Trattoria Della Stampa: A Culinary Gem in Rome's Heart

A great spot for lunch right after visiting the Trevi Fountain! It’s a lovely traditional taverna serving truly fabulous pasta. We started with the Puntarelle, which was incredibly fresh—a perfect starter to balance out the richer mains. For pasta, we went with the classics: a rich Cacio e Pepe and a perfect 'real' Carbonara. Our host was very friendly and even offered us a great digestivo to finish the meal. The only downside: The place is quite tight and cozy, so when it’s full, it can be a bit of a squeeze to get in and out of your seat. Aside from the snug layout, everything was wonderful!

It’s a spectacular place to share a dinner with your partner or friends. The place is beautiful and quiet, the food is absolutely delicious, and they offer a great variety of dishes. I especially loved the tomato pasta it was amazing. 100% recommend it.

Cozy little place. Great food. Busy with not much room to maneuver. Ravioli was tasty but a bit salty same with the amatriciana. Filet was fantastic. Meatballs were delicious. Service was rushed and a bit awkward due to the small space. Would recommend. Small edit to my review while reminiscing about my time in Rome. The owners seem very arrogant in response to any negative review or feedback. My advice: don't do that. Listen to the feedback. There are plenty of places to eat in Rome. Are you perfect?

Very cozy spot in the heart of the city! The food is amazing across the board: the artichokes, pasta, and even the chicken, which can be simple elsewhere, was cooked to perfection. A 10/10 experience! Excellent service and a lovely vibeHighly recommended!

I was in Rome only for a few nights and we visited this restaurant by pure chance the first time — but it was so good that I had to come back again. The carbonara was absolutely delicious I also highly recommend the limoncello spritz. The staff is very friendly and welcoming, especially Binoy from Sri Lanka , who had a lovely chat with us while I was waiting for a table The restaurant is small and cozy with a warm, family-like atmosphere, so I definitely recommend booking a table in advance.

I was on a trip with friends and we ended up here just by chance. The restaurant is small but it feels quite local. From the beginning the service was super good, the waiter was friendly and attentive with us. There are so many places in Rome in which you feel like a tourist trap, but this is not the case here. All dishes we ordered were delicious. The pasta pretty well cooked and all flavors amazing. I would repeat visiting this place when I come back to Rome, because it was memorable. Thank you for a delicious meal!

One of the best places in Rome that gives you a warm feeling, with very friendly employees, great food, and good prices. It is always better to book a table in advance so you don’t have to wait in line at all. We also ordered take-away a couple of times and the food was delicious, like when seating in the restaurant. Every time we are at Rome we eat here.

Delicious food. I'm not a big fan of pasta, but I could still tell the quality of food is really good. The atmosphere is good, but tables are placed way too close that it really felt a bit uncomfortable. The staff were really courteous! Had a good time here.
