Il Buchetto is an institution in Rome's Flaminio neighborhood. Like other historic Roman pizzerias, you don't need to book, but you have to wait in line outside. The place is very small, so we recommend arriving early (8:00 PM).
The waiters are friendly and the owners are welcoming, and the atmosphere is Roman.
Appetizers: We recommend the bruschetta (the tomato bruschetta is made with passata, not cherry tomatoes). Don't expect to find the classic fried pizzas, as they don't serve them.
Pizzas: A wide selection, with the option of ordering a small or large pizza, depending on how hungry you are.
Prices: As popular as they once were.
Seven of us ordered four appetizers, seven pizzas (some small, some large), and two waters. Just under €12 each! Which was a pleasant surprise, considering that a pizza and an appetizer in Rome these days can cost as little as €17.
Value for money: 9/10

A historic pizzeria where authentic, super-thin Roman pizza has been delicious for a hundred years. The owner and waiters are incredibly kind and welcoming, and the place has always remained simple, if a little noisy. Don't miss the fan with custard, a true delight.

Good pizza where locals eat. Tight space around the tables but that is sufficient for quick meal. Not a place for romantic dinner. Staff efficient pleasant and fast.
Pizzeria, very low prices, excellent quality ratio

Authentic Roman pizza. Simple but nice and good place. The only downside is that there are no fried foods as appetizers, only cold dishes.

After many years, Il Buchetto has always remained the excellent neighborhood pizzeria that it has always been. Light dough, well cooked. Normal prices. And above all the legendary fan with cream. You can't book so to get a table you often have to wait outside, considering that the place is small and seats few people. They don't do fried food, everything is cooked in a wood oven.

For those who know it, there is no need to say anything, an institution!
For those who don't know it, an invitation to try it: don't expect imaginative or exotic menus, you will have a simple environment [perhaps too much] but pizza - strictly Roman - good and above all at the right price, in addition to friendly staff .... don't miss the legendary tomato bruschetta 🍅: a ciriola opened in half, toasted and with tomato sauce [with or without garlic]
