Camponeschi

Camponeschi is an expensive and very nice restaurant. Italians arrived in coat and tie, some «out of it» Americans in shorts and team jerseys were treated respectfully (but looked like fools), we wore nice pants and shirts, dresses, and fit in. I’ve been to Camponeschi 5 or 6 times over the years, and over time the service has actually gotten better. The imperious head waiter who used to ostentatiously boss the waiters was not there on his visit. A really fun night, on a quiet historic square dominated by the French embassy in the old Farnese palace.
The food is top notch delicious. Get the whole Branzino (Mediterranean sea bass, 12−14″ long) if it is available, the pastas are amazing. The clams and mussel sauté was really great. Nice complementary fruit and cookies arrived on this visit, when we declined desert.
One of my favorite restaurants in the world.

Perfecto

Very disappointed. The atmosphere is very romantic and it;s in a great location, but the food was not good at all. It was full of tourists who don’t know any better. Don’t waste a meal here. The worst part is it is very expensive — the most we spent on any meal in Europe.

Du grand standing
Du grand art dans la composition des plats et un vaste choix qui vous éblouira. Une ribambelle de serveurs à vos pieds dans ce restaurant fameux à Rome. Tout est fastueux jusqu’à la facture! Il faut admirer les plafonds peints qui font concurrence à ceux du voisin: le Palais Farnèse.
