6.5/10This establishment is owned and run by a friendly husband and wife who also have a cute wine shop next door. We made a reservation knowing it'd be busy on Saturday night. Our reservation almost got ignored since they didn't have a designated or clear system separating customers with/without reservation. The wine and appetizers of cheese and cured ham were great. The service was rushed and we were moved to another table to accommodate a large group of customers came in the middle of our dining. We wanted to order pasta but we're told they had 7 other orders to be fulfilled and may not be possible, however we were served in the end. We ordered Cacio de pepe and another Cacio de pepe with truffles, however they were made in a hurry with just Alfredo sauce and some black pepper on top, and the one with the the truffle was too salty to consume. The ambiance was charming and cozy, but service was chaotic. Maybe they need to hire another server so it won't be so rushed.

10/10Family of 3 from NW USA. Fraschetteria is something special. At first glance the menu looks simple but don’t let that fool you, the flavors are amazing. First quality ingredients and stunning preparation. This was our second visit and we will make it a point to eat here on any and all future trips to Rome!

10/10Very small hidden restaurant just off of the main street. You will need to make reservations to guarantee a table, there is only about 10 tables. The service and food was excellent. Loved the lasagna.

10/10wow this place was great. the service was perfecto. For the number of tables, I was surprised they were okay with us reserving for 6. But they got us right in. The food was amazing and made us sad they were closed the next day. Otherwise, we would have come back.

10/10This place is easily 10/10! The food was the best we had in Rome. Authentic, flavorful and delicious! The owner and his wife were the most accommodating and went out of their way to make sure we had a wonderful time. The lasagna, caccio e peppe, the meat & cheese board, and their appetizers we are very delicious. The place is small so make sure to have reservations before going. You will not be disappointed.

4.5/10The restaurant seems to be geared for tourists and is overpriced, while the food is mediocre at best. It does not seem to be authentically Roman and prepared with the care and pride I’ve come to expect from my many visits to Rome. The freshness and quality of ingredients was lacking. The bread was not crusty, as the traditional bread served in Rome. The red wine was served chilled. The tomato in the bruschetta was sliced, not diced (the first time I have ever seen that) and the tomatoes were not tasty. The cantaloupe in prosciutto and melone was also not particularly sweet. Not bad, but not good. My friend was also disappointed and pointed out that she believed powdered garlic was used in place of fresh garlic. I can only guess that all those who wrote positive reviews are not familiar with Roman food, as the restaurant was full of tourists. We were both disappointed and will not return.

I'm sorry you didn't have a good time with us. From what I remember the dishes came back empty and without any complaints, you could tell me at the time if something was wrong and give us the chance to repair. We only use fresh products and prepare all dishes freshly in the same time. This is why the tomato is cut into slices and seasoned at the moment and not prepared beforehand as most restaurateurs do, diced. We don't use garlic, but oregano, basilic, olio extra vergine and salt on the bruschetta! The melons are DOP fruit from Lazio and of the best quality, it may happen that among many there is some less sweet. I can assure you that we put care and passion into our business, as if we had to prepare a meal for our family. We will gladly wait for you next time Thank you Fraschetteria Giampiccolo

10/10This place is a hidden gem. The food was authentic, fresh and delicious. The menu is small, as is the space but everything we tried was amazing and that includes the local wines, recommended by the staff

9.5/10Beautiful beautiful pasta. The tagliere leaves more to be desired for the price, but the pasta is the best I've had in Italy. Excellent service, nice quiet ambience and very good drinks.

9.5/10Food is fabulous. We really enjoyed the dinner & ambience. Our reservation was for 6:00pm, though Google says they open at 6:30pm. When we arrived at 6:00pm, lady boss was busy cleaning windows, desks & everywhere. She asked us to wait & we waited. It finally opened around 6:30pm. This feeling is funny. The lady boss was so busy with so many customers that it makes me a bit nervous. The man was also busy & diligently preparing food. We did have to wait quite long for our food, esp dessert. Since their biz is so good, perhaps they should get 1 more person to help them. This will make our experience PERFECT.

4.5/10I wanted to like this place. Cute and quaint and close to our hotel with great reviews (4.6). Had reservations and were quickly seated but then waited for awhile to get any service... Even water. Restaurant is small and It was very hot (learned later they were having AC issues). Service was very slow. We ordered the Ceaser salad, burrata and prosciutto, and carbonara pasta. Ceaser was delicious and unique but everything else was just mediocre. The tiramusa was awful. We are pretty patient and understanding customers but the overall experience was pretty awful. Do not recommend at all.
