  This a must have on your trip to Rome. I'd have to argue that it was my favorite place to eat at during the entire vacation. In fact, we ended up going back; that's how much my family loved it.
  
  It's a quaint little place that primarily serves pizza and pasta. If I'm being honest, I was not impressed by Italian cuisine during my visit because I found the flavors bland. However, the dishes served at Sapori e Delizie were on the opposite spectrum. The big hit with my family was the lasagna, and it might be a hit with your tastebuds as well.
  
  And if you want a must have: the tiramisu. I have never bitten into such a soft pillow of rich coffee taste. Just try to get it early, they make limited amounts during the day and they do run out.

  This was our first authentic Italian cuisine experience during our trip, and I think we made the right choice! Being tourists, we rely heavily on past reviews and experiences of others, and this place was highly recommended by most, so we decided to walk quite the distance to try the food out here.
  
  My first impression of the place wasn't the greatest. The restaurant is "tiny", has barely 5-6 tables, and has no waiting area/section/chairs. We were literally standing next to the toilet, waiting for our turn to be seated, which according to the waitress could take anywhere from 20 mins to an hour. Since this didn't sound very promising to me, I had already started looking for other places nearby, but thankfully, our turn came in about 30 mins or so. I had already looked up the menu in detail, so we ordered right away. We went with the Pizza calabrese and lasagna (based on their recommendation). The food came out in around 10-15 mins, and was delicious! I am so glad we didn't give up on the wait and go elsewhere. The quantity is great for the price as well, and we ended up having to take some lasagna to-go.
  
  I would definitely revisit this place again if I am in the area, during a less busy hour. Definitely worth a try if you like traditional Italian food (and American music)! :-)

  We came here because of the reviews and they did not disappoint. It's a tiny little place, and was full when we showed up but we got right in.
  
  The pizza is amazing. My husband ordered Cacio e Pepe, which was a tad under salted but still delicious. Great service and the pizza, again, was amazing.

  This was one of our favorite restaurants in all of Rome! It came highly recommended from a friend and from Yelp. Our first night we were greeted warmly by one of the servers who sat us within 10 minutes on a Saturday night. We started with a house salad and then had the prosciutto pizza and carbonara pasta. The pizza was one of the best pizzas we ate during our trip! The crust was very minimally crisp and the dough was extremely fresh! The homemade sauce was great without being too rich. The carbonara was very rich and bold and the bacon was super thick! Picture three times thicker than American bacon, it was the real deal! Or just see the picture.
  
  Our second dinner, we started with the Greek salad, then the fungi pizza and hot sausage and onion pizza. Being a Greek, I can be a little ( very) picky at times with Greek salads. This salad was absolutely amazing, the feta was fresh off the counter and there were eight Kalamata olives!! I was overjoyed to see them! Both pizzas were again, extremely fresh! Both had a generous amount of toppings and again the crust was very minimally crisp. The way they roll the dough and the way the dough is baked is honestly perfect! This was definitely my favorite pizza.
  
  If you're looking for an authentic, delicious, and memorable pizza: you have found it! Definitely have to check this place out!

  I'll admit I could've gone for other options than the roast beef as the menu was a little deceiving in the description although it is literally just roast beef on top instead of what I thought to be more meats... But I did see other options on the menu with more on the pizza. (Thought I was trading off certain things for more meat). Anyhow, I'm giving 5 stars because I really liked the pizza. Fluffy but also crunchy crust -- the right balance, good flavoring in the cheese, and the meat was good.
  Service was good and spoke good English for the tourists to not make things awkward or difficult in translation.
