EMME Restaurant — Restaurant in Rome

Lovely restaurant off the beaten path, perfect for a more intimate dinner or a special occasion and somewhere to dress up for. Service started off well with menus being handed out promptly and drinks orders taken, however, it quickly went down hill once the restaurant got a little busier. Wine was not topped up and bottle was not left with us for us to help ourselves, salad ordered with main was bought out way after mains had been eaten, drinks ordered that didn't show up and we had to re order... we began to almost feel neglected, waiters were walking past our table but not checking in and instead tending to other guests. The table was half tidied away after dinner and left like this for ages until we had to call someone over, we were also not given dessert menus and had to help ourselves. The bill was also incorrect, however, the restaurant did rectify this and honor the fact we had received a poor customer service. Food was really lovely here and it is a beautiful setting, however, it was a disappointment for our last dinner in Rome. The anti pasti starters were very small for the price they were, they really are more suited to one person each than sharers. With high expectations for an up market restaurant, we had better service at more casual...

Where do I begin with so much good things to say about my experience at Emme! We had two group dinners in the private garden and the planning of the two of them was great!! Barbara and Betty handled everything with such a high level of service and were so accommodating!! The entire group were treated as if they were attending a beautiful family dinner with amazingly delicious food all around from the starters to the desserts, service and timing was all so wonderfully executed, an Event Planners wish come true! They are located in such a charming area, Via Margutta, that reminds you that you are in Rome. Such wonderful ambience with glamor and elegance. I’ve had dinner there 3 times and everything I’ve eaten has been delicious! The best part is that I’ve now made life long friends with Barbara and Betty. Barbara has so much Rome history knowledge and experience in wonderful concierge service. They both set the bar high all around! Bravo bravo bravo 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼!!! ❤️😊 Thank you, thank you, thank you!! Until the next time, you can...

4 luglio 22, in occasione del compleanno di mia moglie, ci siamo "concessi" una cena in questa interessante location, in via Margutta 19, in zona Piazza di Spagna. Innanzitutto, mi permetto di consigliare di raggiungere il posto utilizzando la metro A, con uscita "Piazza di Spagna", poi 5 minuti a piedi e si giunge al ristorante. Tornando alla location, la stessa si trova al pian terreno di un albergo, con ingresso sempre in via Margutta. L'ambiente è elegante, un pò intimo, suggestivo, ben curato. Servizi igienici impeccabili, con prodotti di qualità. Abbiamo preferito di sederci all'esterno, sala giardino, poiché eravamo circondati da verde e non una zanzara ad infastidirci. Abbiamo mangiato: un ottimo antipasto composto da "2 ostriche, 3 gamberi rossi, sashimi di tonno, 2 fettine di salmone, 3 scampi, con un pò di menta che inevitabilmente ha coperto il sapore principale"; 1 "spaghetto emme" (con pomodorino piennolo del Vesuvio, tarallo al finocchio e peperone crusco Lucano); 1 "calamarata cacio e pepe" (ottimo e ben abbinati il calamaro e la pasta con cacio e pepe); 1 contorno di "asparagi"; 1 "tartare di manzo" (con carne chianina con olio extra vergine bio su pan brioche al burro francese e chutney di pomodoro); 1 "tartare di tonno" (con emulsione di fichi d’India e arancia); 1 contorno "cicoria romana"; pane con glutine (misto pizza e fettine di pane); 3 panini imbustati e riscaldati "gluten free". Abbiamo bevuto 3 coppe di vino; 2 acqua (liscia e gasata, in bottiglie servite senza tappo). Con lo sconto del "20% con The fork" abbiamo pagato €158. Tutto ciò che abbiamo mangiato è stato molto gustoso con sapori netti e indubbiamente riconoscibili (tranne, come ho già detto, nell'antipasto ove la menta ha nascosto un pò qualche sapore del pesce), ben cotto, ben impiattato. Il servizio, a cura di 2 camerieri, é stato cortese e professionale. Ho messo una stella in meno, in quanto, dopo aver mangiato il primo piatto, ho atteso, invano, qualche minuto per chiedere-avere un piatto pulito per poter mangiare parte dell'antipasto, che abbiamo diviso tra di noi. In assenza, ho mangiato nel piatto che avevo utilizzato prima. Peccato,...
