Pizzagorà In Anzio

29/08/2025: Best cappuccino in Rome. We love stopping here for an afternoon pick me up. I craved this place for 2 months until we made it back to town. They have WiFi, only steps away from Trevi fountain and Rinascente. Perfect little spot.

25/08/2025: The seafood pasta dishes were a highlight. It was fresh, well cooked and full of authentic flavour. Best one I had in Italy so far. Alongside them, swordfish was beautifully prepared with delicate flavors that were perfectly balanced. The grilled octopus was also enjoyable, though the accompanying bread sometimes overpowered its natural taste, if they reduced the bread thickness it would allow the octopus to shine more and maybe adding a sauce with it since the bread felt dry. The fried calamari was crisp and well executed, and dessert provided a pleasant finish to the meal. Unfortunately, the cappuccino was disappointing: both the coffee and milk were served cold, which dulled the experience of what should have been a comforting classic. Now to the less pleasant side of the visit. Despite the kitchen’s clear talent, the service left a bitter aftertaste. On both occasions we dined here, some of the waiters were brusque, dismissive, and seemed reluctant to answer even the simplest questions about the menu. At times, it even felt as though we were being spoken about unfavourably, perhaps because we were foreigners or simply because we spoke in English. This attitude was jarring and detracted from an otherwise enjoyable meal. To be fair, not all the staff shared this attitude. One young waitress stood out for her warmth, attentiveness, and professionalism. Her service was exceptional and deserves recognition. In the end, I returned only out of respect for the skill of the kitchen, not the service. The service almost made this review a 3 stars. The food is deserving of praise but without more consistent hospitality, it is difficult to recommend wholeheartedly.
