Orma Roma — Restaurant in Rome

Dining here was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The food was nothing short of extraordinary—every dish was meticulously crafted and thoughtfully presented, showcasing a perfect blend of flavors with a twist. You truly have to appreciate fine cuisine to understand the depth and complexity of each dish's flavors.

It's no surprise that Orma Roma has been awarded a Michelin star, which is entirely justified.

The staff, Simone and Lorenzo, among others, were incredibly welcoming and attentive. Their warm hospitality and professionalism made us feel right at home and truly enhanced our dining experience. The chef was remarkably humble and him introducing one of the dish and preparing it in front of you added a personal touch that made the evening even more special.

We enjoyed a lovely lunch with the bistro menu on the well-shaded terrace after touring at the Borghese which was only a 10-minute walk from here. The staff were very friendly and chatty and made us feel welcome. The food quality was excellent and excellent value for a luxury experience. We were two adults and one child. Between us we shared three starters, a couple of oysters each, two mains, and three desserts, and we left feeling comfortably full, not overly heavy. There was also additional bread and a very tasty olive oil that was given us at the start of the meal which we enjoyed. The selection of wines by the glass was excellent (and looking at the rest of the bottle list this looked excellent also), and we were given good recommendations on tasting notes for these by our server. My only surprise is that it wasn't busier while we were there as we practically had the whole terrace to ourselves, but we enjoyed feeling like...

A nice experience in a Michelin star restaurant, with a heavy Latin American influence. But TLDR I'd say they focused too much on the experience and not enough in the food.

The restaurant looks very contemporary and photogenic. We start off in the front for amuse bouche before we are brought to the chef counter to taste another snack (scallop). I've never understood this tactic of being shuffled around but oh well.

There are many courses of mostly small plates, and lots of explaining of each item. They have their own local farm supplier and so on. While the dishes were mostly well executed, some were a bit salty, and none had a wow factor for us. And also perhaps not enough fancy ingredients to justify the price of 190 euro pp. There was a Wagyu rice towards the end but we found the meat a bit chewy.

Service was ok, but there's a few dishes that were a bit messy to eat and would have appreciated wipes...
