As always, you eat well at honest prices, the owner is very characteristic, we are happy and I like to bring friends who come from out of town because it is the real Roman cuisine.

Judging only with the stars is very simplistic, the overall evaluation takes into account the moment and not the complex.
Betto e Mary is a tavern located between the Prenestino/Labicano and Tuacolano districts, in what is called the "mandrione" it offers simple, purely Roman cuisine based on the fifth quarter.
The furniture is the classic expression of the 70s, striped on the walls with red checked paper tablecloths.
The management is very friendly, the owner, son of the founders of the tavern, sits at the table to present the menu.
The tastings, brought as appetizers, were much appreciated, which are, veal tongue, grilled mortadella, seasoned coppa, nervetti, horse meat, shredded horse meat with rocket, aubergine with mushrooms.
The rigatoni with pajata was appreciated, the ravioli with horse meat was good, the first courses were completed by the "gramigna" with tail sauce, which I will talk about later.
Gramigna is a long pasta with a square profile thinner than a tagliolino.
As a second course, oxtail for everyone plus a plate of lamb pajata alla cacciatora, very good.
The weeds ruined the taste experience of lunch, which overall was good.
The kitchen made a mistake in salting the cooking water, presenting a very salty pasta dish and here is the rating given with stars.
Total price €253, discounted to €210 for the "gramigna" problem
I conclude with two questions;
Do I recommend it?
At the moment I don't feel like recommending it.
Will we go again?
Definitely worth evaluating again.
