Cantina Castrocielo

Love this place not only for the wide selection of wines but also for the ability to get advise from real experts. Their wine selection is mainly coming from small producers at reasonable prices. The food might run the risk to come second here but all that I've tasted was extremely good. The are outside is nothing outstanding

This is an unexpected place in a residential area in Rome. The owners are two devoted sommeliers and you can feel that they love what they do. They've been among the first to import sake from Japan and have also recently received international praise, being Italian Amabassadors of the Concours Mondial de Bruxelles. Having said that, I often come here and quite recently I've chosen this restaurant for a dinner with my international manager. Everything perfect, I liked the pairing of the wine we were suggested and I received a lot of praises for my choice of the restaurant. I only have a suggestion (hence the 'very good' instead of an 'excellent'): it would be nice to have a new menù, with new dishes... as I come here often I've tried everything at least a couple of times :)

A cozy, welcoming place with refined cuisine. Excellent choice of wines. The staff is kind and competent. Definitely a point of reference.

A well-stocked wine shop, in a warm, welcoming and pleasant environment, the owner Isabella, a true professional, excellent cuisine and excellent raw materials. A point of reference in South Rome for lovers of good drinking and good food.

Very nice and intimate place. The staff is very present and very attentive to the needs of the customer. The dishes are excellent and original as an idea but not perfectly prepared. Excellent choice of dishes. However, I would gladly return.
