	Review: We took a taxi to this restaurant for lunch since it was quite far from our hotel. Note that it is on the West side of the river. The area is interesting and upscale. The staff did not speak any English whatsoever so when the server brought us a salad plate we had not ordered, we assumed that it was a free sample. It was a combination of fresh orange pieces with raw onion and olive oil. This is not a combination I would have expected to work but I liked it. My wife did not care for it. The vegetarian soup was good but quite salty. Other dishes we ordered were also oversalted for our taste but they were prepared well. When we received the bill, the salad was listed and charged. Perhaps it was a language issue.   Pros: good veg selection * * Cons: salad served that we had not ordered * very slow service *

"Excellent choice!"   My Rating

	Review: A real "neighborhood" restaurant. Small and cozy with friendly staff and generous, well prepared foods. Wide selection of vegetarian and vegan foods in generous portions. Terrific use of seasoning and solid presentation. About 1/2 to 2/3 of the price of the "upscale" vegetarian restaurants. I would rate it a 5 out of 5, but for some reason the review box below will only let me select a maximum of 4!!??!! Overall, my #1 choice for vegan in Rome. Ask for Marco, he was a great waiter!   Pros: value * selection * staff Cons: none! * *

"Good Value"   My Rating

	Review: Just back from Rome and had lunch here once. Good selection although not 100% veggie. Nice staff but they only speak Italian, the menu is colour coded so you should be able to find your needs easily. The salads are huge compared to anywhere we visited. We arrived 25 minutes before opening, but the staff let us inside to look over the menu, they were very nice. I suggest you go visit the vatican are in the morning and go here for lunch, as its location is a bit off the beaten track(15 minutes walk from Vatican).   Pros: Good Food * Nice Staff * Good Value Cons: Location * *
