Shooters Roma — Restaurant in Rome

On our trip to Italy, this location was very near to where we were staying. We were a little skeptical about the name at first and we were looking for something with a more Italian name. Well, we were sorry that we judged the location based on the name after our first visit here. Our first visit was very memorable and we were greeted right away. Jeorge was our server and was fantastic. He was full of great energy.

He went over the menu and he was very easy to talk to. He made a few food recommendations as well as drink recommendations and was very honest about the menu and what his preferences were. He then introduced us to Alessandro who was very charismatic and fun to speak with. He would occasionally stop over to check on us to make sure things were going well and that we had everything we needed.

The service here was spectacular and puts many of the fancy restaurants in the US to shame. We were at Shooters for many hours trying things on the menu and we did not feel rushed at all. Jorge and Alessandro made my family feel as if we were a part of their family and in my opinion, that's what makes memories and makes the visit so amazing. We had them choose wine for us and all the selections were great. We were then later introduced to Don Franco who is the owner and he gave us a history of shooters.

He took the time to make us feel at home and occasionally checked on us himself. The location is on a non busy street and the dim lights set the mood. We never made it inside except to use their very clean restrooms. The inside of this location was very classy and also very clean. The staff take lots of pride in the work they do and the attention to details says it all.

My parents love thin and crispy crust pizza and on our whole trip throughout Italy they always did a comparison to the thin crust pizza at Shooters and they deemed Shooters as the best crust and most flavourful pizza they had in Italy.

Their Cacio et Pepe was to die for and even though it's a simple dish the flouvours were amazing. We went down the menu and tried the different foods along with the recommended wines. We topped the night off with amaro and limoncello.

On our second trip to Shooters, we were quickly greeted by Jeoge and Alessandro. The outside seating was full and this was a busy night. Alessandro and Jeoge knew we loved sitting outside and asked us to wait a few minutes. They then had the staff find some tables and move the tables outside for us and set us up quickly. This is not something that I have experienced in the United States. In the US they tell you to wait till a seat opens up but they wanted to seat us right away and made room for us.

This was our last night in Rome and we continued to try more things on the menu and the staff always found time to stop by for informal conversation. We then found out it was an important day and they were celebrating also. We spoke some more to Don Franco and enjoyed wine and dessert the rest of the night.

Thank you Jorge for the best service and for making our vacation a memorable one. Thank you Alessandro for making us feel like a part of the family and we do not doubt that the business is in good hands with you. Thank you so much Don Franco we will never forget the hospitality you have shown us and we hope to see you again soon. If I could leave more than 5 stars for the fun experience we had at your restaurant I would.

6 stars on the food, wine,...

I went to this restaurant with my family since we were staying around and our Airbnb host had recommended this place. Don't get me wrong, the food is nice and we definitely enjoyed our meal, but I would suggest that if you went here, you should definitely stick to what's on the menu and never take any suggestions from the server. They might propose some options that are not on the menu and, if you don't ask for the price beforehand, you might be a little surprised when getting the check. We paid 50€ for a cheese platter (I live in France and never have I ever paid as much for a cheese platter, not even in Paris) and 28€ for two glasses of what I would describe as a mix of sprite and wine (when the glass of wine is around 6€ at this restaurant). I would have appreciated the price to be announced since I don't even think it is legal to serve customers something that isn't on the menu!

To the restaurant manager: your food is excellent and your staff is already charismatic. You have everything you need to run a successful business! No need for this tourist...

I’ll start with the positive - the food was delicious. We needed some help picking starter and main as the menu was in Italian – the waitress was very helpful in assisting us. I wanted to have steak, so instead of explaining we went to a fridge where the raw meats are displayed to make things easier. They recommended T-Bone, but I decided to go for a different kind. When I asked for the bill, I saw I was charged for T-Bone, which isn’t what I wanted and instead of 800 grams, I was charged for 1000 grams. This type of steak happens to be their most expensive, not sure if it was a coincidence. From what I understood the side for the steak was meant to be included, but I was charged for it too. They were kind enough to issue another receipt to correct...
