Osteria Dell'alloro

This is how I like to eat, light sometimes and this was perfect! Salads and Pizza and Cannoli's. They had all kinds of fish, but I'm not a fish person. We enjoyed everything, but the waiter could have been a little more attentive.

We ate here twice on our recent trip to Rome, the food was really good and not too expensive. It’s fairly near to Trevi Fountain as it’s only five minutes away so a good place to hide after the madness of the fountain (massive crowds there)

Our cab driver took us there as per his recommendation . The waiter asked if we wanted meat or fish (pesce o carne) and we went with the fish. The food and service were superb, however, the food they offered us were not all in the menu. The bill came out as a bit of a surprise but not at all unexpected. Ver carta

I will never eat here again after the complete rip off I almost put up with here. Extra items we never ordered or consumed added to the bill, which we refused to pay. They obviously have a scam going, organized amongst themselves, and they pick choose who to rip off. The food actually is ok, but I wouldn’t trust them ever again. You’ve been warned.

We’ve ordered some pasta and all of them are tasted very good but it would be better if the portion is bigger. Not cheap price though. I would suggest you order two mains or lots of starter if you are hungry. There are only 5 bottles and two draughty of beers to choose. The staff will ask too obviously for extra tips on top of 10% service charge you’ve paid. Even they are doing nothing.

We wanted a light lunch and ordered the appetizer platter of artichoke, cannoli beans, pita type bread, etc., plus ordered the bruschetta. We were pleasantly surprised! This was one of the most flavorable Roman meals we’ve had in Rome (most are pretty bland), and the service was impeccable (not sure why there’s reviews of poor service). It was a great find and now we’re on the search for similar recipes to recreate at home! Ver carta

This is my go-to place in the center of Rome. It’s always a pleasure even to step by for a glass of wine. But what you have to do is to eat here, they serve amazing food and they have yummy stuff like truffles and lobster. You can eat there without emptying your wallet but it’s absolutely a place to take someone for a special evening as well. Take your mum here or bring your boyfriend I was there with my dear friend and next time we gather the whole girl group for an amazing evening together!

I’m afraid this is my first negative review. A bit of a tourist trap; we made the mistake of sitting down to eat without checking out the reviews on trip advisor first. We had a seafood soup for two with some sparkling water. The bill came to £94, which in my view was hugely overpriced. The food was average. The waiter showed us the fish beforehand but offered no information on the price, despite us telling him that we were only after a light bite. To be fair, we should have been more proactive in enquiring about prices so please don’t repeat our mistake.

This location was close to the Trevi Fountain. We stopped in on our way to our hotel which was close to the Trevi. The waiter was kind and patient with our questions. I asked for recommendations and I took his suggestion. Fettuccine Pasta with Porcini Mushrooms for €18. I also had a nice glass of the house red wine. When my dish arrived the waiter sliced fresh mushrooms onto the noodles! It was very cool to watch and tasted even better! The pasta was thick, smooth and perfectly cooked! And it was served in a beautiful, colorful plate that added to the experience. My glass of red wine was perfect with the meal. There was free WiFi and my credit card was accepted. Ver carta
