4.3 / 5.0(5,682 reviews)
We were looking for a place where we could have authentic Italian pizza. We found it and were not disappointed. Their thin and spicy sauce was delicious. Besides pizza they also offer pasta in different styles. We tried one with pesto and another with tomato sauce. The Caesar’s salad was perfect. And for dessert we tried the tiramisu. The service was fast. The waiters were courteous and excellent service attitude. The prices are reasonable despite the fact they are just half a block from the Pantheon. Highly recommended. A cool little place with nice seating and pretty good food. The ravioli with spinach in tomato sauce is a winner and was done so well. Had the grilled octopus with mashed potato but they cab it something pie. They charge per head EUR1.5 for water, bread , so no need to order any still or sparkling , just ask for tap. We loved the food here and came back for a separate evening. Diavola pizza was amazing, the meatballs are to die for, ravioli and cacio e pepe highly recommended, and the blonde woman at the front was really polite and helpful, even giving us a bigger table for our multiple plates!

We tried the seminario and spaghetti alle vongole to share between the two of us. These food are superb!. Sauce was creamy and the octopus was so tender.

Unfortunately I couldn’t take any picture of the food, but it was so good! They quickly accommodated us no problem, we are 8. We ordered diavola pizza, margarita pizza, polpette Della nonna and I added pasta, maccheroni alla carbonara, pesto pasta, polpo arrosto, and bistecca di manzo, for dessert tiramisu and fruit salad. For being a very touristic place next to el Pantheon, the food is really really good! 💯 recommended
