Bella Napoli NEAR VATICAN Wood fired Oven — Restaurant in Rome

I had mezze maniche alla amatriciana, and unfortunately, it was neither aromatic, nor spicy, nor even slightly salty. I had the impression that low-quality ingredients were used. The salad was completely tasteless, and the cherry tomatoes weren’t sweet. But the best part was the waiter’s reaction — he seemed offended that I dared to criticize the dish.

It was also a very unpleasant experience, and I didn’t feel quite safe.

The restaurant’s response speaks for itself: “Customer, you don’t know Italian cuisine, so don’t profane it with your comments.” The waiter threatens you with the chef, and when the staff asks how you liked the dish, don’t dare answer honestly — that’s not how the game works.

I don’t even know where to start. I ordered a dish that was supposed to have shrimp, but there were no shrimp at all — just a sad pile of random mussels and chewy tentacles that tasted like rubber. Everything looked like it had just been thrown onto the plate without a single thought or care.

The texture was awful, the flavor was worse, and honestly, I couldn’t even finish it. If this is their idea of seafood, I’d rather eat instant noodles at home. Just terrible from start to finish!

Avoid this place if you value your stomach or your sanity. Aaa one more i said everything to the chef and he was very impolite!!! Not even an apology came out of their mouths. I’ve been to many restaurants in Rome, but I’ve never experienced such unprofessional...
