Al Callarello In Roma

good place with reasonable prices

Welcoming place...polite and helpful staff and really good pizza

The only restaurant where we were able to taste the pasta alla vongole which was delicious (and we make this dish at home so we were rather demanding when ordering the dish). The pasta is not undercooked, it is "al dente" 😅 Finally, the service was family when you speak Italian or when you try 😁

Very kind, welcoming, and helpful. Thank you.

Charming outdoor location. Friendly and welcoming staff. Wide selection of seafood dishes. Gluten-free options available.

July 26, 2025, dinner. Having passed by the restaurant's street for years, this evening I decided to try it. Even though I hadn't booked, the very kind and friendly owner quickly found me a table for two. The service and atmosphere were very good. I personally ordered the tonnarelli with mussels and pecorino cheese and a fried calamari platter. The only downside was that the first course was completely flavorless, probably because the chef had the wrong amount of seasoning, but the mussels were very fresh. The calamari were excellent, and very fresh too. My companion ordered the cod fillets, which he said were good, and an amatriciana, which he thought was average. The homemade bread was very fresh, and the restrooms were very clean. I'll add, in conclusion, that three forkfuls of tonnarelli and a few more mussels and calamari would have been very welcome... Anyway, the bill, when I got home, didn't add up, looking at the menu. I spent 60 euros... Cod 6 euros, Tonnarelli 15 euros, Amatriciana 13 euros, Fried calamari and shrimp 20 euros (I only asked for calamari, editor's note, so I now feel like I paid full price for a dish that was half price), water 2.50 euros. Bread and white focaccia were not requested, but I paid for them at this point... I owed them anyway...

Everything was perfect. Table for 12. We were treated very well. Impeccable service. Quality food.

Excellent food. Authentic Italian

Il 20 giugno festeggiamo 50 anni dal diploma siamo 13 (non è un numero da tavola). Qualcuno dice che eravamo 13 pure al 40, speriamo di essere 13 pure al 60 esimo. Dopo un giro nel nostro istituto, il Pio IX nel colle difronte, siamo arrivati al Callarello. Accoglienza fantastica, menu’ concordato. Tutto fresco sia di mare, che di terra. Servizio impeccabile. Grande disponibilità. Alla fine una sorpresa di gamberi e calamari fritti. Tornerò anche da solo. La bellezza della location nella splendida San Saba ha fatto il resto!

Autentica cucina romana in un locale appena fuori dal caos del centro. Le persone che ci hanno servito lavorano con passione e simpatia, preparando a regola d’arte le classiche prelibatezze locali. L’atmosfera è estremamente semplice, ma si respira davvero profumo di casa, che ti lascia il sorriso una volta usciti. Lasciate perdere i ristoranti più “rinomati” che finiscono per lavorare in catena di montaggio, questo ristorante è la scelta giusta!
