La Ciambella offered a truly authentic Roman experience. The dishes were traditional, full of flavor, and beautifully presented. It felt like a real taste of Rome—absolutely worth it!

I had the scallops for a starter and the artichoke lasagne as a main - both were amazing. The staff were incredibly welcoming and lovely! Would definitely recommend this place if in the area.

I honestly don’t know why this place doesn’t have a Michelin star—it absolutely deserves one. We saved the best for last and dined here on our final night in Rome, and wow, what an experience.
From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly professional and positive. We loved hearing their enthusiasm about the history behind the dishes—it made the meal feel even more special. We debated getting the tasting menu but ultimately went with à la carte, and it was the perfect choice for us.
Our server was beyond amazing—she not only made us feel so welcome but also went out of her way to split our secondi (beef tartare and lamb) into perfect half plates so we didn’t have to share by eating out of each others plates. We originally planned to have just one dish each, but thanks to her, we got to enjoy even more of the incredible food.
And speaking of the food… I could marry it. Every bite was perfection. This was, without a doubt, the best meal of our trip, and we’ll be dreaming about it until we return.

Personale gentilissimo ed accogliente. Sapori tradizionali in versione gourmet: ottimi gli abbinamenti. Pane fatto in casa. Molto ben curata la mise en place. Carta dei vini dal design abbinato all'ambiente. Da ritornarci per scoprire nuovi sapori.
We spent a wonderful evening at the table overlooking the kitchen, a well-stocked wine list and also the sommelier, more than excellent food and menu and professional but never formal service to make the customer feel as welcomed as possible.

The food, ambience, and staff were all in harmony. We had a lovely evening. The staff were very polite and attentive. The dining room was quietly elegant. All the dishes were well balanced and thoughtfully prepared. Grazie!

Excellent location. Welcoming service and great courtesy. We ate the starters (cod rolls, fried sweetbreads and wraps) which were all excellent. Carbonara and gricia equally excellent. SUPER chicory (the best eaten in Rome). The price is in line with everything. We will be back. Franco Lazazzara

The food is good, the place is nice but the
The lady and the waiter who served us were quite unfriendly.

This place is fantastic. The food is an absolute revelation. Beautifully cooked with inventive takes on classic dishes and some modern options in there too.
The service was impeccable and the wine menu was a beauty to behold! In fact, I’ve rarely seen such a full and well-rounded menu with amazing wine selections from all over Europe (and a select few from other parts of the world).
Highly recommend La Ciambella. I would have scored the atmosphere a 5/5 but we were seated right at the front of the restaurant with only 1 other table. This was entirely our fault, as we were walking past without a booing and just asked if they could fit us in. After a week of eating average to below average food across Rome, this was a pleasant surprise and we thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it.

Siamo tornati al ristorante La Ciambella, e abbiamo trascorso due ore molto piacevoli, in assoluta tranquillità.
L'ambiente è sempre luminoso ed elegante: il ristorante, infatti, è spazioso e molto curato, come dimostra l'ottima disposizione dei tavoli.
La cucina presenta diversi tocchi d'autore: si distingue per una proposta originale, e per alcune interessanti e ben riuscite rivisitazioni.
Abbiamo gustato la vignarola in una edizione invernale molto ben riuscita, i bottoni ripieni di provola, il brasato di lesso "alla picchiapò", e gli involtini di baccalà. Piatti tutti ben riusciti.
Complimenti alla chef e al personale, sia di cucina sia di sala. Siete una bella squadra!
