Mare Nostrum Seafood In Roma

Had the most amazing dinner, away from the tourist traps wonderful service, fresh seafood, don't hesitate just book a table if you love seafood you won't be disappointed.

Had a wonderful lunch this afternoon, service was pleasant and quick and the meal I had was delicious! Would definitely come back:)

Super quality and everything cooked to perfection. Very well stocked and you can find fish of all types. The service is youthful, friendly and kind. We were positively impressed by the availability. The location is excellent and the restaurant has the possibility to sit both inside and outside. The wines are also excellent.

Definitely recommend. Great food at reasonable prices. Not a fan of the outdoor seating area though.

Excellent fish, very clean bathroom and friendly waiter.

Great food but very slow service

This place has a lot going for it and if it's not located in Italy I'll probably give it a 4 star for food. Let me explain. I'm sure a lot of people are attracted to this location by its high rating but I think in terms of everything, it's decent so I wouldn't call it exceptional in any way as implied by the high rating. I wish the menu has better English translation than that given by Google translate. Food wise there are some innovation but the result is not as delicious as it could have been. The Gamberoni Terra a Mare (Land and Sea Prawns) is basically a pair of fried prawns in thin cheesy string wrap. I don't think it tastes better than well done tempura shrimps as the cheesy coating overwhelmed the prawn flavors. Tagliolini Mare Nostrum ai crostacei (noodle with shrimps) has a pile of raw shrimps with a pomodoro base filled with some carrots, squash, and bay shrimps. The bay shrimps should be cleaned better as some still have the black "vein" but the biggest problem is that sause doesn't have enough tomato taste which would help neutralizing the fishy taste. The "squash" veggie is tad too bitter which is disonnant with the sauce. I liked the small pile of raw shrimps as it adds a unique flavor but it's not enough to offset the rest of dish. Service is ok and you get your choice of sparkling or still water but food takes awhile so don't come here if you want a no frill dinner. The place is not big and it wasn't busy for me at 730pm on a Friday. I like that the waiter didn't come unnecessarily asking how are the food which I prefer. There are about same number of seatings outside or inside but don't come in large groups. I applaud the innovations it tries to do but taste is not better than simpler fare I've had outside of Italy. For Italian food in Italy it's not good enough for a 4 star.

We found this fantastic Seafood restaurant away from the noise of Trastevere and we loved it. So much so that almost every day we went for dinner or lunch. Exquisite dishes with signature cuisine. The prices are great for the quality of the product they offer. Don't miss it if you are in Rome.

Eccellenti i tagliolini Mare Nostrum, uno dei migliori primi di pesce mai mangiati. Ottimo anche il tonno. Non valgono la spesa i crudi, ma molto buoni anche i dolci. Locale molto piccolo e tavoli troppo vicini, ma nel complesso un'ottima esperienza, grazie anche alla simpatia e al calore del cameriere Marco.

If you are looking for seafood in Rome, then there is no better place than Mare Nostrum located in Trastevere. The Sicilian influence is evident in the innovative dishes which are all made with fresh ingredients. The spaghetti with vongole (clams) was the best I ever had! All food was delicious including including the cannolo with flavoured ricotta cream we had for dessert. There is also an extensive wine list to choose from. Prices are very reasonable. The restaurant is very cozy with a relaxed ambiance. Marco the very friendly and super attentive host provided some excellent recommendations and made sure our dining experience was even more enjoyable. A truly hidden gem.
