30/05/2026: The place looks great; the entrance stands out from the surrounding area, and a beautiful bush surrounds the entrance. The interior has a lot of personality and is welcoming and quiet. 5 stars for the place.
The staff is very professional and kind, never too intrusive. 5 stars for the service.
The food is top-quality, starting with the appetizer.
The house appetizer is spectacular; the cheese with honey is excellent. The beef carpaccio is very flavorful, which is unusual compared to what you find in other similar places. The capocollo and salami are top-notch, congratulations. The highlight of the appetizer is the focaccia made by them with pork stew, a combination of flavors that make your palate dance. The bruschetta with ragù was also very good. The cabbage was good, but there was too much vinegar, in fact, it was the only dish we left. The potato millefeuille with rose beef is exceptional, a unique delicacy; I would have eaten only that, it was so good.
Moving on to the first courses, we ordered a well-made carbonara, nothing spectacular but excellent nonetheless. The gricia was different from the "traditional" one, with the addition of rosemary. The choice of egg pasta for the gricia was highly appreciated, making the dish very light and delicate, perhaps a little dry for my taste. There wasn't much cream cheese, probably absorbed by the egg pasta, but despite that, it was truly good and delicate.
The fillet steak was exquisite, prime meat and cooked perfectly as requested, served with regular salt and poplar-smoked salt, which was a real surprise. It had the smell of a felled and freshly burned tree, truly amazing. The baked potatoes were exceptional; the addition of a spice that I imagine is paprika makes them truly stand out from the classic ones you find around.
Finally, the desserts: the chocolate cream puffs, unfortunately, lacked chocolate. There were pieces of chocolate in the cream, and they were served on a chocolate base, but the chocolate flavor wasn't that strong. They were still good, though. I recommend dipping the cream puffs in the chocolate cream on the bottom of the plate to make them perfect.
The ricotta, almond, chocolate, and black cherry cake was delicious, a great end to a meal. Perhaps the black cherry overpowered the rest of the flavors. I recommend slightly reducing the amount inside.
For the 4-star food, everything was very good and of excellent quality. Your specialties are sublime. A few flaws here and there lowered the rating, but absolutely everything was excellent.
Highly recommended for those passing through the area and also for those who live in Rome and the surrounding area. I recommend a trip there for the breathtaking view and the excellent food at Osteria da Charlie.
