I've just had an incredible Nutellino espresso here. The rest of our order was also terrific, but the Nutellino deserves a special mention. The cost is not high, the waitress - while a bit peculiar - is a lovely, nice woman and you can sense the owners' passion at every step. All things considered, yet another great food experience in Rome.

10/10 would recommend! I ordered a latte and a pistachio croissant. Delicious! I've never had a pistachio croissant before and I'll probably come back here to get another tomorrow. It was that good! Service was excellent. Note: I don't speak Italian (sadly) and I had no issues ordering. They are very nice.

All the dishes we tried were very delicious with fresh ingredients, however we waited 45 minutes for our food to arrive which was a bit too long.
