Papa Rex Dal 1991 - Rome

We had several meals at Papa Rex, while we were in Rome. We received excellent service from all staff. We enjoyed the leisurely pace of our meals, Excellent house wine both white and red. Great attention to the fresh preparation and presentation of each course. From Antipasti to Dessert, Pictured is the Salmon with roasted vegetables. The flavors were amazing. Everything perfectly prepared and served. We felt the prices were fair. We highly recommend Papa Rex Ristoranta,

We had lunch here after the visit to the Vatican (it’s not really that close, about 15 minute walk). We ordered: The grilled octopus: decent price, well cooked The schnitzel: not very big, it was a bit rough to cut and eat. Grilled vegetables: aubergine was undercooked, the bell pepper was a bit cold and burned and the zucchini was just ok. We also ordered a water, all this came to €36, no coperto was charged. What I need to point out, is that the service was just terrible, when taking our order, the waiter told me to give him a second to write down (the 3 things we asked for) in a very aggressive manner. The we asked for salt, he gave it to another table and when we pointed this out he stomped it in our table. We did not feel like asking him for anything more at this point and opted for other servers. Around the restaurant we could also see that things were not going well, on one table the got the order wrong 4 times, on another they brought the wrong dish, when the person pointed this out they did not receive and apology and a correction, but he was confronted and told that was what he ordered and they brought the menu so he point out what he wanted, then they fixed the mistake. The food was fine, but with the service they offer, I would not recommend this restaurant.

It's not bad, the cacio e pepe I had was a little more watery than creamy but the seafood pasta that my wife had was fantastic.

Food was pretty good, nothing too great, wait times were decent, prices are decent, but we had a really bad experience with the waiter, who after 2 of the 4 of us didn 't want a drink, just food, decided to have a pretty arrogant attitude, constantly sighing while delivering our plates, and after we payed the bill, told us that the tip was cash only. Of course there was no room for tip with such attitude. After we left I saw him on through the windows waving towards us in frustration, probably dissapointed that we didn 't leave a tip for his great service.

Very delicious past and super professional and friendly services. The place is huge and has two floors, but I am the best place to sit outside
