Il Matriciano®️

A must-visit during your Rome adventures! This incredible family-owned restaurant with a 100 year tradition, located near the Vatican, surprised us in many ways. First the staff - we went twice during our short visit and both times we received impeccable service and had a lot of fun too! Everyone was helpful, polite and threw in a good joke here and there. The food was amazing honestly, we’ve tried different things each time but all of it was memorable. Bresaola is a must! All the food was delicious in its simplicity. It’s also very reasonably priced. Both times we went there during lunch and on the weekend, first time we were lucky with a table outside, but second time it was all booked up so if you’d like to ensure you sit outside, it’s best to make a reservation. Honestly I can’t wait to be back next time I visit Rome!

This was disappointing. Melanzane without melanzane. A very grey vegetable stew. Grilled lambchops that were porkchops in a crust. Saltimboca that could blow of the plate if the window was open. Ice with large icecrust because it was made the week before and tiramisu from the factory. On top of that dirty toilets. It is a touristtrap.

Food was pretty good but nothing special. A little pricey and the service was decently long.

Manuel is a great waiter, he suggested us unforgettable dishes and we spent a great experience. We then came for a second time! Unforgettable

Absolute recommendation! We had several starters, Roman style oxtail and Danish ribeye steak with mixed salad. Both were delicious and very good combination with house red wine. Finished with very tasty crème brûlée. Service was amazing as well the ambience. We’ll get back for sure.

Me and my partner came here twice on our holiday. Both times the service was absolutely incredible and made the night each time. The Roman Chicken with Peppers is really great, and a really strong carbonara dish as well. It was where we went on our last night and the evening felt really special. Massive thank you to the wait staff, a genuine delight to talk to.

For anyone who knows something about Italian food, this place is a gem. The absolute best artichoke Romana I’ve ever had, wonderful pastas, and wild strawberries in the summer. Service is impeccable.

Family owned restaurant in Prati, the atmosphere is quite relaxed and they make you feel at home (we went on a Tuesday night). The fried artichoke was sublime, as well as the gricia. A special mention to the lamb, wonderful! Highly recommended if you want to escape the city centre and avoid places which are too touristy.
