I migliori ristoranti di cucina pesce in Roma

10/10/2025: Excellent atmosphere, quality food, beautiful location on the lake, kind and professional staff.

27/09/2025: Yes, the food is good, but the service is truly terrible. There are no off-menu items (on a Saturday night), and most importantly, they don't have everything on the menu, so you're forced to choose from the few items listed. At 10:30, when you still have to finish dinner, they come and tell you the kitchen is about to close and to bring forward any desserts you want for later! It's absurd, they practically kick you out in a polite manner, and at 11:00 PM, the restaurant is empty! They have no choice of liqueurs or spirits! A real shame because the location is very beautiful!

28/09/2025: A great discovery, very fresh fish, excellent taste, spectacular dishes, highly recommended.

17/09/2025: Perfect welcome, excellent location and food.

03/09/2025: If there's one place in Rome I always love returning to, it's Il Papetto on Gianicolense. I don't know if it's the family atmosphere, the consistently friendly service, or the quality of the fish, but every time I go there I leave with a smile and a happy belly. It's one of those restaurants that makes you feel at home, without too many frills, but with an incredible attention to flavor and fresh ingredients. The first time I went, the name intrigued me, but it was the aroma that wafted from the door that won me over. As soon as I sat down, I immediately noticed the courtesy of the staff: smiling, helpful, and ready to offer advice without ever being intrusive. And I must say, their recommendations have always turned out perfectly. The seafood appetizers are, in my opinion, Papetto's real strength. Fresh, varied, and lightly prepared, they're a riot of flavors without ever being heavy, and they open your stomach for the following courses. I've tried the raw fish several times, and I must say the quality of the fish is exceptional: you can taste that it's been carefully chosen. The cooked dishes are also fabulous, with simple yet thoughtful combinations that enhance the natural flavor of the sea without overpowering it. Every bite seems to tell a different story, and that's rare. The mussels deserve a special mention: simply fantastic. The broth they're served in is unforgettable. It's balanced, light yet flavorful, with a final touch that makes you want to mop up every last drop. The first courses are equally extraordinary, maintaining simplicity and complexity at the same time, with that common denominator: fresh ingredients. It's clear that behind them is a particular attention to detail and the harmony of flavors. The atmosphere is simple, welcoming, and refined, unpretentious but with a warm feeling that immediately puts you at ease. There's nothing forced: it's almost like dining at the home of friends who love to cook well and share their passion. Ultimately, Il Papetto is one of those restaurants that makes you want to return again and again. I recommend it to anyone who loves fresh fish, authentic flavors, and the pleasure of being pampered by attentive and sincere service. For me, it's become a go-to in Rome, a place where I know I'll eat well and leave satisfied. My recommendation, of course.

07/08/2025: Historic location, excellent food, and a good wine list. Sergio, Mariella, and Luciana are superb.

08/09/2025: I went out with my wife for a night out and she took me to Spettagosi...the food was excellent, I had a great time. The price was below expectations. I think I'll be back.

07/09/2025: The place is small, but the food is unbeatable, everything is delicious.

18/10/2025: We tried the appetizers, first courses, second courses, and desserts, all perfect. The service and helpfulness of the owners are beyond compare. We return as often as we can when we're in Rome. Highly recommended.

17/10/2025: I can't give it five stars for two important reasons: we ordered a simple cacio e pepe, which arrived covered in COLD fried zucchini, thinly sliced, which negatively affected the taste; in fact, they were set aside. We then ordered a lobster catalana, which is priced at €90 per kilo on the menu, but unfortunately, it doesn't live up to its value, both due to the freshness of the product and the way it was served, with a mashed potato covering the lobster itself. I've attached a photo for a visual assessment. To be fair, I'd also like to highlight the courtesy of the staff and the atmosphere of an old-fashioned Roman tavern right in the city center, just steps from the Vatican.

10/10/2025: We chose the tasting menu and were thrilled: each course was a small masterpiece, with original pairings, excellent ingredients, and impeccable attention to both plating and service. A truly exquisite gastronomic experience.

07/10/2025: We returned after more than 10 years and it was once again a wonderful experience. Great dedication was shown both in the kitchen and in the dining room. Congratulations and keep up the good work!

16/07/2025: Excellent restaurant, good quantity of dishes, high prices but quality comes at a price with the 20% discount, it's worth trying.

05/07/2025: Great atmosphere, a little old but that's okay, great food, excellent service

18/09/2025: Great experience, I go there regularly, excellent for lunch break, on weekends there is always live music and dinner shows, top food, fresh fish and then the delicious Nikkei cuisine... polite and professional staff... I absolutely recommend!!!

14/09/2025: Amazing restaurant in Rome. The food, the drinks, the atmosphere was top notch. I highly recommend this restaurant. The owners are especially friendly and so warm as well. Please make sure to stop in while visiting Rome. Thank you for a fabulous time!

15/05/2025: Family dinner, nice and welcoming place. Exceptional food We tasted very special and good fish dishes Kind and friendly staff

11/05/2025: Absolute guarantee. Luca and the great Pietro (creator of a fantastic minestrina and thanks again for your availability) are able to make anyone feel at ease... the quality of the food can't even be said FRESH FISH IS FRESH, but every time it's a pleasant surprise. The potato soup, bacon, mussels, prawns, an explosion of flavours, the first courses are always excellent and the grilled food is really, really good... the divine desserts, the cassola and the zabaglione dessert with vermouth from FEAR GOOD CELLAR WITH AN EXCELLENT SAUVIGNON LA BUSE FROM LOF. THANKS GUYS

19/10/2025: Every restaurant has its own approach. If you want a menu where, for example, you charge €2.50 for a coffee or a bottle of tap water, that's fine. Or expensive entrees, that's fine. But then the service and the location must be top-notch. Instead, the tables are packed and there's no room for anyone to pass, with those at the next table sitting with you. The server is clearly struggling. As for the entrees, the bill... everything is so difficult.

08/10/2025: Everything was delicious, but the place was too small and cramped for my taste.

23/09/2025: I have been a customer with my friends Laura and Jlenia for a few years and I am very happy with them.

21/09/2025: Poor Prosecco... but nice people

17/10/2025: Unfortunately there was sand in the food and they still charged the full price. Small portion and average quality for €20 pasta. The male waiter was really nice though. I won’t recommend this restaurant

11/10/2025: Flavors in every bite. Service filled with smiles. A great place.

04/10/2025: It's not about the products, but they were so kind to let us use the bathroom even though we hadn't consumed anything. Super kind and helpful. Thank you, I'll definitely be back for more.

03/10/2025: Excellent cuisine with excellent raw materials at honest prices

14/10/2025: The lemon meatballs are delicious. Thanks for the recommendation.

12/10/2025: It's a nice enough place with friendly staff, food was ok but not quite at the levels the reviews and price would suggest.

09/10/2025: A very welcoming place, with refined, well-prepared dishes and amazing homemade pasta. A good wine cellar and very fair prices for wines by the glass, especially considering the amount you order. The restaurant owner is very attentive to his customers. Worth a try, and in my opinion, definitely one to try again.

28/09/2025: I've been saying for a while that I want to try this place. I've been there every year, and I can tell you it's truly worth a try. It was an excellent culinary experience, but what really impressed me was the food and wine pairing.
