I Dolci di Nonna Vincenza

There is something not quite right about the pistachio cannolo. The pastry that encases the filling curves in quickly from the middle, clearly too little pastry relative to the amount of filling, and the filling was very underwhelming - not quite sure how best to describe it but it was thin and not as creamy as past cannoli I’ve had - like very diluted ricotta cheese filling. It was also evident when some filling got onto the paper, you can see how translucent it is. True cannolo filling will be thick, and creamy, not translucent. Regretted getting the large one. Based on my experience, I wouldn’t come back again. But if you really want a cannolo in Rome, perhaps best to get a small one to sample first.

Excellent cannoli and coffee a little bit off the beaten track. Friendly staff and very reasonable prices. Ricotta cannoli was a winner!

A lovely place. A must if you wanna have some Sicilian pastries in Rome. I had a small cannolo with ricotta and a cake stuffed ricotta and powdered with a bit cinnamon. The flavors were very decadent and well balanced. The ricotta was delicate, not too sweet and the crust was crunchy and not too oily. The staff were very friendly and helpful. They prices are a bit pricy but totally worth it!

+ The atmosphere is cozy and authentic, creating a pleasant and inviting environment. + The food is genuinely delicious — well-prepared, flavorful. + Prices are also quite cheap, especially compared to other tourist-oriented spots in the area. + the owner/manager is very friendly and nice. - Service was disappointing: Billing errors: • Friend was charged for both her meal and mine • I was overcharged Tip: Always double-check your bill and ask for a receipt

Good coffee - intense and smooth. Nice cannoli, I got pistachio and original (ricotta). I couldn't taste the pistachio flavour but the original one was nice.

Quick service. Very affordable price. I tried fried rice ball which was quite good. The pistach canoli was not as flavored as other places.

Best cannolis we’ve had in all of Italy. They are just the right amount of sweet, filled through completely and always fresh!

I Dolci Di Nonna Vincenza located at Via Dell' Arco Del Monte. Here served Sicilian Pastries Dining area is spacious , clean and neat. Available indoor dining area only Cosy environtment and friendly staffs. Try Cannolli , Cassata Mignion Classica ,  Cassatella Di Agira & Chocolate ( mixed with ice cream ) All food are delicious 👍👍👍

Nonna Vincenza is doing it right! I was just walking through the neighborhood when this place caught my eye. As busy as it was, the staff was quick to ask if I needed help once I looked at the dessert display. And as soon as I said the word cappuccino, she already reached for the cup and got the order started. The dessert display pretty much has all the good Italian staples. I love pistachio so I had to go with the pistachio cannolo (and a classic for comparison) and a mini pistachio cassata cake. Both were such solid options for dessert without being too sweet. I'd definitely recommend if you're looking for some classic desserts or a coffee in the area.

Nice little bakery with a cute, nicely-decorated, air-conditioned dining area, recommended by fellow yelpers. Limited options, wished they had amaretto canoli. They also serve coffee. The staff was friendly. We got 3 different types of canolis to share, they were good & fresh, but not spectacular taste-wise.

Stopped here for dessert. We got cannolis - the cream was ricotta based. Perfect amount of salt and sweet. Price was reasonable. Staff was friendly. Will definitely come back.

So, it's important to note that this 5-star review is coming from someone without a sweettooth - someone who would much rather have a plate full of frites instead of a dessert. With that being said, the cannolo I had at Nonna Vincenza's was out of this world delicious. The pastry shell itself was so tasty, it almost didn't even need the cream...however, I'm so glad that it had the cream. It was a fantastic balance of sweet ricotta. You can tell that this an authentic Sicilian patisserie. Please do yourself a favor and stop in for a quick treat - you won't regret it!

OH MY GOD THANK YOU FOR GIVING ME LIFE SO I CAN TRY THIS CANNOLI. I can die now. MIGNON = SMALL and DELICATE. I lived in NYC for 9 years and thought I have had a good cannoli cuz well, it's full of Italians. But here, I realized I knew nothing. I didn't know a cannoli could be this life changing. I got the original (white) and also the pistachio mini cannoli to try. WOW. The casing was fresh, light, crisp yet hearty and the filling out of this world creamy, slightly sweet and also again so fresh. I am so glad I walked passed this place and decided to take a peek. Always. Take. A. Damn. Peek. You never know how that next bite will make your trip worthwhile.

Stopped by mid afternoon to try their cannolis. Saw there was one mini ricotta one left so got there, an espresso, and a chocolate dessert. The cannoli was definetly the best I've had. The filling was out of the world - so fresh and creamy, and the flavor was just perfect. Didn't know a cannoli could be this good. The shell was also light and crisp, perfectly balanced in proportion with the filling. It was so good that I stayed an extra hour for them to take fresh new ones out, and I got their pistachio next. However, the pistachio cream was less interesting and I didn't finish it. Finally, I ordered a pistachio granita, and I loved it! A perfect dessert on a summer day - very refreshing and light and full of actual pistachios. Has wonderful seating as well.

It's a great place to stop in and have a cappuccino and a croissant. You won't find any better in Rome. Mainly all locals here so you know it's good. Try a cannoli too while you're here.

We came here for coffee and hoping to try some cannoli. We ordered two caffe latte and two cannoli. The two women working noticed my wife and I were Muslim and they struggled to explain to us that there was pork products in the cannoli and asked us if it was ok. Even though their English wasn't fluent they still made the effort to respect us and our religion. Then when we said we wouldn't eat the cannoli they showed us all the items which did not have animal products. We ended up getting a croissant which was pretty good. The coffee and croissant were good, but I'm giving five stars because of how nice the workers were. I hope the workers read this so they know they are appreciated

Ok, so let's be clear that cannolis are NOT a Roman thing. However, my mom was craving some since this is an Italian-American dessert she is familiar with, so a quick Yelp search brought me here. There were several different pastries and cannoli flavors, and we ended up getting two to sample. You can also get different sizes so you can sample more! We got the original and an Americano and a cafe latte. Great afternoon pick me up. Seating is hard, as there are only a few tables, but I was able to snag one while my mom was ordering. Glad we got to stop by!

This a must have when in Rome. As a part of a food tour we stopped by here to taste their cannolis & it was the best thing ever!! I have never had a cannoli so amazing. There wasn't a long line because I believe not many tourists know about this place. I will never forget the taste of this cannoli

Rome is far from Sicily. But while in Rome and you're achin' for Sicilician authenticity, there are two branches of I Dolci di Nonna Vincenza (Grandma Vicenza's Desserts). I was craving a cannolo and pistachio dessert made with authentic Italian ricotta and mascarpone (Euro cheeses do not give me lactose problems and don't need pills), I was glad to find that my trusty Sicilian bakery still is open close to the Campo Dei Fiori area of Rome. If you're in for a quick coffee, there is a standup bar and next to it, is temptation case of many different kinds of cannoli, cassata, cookies. We were salivating. There are mini cannoli and cassatine to pacify a bite if you're coming in just to try it out. We ordered the mandorle (almond) and pistachio cannoli and the cherry and pistachio cassatine. All four were well made. So delish were they that we took some togo and came back another visit. The coffee was excellent. The products were authentic and the crispy texture of the cannolo shell is unforgettably good. Service was attentive and friendly. If you order items to go, they pack the items up for you really well. But then you're in Italy where everything looks classy, even the togo wrapping, LOL. Visits: Many Tip: There are tables if you wanna sit down and as with every restaurant/bar in Italy or France, if you sit down and use a table and chairs, there is an upcharge for dessert and coffee. If you're in a hurry, you can stand up by the bar and do a quick coffee and dessert as well for cheaper.

The cannolis were a hit in our group! Try every single one of them. I believe they even have a pistachio flavored one. They also have this lemon cake that was moist and soft. Paired with a cappuccino, it was the perfect midday break from being out and about sightseeing. The cappuccinos are made with great tasting coffee. Highly recommend this spot for a rest.

AMAZING! You must stop here on your trip to Rome. I was on a mission to find the perfect cannoli on my trip to Italy. This is the place. Not too sweet, perfect ricotta filling. The best. 10/10

A local recommended this place, and seriously, they serve the best breakfast croissants ever. I don't even like croissants much, as they're too greasy, but the croissants here were perfectly chewy, fluffy, and fresh. My mouth still waters thinking about them. The cannolis were nice also, but it was all about the croissants for me. I wish I knew about this place a few days earlier, so that I could've gone every morning. This place is about 10 minutes walking from the Trastevere area.

Although this was Rome, not Sicily, I really wanted a cannoli, so I did a quick Google search. This bakery came up so I decided to test it out. It's in a pretty touristy area and was easy to find. They have many different flavors of cannolis including mini ones. I got a mini pistachio cannoli. It was good, but not good enough for the price. I also think it could've used more pistachio flavor.

You've never had a Cannoli into you've had a Sicilian Jewish Cannoli. I took one bite & my eyes practically rolled to the back of my head. I was in heaven!!! I don't what they're feeding their animals in Sicily but that cream was like nothing I ever tasted. If you get the chance stop by here. You won't regret it!!!

Cannoli Heaven! We arrived in Rome and decided that we needed more in our dessert than just gelato. We found this place on a list as one of the best cannolis in Rome and boy am I glad we tried it. They have 2 sizes of cannolis, mini and regular. I suggest getting one of each of the small ones to share so you get to try all 5 flavors - ricotta, custard, lemon, chocolate, and pistachio. My favorite was the lemon, ricotta, and custard. My husband loved the pistachio, lemon, and ricotta. Each mini is only 1€, add in a cappuccino or espresso and you're still under 10€ total for 2, what a great deal for such delicious treats. They have other pastries and treats as well, but we were extremely satisfied with the cannolis and didn't try anything else, but we saw a lot of locals ordering other goods, which is a good sign. We ended up stopping in twice while we were in rome, which says how good these are. I highly recommend checking this place out!

By far the best cannoli I've ever had! The filling was just slightly, but perfectly sweet ricotta, and the shell was crisp and light. I hope to come back and try their other mouth watering offers!

Ok definitely had better canoli's. It's a cute shop that you can relax and enjoy. If you have the chance to see something else, I suggest you do.

One of my favorite places for breakfast/ pastries. If you're looking for fresh authentic Sicilian granita without having to travel to Sicily try Dolci di Nonna Vincenza. They are only one of the only places in Rome that I can find granita at and offer chocolate, almond, and my personal favorite pistachio. All of their pastries including croissants, cannolis and many other Italian desserts are made fresh and incredibly delicious.

I won't trivialize by saying best cannoli I've ever had because I'm so basic in comparison to this remarkable dessert. But it is indeed the best ever made. Stop on the street in your tracks best ever made. Don't miss out. Pistachio paled in comparison. Mini cannoli €1 each. Stay blessed.

3 C's that made this place 5 stars: Croissants, Cappuccino's, and Customer service. Need I say more?

Satisfy all your sweet tooth cravings here. Croissants, cannoli, marzipan fruit as well as wrapped desserts are cooked and presented beautifully. Pick up a treat for yourself or they provide lovely presents.

Great coffee and cannoli. Fresh and a welcome break during our walk through streets of Rome. One less star because the bathrooms were cramped and not so clean.

Discovered on our last day in Rome. Wish we found it in our first. Filled with locals, you can tell this is a popular place for many reasons. I wish we grabbed a cake....can't stop thinking about them.

Great spot for a coffee and croissant -- they have ricotta filled croissants for some extra protein of several flavors. Very filling!! We had two visits on different days, and different staff was friendly to obvious tourists like us.
