Al Peperoncino — Restaurant in Rome

We were looking for a restaurant for dinner that is not a tourist trap but a genuinely good experience and this is it! We went there and had the best Carbonara of our lives. Our starter was Buffalo Mozzarella with ham and it was also just great. The prices are very reasonable for a establishment like this in Rome.

A special note should be made about the service: It was, without a doubt, the best and friendliest service I've ever experienced. Huge shoutout to our waiter Ervis! That man went above and beyond for us.

We had such a good time that we decided do go back the next evening for another dinner. It was simply so good and I cannot recommend this...

The absolute worst restaurant I have ever been to. I came inside the restaurant with my mother and spoke English with the staff. In return I received a smarky remark from the staff like ohhhh English (I'm like huh?). The waiter was unbelievably rude, it was like I was watching a comedy. I asked him if he speaks English, he says yes and continues in Italian when we don't understand a word. He put our food at the corner of the table and pressured us into ordering. What a joke.

How is the food? Burnt. I do not reccomend this place. Oh and I also forgot, the bill had €2 of servicecosts. Not a mention of that at all from the start. Do yourself a favor...

Al Peperoncino is ultra-authentic — a true taste of Roman cuisine. The pizzas are outstanding: their Roman-style thin crusts are just perfect, and the funghi pizza was unbelievably delicious 😍. We also tried the crocchette di melanzane e mozzarella and olive ascolane — both were absolutely amazing! Everything was beautifully cooked and full of flavor.

After almost 20 hours and three flights, this was my very first meal in Rome, and I couldn’t have chosen a better place 😍. Perfect food, authentic atmosphere, and wonderful service. Highly recommended to everyone craving real...
