We were very excited to try this "local Roman Favorite" on December 29 But wound up disappointed. The food was OK, although the carbonara was very good. However, the service and attitude of the waiter and restaurant staff will leave a bad taste in your mouth. To top it off, our waiter tricked us and upcharged us for our pasta. We ordered three plates of pasta at โฌ16 each to share along with the rest of our meal and he offered to split them for us. We agreed, even though we were 3 couples and didn't mind sharing. On the bill, he charged us โฌ11 for For each half, an extra six euros for splitting the plates. He was very upset when he only got a five euro tip in reality he shouldn't have received anything.

It was good- I think it was not worth the hype it seemed very American and touristy but the people were nice and let us in without a reservation
Be the first to ReplyFood was good.
I wouldn't crave any of this but it was fine. The cacio e pepe wa perfectly al dente, but the sauce was broken. The lamb had very little meat - what you see in the picture, that top layer is fairly thin and that's all of the protein. It was probably just over 2 ounces worth. So not enough protein to potato portion. The server was so kind. I expressed I wanted to try the cacio e pepe but also wanted to try the lamb and it was just to much food. He graciously offered me a half portion of the pasta so I could have a full portion of the lamb dish. Very appreciated. The sommelier was also generous with her time and advice. I'm not familiar with all of the Italian wines yet and explained to her my preferences and she recommended a delicious option. I'm terms of ambiance, I sat outside and it was a warm, balmy November evening in Rome under a lit tent. It was a relaxing and an enjoyable place to dine.
Be the first to ReplyThe most amazing Italian experience I have ever had.
The coacciรณn peppe and carbonata are absolutely amazing!!!!
Be the first to ReplyThe food was ok to good.
but the service was terrible, and I'm writing as someone who has been living in Roma for 5+ weeks now. We were looking forward to eating at this legend but the chaotic service marred the meal. We spent about 100 E for two incl a nice bottle of wine. My wife ordered lamb as a secundi but waiters kept trying to wrap us up with coffee or dessert. This happened 2-3 times. Then finally another waiter came to say the lamb was gone. She substituted veal but the chaos of them not seeming to know what was order d ( not a language issue ) was comical bordering on bad. Save your money and go to another Testaccio place
Be the first to ReplyFood (3 out of 5) -- we made the trip to Felice a Testaccio
Food (3 out of 5) -- we made the trip to Felice a Testaccio for their famous Cacio e Pepe. Sadly, we were disappointed. The cheese and pepper were out of balance with too much cheese and no pepper flavor. There is a lot of focus at Felice on the presentation with the dish brought to the table with the cheese not having been mixed it. It's a nice presentation by the server making a show of mixing it table side. Unfortunately, in our case this left us with pasta that was cooled off far too much with some cheese not even fully melted and blended into the pasta. Service (3) -- service was better than our food, but still mediocre. Felice strikes me as, unfortunately, another once excellent restaurant that is largely now just getting by based on the momentum of its past success. Atmosphere (3) -- generic and nondescript. We did not come to Felice for the ambiance.
Be the first to ReplyMy family is native to New York City and visited Italy this
My family is native to New York City and visited Italy this summer. I came to Testaccio and was the young man helping the big wheelchair into your restaurant in August. Thank you for your help and delicious food for my father and my family. All the food was amazing and you are good people. You should know your food is desired not just internationally but also globally. People talk about your pasta in several languages, even in New York. Do everything exactly the same! Your food is so good it could be as popular as Rome's Roscioli or Florence's All'antico Vinaio in New York if you wanted. Grazie mille
Be the first to ReplyFantastico.
Started off a little slow but service picked up and was attentive throughout. Two different waiters, one for drinks and another for food. The host/head confirmed that everything was okay with us at the end which was a nice touch. Honestly every dish was amazing to me. From apps to dolce, each was superb. I very much like the artichoke which was cooked to perfection, tender and good flavor. Can't go wrong with any of their pasta dishes. The meatballs tomato sauce was succulent, great for dipping your bread also. The semifreddi desert is a must try. There was an issue with double charged for wine but that was quickly resolved. Great atmosphere and enjoyable. I would return.
Be the first to ReplyCame here for my birthday last night expecting to be blown
Came here for my birthday last night expecting to be blown away since all the reviews say it's the best. I've been trying cacio e pepe at every spot we've eaten at in Rome (Tonnarello and Da Francesco so far). This was my favorite. It was really executed well and the sauce was perfectly balanced. Their saltimboca and involtini were fantastic too. So why 3 stars? The service was horrendous. I'm not sure if we came on an off night or if they were short staffed or if we experience the widely known racism towards Asians in Rome. We sat for awhile waiting for menus, so that delayed us making up our minds. There was a big table of locals sitting next to us and then they sat another table of Americans that spoke a little Italian a few minutes after us. They tended to those 2 tables before us. The food came out pretty prompt and cleared away after we ate, but we waited for almost 45 minutes before a dessert menu was offered. The table that came after us was offered dessert right away. I know Italian culture tends to wait i between courses to sit, talk and digest but this was way too long. All the servers avoided our area even though I made eye contact with one of them. I didn't have this experience anywhere else on our 2 week trip throughout Italy. In fact the service was phenomenal at both Da Francesco and Tonnarello. Once we did get the dessert menu, the tirimisu was yummy. It's too bad the service took away from the quality of the food. I also don't expect people from another country to try to speak in English, but I found it curious that this was the 1st restaurant that didn't even attempt to try with us. 2 stars for the food but will not recommend this place for the poor/lack of service.
Be the first to ReplyBefore coming to Rome, i was told they had one of the best
Before coming to Rome, i was told they had one of the best Cacio e Pepe dishes and had to try. Surprisingly, it was easy to make a reservation at 1:30 pm on a Tuesday after our Colosseum tour. Upon arrival, we were sat immediately, drinks and bread came out right away. Servers are very friendly, but hardly speak English, enough to get by. We ordered the Cacio e Pepe, carbonara, grilled fish (came with squid and 2 shrimp), a salad (very basic), and red wine. They mix the Cacio e Pepe by hand when it gets to the table, and it definitely was the best I've ever had! Al dente noodles, perfect peppery flavor, just the right amount of Pecorino cheese, for the most flavorful and fulfilling dish. Interestingly, in Italy, the first course is the pasta and you don't get your salad or main course in our case the fish till after the pasta is served and eaten,Ii was so confused, i thought they forgot my food. They have certain dishes only available on certain days, I included a picture of Tuesday, the day we went. The fish was good, had a lot of bones, carbonara my hubby really liked, and my son loved his Tonnarelli burro, Sugi e parmigiano.
Be the first to ReplyIt was overhyped.
Very mediocre greasy overcooked food. The artichokes were mushy. The Sunday special pasta was tasteless and greasy. My partner ordered lamb and had to cut through layers of fat. The service was unfriendly and sat us by the toilets. I don't recommend it.
Be the first to ReplyHeard great reviews and had to try it ourselves.
And it lived up to the hype. We decided last minute to try Felice a Testaccio so we did not have a reservation. Luckily, they were able to fit us in right before closing. Normally, you'd definitely need a reservation.We ordered the Cacio e Pepe, Breaded Cutlets of Lamb with Fried Zucchini, Carbonara, Eggplant Parmesan, and Tiramisu.Honestly, everything tasted wonderful. The Cacio e Pepe stood out the most. It was the best Cacio e Pepe I've ever had. The tiramisu was also so so delicious. They had great service and spoke English really well.I hope to come back in the future and try more items on the menu!
Be the first to ReplyConsidered one of the best in Testaccio, the new food Mecca.
Great pasta with some creative, unique choices and reasonable cost. Excellent portions. Wine list a bit pricey for Italy but lots on offer. Service was excellent if a bit bustling. Shared a salad and a dessert, which was fine. Reservations a must; can be made easily online.Worth a try!!!
Be the first to ReplyAsked a local friend of ours what's some of his favorite
Asked a local friend of ours what's some of his favorite places to eat in Roma and he did not disappoint! It's about a 10 minute ride southeast from the center of Roma but definitely worth the drive! We arrived when it opened and already it started to fill up quick. The staff was very helpful and spoke good English, the menu was in both Italian and English too so it helped with making the choices easier. I had the fish which was cooked perfectly, and each of the calamari slices perfectly cooked all the way through but the prawns was slightly over cooked but I wouldn't complain. The pasta was delightful and smooth and the clams was fresh and scrumptious. But the best part in my opinion was the homemade tiramisu! Each layer was well balanced and the coffee at the bottom was delightful! In all my years of traveling the US I've never had anything like it, if I could I'd have some delivered to the US that would make my day!!
Be the first to ReplyWe were reading an interview with Eataly CEO Nicola
We were reading an interview with Eataly CEO Nicola Farinetti about his favorite restaurants in Rome and Felice a Testaccio was at the top of the list. He seems like someone we could listen to, so we made reservations for lunch and we are SO glad we did. Even though the restaurant was full, since we had a reservation we were seated immediately. The service was fast and attentive, one waiter gave us friendly recommendations for dessert and they didn't rush us out, even though the lunch was clearly over and tables around us that showed up after us were leaving before us.After ordering a well-priced Eremo Tuscolano Frascati Superiore, we were quickly served our eggplant parmigiana and an egg frittata, which were both delicate, light and tasty. Our main dishes showed up shortly after we finished the first course and since this was our first visit we decided to order a couple of Roman classics. The Spaghetti alla Carbonara was amazing, with a pervasive taste of the guanciale in every bite. The other was their signature dish, Cacio e Pepe, which I ordered because of my recent obsession with Tonnarelli. When they showed up at the table, I was a little surprised because it looked like the cheese was just dumped on the bowl, but I quickly realized that this was because they did a tableside mixing of the dish, which I loved. This was the best Cacio e Pepe I've eaten in Rome and the Tonnarelli was amazing.We hadn't planned on having dessert here, but due to the quality of the antipasti and main dishes, as well as what we saw coming out of the kitchen, we decided to stay for the dolci. Another great choice because the Tiramisรน and the Black Forest cake were definitely worth staying for. It turns out Mr. Farinetti was right and you should definitely check out this fantastic Testaccio destination for lunch or dinner.
Be the first to ReplyNot often do I write reviews but I felt I needed to share
Not often do I write reviews but I felt I needed to share this. I researched all the best restaurants in Rome and surprisingly this was highly rated. I was sorely disappointed. Avoid this place. I did thing the pasta was good but avoid the meat. Our waiter convinced me that their lamb was their specialty. I don't usually order lamb in an Italian restaurant but he assured me it was excellent. This was one of the worst pieces of meat I have ever been served. It was the rib cage that was mostly fat with just a thin tendinous piece of meat. It also was the most expensive dish on the menu. My wife had the veal saltimbocca, this was dried out and in a most unappealing gelatinous sauce. The waiter then tried to push deserts. Finally when I payed my check, another waiter pressured me on tip. This is a restaurant that should be avoided, there are plenty of places with excellent pasta without the used car sales tactics. This is a tourist trap filled with Americans
Be the first to ReplyCall a few days ahead for reservation.
Definitely worth it. Average price for delicious traditional Italian food. Our table had starters then lamb, fish, pasta, then desserts too. Portion size is average/ not huge. Every thing is very rich, lots of flavor! ย Nice slow pace. One negative -Table was wobbly. Service staff very cheerful..
Be the first to ReplyI'm not one to start off negative, but.
....I simply cannot believe how many whine asses have posted on here about how they didn't get seated without a reservation. To top it all off, many of you act like restaurant gurus. Just because there are open seats doesn't mean they have enough prepared meals or staff to serve you! ย I'm often embarrassed to be an American in other countries because some of you can be so ugly. Throwing big fits because you didn't get seated without a reservation or, EGAD!, local customers got preferential treatment over someone that is going to eat there maybe once.All that being said, we called at 645pm to see if they had any seats left tonight and they said we could be seated at 730. Yep. That's early by Italian standards but I was happy they agreed to seat us.When we got there, we were seated outside. Inside seemed almost exclusively for locals, and they were packed very early! Still, the staff was attentive and polite. We went for all the normal dishes: The Monday app was stuffed zucchini and we split it. We also split a Cachio e Pepe. Wife had steak. I had the Lamb. Everything was extremely good. Paired with a wonderful local red for 26 euros, and Cappuccinos after, the meal came in right at 100 euros for two, which I thought reasonable for the amount of food we had. ย Certainly worth it for the how well made the food was.Perhaps some day I'll call ahead far enough to get inside! Haha.
Be the first to ReplyVery disappointing.
Food was over cooked, some dishes cold, low quality ingredients were obvious. Staff argued with us when we complained about the quality. Don't go.
Be the first to ReplyI had seen a travel vlog of Rome and this restaurant was
I had seen a travel vlog of Rome and this restaurant was featured in it. I knew once I saw that vlog I HAD to try Felice on my first night in Rome! Based on reviews, I knew I would either have luck getting a table or get turned away so I reached out to the hotel we stayed at and they were kind enough to book us a reservation for 9:00 pm. We arrived at 8:00 pm and they very kindly seated us promptly. I ordered the famous cacio e pepe and it was everything I dreamed about for a month before my trip to Rome! Just delicious and when paired with the bottle of wine they suggested, even more delicious!! I also sampled my husband's carbonara and my stepdaughter's ravioli (all fresh made pasta bursting with intense flavor!) NOTHING disappointed! Felice is a must try while in Rome, I 110% recommend this restaurant to anyone and first time visitors to Rome like myself.
Be the first to ReplyWell known for its refined versions of humble Roman
Well known for its refined versions of humble Roman classics, Felice a Testaccio has been serving the Testaccio district since 1936, and with reservation offered by phone only the clientele remains largely Italian while service is professional and deliberate.Located at Via Mastro Giorgio 29, with bare-brick walls and subdued colors not dissimilar from other Trattoria throughout the Eternal City, it is shortly after 19h00 that diners are confirmed by paper ledger, seating across three tightly packed rooms soon to follow.Not unknown to tourists, high marks on TripAdvisor seeing at least three tables in the first dining area home to English speakers, menus with translation suggest a wide-range of traditional plates, with staff more than happy to up-sell more pricey dishes such as Lamb, good bottles of Wine and side dishes such as the admittedly impressive Artichokes alla Romana.Also with a location in Milan, both Restaurants offering daily specials and good value, it is under the same family's ownership that Felice a Testaccio has operated for over eighty years, a lengthy wait for Bread soon followed by Cacio e Pepe mixed tableside into a thick and creamy consistency while al dente straws of Bucatini held an ideal amount of Tomato Sauce, Pork Cheek and Pepper.Opting for a third Pasta alongside thinly pounded Veal draped in Ham, the Sauce imbued with Sage helping to tame a significant amount of Salt, those seeking Rome's best Carbonara will definitely wish to compare Felice a Testaccio with Roscioli while the Restaurant's version of Tiramisu takes a slightly different approach than others without much Flour or Sugar but plenty of creamy Custard, Bittersweet Chocolate and Coffee.
Be the first to ReplyDelicious food, a little pricey compared to the rest of
Delicious food, a little pricey compared to the rest of Rome, but I think the experience is food. More well known so it can be hard to get recommendation (Call ahead). Cacio e pepe and carbonara are their classic dishes. Try the carciufo alla romana (non-fried carciufo as fried is mostly what you'll find in Rome) and the chicory dish with anchovy (delicious).
Be the first to ReplyThis review is long overdue and after my second,
This review is long overdue and after my second, unintentional experience, I felt it was time. I don't like writing a bad reviews because it's a waste of energy but people need to know how awful this place is and how horribly they treat tourists. The first time I tried eating here was a couple of years ago with reservation. I was traveling alone at the time and had heard this place was good so decided to get dressed up and treat myself to a nice dinner. I got to the restaurant and was turned away immediately in the worst way by this awful, disheveled looking woman who basically shamed me for being by myself. No table for one she said, we are too busy, even though I had a reservation and the restaurant was not full. I went back to Rome a couple of weeks ago with my mom and forgot about this place. Our hotel recommended it and made a reservation for us. When our taxi pulled up, I remembered this was the place I got turned away from a couple of years back. My mom and I went in and the same woman again, looked us up and down and turned us away saying that she doesn't see our reservation and they are too busy, no table. She was so incredibly rude and was so bothered that we even had the nerve to enter her establishment. I was so upset because it was also my birthday dinner. I may not be carrying a Louis Vuitton but I'm a conservatively, well dressed, tall and respectful woman and so is my mother. This place made us feel so terrible. We ended up at a different restaurant around the corner that was happy to seat us and take our business. I love Italy and I visit often and the people are lovely. Avoid this place if you want to keep your pleasant thoughts of Italy. There are so many wonderful restaurants as well that want you to enjoy the culture and their food. Hope this helps!
Be the first to ReplyGot denied service because we are tourists.
I would save you money and go to the place called Flavio al Velavevodetto on the block. We walked there after a got denied service with lots of emptied tables. The other place has similar food and great reviews!
