We had an outstanding experience at Oste Nostro, a wonderfully cozy place that perfectly captures the spirit of the Trastevere neighborhood. The food was excellent — we actually dined there two days in a row (just the two of us) and tried several dishes: the beef carpaccio, octopus, and pasta. The Gnocchetti “Ajo e Ojo” with peperoncino and shrimp were simply out of this world, just like the carbonara. Of course, we couldn’t skip the tiramisu — everything was exceptional, with a subtle, original twist. The service was also great, and the atmosphere was exactly what you’d hope to find in such an authentic place. Bonus points for a fantastic Negroni and a laid-back vibe that makes it easy to strike up conversations with other friendly guests.
Very tasty pasta, unusual options compared to a lot of other restaurants around. It was quite difficult for us to get the attention of any of the wait staff, even to pay, and we were sat out the back which has a different atmosphere. However, would overall recommend
Amazing bar/restaurant tucked away in a quiet lane. The food was good but the pasta dish was just too oily for my liking. The cocktails however was really good!! Ended up having I think 2/3 old fashions at this place! Staff are very polite and attentive.
Stopped in for an Aperitivo and felt like we were being ignored. We were seated just outside the door and the person in charge literally walked past us 5 times before we could even get menus. He went across the street to the tattoo place and still no menus. Finally brought us menus and then ignored us again while he sat other patrons and we motioned to get his attention. We just ordered some snacks and left. Nothing special to make me go back!.
Stopped by here on a Sunday and had a great meal. Lovely carbonara , the pumpkin lasagne was delicious. Meatballs yummy and loved the crispy gnocci. Great wine and nice atmosphere
Delicious, an original menu combining traditional Roman dishes with seasonal twists. Very generous portions and excellent value for money. The service is fast and efficient. The interior also perfectly fits to have drinks with friends. We returned for dinner a second time the next day. A must-see in Trastevere.
Great place. Great atmosphere. It's definitely not a tourist trap. If you want a real Italian/Roman experience, you should choose this place. Bear in mind that Italy is much more than just pizza & pasta.
