Osteria La Sol Fa - Authentic Roman Cuisine in the Heart of Rome

This place has authentic Roman food. We had carbonara and oxtail stew, both were very delicious. For dessert we had tiramisu with hazelnut paste. It is not a traditional tiramisu but I found it very delicious.

First meal in Rome, overall was okay. Trippa a Romana — tasted good, clean and no weird smell! Coda a’Vacinana - oxtail was my favourite! Really nice! Chicory was a little salty. Casio e Pepe is okay —— Good thing about the restaurant is that you can order a half size portion for a reduced price. Takes quite abit of time for the food to be served.

Absolutely fantastic experience! The gricia pasta was perfect- rich, flavorful, and authentic. The tiramisu was one of the best I’ve ever had - light, creamy, and perfectly balanced. Great food, lovely atmosphere, and friendly service. Highly recommend! I also tried the tripa - it wasn’t my favorite, but that’s just a matter of taste. I’m glad I tried something new!

Authentic roman food. Best caccio e pepe i had in my life. Everything was perfect. Food 15/10, Staff 15/10 Make sure to make a reservation because it is very popular for locals. It its full 5min after opening.

Score: 4.4 Really nice little spot, kind of hidden from the crowds but still had a good vibe and was pretty full. Relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff, and they’ve got outdoor seating too, which is a plus. We had the carbonara and amatriciana both were tasty. Ended with tiramisu, but honestly, that and the house wine were a bit disappointing. Nothing terrible, just not amazing. Prices were fair though, and overall, good value for the quality. Would definitely go back and try something else.

An incredible gem in Rome. The decor and atmosphere is cute and simple. The prices are very reasonable. The service is excellent and quick. And above all, the food is excellent. The Roman tripes are a must try, and a local delicacy!
