    Great experience! We were looking for a place with excellent traditional Roman cuisine and this exceeded our expectations. We both ordered pasta dishes and these were some of the best we’ve ever tasted, and the wine pairing only elevated our experience. We sat outside where we got to enjoy the great weather and liveliness of the neighborhood. The costs for this quality of meal are unmatched!

    If you don't share a meal at Virginiae while in Rome you're missing out. Truly one of the best lasagne I've eaten and the wine selection is superior. Our server, Rony, was a delight and I am so thankful we wandered down an alleyway to find this gem. We dined al fresco so we could feel the city and enjoy people watching. A musician played piano on the square nearby and even while the restaurant was busy the staff went out of their way to engage with us and ensure everything was perfect.

    We had our first dinner in Rome here. We had a beautiful dinner while sitting outside. The service was great. I had the carbonara pasta and my husband had the ravioli. My carbonara sauce was delicious, but the pasta was a little undercooked. It was more al dente then I would have liked. My husband’s ravioli was delicious. Our appetizer was top tier; we had the mozzarella with bruschetta. It paired well with our bottle of Pinot Grigio. Overall, we had a wonderful dinner.
