Il Matriciano In Roma

10/08/2026: The food was delicious and the prices were reasonable, but the service was disappointing. A service charge is included in the final bill, which is probably why waiters aren't particularly motivated to be polite and observe proper restaurant etiquette.

10/08/2026: We've been here twice in a row and the contrast is incredible. The outside is absolutely stellar – the gentleman to the right of the bar shows off a true, unbridled Italian temperament. He talked five of us off the street with such charm that we went inside and didn't regret it – the food is great in terms of taste and price (compared to the Colombo hotel next door, absolutely top notch). ​But the service is even more disappointing. There are two waitresses and three guys hovering around the table (one of them was at least a little bit diligent), but the overall attitude is cold and lacking in spark. We don't know if it was because we were Czech, but the distance was also visible at the tables next to us. No recommendations, no active offer of dessert or coffee – just passive waiting for our order. ​It's a huge shame that a place with such food and a great outdoor entertainer is let down by lax service. If the gentleman served outside as well as inside, we'd leave at least twice as much money there
