"We were staying in Rome for an annual conference and, having some free time, decided to find the Fontana di Papa for lunch having chanced on it previously. Our recollections of distance were badly out but, with judicious research on google we were able to find it by Kilometre 12 as we remembered. There is a huge car park which was not all that full as we arrived just before 1pm. What looked like a large family party was gathering outside but, when we went in, only a few tables were occupied. We were shown to a table and water was quickly served. Our waiter then came and, in Italian (and only Italian) explained what there was and asked what we 'd like. We started with some delicious bruschetta pomodoro accompanied by 3 types of grilled vegetables. This we followed with fettuccini with mushrooms and rigatoni with a tomato and chilli sauce. Next we had sausage and skewers of delicious lamb with roast potatoes, and chicory. Next we had home made pannacotta with caramel and chocolate sauces. Everything was beautifully cooked. We had coffee and a couple of litres of sparkling water and a total bill of €58. It was excellent value for money. They take credit cards. The Clientele ranged from elderly couples and singles to young families and from the large family group to groups of workmen having lunch together. They have excellent and inexpensive wine choices and the place is immaculately clean. Large linen napkins and attentive staff also add to the pleasure of eating there. We 'll certainly be back. It 's now programmed into our satnav and mobile phones so we will not be delayed arriving next time. The Restaurant became completely full and understandably so with the quality of food and prices. When you add the fact that it 's family-run and the Hotel gets good reports too it 's not surprising. Thank goodness we found it again! And it 's not only child friendly but dog friendly too."

I have eaten at Fontana di Papa many, many times in the past 3 years on my trips to Italy. The food is ALWAYS fantastic, and the service is to die for. Pesce, scampi, steak,lamb,sausage, ravioli, and other homeade pastas are always available. I bring all my workmates here for both lunch and dinner. NEVER DISAPPOINTED!!!! Massimo is the absolute best host/waiter and greets all Americani with a smile and helps translate the menu with ease. I will return again and again.....Ciao, Grazie

I've been seeing this place for about three years, so I can say I've tasted the whole menu. Restaurant without frills here we rediscover the flavors of the real traditional cuisine, we start from some appetizers for me super : coratella, beans with the butts and tripe are excellent, for the first to my goto are all good but the cannelloni and the lasagna made by hand do not beat. For the second it is all another story, here you eat the real meat in the grill, especially cooked by those of experience really has so much, beef steaks, baked pig and ripassed to the grill, bacon, sausages, galletto, pork stench, in short, there is so much to write! For conclusion I thank all the staff always read...
