Pizza Matta In Roma

06/03/2026: Well it wasn’t as bad as what some people make it to be. Yes, it is in an extremely touristy area, almost right beside the train station within a whole district of 3/4 star hotels, so of course it is catered towards tourists, and of course most of the workers aren’t Italians, like those small trattorias you may find in the outskirts of cities. But that’s fine, because you’re in Rome, right beside the train station. The risotto alla Milanese was alright, it’s neither good nor bad. I can’t tell if they actually used saffron or food dye though. But the portion is huge. Carbonara also fine, not bad but not good either, it’s creamy, salty, kinda al dente but just lacks the fragrance from a nice carbonara made with rendered down guanciale. Braised oxtail was forgettable, it’s basically just oxtail simmered in tomato sauce. Sitting at the outdoor area was a bad choice cuz once in a while there were some scammers trying to sell us very expensive fake flowers. But if you wanna eat near your hotel for the night then it’s fine I guess.
