L'Antico Caffe Della Pigna In Roma

31/12/2025: Unfortunately, I have to note a rather drastic decline in the quality of the restaurant, as can also be seen from the negative reviews over time. This review isn't meant to be a criticism in and of itself, as I hope this feedback is read by the owners so they can correct their position. Prices have always been high, but this is acceptable if the quality of the food and service is high, which was the case until around 2021. Then came a slow but inexorable decline, accompanied by a reduction in portions, particularly evident in takeout, but baked goods have also suffered a decline. The once varied and rich "too good to go" has now become exactly what it shouldn't be, frequently consisting of dry pizza and hard croissants. The main problem, however, has currently become the service: the bar area is practically unusable due to slowness and inattention, new staff who ignore you until you call their attention 2-3 times, incorrect orders, and biblical times to get breakfast on a weekday. With some regret we will postpone the visits in the hope of returning in a different climate in a few months.

19/12/2025: The place is good, I stop by here sometimes because it's close to my office and it's convenient for lunch, with several first and second courses, as well as a wide selection of pizzas and baked goods. The only problem is that during peak hours like lunchtime, it's really crowded and the staff is very poorly organized. They're few and slow to prepare orders, so sometimes you have to ask several times to be served. If you're in a hurry, it's difficult to stop and eat, so sometimes I just order the pizza, which is still very good and has a great variety of flavors. If you have more time to stop, it's a pleasant place to eat, always keeping in mind that the prices aren't exactly low, but they're fair for the quality of the dishes. I must add that it's very difficult to find a seat...!!!
