EVO Hosteria

This small hosteria has become our favorite restaurant in Rome. After my wife and my lunch at Evo today, I can say that each meal is delicious and beautifully presented. Evo is not your typical tourist type of Roman restaurant. It’s a special little place.

The food is excellent. Those were the best entrees we have had in Rome. The staff makes you feel welcome and are attentive to your needs.

We discovered this restaurant a few years ago on the Fork and went back twice. Back in Rome again, and again we went two nights in a row because the food is that good and that interesting. I don't see their menu online - could be they change it often - but the food is unique and very tasty. This is not your tourist menu! We go to Rome quite often and wouldn't hesitate to go here again. The ambiance is plain but thoughtful, but the love is all in the cooking.

We had an excellent meal here. I've tried a number of restaurants in Trastevere and generally found them to be good, but this one is a step above. The dishes are well prepared and nicely presented. I especially enjoyed the appetizer of stuffed zucchini flowers, baked rather than fried - quite original and very tasty. The service was attentive and helpful, and the atmosphere was pleasant and relaxing.

We were delighted by our first experience at EVO, beginning with the flavors and presentations of the starters- the zucchini flowers with cacio e pepe crema, the fresh burrata and the extraordinary meatballs, which may be among the best I’ve tried. I enjoyed the roast duck breast and my friends enjoyed their truffled carbonara. The wine, a Barbera di Asti DOCG, and at a very good price. We were delighted with the service and I will be back!
