Came across this restaurant while searching for a place to eat near the Colleseum late at night. This was one of the few places that had good reviews and were open late at night. One cannot take the Google rating of restaurants in Rome at face value. I’ve come across plenty which are rated 4.5+ by tens of thousands of people which deserve less than 4 stars in reality. I was afraid this was also in this category, but I still decided to eat here due to the limited open options in the vicinity. And boy, I am ever so happy for that leap of faith in times of desperation. My spouse and I shared a Napoleon pizza which was perfectly baked in a wood fired oven, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The mozeralla cheese used in the pizza was of great quality which made for a delicious pizza, even in the absence of any sauce (nor white nor red). The pizza was gulped up within a few minutes. Of all the desserts, the tiramisu is the only one made in-house which led me to order it. I was once again pleasantly surprised. The tiramisu had a creamy silky smooth texture and had the right amount of sweetness. The ladyfinger’s texture complimented the creamy tiramisu perfectly. Along with the cocoa dusting, the 3 made for a pleasant dessert and pushes this tiramisu to be the best I’ve had in Italy. Would happily recommend this place to everyone and anyone. The service was great, food was delicious and appropriately priced, even after being situated in such a touristy location.

**The Food:** This restaurant offers some of the finest Italian pizza you can find in Rome, at a very affordable price. The Pizza is crafted with the utmost attention to detail. The pizza is made using fresh, natural ingredients, and the traditional "forno a legna" (wood-fired oven) technique imparts a depth of flavor that is simply exquisite. The presentation is equally impressive, with each pizza arriving at the table as a visual delight—perfect for capturing that Instagram-worthy shot. **The Service:** The service here is exceptional, with a staff that is both attentive and genuinely friendly. They excel at guiding indecisive diners through the menu, offering thoughtful recommendations to ensure you enjoy the best possible meal. A special mention must be made of Aurelio, a standout waiter whose expertise and warm hospitality elevate the dining experience to another level. **The Atmosphere:** The restaurant's decor is beautifully executed, with a soothing blue palette that creates a relaxing ambiance—ideal for enjoying a leisurely meal. The space is thoughtfully adorned with Italian memorabilia and decorative plants, adding a touch of authenticity and charm. The restaurant is also equipped with air conditioning, making it a perfect retreat during Rome's sweltering summer days.

Excited to try this restaurant per the reviews. We were seated immediately (coming out of the pouring rain) which was nice. Took awhile for anyone to touch the table. Noticed that it wasn't overly busy that evening. A gentleman finally took our drink order and we waited for our server to finally arrive. We gave her ( pictured) our order & literally never saw her again. Decided to add to our order and had to flag down someone to assist us as she was no where to be seen. We tried the Santa Barbara pizza and the carbonara pasta with tomato. The pasta was the best I've had!! I wish I had an extra order of it to take home. The pizza was ok. A bit difficult to eat as it was wet and thin.Crust was good. Did not try the desserts although everything looked delicious. Service here was horrible. Had to leave over random servers for to go boxes and then someone else for our check. The hostess who finally brought the check looked irritated to be bothered by us. No smiles and not a friendly atmosphere here. Overall food was good but would not return and would not recommend as part of a great dining experience is ruined with poor service ,even if the food is good! Maybe takeout would be better.

Really beautiful aesthetic here! Definitely did not expect that from looking at it on the outside but absolutely locked at the moment we stepped in. Supplì - We really wanted to try this after proper street food place but this was the last night in Rome so had to get it here. Actually delicious! Crispy on the outside and lot of flavor. Cacio e Pepe - Simple but tasty. Just the right amount of cheese and pasta was cooked well too. O' VESUVIUS (Tomato sauce, buffalo mozzarella, spicy salami, pecorino cheese, ricotta-filled crust) The spicy salami was amazing! Really love the creative Ricotta stuffed crust as well. I think that's what made the crust edible cuz otherwise it was quite thick. Salmon And Truffle Pizza (Mozzarella, smoked salmon, yellow tomato, burrata, truffle flakes) We were hoping the burrata would actually be more creamy on the inside, but after cutting it up and distributing it on the pieces it went really well with the salmon. A great idea for breakfast as well haha. Also got a Hazelnut Biscoff layered dessert from the display to share. Everyone seemed to enjoy it.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Pizza Forum restaurant - near Coliseum, and it was an incredible experience! The ambiance was warm and inviting, and every detail was thoughtfully curated to create a wonderful dining atmosphere. The food was outstanding — each dish was beautifully presented, fresh, and packed with flavor. It’s clear that the kitchen takes pride in using quality ingredients and putting care into every plate. I can’t wait to come back and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a memorable meal! In addition, I’d also like to give special recognition to Yassi Ne who truly made our experience unforgettable. He went above and beyond to ensure we felt welcome and well taken care of. His recommendations were spot on, and he showed a genuine enthusiasm for the food and the restaurant. It’s rare to come across someone who is so attentive and personable, and it made our visit feel extra special. Thank you, Yassi Ne, for your outstanding service!

I had the pleasure of dining at this incredible Naples-themed restaurant near the Colosseum, and I must say—it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment I walked in, the warm and welcoming atmosphere set the tone for a fantastic meal. The food was absolutely delicious, bursting with authentic Neapolitan flavors. Every dish was crafted with care, from the perfectly charred pizza to the rich and flavorful pasta. You can truly taste the quality of the ingredients and the passion behind the cooking. The service was outstanding—attentive, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. A special shoutout to Aurelio, who took such good care of us and made the experience even more enjoyable. The staff preparing the pizzas were also so nice and friendly, adding to the warm and inviting atmosphere. If you’re looking for a place near the Colosseum that serves incredible Neapolitan cuisine with top-notch service, this is the spot. I can’t wait to return!
