Seared octopus, potato purée, truffle mayo
Seared octopus on silky purée, with truffle mayonnaise. A house classic.
A traditional Roman osteria in San Lorenzo since 1961: carbonara, cacio e pepe, amatriciana, oxtail stew and Roman-style tripe. Authentic Roman cooking, made in front of you and served without hurry, at Via dei Campani 12.
Since 1961 our Roman osteria has opened the door the way you do at home: wooden tables, warm light, red wine that arrives in a carafe. In San Lorenzo, in the heart of Rome, the neighbourhood sits down, talks, and stays a little longer than planned.
Carbonara, cacio e pepe, amatriciana, tripe and seasonal fish and vegetable dishes: a few of the plates that left our kitchen in recent weeks. The menu changes daily: in the dining room we'll tell you what's on today.
Allergies or intolerances? Tell whoever takes your order and we will take care of it.
