29/08/2025: It wasn't my first time dining at Trattoria della Barchetta, and once again it proved to be an absolute must-try in Rome. Yesterday I celebrated my mother's birthday here and, as always, the experience was impeccable. The quality of the food is truly top-notch, both the meat and fish dishes, prepared with great care. The restaurant is charming, elegant yet intimate, perfect for both a special dinner and a relaxed lunch. A special mention goes to the staff: professional, precise, friendly, and always smiling. Truly top-notch service. In short: a restaurant that never disappoints!
05/08/2025: During a trip with friends, one of them—who already knew the place from a business dinner during a conference—recommended it to us. And what a wise decision it was to follow his advice!
From the very first moment, the service was exquisite. We were greeted with a glass of cava and a delicious appetizer, which turned out to be just the perfect starter for what was to come.
The staff's suggestions were more than spot on. There were five of us, and each of us ordered a different main course: all were delicious, but if we had to choose a favorite, the parmigiana stole our hearts. Every bite tastes of Italy: authentic, comforting, unforgettable.
The place is intimate, tastefully decorated. The lighting, temperature, and music are perfectly balanced to create an incomparable evening. One detail we loved: the place is pet-friendly. Seeing people enjoying themselves with their dogs in a restaurant this special is rare, at least coming from Barcelona.
Plus, the atmosphere is relaxed, with no trace of the touristy vibe. You can eat in peace, well-served, and with the feeling that there's a nonna in the kitchen, preparing each dish with all the love in the world.
Personally, since my grandma passed away 13 years ago—except for the sauce my mother makes—I haven't tasted a sauce that took me back in time and with my heart.
We paid just over 200 euros for several starters, a main course each, a bottle of wine, a couple of extra glasses, water, and dessert. A well-rounded experience.
Highly recommended.
