Grandma Bistrot In Roma

After my fifth visit to this beautiful place, after tasting 3/4 of the menu and seeing my satisfied face and those of my fellow diners, it's time to have my say. Grandma is a delicious jewel of Roman and Levantine cuisine: a mix of courses for all tastes (and I have them all, I think 😀) from the aperitif to the rest of the courses, desserts included. The Mediterranean menu is a journey through flavours, influences and recipes ranging from Italian cuisine to Greek, Arabic and beyond. You never exaggerate with the portions, ideal in terms of quantity and seasoning. Frankly, it's something I appreciate, since being able to taste different dishes and jump between the shades of complementary flavors is an advantage, rather than taking on unnecessarily giant dishes that is so fashionable. On this tour, I dedicated myself to my favorite cocktail that I rarely order around the clubs, as it is often underestimated: the bloody mary. Yes, I know it seems like a silly cocktail, but I like it so I order that. I'm not a lover of spirits but I am of this one, nice and spicy. Bbboono bobbono. Then, unmissable: panzanella, spectacular moussakà, super tasty chicken skewers and tzatziki. With a combo tasting of my partner's other dishes. I also recommend the super meatballs with sauce that others have ordered (and which I have tasted in the past) together with the dolmades which I really like and various meatballs. The cuisine is also suitable for vegans, in my opinion there are several themed dishes, even if not being vegan I have never paid much attention to them. The place is smart, welcoming and relaxing. And with the staff always ready for a chat it's a pleasure to go there all year round, inside or out. The cooking is also quite quick and the prices are adequate for the quality of the raw materials which, it is easy to see, are the strong point of all the dishes. Overall, I really like it and recommend it :)

It was a birthday party, although I remember going here years ago for a beer with friends. A vegetarian lunch that I appreciated in all its dishes (including starters and first courses): special mention for the fried courgettes that I was unable to photograph (cut very thin and crunchy), meatballs in a chickpea crust, potato bites, tomato salad and onions, cheese and pepper, garlic and oil, etc. Personally I ate the cacio e pepe, and usually the cheese solidifies immediately with the pasta, which didn't happen here, on the contrary it remained creamy. Another special mention - especially for me who am not a big fan - to the red wine: if I'm not mistaken an Electric Bee Primitivo. Congratulations also for the choice of products you serve to the customer. Informal (almost familiar) and quiet environment, with super friendly and helpful staff, especially towards me (with the allergies that unfortunately I have). The only sore point that I feel like sharing, even with those who love spicy food: it seems that the spaghetti with garlic and oil stings a lot. At the next non-vegetarian meal, to complete the menu! :)

Simple but welcoming place, the guys are very kind. Good dishes with a good choice. I will definitely return. See you soon.

I had the opportunity to have lunch here with my family. Excellent start with an exquisite Tuscan crostini, then continuing with a cacio e pepe doc and then culminating with coffee and the typical Amaro del Quadraro, a famous local liqueur whose history linked to the resistance during the Second World War was illustrated to us by the hospitable host.

Here it's like feeling at home, a very welcoming, informal environment, you have that feeling of being at home among friends. Divine dishes, I recommend trusting the menu of the day. Whatever you decide to take you will never be disappointed🫠

The place is casual and very pleasant. Double menu, Roman and Levantine cuisine, both excellent! Friendly and helpful staff, average prices. Beautiful atmosphere in a characteristic street of the old Quadraro

The archaic energy of two grandmothers, one Roman and one Egyptian, hovers in this place, and the spirit of the elderly cooks evidently possesses the kitchen staff, all very good but very good (peppers humus, fried polenta with cheese and I don't remember which vegetables, gnocchi of potatoes with cheese, sheep skewers...) I was lucky enough to have dinner next to Flavia who, after her shift, stayed to drink and eat and who was able to advise me well and I too can only generally recommend this place to you, I will definitely be back

He became cool once with €25 you could eat and drink for two and the quality was better and above all few of us knew him, there were armchairs and they weren't all tables together

Il posto è molto carino, ha il giardinetto esterno. Ottimi cocktail, cibo di buona qualità ma un po' caro. Buon servizio, ci vado spesso e continuerò a tornarci

ho festeggiato in questo posto, scoperto per puro caso, il mio compleanno; ci siamo trovati benissimo ...cibo di qualità; piatti sfiziosi e inusuali ; posto accogliente e personale estremamente disponibile ( avevamo con noi un bimbo piccolo e i ragazzi si sono adoperati per servirgli del cibo edeguato alle sue esigenze ) . prezzo assolutamente allineato alla qualità del cibo offerto. Ci tornerò molto volentieri e lo consiglio a tutti
