  I came here with my boyfriend after my cousin recommended this spot to us after we told him we were going to vacation in Rome. I am glad we took his suggestion to come here because it was honestly the best meal I've had in Rome so far, we ordered two fried rice balls and a side salad to start off with. Then we ordered the bucatini pasta with tomato sauce and guanciale, honestly I'd go as far to say one of the best pasta dishes I've ever had. It was so flavorful and rich, but not heavy. Then we finished off with tea and coffee with the tiramisu, again delicious and would definitely recommend.
  
  Aside from the great food, the staff were very kind and efficient.

  I can go as far as to say that my dinner at Taverna Trilussa last week was one of the best meals I've ever had... I'm SO glad I had the chance to eat dinner here on my vacation to Rome. I had called for reservations a few days in advance and when calling the women I spoke with said it would not be possible to get a reservation and they did not accept walk ins. After hearing all of the great recommendations from friends to go here for dinner, I was bummed to hear this from the restaurant. We had a long day out and decided to head out to dinner around 9:30/10pm and have Taverna Trilussa a shot. When we arrived, the host said it wouldn't be a problem and we waited about 10 minutes. So glad I didn't listen to the woman on the phone and showed up later.
  
  For starters we ordered a salad and the fried mozzarella. The cheese was unlike anything I've ever had, simple and more breading that I was expecting, but very delicious.
  For the main pastas, we ordered the ravioli mimiosa and the truffle pasta. Both were absolutely incredible, however, I expected to like the truffle pasta more and ended up LOVING the ravioli. There's a reason this dish has won awards. Desert we ordered chocolate mousse and sabayon, which were both very delicious as well.
  
  You can't miss Taverna Trilussa if you're visiting Rome! Also, found this restaurant to be extremely reasonable for all that we ordered. Coming from New York, there's no where you can go and order a bottle of excellent wine, 2 appetizers, 2 main dishes, 2 desserts for around $130 dollars.

  Mama Mia this is good chow!
  
  This is my favorite spot in Rome. I had the Bucatini alla Gricia and it blew my socks right off! The rest of the food looked amazing as well. Kate got the gnocchi with tomatoes, basil, and fresh búfalo mozzarella.
  
  Desert was the chocolate mousse and it is my favorite. What a great meal.
  
  Atmosphere excellent. You are surrounded by ham and that is never bad. The service is most excellent and very friendly. Price is right.

  A must do restaurant in Rome. It's an icon and deservingly so.
  
  Ravioli Mimosa and L'Amatricciana are the two dishes you need to have before you die.
  
  Likely from happiness.
  
  Enjoy. I go every time I am in Rome, often 3-4 times in a weekly visit.

  We made a reservation here for our last night in Rome and I was sort of worried it would feel incredibly touristy.  Maybe it was, but I didn't notice, because I was too busy eating every last bite of my literal skillet of cacio e peppe!  They sat us out on the patio and it was a lovely atmosphere.  We heard them telling someone at the host stand that they were booked for the night, so I recommend making a reservation even just the day before (which is what we did).  I think they use fresh pasta, which was sort of refreshing!  My husband had the truffle pasta and it was damn good too!  I definitely recommend this place, it was so so good!
