I cinque scalini — Restaurant in Fiumicino

A terrible experience eating there, I would not recommend. Incapable of getting the order right, we asked for 4 drinks, and only 2 arrived, we had to ask for the 2 missing drinks when we noticed it was not coming. Then, everyone on the table was served with the food except one of us, we mentioned 5min later that it was missing, which seems like they forgot doing it in the kitchen but nothing was communicated back to us, but it seemed liked it from the interaction in the kitchen, then everyone finished their dishes and I was still waiting for mine still 15min later.

We tried to show the “cockroaches” to our waitress, she...

I visited this place quite randomly and I met some locals which had great fun on karaoke which made me enjoy my visit there much, much more. I had some pizza which met my expectations (that weren't very high tho), had some local beer (perfect).

Service is very kind but you need to speak Italian which is not surprising - I manage to communicate with translator just fine! It looks like it's one of best restaurants around if you're looking for quick pizza or pasta, you also can get seafood which looks great but I haven't tried it, so take my short comment with a grain of salt.

Had a great time here (mostly because of karaoke, but food was good too - I also got appetizer, which was a fried rice ball) visit recommend if...
