Ristorante Santa Cristina al Quirinale In Roma

Excellent food, especially the Amalfi lemon spaghetti. The desserts were also very good. The service was quick and discreet, though not very friendly. Prices were reasonable. The meal was enjoyed in a very quiet atmosphere.

Very friend and attentive staff. Had the lasagna which was very good. Would go back.

Excellent pasta. Very pleasant service. Don't hesitate to go!

In one word, wow! High-quality, delicious and precise food. The prices are good and not high. Excellent service, pleasant atmosphere. It was so good that we came back the next day. We ate zucchini pasta and zucchini flowers, filet mignon, fresh grilled tuna, roasted vegetables, vegetable salad, a glass of wine and finally espresso and apple pie. We paid a total of 108 euros The second time we ordered filet mignon in pepper sauce, pasta in lemon sauce, sirloin steak, potatoes and salad and this time they just went above and beyond!

Very nice restaurant, and the owner is kind and helpful. However, I think his assistant in the dining room should be less cold and distant and should be able to at least offer a half-smile to the customers, while also understanding a little more Italian. That's not her job. It's a shame. Overall, the dinner was good, except for finding 5-6 pieces of cartilage in the fish platter! That's unacceptable; the blame falls on the kitchen, and primarily on the chef. It's a shame, as it was delicious. I pointed it out and told the owner. Overall, it's still positive. These are two areas that really need improvement!

“Family owned restaurant” That’s what you can read on the front door and that’s what I was looking for. My wife had a business trip in Rome so I joined her for a 3-day stay in the very center of the city. I short listed 3 restaurant for our first evening. We walked to the one that was on top of my list and when I we arrived at the door I didn’t feel it anymore (looked too touristy and the menu had way too much options). So we walked to Santa Cristina al Quirinale. And it was an incredible experience. We enjoyed it so much that we came back for our last lunch 2 days after.

Very very very special meal indeed. Came here with my girlfriend in this nice little hidden gem of a restaurant. Best food of our trip. The wine pairing recommended by the owner is phenomenal, would buy a bottle of the sicilian white wine he recommended if I could find it. The christmas pannettone dessert special, together with the lemon pasta and steak was amazing as well! One of the best meals Ive had in Rome - will definitely be back if I can

Best steak and food I have ever eaten. Perfection. I went with my family 9 months ago and I’m still thinking about how amazing it was. Such friendly service too, an amazing business.

Tuna and potatoes to die for. Skip the tourist traps and come to this gem.
