Insolito In Roma

06/07/2024: I had dinner at this restaurant with my wife. The place is quite small, I'd say about fifteen seats, located on one side of the Torraccia square. Even if the location is nothing special, it is still welcoming. Once you enter, the magic happens: you are welcomed by the owner and chef Andrea and all his expertise, passion and friendliness. My advice is to forget about the menu and get advice from him, you certainly won't regret it. We did this and everything was perfect, from the wine (which if I remember correctly was called "Micagnente" or something similar), to the starters and so on up to the dessert and digestives. A mix of revisited tradition and innovation, all supported by quality products, study and good taste. It was all very good, if I really had to make a choice I would say the best were the crunchy vegetable meatballs and the onion tartare (not having seen the menu I'm making up the names 😅), but all the starters were special (the cheese moussines also deserve a mention). stuffed ricotta and venison ham), the gricia with asparagus was also very good, less memorable were the gorgonzola, rocket and honey strips (or jam of something, I don't remember). A note also about the table service offered by a very young boy (whose name unfortunately I don't remember) with the same passion and friendliness as chef Andrea. Don't expect formality or impeccable professionalism, but you will certainly feel at home. It's like having a chef brother and going to dinner at his house... We will definitely be back to try the other specialties!
