This is a stylish yet simple restaurant in one of Rome's prettiest little piazzas.

We were more than happy to follow the recommendations of the waiter, who knew the menu backwards.

He took our orders without writing anything down too, but we did get what we ordered, so that was fine.

We were sitting in an enclosed area, with a hedge around us, so weren't gaped at by the tourists walking past, which made it more intimate and enjoyable.

The house wine - the Rosso Novello, was excellent. My cheese spinache pasta was delicious too, simple ingredients (which is how Italian food should be), with a yummy tomato flavour.

They have an excellent selection of hot and cold antipasti (including a whole, huge ricotta from which you are invited to help yourself) and simple but reliable pasta and meat dishes to follow.
