Cacio e Pepe In Roma

30/06/2025: Once again, the Slow Food Osterie d’Italia guide was prophetic 😄. After booking online, we showed up almost half an hour early but were still welcomed with great kindness and attention. Even the ordering was a bit messy 😅. Appetizers and side dishes, then first courses, side dishes and more appetizers. Bruschetta with burrata and anchovies and with confit cherry tomatoes and a mixed salad. To follow: memorable fried gnocchi with cacio e pepe sauce, aubergine croquettes, fettuccine with involtini sauce and carbonara. 2 salads and 2 grilled vegetables as side dishes: fresh and quality. 1/2 liter of loose Trebbiano, 3 liters of water and 3 coffees. €124

29/06/2025: We went to Cesare to celebrate my sister's 30th birthday. The restaurant, needless to say, is located right in Casaletto, near the tram terminal. Rustic, lively and convivial atmosphere, but with interesting details, which recall Roman vernacularity. I recommend the appetizers, in particular the fried gnocchi in cream of cacio e pepe and the boiled meatballs, they are exceptional. Let's move on to the first courses: both the traditional Roman first courses and the fish-based ones are highly recommended. A special mention for the tonnarelli alla gricia, and for the rigatoni alla coda. The wine list does not disappoint either; you can't go wrong with both the sparkling whites and the passito wines The service is no exception: friendly, precise, attentive to every customer need, punctual but never intrusive. In particular, Alejandra was very kind in paying attention to my grandmother, who is over ninety years old. I recommend this place for both a birthday/graduation dinner and a more casual occasion. Definitely try it!
