"Top top place Close to Vatican, like walking distance , not like „famous” places, a few tables, but what really matters is PASTA. Delicious, freshly hand made with sooooo gooood sauces to choose from. We had two ( can’t remember name of pasta) with carbonara sauce which was close to PERFECTION . Don’t go to „big name” with crowd and long queue waiting time. Go straight to this guys. You wont be dissapointed"

"Believe the hype! We were looking for fresh pasta in the ‘fast food’ modern eatery and this fit the description! When we walked in, there was a wait as they were attending to a private party. The owner was at the register and was quite gracious and friendly. We ordered 3 pastas and the pesto was an all around favorite unanimously! The ricotta lemon ravioli was our second favorite. At first it appears that there are only 3 tablespoons of but there is an entire floor upstairs for seating - and the views are just perfect! The seating is also very unique - including the tables and the frescos on the walls. Definitely worth a visit!"

"We enjoyed our pasta dishes here. Flavourful & cooked just right. We also experienced friendly & helpful customer service. The guy was nice & respectful when answering my silly questions about what pasta is which & made recommendations on what I should get based on what I normally ate. We actually got some of their food delivered via Deliveroo before visiting the shop in person & while eating it in person is better & fresher, the delivered food was also good. Highly recommend for quick style pasta feed. They also have an upstairs area that’s cooler in the summer."

"A great place to enjoy classic Italian pasta dishes. The price–performance ratio is very good, especially compared to other places in Rome, and the pasta tastes great. The service is very friendly. The interior is simple but perfectly fine for a quick meal, making it an ideal stop for lunch before moving on. Highly recommended."

"​The best Amatriciana pasta I've ever had. It was the absolute highlight of my 4-night, 5-day trip to Rome. If I ever visit Rome again, I will definitely come back here and eat this at least three more times. This dish completely changed my perception of what pasta can be. If you prefer your food less salty, I highly recommend asking for it without cheese. The owner actually suggests this himself, and I followed his advice—it was perfect."
