✨Looking for something different in Rome?
Just beyond the usual tourist paths, in the charming surroundings of Ostia Antica, there is a little home restaurant that is quite unlike any other.
We welcome our guests into our porch, surrounded by old family memorabilia, roses, fragrant herbs and the beautiful, slightly untamed charm of our garden.
Here, there is no rush, no formal setting — just a table, good food, good wine and the feeling of being welcomed into someone’s home.
Everything we serve is prepared with care, using genuine ingredients and flavours we truly love. But food is only part of the experience.
In just a few weeks, we have collected nothing but 5-star reviews — and, even more importantly, met wonderful, curious, funny and fascinating people from all over the world. Some came as guests and left feeling like old friends.

Because for us, sharing a beautiful evening around a table is the real reason we do this.
The food matters, of course. A lot. 🍒
But so do the stories, the laughter, the conversations and all those little unexpected moments that make an evening memorable.
And if you're visiting Rome, don't overlook Ostia Antica. Its extraordinary archaeological park is one of the city's most fascinating hidden treasures — and perhaps the perfect excuse to venture beyond the centre for an entirely different kind of Roman experience.
So, if you are looking for a genuine taste of Italy, a beautiful setting and an evening you'll remember, come and find us.
