clean up the sauce. And the best grilled pepper and anchovy I've had - fresh, amazing olive oil and briny umami-bursting anchovy. Very very good, and if your schedule allows you'll want to come back to try more from the menu. Highly recommended.
