Bar Rubini In Roma

25/05/2025: As in almost everywhere, they charge you for concepts you don't understand. The food is good and upfront: antipasti and a pizza, to share, two 400cl beers and a tiramisu, 46 euros. The two beers, as always, very light, 12 euros. Nice and cozy interior, we dined outside, on Via Merulana, a busy road and a little too noisy. In short, a more affordable option in Rome.

16/05/2025: In a word, odd. While we were expecting nautical-ish decor, it was just odd. Lights too bright. We were almost the only people there. Service was the opposite of engaging; not unfriendly, just kind of “there.” Most dishes tasty though the linguini with clams was very light on the clams. Pesto was excellent. Can’t say that I’d recommend it. This place must be very busy sometimes otherwise I’m not sure how it makes it.
