Really authentic Roman place. Here you just need to come to try their breaded deep fry Baccala (fish) Really good and fresh, you can choose to come and been serve or just for take away. Very nice and polite service. Well done guys!

this place is amazing! the fried cod is very tender with a light yet tasty seasoning, and the tiramisù was great. i loved the ambience, you can seat outside with a nice view of saint barbara church and other restaurants. felt like a true local experience, 10/10 :)

This is not your touristy stop, unless, like me, you love baccalà. Here, it's salty juice stockfish, deep fried in a crumbly crispy exterior, and, if you do it well, eaten with the ever-so-Roman puntarelle. It's a hole in the wall place; barely room for a handful of people to stand, although there are maybe two small tables, if you can nab one. Otherwise, eat the well-oiled deliciousness while standing outside, watching kids kick a soccer ball around, as tourists file across the piazza toward the narrowest church in Rome (or maybe anywhere), Santa Barbara. All in all, a delightful experience -- but you really have to love baccalà. I most certainly do, so I keep coming back!

Good place for a quick bite to eat, only if you like fried cod!! We thought it was great, lightly fried and not too salty. Also enjoyed the chickpeas and salad with anchovies and cold beer. A very specific menu.

During our trip to Italy, we really enjoyed visiting family-run businesses, and this wonderful place was one of them. My partner and I went there for dinner after a long day at the Vatican Museums. At first, I wasn’t sure how the system worked, as there were people standing at the entrance waiting (it turned out they were there for takeaway). Then I saw a handsome young chap with his right arm in a cast sitting at the front of the shop, so I went up, said Buona Sera, and asked in English how things worked. He turned out to be the owner’s son and kindly got us a table for two right away. Like usual, we had already done our homework, so we knew what was on the menu and what we wanted. The service was incredibly friendly, offered by the owner and, I guess, his brother. I just wish I could speak more Italiano so I could join in their conversation! A lovely lady who brought our dishes kindly gave us a tip: 'Not sure if you've been told. Please feel free to dress the salad with olive oil, but don’t add more salt, as there are anchovies and it’s salty enough.' Coming from Australia, where Italian cuisine is hugely popular, we already had a good idea of what to expect, but for any newcomers, such thoughtful advice would be so helpful. Also, in a city like Rome where prices can be quite high especially for tourists, this place stands out for being honest and truly committed to serving delicious food to its customers. My full respect, and Grazie Mille for the wonderful dinner!
