Wonderful place with incredibly friendly staff. We’re only in Rome for 2 more days, but if we can, I’ll try to come back. Did I mention the people working here? So wonderful!

Came across this place while walking and have to leave a review to compliment the staff ! Only wanted a sandwich and the choice was great and food choice excellent with a couple of glasses of wine ! Very impressed on the male waiter with his lovely manner and impeccable hygiene . We had requested a knife from the waitress and while we waited saw him come out of kitchen area and thoroughly wash and dry his hands before lifting a knife and washing it before handing it wrapped in a napkin to us! Thoroughly recommend a visit here when next in Rome

Breakfast place serving American and European style breakfast and Espresso. Pastries, made-to-order big breakfast such as eggs & bacon or eggs/avocado toast, yogurts, etc. My breakfast was OK and the cappuccino was good. Seems to cater to tourists, as it is located close to a metro stop and Vatican City. The menu is available in English and the staff speak English quite well. The staff were friendly, the service was quick, and the food was just fine. Prices were reasonable given the location.
