Magus Bistro — Restaurant in Rome

My partner and I recently dined at Magus Bistro in Rome, and it was an absolutely delightful experience. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and genuine hospitality that set the tone for the evening.

We ordered pizzas and french fries, and both were simply exceptional. The pizzas were a perfect blend of traditional Italian flavors with a crisp, wood-fired crust that was just the right balance of chewy and crispy. Each bite was a burst of freshness, with high-quality ingredients that clearly reflected the care put into crafting these dishes. The mozzarella was creamy, the tomatoes were bursting with flavor, and the toppings were generous without being overwhelming.

The french fries were a wonderful surprise—crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and seasoned to perfection. They were the ideal complement to the pizzas, and we couldn’t stop reaching for more.

Beyond the food, the ambiance of Magus Bistro is what truly sets it apart. The cozy, yet elegant atmosphere made our dining experience even more special. The service was impeccable, with the staff being attentive, friendly, and more than willing to provide recommendations. They made us feel like we were the only guests in the restaurant, even though it was pleasantly busy.

Overall, Magus Bistro exceeded our expectations in every way. It’s a gem in the heart of Rome, and we can’t wait to return on our next visit to the city. If you’re looking for a place that offers incredible food, a welcoming atmosphere, and top-notch service, look no further than Magus Bistro. Highly recommended!

[Stay away, it's a tourist trap] We arrived at 8:30 PM. The waiter came to take our orders at 9 PM. The beers arrived after half an hour, but the pizzas took more than an hour and a half to arrive—for my friends, but not for me.

I asked several times about my pizza and if they had checked the order, as I had been waiting for over an hour and a half. I kept getting the same response: "It's coming, don't worry." At 11 PM, I found out they had forgotten to make it. They started blaming each other. It felt like a comedy movie, not a restaurant.

Given the ridiculous situation, I decided to leave and eat somewhere else after waiting for two and a half hours. It was probably better to stay hungry because, according to my friends, the food was so bad that even pets wouldn't eat it.

But what can you expect from a "bistro" restaurant that takes orders on a notepad, where the supposed manager treats the waiters horribly, making them rush from table to table without checking if the customers are happy with their food?

This is just one of many tourist trap places that only aim to rip off customers.

To readers: I strongly advise to avoid this place. There are hundreds of great restaurants at Campo de' Fiori, search better on maps.

To Magus Bistro: do something else, as the restaurant business is...

I would review the restaurant but I couldn’t even get in. I was with my friends for a birthday and I wanted to buy a round of shots at the bar for him to celebrate. Before I could get into the bar, I got pulled away by the shirt, grabbed and man handled. He said “this bar is not for you” this was the first time I had ever talked to this man. He said “you have three seconds to leave” so I just walked away thinking I could get shots elsewhere. He counted down and as I had my back turned walking away, he grabbed me, pulled my shoulder so I was facing him, and punched me in the left eye. When this happened, about 15 other guys came out of the restaurant so I could not fight back no matter how many of my friends were there. I was polite the entire time, never showed disrespect, left when I was told to leave. When they saw me recording they got all their guys to not look at me because they didn’t want it on camera. It is honestly disgusting how I was treated. Waking up with a black eye is far from what I thought would happen celebrating my friends birthday. NEVER GO HERE. DO NOT GIVE THEM...
