You can see this is true Italian for the pizza was some of the best i have had in a long time. My wife had Ravioli Pasta and again you can see the flavouring was true Italian. The rest was also above average with fast service. The only not so nice was not so much Rome's fault was the Bistro across them had to much students and noisy. Enjoy when you get a chance

The atmosphere is perfect, it feels like you are sitting in a cobblestone street in Italy, perfectly situated in the hustle and bustle of the foodie strip of Stellenbosch (Church Street). Both ladies that served us were attentive, quick and friendly. Our drinks were cold and our food was hot. Food was quick and everything was beautifully balanced and flavoursome! We had a margherita to start and then the rigattoni bolognese and spaghetti alfredo. Will definitely be back again soon.

Delightful authentic restaurant in the mid of Stellenbosch. Friendly staff and the owner is present. Pasta and pizza prices very reasonable. read more Delightful authentic restaurant in the mid of Stellenbosch. Friendly staff and the owner is present. Pasta and pizza prices very reasonable.

The owner came over to chat with us, making it feel like we were actually in Rome. The food was truly exceptional. I had to order a pasta dish due to a power outage, and it did not disappoint. Sitting outside on the sidewalk added a distinctly European vibe to the experience, and the service was top-notch. I will definitely be returning with friends to share this wonderful find, likely on several occasions.
