"We came twice to this little spot for Aperitivo and it was great. We could tell the locals come here and it’s not a typical tourist trap. They gave us chips, huge olives and some delicious sandwiches with the Spritz. They also have affordable prices. Definitely a good place to stop by after a long day walking in Rome"

"Yesterday I Was here with my friend. Was so nice. Workers was really ok and helpful. Everyone was Italian so for me that was really important. I ordered a few drinks and got a free cookie and olives that was very nice. For example the glass of prosseco was full. I’m sure I will back here. Greetings from Poland"

"Very nice small restaurant. One of the few family owned places in the area. We met the grandson of the owner Carlo. He was really nice. The restaurant has been open since 1949. When you order wine, they will bring you some of the biggest olives I’ve ever seen in my life. Do not skip this place."
