Spiedineria Do Careca In Fiumicino

22/04/2025: Very nice rooftop restaurant above the roofs of Rome. We really enjoyed our stay and the food there. Relaxed music that fits the modern feel-good atmosphere and very friendly staff. Thank you for this lovely evening.

20/04/2025: "Best" place to go if you have Amex dining credit burning a hole in your pocket. Otherwise, I’d strongly recommend trying one of the other restaurants on the Rome Amex list—or better yet, save your money altogether. If Amex wasn’t footing the bill, I wouldn’t dream of spending my own euro here. Let’s start with the positives: the view. It’s undeniably stunning and a great spot for an evening drink and dinner. Unfortunately, the food doesn’t even come close to matching the scenery. My wife and I had a late lunch earlier in the day, so we decided to dip our toes in with just two appetizers (baby octopus and tuna tartare) before committing to mains or dessert. The presentation was lovely, but the flavors? Disappointingly average. So much so that we stopped at the starters—no mains, no dessert, not even a coffee. As for the oysters on the menu, they’re priced at an eye-watering €12 per oyster. For context, oysters in Paris—a city not exactly known for being budget-friendly—usually cost €3-4 each. At €12, I’m assuming these must be the most mind-blowingly delicious oysters on the planet, though I didn’t dare test that theory. A word of caution for smokers: while they do provide ashtrays, this is not a “cigar-friendly” rooftop, so if you’re envisioning a relaxing evening with a smoke, a drink, and a view, you might want to look elsewhere. All in all, the view is nice—but then again, so are the views from most rooftop bars in Rome. Thanks to Amex for picking up the tab, but I’d highly suggest delisting AcquaRoof from your global dining selection. We came for the view, stayed for the credit, and left unimpressed.
