  Found this place looking to have a bite before heading to the Colosseum- this place didn't disappoint. Adorable cafe! soy cafe latte was perfect :) Felt romantic, but also hip and trendy. Good music!

  This cafe is nestled off a beaten little path near the Colosseum. The vibe was definitely instagram worthy  - we came for the pics but left feeling all the love and good things that Italy offers. Note - I'm not a huge coffee drinker so the Late I received didn't bother me (though it seemed like the same machine every other cafe uses...) the Nutella Pancakes were amazing. The music. The pipes. The vibes just everything was set for us to have a good time! You can definitely tell many locals go here so for that alone let's me know this establishment is one of the best! Next time we're in Italy I hope to stumble upon this cozy little corner once again

  An adorable little cafe along a romantic, quiet street. Came here as part of my "coffee tour" across Italy. I got, and LOVED, their cappuccino. They produced, in what seemed to be seconds, a perfect little cappuccino with a delicate and delicious foam. Although my experience didn't really deviate from the coffee, they seemed to be an affordable cafe all around.
  
  The service is curt, but not abrasively so. They give you your space, you'll just need to flag someone down for your check (not an issue at all).
  
  For the purposes of a quick stop for a little coffee, I would recommend this cafe. (and don't forget to explore the area and street a little more, this is a great location).

  I read a review or two regarding the microwave preparation of food. I figured it wouldn't bother me that much, and had heard good things about their Oreo cheesecake dessert. However, after leaving the little house, I was significantly bothered!
  
  The house itself is adorable and nestled in a bright and picturesque neighborhood. The interior is clean and large windows let in lots of light.
  
  But the microwaved food...We got the eggplant lasagna, beef lasagna, and meatballs in a carrot curry sauce. It was like a basic encore lasagna. And we did not finish the curry. Something about the look of it was off putting.
  
  The bread was actually good and had some nice salt and seasoning. And we were told the Oreo cheesecake was awesome! It was not! The texture of the cheesecake was more like a dense pudding.
  
  The latte was fine; I liked the tall jar it came in. Really, I should have taken more heed to the microwave warnings. Go for the tiny house but stay away from the food!

  Nespresso pod coffee & microwaved food & tourists. Walked out as soon as I walked in. Very "instragrammable" vibe (outside ivy, inside tiny-ness).
