An amazing experience. Family owned restaurant doing things differently, would absolutely go back when next in Rome. Off the beaten path, which makes this a gem to discover. Not trying to cater to the masses, but doing things amazingly. Be prepared to queue for a short time in busy periods as is normal for a great spot like this. Try all the dishes.

To było coś absolutnie wyjątkowego. Malutki lokal, kilka krzeseł na krzyż, menadżer sali który doskonale zna menu i kilka języków. Pyszne makarony

I like to break up these reviews in 2 parts. One is overall, and then the next my experience. Overall, the food is delicious. I was stuffed and when my food came out it was fresh. You could taste how fresh it was. My children even liked their spaghetti, which surprised me because they are very picky eaters. The wait was also not too bad and there were 5 of us in total (2 adults, 3 children all 5 and under). I was a taken back a little to find that table service is not done here, but the place is small enough that it isn't needed anyways. The decor is very well thought out, and staff is very welcoming. You'll find the host is fluent in many languages, and explains how their process without the table service works. Now the second part, because the place is so small, there is no restroom. You have to walk down the street and find a place to pay and use the toilets. I could see this being an issue for someone with small children who need access to a restroom, or in my husbands case, just someone who has to use the restroom. It's inconvenient, but also common in Rome so I would just recommend using the restroom being coming here. The reason I personally recommend a small party of 2 people coming here is due to the fact that the chairs are high like barstools. It gives more of a bar feel, and although there were families when we came, it didnt seem safe for smaller children. These are more of things I wish I knew before coming here just to better prepare, but no hate to the restaurant. They do a great job with service, and the food was phenomenal.
