Ristorante Il Falchetto

I visited Il Felchetto in Rome with my friend, and as a vegetarian I was so happy with the options they had. We ordered several dishes along with a bottle of wine, including artichokes, risotto, and a few more that I can’t even name in Italian. Every single dish was full of flavor, fresh, and beautifully prepared. The service was warm, attentive, and made us feel very welcome, even though we were not locals. The combination of excellent food, friendly atmosphere, and great wine made it a memorable evening. Il Felchetto is truly a gem in Rome, and I would happily return again.

This modern yet authentically Italian restaurant offers incredibly delicious food that never disappoints. The atmosphere is warm, stylish, and inviting. It’s perfect for a relaxed dinner or a special night out. Due to its popularity, reservations are highly recommended during peak hours. A must visit for anyone seeking a genuine Italian dining experience!

We stayed at The Singer Palace Hotel in Rome and asked the concierge for restaurant recommendations for dinner. One was Il Falchetto, which was a wonderful surprise! The woman said it had great pastas and seafood; I assumed it was a casual dining spot. We went without a reservation on a Saturday nite, around 930 pm. The outdoor dining area was cozy and inviting; the lights were romantic and diners were having fun, chatting and enjoying each others company! The location is on a quiet road off the main busy/loud street. The couple ahead of us in line were seated at the last available table outside and we were seated inside. The restaurant was full, except for a corner table (which a couple took shortly after we were seated). There were 2 large parties. The small room was full of life, but not too boisterous where we couldn't hear each other. Lots of Americans, which could be a good or bad thing. Lol. We are from the US as well. White cloth tables, I would describe the place as upscale but not pretentious at all. At first I thought maybe we had dressed too casual but I didnt feel treated any differently than the Chanel and YSL bagged women. It was our last day in Rome and I was looking forward to a memorable dinner. The wine BOOK was a little overwhelming, so we asked the sommelier for suggestions for a full-bodied red. He recommended an amazing wine from Sardinia (the best we had during the entire multi-city trip). We started with the artichoke (carciofi) and zucchini flower (fried courgette) appetizers - both were delicious. (Roman artichokes are a thing here, I learned! And the season is Feb-April) My husband ordered the taglioni w/ lobster, and I ordered a pasta that had olives, tomatoes, mozzarella/pesto. We shared the pan-fried shrimps w/ garlic & chili and spinach. My husband is very traditional and so we ordered the classic tiramisu (although the pistachio tiramisu caught my eye!) Everything was delicious. The service was EXCELLENT. It was my favorite restaurant experience in Rome. I will happily return again and try the many other dishes offered. On the way out, I noticed the fresh fish on display and the gentleman kindly named them all for me. They are open for lunch, which the waiter said isn't always as busy. We were lucky, but dinner reservations are probably the way to go. Thank you Il Falchetto for a lovely final meal in Italy. We loved every bite.

I found myself in this lovely Italian restaurant after almost falling prey to a tourist trap nearby. This is an upscale restaurant yet not pretentious at all. The service and attention to detail were the best I have had in Europe over the last two weeks. I wanted a Roman dish, and went with the maître d's recommendation and I could not be more pleased. Very satisfied and I absolutely recommend. I dined alone, but I plan on returning with my family before we leave Rome for another meal. I am quite pleased. Also, for the quality of food, service. and atmosphere, I felt the prices were a bargain.

So good that we ate here twice in one day. We stumbled upon this Roman cuisine gem by accident. And just wow. Valentino was our server and he was incredibly nice and informative about our menu choices and made great recommendations. We had the lobster tagliatelle, ribeye, and fresh porcini mushrooms. We also ordered the meat and cheese platter to which he told us where each meat and cheese came from based on the regions in Italy. For dessert we opted for the pistachio tiramisu. Francesco made our beef tartare table side during dinner. Ask to sit outside, bc the ambiance is next level. I have no idea how they don’t have a Michelin yet! Prices are reasonable and portions are perfect. Chef’s kiss!
