Mare Nostrum Seafood In Roma

Small and welcoming place in Trastevere with background music, all the dishes tried give an emotion to the palate, excellent combinations, waiter and owner convey love in what they do.

Last Sunday (Palm Sunday) we went for lunch at this small fish restaurant, attracted by the positive reviews left for the place. I must say that they are all true and definitely deserved. There were 4 of us (the Apulian table) and we found the interior small but well furnished and structured, in addition to the seats outside under the gazebo which are really nice. The level of cleanliness of the room is excellent, including the bathroom, one of the places that generally gets dirty more or more quickly. We ate like a dream, starting from the appetizers to the first courses (I had tagliolini with cod and pecorino crumble, very good and balanced) up to the desserts they produced (space Sicilian cassata, very good). Among the second courses, I recommend the mixed one, where there is also a piece of sliced ​​tuna in which you can savor all its goodness, also appreciating the cooking of the tuna itself which is very difficult to get right. What all the dishes have in common, as you can understand, is the freshness of the ingredients, their quality and their goodness, as well as the chefs' ability to enhance the raw material, which is certainly very delicate. I underline one very important thing: the restaurant has the "Friends of the Sea" brand, that is, a certification that tracks a marine supply chain that respects aquatic biodiversity. So, if you come here, surely the fish is not only of excellent quality but is also certified to respect the environment, which is very important. Very important note: the waiter who served us was always very nice and indeed decidedly kind and attentive to our needs, with whom we could joke and make the most of our experience. This, certainly, was a positive note because I always appreciate a convivial relationship with the staff, especially in what is supposed to be a seaside inn.

Warm welcome and service. Exceptional food. We had the salmon gravlax, the fish of the day in a tomato and grape sauce and the grilled octopus. Everything was cooked to perfection, tasty and very well presented. Excellent value. Congratulations to the whole team!!!

You have to take your time and make reservations. By FAR the best seafood you can get in Rome! My wife's truffle spaghetti was also really a poem ❤️ the waiter is super nice and funny. We were really happy that we were able to visit the restaurant. TOP

Small place near Trastevere. We had two appetizers, an amberjack tartare and a salmon carpaccio, and two first courses, orecchiette with broccoli and fished frog and spaghetti with cherry tomatoes, swordfish and aubergines. Overall we liked everything. I highly recommend the salmon carpaccio, tasty and well served. Orecchiette are quite delicate, but this allows them to enhance the flavor of the fish. The spaghetti was good, but average. There was a small oversight in the second first, but the owner (I think) immediately offered to fix it. Friendly and helpful staff.

Marco is an exceptionally graceful host, and he’s funny and easy going. If you have questions or special requests do not hesitate to ask because he’ll go out of his way to make his guests happy!! The quality of the fish is outstanding, the Chef is from Palermo, so you will savour Sicilian cuisine at its finest. Totally recommend this place. I regret not taking pictures, but I was completely immersed in the conversation with my friend, relishing in the high of the wine and the amazing food. I highlighted in red what I had from the menu. Tonnarelli pesce spada e melanzane are heavenly.

If you like fish, this is the place not to be missed. Taste, texture, cooking, originality, everything is excellent. Simple and friendly service. I loved.

Really enjoyed our meal at this place. All the seafood was so fresh and sweet, perfectly and very creatively seasoned. Every dish we bad was absolutely delicious, even something as common as mixed fried seafood clearly stood out in comparison to other restaurants, was definitely one of the best I’ve had! The gorgeous food experience was further elevated by the very attentive and professional staff, and nice wines :)

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.

Ristorante di pesce in zona Trastevere,ma in posto tranquillo,dove ho trovato facilmente parcheggio. Location piccolina,ma scrigno di una cucina dove la qualità eccelsa delle materie prime la fa da padrona. Crudi di ottima qualità,primi molto abbondanti,come la frittura mista,carta dei vini fornitissima e servizio cordiale. Sconto thefork regolarmente applicato!
