Al Cardello In Roma

Quite surprised at the very critical notes. Of course it's a little expensive with the 10% on the bill but that includes cutlery. For our part, apart from this “overcharging”, the service was good, we drank beers at a fair price and the meals were plentiful and good. No hair to deplore on the plate. In short, I don't understand this relentlessness. I have eaten worse elsewhere in a restaurant that is well rated by Google, which goes to show…

Excellent environment and excellent cuisine 👍 I was on a holiday trip to Rome and I was immediately attracted by this typically Roman environment. My wife, I and my son ate very well and had the pleasure of meeting the owner... Giuseppe. Very nice person and true Roman DOC, to whom our compliments and warm greetings go 👋👋👋

We stumbled upon this place before our Colosseum tour. It was great! Our waitress worked her butt off for our group and for the whole restaurant. It was fun, the food was great and the drinks were BIG.

A friend of mine and I stayed in Rome for a few days. We stumbled upon this little place one evening at aperitif time and returned the next day for a quick lunch before catching the train. The owner and his son are very kind and approachable. The father is a great talker and I was very pleased to find a person like him in a city that is always in a hurry, who spent time telling us a piece of his life and also listening to two strangers. Rustic place, which I appreciated. The food wasn't bad at all, ditto the aperitif.

Probably the tastiest homemade Italian food in Rome…

We completely disagree with the reviews below. We spent a fairly normal amount of 33 euros for a pizza, aperol spritz, half a liter of beer and a bottle of water. The service was nice and spoke sufficient English. The location is nice, within walking distance of the Colosseum, but away from the hustle and bustle and in the shade.

Not bad at all! A table costs 1€, service 6€! But be careful and look carefully at the receipt. When will you pay? I asked for extra potatoes and they said 2€, so the price on the receipt was 5€. Always check in Italy what you are paying for!!

Awesome food, fresh ingriedients and exceptionally hostpitable crew! Highly recommend this place!

Luckily I didn't read the reviews beforehand ;) There were three of us there at lunchtime and it wasn't full. In fact, a lot can be criticized. Chairs and tables are crooked, which is due to the street. The tablecloth, dishes and glasses (some of them made of plastic) are not of great quality. But the food was good and was served quickly. The service was super nice and we felt like we were among friends. Drinks were all OK. The (house) wine was even available in a very large glass, I think probably 0.25 liters for the price of a glass. The prices were completely OK, especially for the location. At the end there was a large glass with ice cubes and a well-filled bottle of limoncello to pour yourself. I was very positively surprised.

Went to this family-owned local restaurant and had the best Penne Al Arrabbiata! The owner was very warm and accommodating. Food was amazing! The ambience of the place was also great!
