Ristorante Al 34 In Roma

The best lasagna I've ever eaten

The food has a very authentic Italian flavor, the atmosphere is busy and the staff is small, there is a waiter who resembles Al Pacino, very friendly and helpful.

WOW. What can we say? It was the perfect last dinner in Rome for us. The Osso Bucco was juicy and delicious, the caesar salad was light and refreshing and the meat balls were hearty and the mashed potatoes were silky and creamy to perfection

Truly spectacular... The burrata and anchovies were so good I forgot to photograph them... On the other hand, I'd like to dedicate the carbonara to you... Highly recommended!!!

The complimentary bread served with olive oil was a perfect match. First time trying local artichokes, the texture was quite unique. One artichoke costs €8 (we mistakenly ordered two 😅). Today we ordered: A plate of stir-fried mussels (Mussels sauté) The mussels were quite large and the plate was generous, €20 Spaghetti with clams: White wine clam spaghetti €20 (very satisfied, the restaurant was willing to accommodate my request because I prefer softer pasta, and they specially made it for me 👍). Thank you very much. The restaurant's service was excellent; they were always attentive to the taste of the food.

Stepping into Al 34 feels like a beautiful journey back to 1950s Rome, wrapped in a deeply atmospheric and charming setting. Located in the heart of the city, this restaurant truly stands up to the highest standards of authentic Roman dining. According to locals, it boasts some of the absolute best pasta in Rome—and it absolutely delivers on that promise with unforgettable, perfectly crafted flavors. A standout highlight of the menu is the incredible artichoke tasting, a spectacular sampler featuring five distinct preparations of artichokes, each one uniquely delicious. To top off an exceptional meal, the decadent hot lava cake comes highly recommended. It is a must-visit spot for anyone seeking incredible food and a nostalgic, very nice dining ambiance.

We are back in Rome and just had to visit Ristorante 34 and it was delicious!!! AGAIN and excellent staff and great spot. We were here in Rome in 2024 and ate here 3 times so we had to revisit. This area so much better than where we are staying near Pantheon- so much cleaner and all around nicer.

So delicious. Service was great. We walked in without reservation. We had the focaccia with fig. That could have been a meal in itself. I asked the waiter to choose my meal because I couldn't decide and he was very helpful picking out a dish. I didn't realize the "fresh crab" meant an actual crab. My boyfriend had the veal. I'd eat that every day.

The menu goes beyond the basics. All the restaurants I went to were either Cacio e Pepe or Carbonara. This one is different; it has a super extensive menu with various "delicacies." Best experience in Rome. I ordered a long pasta with artichoke and guanciale, it was very good. And the comments about the gnocchi with shrimp were also excellent. It was worth it and I would go back!

Food pretty incredible, fresh ingredients. Insane that the restaurant allow street hawkers into the restaurant to peddle their wares and disturb the guests. Additionally they do involuntarily include a service charge but at least it's disclosed on the menu.
