I am picky with roman dishes so this goes a long way.. Bucatini Cacio e Pepe was beautifully done -> balanced black pepper and cheese.
Olive Oil Cake light and good served with jam.
Can't wait to try their other dishes.

Ordered Group Dinner (9+) and my only complaint is the portion size. I thought it was for a group, but this is truly a one person meal. I'm confused. But everything is tasty. The Cesar salad is ok. Wish it was dressed more between the layers of the wedge. The lumache sauce is perfect. Wish I had parm on the side to sprinkle on top. And the olive oil cake is slightly over baked but still good. Everything tasted fresh and I would order again.

Bucatini Cacio e Pepe lacks salt. Or even just any cacio! Group Dinner (9+) is not for 9+ people. Small portions maybe for two to share but realistically, just one person. Lumache was delicious. Tiramisu also divine. And the burrata salad was great. Will order again.

The food was good but I've honestly never seen a place give such small portions. You can finish your entire pasta dish in 5 bites.
