Tigellino In Genzano di roma

29/05/2025: Fantastic food, quick and friendly service and cute restaurant

28/05/2025: I am Italian, I have family in Rome but had not come in many years. I was disappointed to see that the majority of restaurants, even the historical ones, adapted their food to the floods of mediocre tourists that come here, especially Americans expecting to find the same steroids inflated meet and GMO vegetables they find at home or the greasy salty and sauce and cheese filled pizza they make. The only poor reviews are from these people. This is Italy: the country of authentic ingredients and cooking mastery. Gli specialisti maintains that and it’s finally the first authentic restaurant I found in days going around Rome. L’amatriciana was the best I ate in years: tomato sauce cooked to perfection, guanciale crispy and super yummy, the fiori di zucca were super tasty. Someone talked about them being greasy and made in old oil, I don’t know what they are talking about, they were great. My partner ordered state of the art ravioli and great polpette. Finally the service was in the Roman style: caciarone at the right point and super friendly and hospitable. I’d definitely come back and I’d recommend it to anyone who’s really interested in tasting authentic Roman cuisine and opening their mind to the real Italian local culture. 100 e lode grazie
