"Awesome little restaurant. The owners were very welcoming. Found us a nice table outside. The service was great. The food was magnificent. The drinks were nice and refreshing. Overall great experience. Before our dishes came out they gave us a small fried bread, which was nice. We also had the Aperol Spritz, and Spritz Hugo (with Elderflower . Both very refreshing. We had for first course the Fried zucchini flowers with fresh ricotta, roman cheese (pecorino D.O.P. and anchovies , Roman tripe (typical Roman recipe in tomato sauce with croutons with mint oil . Both were excellent, great flavor, the batter on the flowers was nice and light, the tripe was so rich and tender. The second course we had the Carbonara with Black peppers Tellicherry and pork cheek from Norcia and white truffle cream , Carbonara with Bottarga (smoked tuna eggs from Marzamem , FETTUCCINE ARTIGIANALI HOMEMADE PASTA Alfredo with flakes of balsamic vinegar , Fettuccine with Sophia Loren pesto . Both versions of Carbonara were excellent, great el dente pasta and rich sauce, the Bottarga version was a nice alternate from the gunciale version, albeit a bit richer taste. Both Fettucinne stood out, the handmade pasta was so light and delicate, absolutely superb. The balsamic flakes lightened up the Alfredo and complimented the flavors nicely. For deserve we had the tiramisu with pistachio made with amaretto. And as a post dinner drink the owners brought out complementary limoncello shots, and a a dark chocolate no bake brownie she said yound kids would historically make at home, and sometimrs referred to in Italian as chocolate sausage (because it 's loosely mixed and the white flecks can be seen like you 'd see fat in a slice of sausage . Overall a great experience, will be a meal we remember for years to come. Grazie e buona notte!"

"Visiting Le Striatelle di nonna Mafalda has been an experience that definitely deserves to be shared. From the moment you walk through the door of this establishment, you are surrounded by a cozy atmosphere that makes you feel at home. The menu is a faithful reflection of the restaurant 's identity, offering a selection of dishes that speak of a tradition and a care for gastronomy that is difficult to find today. Plus, the prices are quite reasonable, which adds extra value to the dining experience. Arriving without a reservation, I was pleasantly surprised when the waiter informed me with a smile that we would only have to wait about 15 minutes for a table. This wait was a small detail that demonstrated the efficiency and good organization of the place. Once seated, the atmosphere was still pleasant and everything seemed to be going smoothly. However, it was clear that one of the waiters was about to finish his shift and showed a certain lack of enthusiasm for serving. Although this did not completely detract from the experience, it was an aspect that could be improved. Moving on to the food, I must say that the dishes are exceptional. The spaghetti carbonara, in particular, was prepared to perfection, striking a brilliant balance in its doneness and flavour. It is evident that behind each dish there is a dedication and love for Italian cuisine that deserves to be recognized. In short, Le Striatelle di nonna Mafalda offers a highly recommended culinary experience, with food that really stands out. Although front of house service could benefit from more consistency in enthusiasm and customer service, this doesn 't stop the restaurant from being a place you would definitely want to return to. The combination of a cozy atmosphere, exceptional food and fair prices make this place an attractive option for any lover of good food."
