Localisation parfaite, au coeur du trastevere. vous pouvez réserver, ce qui est un plus. En revanche sachez que : — le restaurant est EXTREMEMENT bruyant — le service est aléatoire, ici vous êtes un touriste parmi tant d’autres — les plats sont bons, mais des loupés peuvent arriver: mon plats par exemple était très salé

Had a bruschetta pomodoro and fish. The bruschetta was too hard, I didn’t like it but it tasted good. I’ve had better elsewhere. The fish with sliced potatoes was awesome, very tender, soft flavor, just as I like it.

Writing this after spending more than a week in Italy with my parents. We stayed three days in Italy, and ate mostly around the Termini Station, close to our hotel. We headed out for the Trastevere area, by recommendation of the hotel manager, to look for Da Tony restaurant. Da Tony was closed that night we learned from the incredibly nice host of the nearby Il Duca. We got a table inside. Service was attentive and friendly, they spoke perfect English. We had the chicken, the ravoli, and the beef(I’m going to take an educated guess and say it was braciole). Beautifully cooked and the lively street music only added to the charm. You know you want hear Enrique Inglesias’ Baliando played on a accordion. You can’t go wrong with this place or the charming Trastevere area.

We had the best spaghetti alla Carbonara here with absolutely amazing pancetta. Will reroute my vacation plans to come here again!

I’ve been here twice during my visits to Rome, and I really enjoyed the squash flowers, which are filled with cheese(and anchovies, I think), then fried with a light batter. This restaurant introduced me to them, and they do these amazing little fritters better than any others I’ve tried. The location of the restaurant in Trastevere is also excellent because you feel surrounded by locals and far from the hustle and bustle of the touristy areas. They have an outdoor seating area, which is very nice, too.

Not a very long wait, excellent food, moderate prices. I brought the kids(who were very welcome), and they had the simple but tasty fettuccine bolognese. All the pasta was tender, very fresh. We couldn’t ask for better service. House wine was good as well. Worth a visit on your trip to Rome.

Excellent! It’s a small cozy restaurant with great food. The pasta amatriciana is one of the best I’ve ever had. House wine was very good! Nice atmosphere.

The service was excellent! Every server was friendly, and Leonardo was so patient while we were ordering in our beginning Italian. The food was wonderful; I had the stuffed pasta with ricotta and spinach in a butter sage sauce with pecorino cheese. My boyfriend had the filet medium rare, which had a gorgeous salty crust. The star of the meal for me were the roasted potatoes with rosemary… Just indescribably good. The house wine is nice and just 9 euros per bottle. We had the chocolate mousse and cream caramel for dessert… Both just lovely. The chocolate mousse was rich but light. We are only in Rome for 4 nights and are already planning to come back. Thank you, Leonardo, for a wonderful evening!!!

Where should I start? The food here was amazing! This was my first(hopefully of many) journeys to Italy and this place was recommended by the guy at the front desk of my hotel. Our waiter, Leonardo, was absolutely amazing in recommending food to my group. If you would like a genuine Rome eating experience go here!

This place was recommended by our concierge over at bed and breakfast we are staying the night. The night started out well, we got to seat in the garden patio and it cute. Our Waiter was very nice and funny, but everything he recommended was against our taste. Grilled lam chops were skinny and over done, pasta was fatty and over salted, my wife’s ravioli tasted really good, I guess it is home made. When we were ready for Desert our waiter was no where to be found and waited over an hr begging to get our check, I would come back to the area to check out other restaurants, looks like there is a lively night life as well, oh well maybe next time.

This was our favourite low cost, locally patronized place in Trastevere, Rome. Great value for the money. Quick, friendly service, fantastic lasagne, good house wine, delicious standard deserts(tiramisu, crème caramel, crème brûlée). A fun, family atmosphere and a positive experience all around. We ate there twice(and will return) but make a reservation!

Sehr zu empfehlen. Wer nicht auf der Strasse sitzen will geht in den lauschigen Innenhof. Gute Weinauswahl und typisch italienische Kost. Hier sollte man von der Pizza die aus dem Holzofen kommt mal absehen obwohl die schon einen Besuch wert ist und mal etwas anderes essen. Muschelvorspeise genial oder Innereien. Nudeln amatriciana mit Guanciale! Fuer jeden gibts hier etwas.

Great hidden gem in the heart of Trastevere, Rome, Italy. The food was fantastic. Bruschettta Pomodoro was excellent, so was the Pizza Parmagiana e Basilico and the Cod Fritters. Great ambiance and friendly staff. Great experience. I hope I can find it the next time I am in Rome.

I went her with the girlfriend and her kids in 2006. We had rented an apartment in the same street. It was a Friday night and it was busy, but Trastevere is the local’s part of Rome, so if it’s busy, it’s good. Luckily, as I’d thrown in a bit of Italian, and they love kids, we got a table. The family were knocked out having some real pasta. We started with prosecco for the adults, and everyone stole bits of my dessert, pannacotta… so I ordered a full round. I loved it. Brings back memories writing this. Lovely.

How about an English review, eh? Definitely not listed in the«how to budget meals during your semester abroad» but absolutely worth a try. What Il Duca is known for is its steaks, and boy are they out of this world. Bite after bite just melts in your mouth and the whole A1 craving that you had before when you first smelled the steak has vanished. I am trying to remember what else I ate that night. Most likely your typical bruschetta con pomodori(tomatoes) and I am thinking a pasta dish as well. I think I had the carbonara that night, a typical roman plate made from eggs, cream and pecorino/parmigiano cheese. I have no idea when I will be back in Trastevere, but I will come back here when I return.
