Local food in a typical atmosphere. A good surprise

I'm generous on the note because I want to support little typical restaurants like this. The food wasn't bad and I liked the atmosphere, I felt for a short time like a local, that was pleasant. The waiter was efficient and nice. And rare enough to notice, there was no copperta so I found it fair. I've spent 18€ for the meal wich was honest. Simple and good typical italian food.

Authentic roman food. The food was delicious and enough for a small lunch. The traffic noise would have bothered us more in the evening. The waiter was listless.
