Lonely Planet review for Da Francesco

Gingham, paper tablecloths, frazzled, jovial waiters, groaning plateloads of pasta, tasty pizza: this quintessential Roman kitchen has character coming out of its ears, and tables and chairs spilling out onto the pretty piazza. Rock up early or queue. No credit cards.

    darcylsmith recommends this,

    Da Francesco is a bit hidden in a tiny piazza, but a helpful local pointed us in the right direction. While friends had recommended this place for its pizza, we found ourselves here at lunchtime before the ovens were on and settled for pasta instead. We were not disappointed! My carbonara was delicious, but my niece's arrabiata was spectacular. Servings were plentiful enough that we took leftovers back to the hotel.

    This restaurant is an affordable local favorite and not at all touristy. The atmosphere is no-frills, genuine Rome, with pleasant service and a welcoming vibe. Will definitely seek it out on a return trip!
