Ristoro degli Angeli — Restaurant in Rome

We ventured out of our comfort zone to a neighborhood, Garbatella, where we'd never been. We took Uber from the Spanish Steps for under 20 Euros and were welcomed warmly by Elisabetta (she of the turquoise hair) and her young and efficient staff. We were among the first to arrive for our 8:00 PM dinner res but the place was soon packed with locals, who all seemed to know each other, making for a busy Tuesday dinner service. Everything was amazing. We started with fried shrimp encrusted with thin pasta noodles, tried two daily specials, the fava bean soup and the potato ravioli, and a highpoint, the Rombo (turbot) involtini, which was accompanied by the famous Garbatella Potatoes! Not sure why they were famous, but very good nonetheless! Delicious carafe of Frascati for 11 Euros too! All and all a delicious dinner in a genuine local gem!...

From the moment we walked in, we were met with the most welcoming staff. Every single person was incredibly attentive and genuinely friendly, making us feel right at home. The manager was also incredibly affable and made a point to ensure we had a fantastic experience.

Made with rice flour, they were wonderfully light and crispy – truly a must-try! For dessert, their special homemade ice cream was a revelation. It struck the perfect balance between sweet and savory, a delightful combination that left us wanting more.

I wholeheartedly recommend this place to everyone looking for a memorable meal with outstanding service and delicious,...

Visiting Rome without experiencing the wonders of Ristoro degli angeli is it not quite a visit. From the welcome to the arrivederci it is all humble and perfect. I took the stuffed squid, and the croccanti shrimp just yummy, others took other interesting stuff on the menu. Il capo lavoro was dessert.... Even if you're watching your diet... Go ahead and enjoy, you're not on Rome every day. The ice cream all'olio d'oliva quiet a wonder, and the pistachio Al vodka e caramelle olala. The owner, his son and his lovely staff are all there, attending to your every need. You just have to enjoy, and for sure... Come back, no wonder they have the Michelin rating 3 years in a raw. We will surely visit next time we are in the...
