I went with a group of 4. I reserved in advance and had a round and nice table. Atmosphere is really nice: quiet, cozy, clean. Tables have a good distance btw them. Food was very good. Portions small/medium size, ok for me (average women portion). Meals have 2 sizes small or principal/big. We all ordered the principal big. Top 1 we tried: Carbonara. Service was excellent. Fast, kind and respectful.

Bucatini with shrimps there were literally 2 shrimps! The restaurant was not fool, but we were waiting for food more then 1.5 hour.

I was pretty impressed that there was only one waiter serving all tables. He was pretty efficient but impossible to get to all tables on time. One of the dishes we ordered was pasta amatriciana. I am used to eat it in Rome and this was not quite the same. I also found pasta a bit undercook. Then, it took so long to come for the dessert that I decided to order the bill.
