Had dinner here tonight. Everything was fantastic. The seafood was fresh and perfectly cooked. We ordered seafood resotto, pasta with clams and fried mixed seafood. All delicious and reasonably priced. will be back.

Starter was good, but pricey. Ordered a grilled fish as a main with sides. Potatoes and vegetables are extremely expensive, like 15 for three slices of vegetables. A small fish for three persons was €100 euros.. in the end we ate for €50+ per person...and all of it was definitely not worth it for what we’d got. Besides this, we had reserved a table and had to sit outside in February. Would definitely not recommend.More

Excellent fresh fish and very good service in an unassuming neighbourhood restaurant. This is recommended in the guide book we have and was a five minute walk from our hotel. It is a small place with a wet fish counter at the entrance. Diners can...choose the specific fish they want if they wish. I had sautéed mussels to start,and these were big, meaty mussels! Following that I had the mixed seafood risotto which had prawns, mussels, clams and squid and was topped with a large prawn in shell and a langoustine. Both courses were delicious. My husband had the tuna tartare which was zingily fresh, followed by a daily special of monkfish sautéed in wine. The fish was simply cooked and retained its delicious fresh flavour. Book online, as we missed out on a table the previous evening.More

Small, cosy, bright place with excellent, relaxed, knowledgeable server. Delicious salted cod ( puree) over fried artichoke. Divided into three plates to each have as appetizer. Delicious ravioli with burrata and shrimp. Amazing, pretty dessert menu, great profiteroles. Lots of fresh fish sold by the...pound which can get pricey in relation to what ends up on the plate with no side dish included.More

Casual fresh seafood restaurant near Piazza Barberini - the food is excellent the service is poor almost as though the staff does not care that you are there. My wife had the salmon special which was huge - at least 12oz. I pecked a fish...from the display which I had them bake for me. I also started with a half order of fried anchovies. We had a bottle of Pinot Grigio which was reasonably priced. Go for the fresh seafood but don’t expect fine dining.More

A small trattoria in the center of Rome, close to Piazza Barberini and Barberini subway. Very simple italian recipes with fresh fish. We loved that place and the staff. Salut, cecile.

Food was pretty good but the service was overall awful. They forgot one of four plates, the were making fun of us in Italian (we understood some of the words they were saying), they were pretty much asking us to leave the place (one of...the waiters came about 15 minutes after we finished our lunch to tell us to bring the check). It is really bad to be paying that money for food and to feel so unwelcome in a place.More

We stayed at an Airbnb just a few steps away from this fish market that turns into a restaurant at night. Our waiter Simone was great, seafood was fresh and they also made an amazing burrata ravioli ! White clam sauce was so good we...ordered it 3 times. We ate there 3 times. We own a restaurant in USA so we are very picky. Why go somewhere else when it was so good and so convenient. They also had a great wine selection. Prices were not tourist prices. Lots of locals eating there. If you are near by do yourself a favor and eat there you won’t be disappointed, I promise.More

Food was excellent - fresh and perfectly cooked , but service is more than awfull!!! Starter and second course brought at the same time - like bistro. Strange that at the beginning of evening beer was not avaliable and server had extremely poor English.

Made an online reservation for 2 for 8:30 pm on a Wed and received an email confirmation. When we arrived at the restaurant, the hostess told us that they were having problems with their reservation system and turned us away. I think she was trying...to make us feel better by telling us that this had happened to many other people. Don't trust an online reservation for this restaurant.More

Off the beaten path a bit. Their fresh seafood, salad, and cooked vegetables were wonderful. The Tuna steak was super fresh and cooked to perfection. I ate it with a side salad that was full of black olives, tomatoes, and fresh lettuce. My partner had...seafood risotto, and the rice was beautifully cooked. He had a veggie plate on the side with cooked eggplant, zucchini and red peppers. Ambience was cozy and service was excellent.More

DId not have truffles at this restaurant - it is primarily a fish restaurant. In Piedmonte you will almost always get the real deal - especially if they bring the whole truffle bulb out and shave it. Not to worry.
