Lots of charm and history, but the menu needs updating.
Taverna Alessandrina is a piece of neighborhood history: it's located inside a characteristic red house from the 1920s, and the trattoria has been there since 1960, run by the same family. Upon entering, you'll experience the atmosphere of a classic Roman trattoria: pleasant, welcoming, and with an undeniably charming authenticity. The service gets top marks: fast, efficient, and flawless.
Regarding the food, however, the experience was a bit mixed, with the feeling of a menu stuck in the past that deserves a little revisiting:
- Appetizer: We tried the zucchini flower, but unfortunately, we didn't like it. It was definitely too full of cheese, heavy, and not up to expectations.
- 🍝First course: A special mention for the pasta with wild fennel pesto, which was truly delicious and flavorful, even if there was perhaps a drizzle of too much oil.
- 🍗 Main course: We had the mixed roast (lamb, chicken, and sausage) accompanied by potatoes. Neither good nor bad, just average, just adequate.
- 🍓 Dessert: Strawberries and ice cream, a great trattoria classic, simple and standard.
In conclusion:
A place steeped in history where you can feel good, but culinary-wise it could use a refresh to better showcase its tradition. The bill was absolutely fair and standard: €25 per person (only water, no wine). I would return for the first courses, hoping for a boost in the rest.
