Maria Stavridou

One of the best Italian restaurants : Eggplant starter and the shrimps and wheat are simply amazing. The Amatriciana is top. You might have to queue for a bit but definitely worth it. Friendly staff .

Silene Lim

I am surprised this restaurant is not rated higher. The special of pasta with porcini and shrimp was one of the best meals I have in Italy. Ever! Staff is awesome.

Ali Arslan Gürkan

Pasta alla Norma the only dish that has to be produce, who ever takes over the restaurant , the branzino baked in salt, and the wine list . The best non-Michelin food we had in two monthsin Rome.

Jennissima

This place is incredible!!! The scallops were some of the best I've had and the cassata (straight from Palermo) was so good we had to order seconds!

Marianna Petrosyan

Love this place: simple, relaxed, buzzy, tasty! Try fried calamari and zucchini , all desserts are fantastic, especially apple pie . The Ox tale pasta is smth unusual and delicious. Book on Fri-Sat

Silvia Vitiello

Raw fish , especially oysters , are incredibly good. For "primo" try the spaghetti with sea urchin (Ricci di mare), then you cannot miss the cassata , a delicacy delivered twice a week from Palermo.

Very fresh seafood . Grilled calamari was good. Get chicory as a side. Service was very fast

Dine at one of Rome’s new breed of creative trattorias in Trastevere. La Gensola (0039 06 581 6312; osterialagensola.it) offers a mix of tasty Roman specialities and Sicilian-style seafood dishes .

Thomas Knüwer

Wonderful Sicilian kitchen with mainly seafood . Everything we had was outstanding, served by a heart warming service team in a relaxed atmosphere . Heavily recommended!

Yusuf Yılmaz

Very good staff . Typical Italian food cooked deliciously. Reasonable price, can be considered even cheap taking the high quality in account.

Nick Darken

The spaghetti with fresh anchovies and ewe's cheese was yummy. Great cassata . Nice relaxed setting and good service . A safe bet.

Atmosphere, service, everything was delicious and tasty! Happy to found this one while walking around in trastevere

Dave Morin

Ask for the special pasta which is not on the menu . I can't remember what it is called, but this is what it looks like.

Michelle Summerville

Sea bass ravioli , grilled shrimp and this cassata were all amazing

Alberto Farina

Don't miss the "Strapazzata di cavolo nero" - it's basically some scrambled eggs with black cabbage , bacon and some other stuff I can't remember... but I swear it's much more delicious than I can make

Ben Firshman

It's like somewhere from the countryside in the middle of a touristy area of Rome. Full of locals.

Roman Galeev

Pricey but worth it. Food is fine, also the service. Monkfish is delicious.

Dimitris P. ????

Great food and service! The boiling of the pasta is spot on!

Efisio Pala

Fresh seafood . Grilled calamari was really good and tasty.

Milad Cerkic

Seafood is very good. Lumber jack fish was excellent. So was tuna , linguini ...

Diane Foster

The salted sea bass is Amazing!!!

Yusuf Yılmaz

Very good wine suggestion from the waiter . Thanks

Magnus Hult

A bit pricey , but really good. "Tap water " apparently meant "bottled water without gas for which we charge €6" though

Marco B

Pasta a la Norma (not on the card but oh so good!!!)

Magnifica Osteria.

Pierangelo Raffini

È simpatico questo ristorante con cucina di pesce siciliana e piatti di terra di quella romana . Gli antipasti di pesce da provare e i rigatoni alla amatriciana con Patanegra squisiti e particolari.

Nicolas Louis

Excellent restaurant , service impeccable et repas délicieux ! Un vaste choix de bons vins et de plats vous feront tourner la tête. ????????????

Yury Nedelin

Отличное место, немного дороже средней цены по Траставере. Спагетти с морским ежом - очень гут

Eduardo Pinto

A sobremesa : torta de maçã com sorvete de canela . É isso que tem de bom.

Nice food, although it is not cheap. My husband enjoyed the beef cheek pasta, whilst I loved the mussel pasta with basil. This is a good pick for a special night out. - Sophie McCallum
