DELICIOUS!!! off the beaten path. Close to Roma Termini and Colosseum part of town! The most delicious pasta dishes! The Carbonara&hellip;.(chef&rsquo;s kiss) and their Pomodorella (spicy pomodoro) out of this world&hellip;let&rsquo;s not forget the tiramisu that was unlike any other I&rsquo;ve ever tasted. This is a little hidden gem and well worth a visit! We went twice during our visit to Rome. Super friendly staff as well! Mauricio was so nice and funny, really made our night!

Great staff, very knowledgeable about their menu. Very friendly, the owner came over and chatted with us. Best restaurant I&#39;ve been to in Rome. Great experience.

Lovely restaurant with even lovelier food and people. You must try anything that has tomato/tomato sauce at this place, it is scrumptious. The carbonara is the best at the Esquilino area and it shows. Try the pannacotta! Bacci from Portugal

The service was phenomenal. Menus were in English, but when we said we wanted to practice our Italian, the wait staff accommodated us.  the artichokes Romano were decent in

Thank you so much for serving wonderful foods! Moreover, the atmosphere and staffs are much  nicer than we thought. We&rsquo;ll recommend you to everyone who&rsquo;s going to Rome. Thank you again.

Everything about this restaurant is perfect. The friendliness of the staff, the ambiance and most of all the food. We focused on the seafood but there was also a nice offering of classic Roman dishes. The grilled octopus, seafood pasta and seafood risotto were among the best meals we&rsquo;ve had during our 2 weeks in Rome. A must stop if you&rsquo;re anywhere near Basilica of San Giovanni in Laterano but also worth a trip even if you are not.

This Indian restaurant was incredibly delicious!!! We had made a reservation, but when we arrived, there were no other customers, and the atmosphere felt a bit off, so we considered leaving. However, it seemed the owner was waiting for us since we had a reservation, so we decided to stay. At first, the owner was somewhat curt, but as we talked more, we discovered a playful side to him. We initially ordered just a little food, but it was so good that we ended up ordering a lot more. Family of 3, we had Chicken curry, King prown briyani, Chicken tandoori, plain naan and cheese naan, and were enough for us.Although the location isn&rsquo;t the best, I highly recommend this restaurant.

The scones here are very good. Unlike pizza, the scones here are rich in fillings and are cut into small pieces.

The dishes are very authentic and you can see the Colosseum outdoors.

Thank you Federico for the discovery of your meat philosophy. We really appreciated the restaurant, the food, your suggestions, the vibes and our conversation. We highly recommend anyone that wants to taste the best meats in the world (wagyu) to go at Sarkos. - Samuel
