I Porchettoni A San Lorenzo - Roma

Ended up in this restaurant completely by chance, and that was one very lucky pick!! The food was absolutely top notch, a great example of the local cuisine and the service was great. I had a fantastic evening here.

We came for lunch based on recommendations. This is a restaurant that the locals come to and for good reason. The food is just really good. The ambiance is nice the service is good but we would make a point to go back for the food. It's a bit out of the way but very worth the trip!

My first time having porchetta and it was superb. Our first course of pasta I had a special with pork sausage and truffle fettuccini, s/o had pepper and pecorino pasta was delightful. Excellent balance of flavors, I found myself savoring every bite. Second course of sliced steak and arugula was tender, juicy, and perfectly spiced. Dessert of panna cotta and tiramisu was also fantastic. Staff was friendly and welcoming, we felt at home. We were only one of three tables that night, but it was epiphany so perhaps that's why? Overall, simply a wonderful experience.

Small cozy place with very polite staff and amazing food. We ordered a Carbonara and Fettuccini with mushrooms and they were both absolutely delicious! Also close to the Tiburtina station, so a good place to stop by if traveling to/from there.

I didn 't know this was a famous place that featured on TV, I just passed in the morning by and saw the picture of the roasted piglet in the window so I decided to come back in the evening. I had had only mediocre pochettas in the past so I wasn 't to keen on trying it again but since the restaurant had it in its name i was like why not? Good I did : Their porchetta was beautiful, a truly memorable experience, lovely tender meat and crispy skin with excellent flavouring. The other dishes we had (pasta and tripe were also proper good but cannot beat the porchetta. The waiters spoke English and were very attentive. The prices were not higher than anywhere else in the neighborhood. We were lucky as we arrived early but book your table in advance as the place fills up quite quickly!
