"This place was about 3 blocks from our hotel. After dropping off our bags we strolled here for lunch. You enter via a wide main doorway. Inside there are 2 or 3 tables (for four) on either side. At the end of the space is a counter with a display case showing some prepared food. I think this was just for take-out orders, though. We walked up but were asked to select a table. We chose one near the door as it was a nice day. They also appeared to have a second dining area in a sort of tent covering the curb into the street. This was not uncommon for various restaurants in the area, from what we observed. They didn't devote a lot to decorating, but it seemed like a simple and efficient shop. The host came by with menus and confirmed our order for still water. They had a good variety of dishes, many of which were similar to what I'd expect to see on a similar place in the U.S. Everyone found a dish to their taste and we ordered, along with some naan and rice (they recommended 2 orders of rice to split, but I think 1 would have sufficed for us). The food arrived fairly soon and was good. Portion sizes were a bit smaller than you might get in the U.S., but that was standard for most restaurants in Italy and also worked well for us being able to comfortably finish the food without leftovers. Post-meal payment was a little confused. I first waited for the bill, then went to the counter thinking that I should pay there. I was assured that they would bring the bill, which they did. Another guy came by to process my credit card, and asked me to step out front. Apparently their handheld credit card reader (also common in Italy) got a better signal outside. On the 2nd attempt, it processed the payment. We all liked our meal here and would consider returning if we were again in Rome."
