Trattoria C'Era Una Volta In Sortino

12/10/2025: Excellent restaurant located in the heart of Trastevere, just steps from the eponymous avenue and Rome's nightlife. Truly excellent food; I highly recommend the boiled meatballs and the courtyard ragù! The atmosphere is elegant and lively, and the staff is friendly and attentive. We'll be back!

29/09/2025: A lovely little restaurant in the heart of the charming Trastevere neighborhood. The atmosphere is refined, with a menu that isn't overly extensive but sufficient to satisfy everyone's tastes. We ordered two first courses each, driven more by hunger than by the small portions, which were actually average. Carbonara, cacio e pepe, and amatriciana were all well-executed, although the guanciale was a bit too salty, but that didn't compromise the overall quality of the dishes. Prices were in line with the local average. To conclude the meal, we only had one dessert, tiramisu. Unfortunately, the babà, which was on the menu, wasn't available due to supply issues. The tiramisu was good, but it was truly overpriced. The experience was positive until the place filled up: at that point, the lack of an extra waiter became apparent. The waiter, despite working hard and only occasionally supported by a colleague, couldn't keep up with all the tables. A real shame. I hope this was just an isolated incident, because overall the place is worth a visit.
