Trattoria da Gustavo In Licenza

25/02/2024: I had heard about it and as soon as the opportunity arose to find me near Monterotondo for work we popped in for a quick lunch. We are between road and railway, but internally a nice little porch, with well-spaced tables, creates a nice situation for lunch. The place inside is measured and even a little rustic, but the interesting and particular menu is absolutely not rustic. Greetings from the house with a well-breaded olive filled with nduia and buffalo ricotta... the consistency of the breading was good, but the flavors contained within were lost. Very interesting and refined appetizers: we order a selection of cheeses produced by bunkers in Brunico and a taste of raw ham that warm up our expectations. A little white frascati from the house accompanies ours. work chatter and the short wait for the arrival of a "Scarpariello" with Felicetti spaghettone and Piennolo tomato, ordered so as not to forget the flavors of Campania and my loved ones. Very good dishes and, a nice surprise, finding them on the menu in Monterotondo. We finish with two slightly burnt Sicilian cannoli (not up to par with the rest) and two coffees sweetened by two samples of very good chocolate salami (my grandmother made it). Then a super positive experience to be repeated to taste the entire menu. Prices appropriate to the proposals and praise for the service, with a kind, attentive and professional girl. I would therefore say that I am lucky to have found... this restaurant.. Another Sunday lunch visit which confirms the quality of the products and creativity. I would say perhaps greater attention to waiting times: we sit at the table at 2pm and get up at 4.30pm.

15/02/2024: This is not a fast food: you have to account for a iittle more than a hour lunch break if you go there. But the food is literally fantastic, probably the best carbonara ii ever tasted n Rome!
