I hate writing negative reviews and normally I just don't write anything. However this was so bad I felt compelled to inform people. TWICE the staff tried to dud me re the costs, but being a tourist and not speaking Italian I can handle this. Then when the ordered pizza arrived; honestly I would have been ashamed to serve it to anyone anywhere in the world, yet alone in Rome Italy. Burnt, paper thin, next to no toppings. Just horrible.

First day in Rome and jet lagged. Stopped in for a quick afternoon snack and rest. They created a great cheese plate for us that was not on the menu and were so nice with our kids who were practicing their Italian. Perfect afternoon stop!

We stopped this place only by occasion as our daughter fell asleep. Great atmosphere and great people running the place. Everybody wanted to make our time comfortable. Clients were mostly locals. First floor is a bar with pizza and appertizers. Second floor was open for canteen. Food was basic but well cooked. One of our best experiences in Rome. Special thanks to the girl from Sardinia.

Self service pizza and bistro perfect option for a quick lunch. Loads of locals enjoying a bite which was nice to see. Great selection of food, helpful staff and nice wine what else could you ask for? Great location on the way to the train station.

NIice retro' vintage style cafe, with a first floor terrace. I came a few months ago for coffee and I found it delicious. Forget about lunch, portions are extremely small, basically invisible.. they served me 2 little pieces of a local fish with no side dish except for 2 small pieces of cooked cherry tomatoes on top of the sad little fish tapas. I had a look at the menu as well and did not like anything.. food is presented ready for serving like in a buffet style but then there is no buffet. And is not food from the menu but you pay like it was freshly ordered
