Fodor's Review:
Just off Piazza Barberini sits this Tuscan-accented upscale trattoria known for years among the international business set as well as the entertainment industry. The decor is basic wood paneling and white linens, with the requisite older -- and often grumpy -- waiters. The menu is heavy on Tuscan classics such as ribollita (a bread-based minestrone soup), white beans, and the famed bistecca alla fiorentina, a carnivore's dream. Meat dishes other than beef, such as lamb and veal, are also dependably good. The homemade pappardelle al cinghiale (wide, flat noodles in a tomato and wild boar sauce) are delectable. And fresh seafood is also offered in abundance, as well as a few key Roman dishes and greens like brocoletti, sauteéd to perfection with garlic and olive oil. The wine list favors robust Tuscan reds and thick wallets.

Check your bill
Posted by mscarls from San Diego on 6/15/08
Yes, we were put on the Anglo side, too. The food was fine but not outstanding. However, when we received our bill, I checked the addition and found an 11 Euro mistake (on what should have been an 88 Euro bill for 2). I might believe that having an error in one column was an accident -- but not in both columns. Maybe it was my imagination, but I thought the waiter looked guilty and annoyed when I had him correct the bill. The only good thing was that I was quite happy to depart without leaving a tip (not counting the attrocious but typical bread and butter charge).
