We were visiting relatives in Rome and they treated us to a meal at this restaurant. There was ample inside seating but it was a beautiful night in July 2016, so we sat at one of a dozen or so tented areas outside. The tents were far enough apart that the effect was quite beautiful as you could see, but not really hear, the other guests. I am not really sure how the order for dinner was placed but something like "bring us your usual" was told to the waiters. The service was impeccable. Soon after our arrival the first dishes started arriving. Most of the first course was ample servings (family style) of fish (salmon, shrimp, crawfish, scallops, anchovies and several other fish) served ceviche style along with raw oysters. There were many different preparations of how the fish was served alongside other ingredients (as in a salad) but the visual effect was as stunning as the taste. The fish was (obviously) very fresh and the taste was like nothing I have experienced. I think this is the first time I have eaten more than a bite of fish prepared this way and certainly have not seen this range of fish on menus in the USA. This course along took about an hour to serve and complete, and in the USA, the meal would have been complete. It was delicious. The second course was pasta with different seafood added, my wife and I asked for gluten-free pasta and this was not a problem. The pasta was served in a tomato sauce that was delicious and loaded with shrimp, crawfish, scallops and other fish. Again this was delicious as well.They were very accommodating for the kids, bringing some more kid-friendly food, but my 12 year old daughter learned that she liked anchovies, if they are like they were at L'Altra Tappa. The kids had dessert that looked wonderful but the adults were tapped out on the meal. This was one of the best meals I have ever experienced and it was a real treat. It is worth looking at the website --- the pictures give you an idea of the meal. The website is written in Italian but pictures day a 1000 words. This restaurant is a bit southeast of Rome, but it is a great treat.

The only problem about this restaurant I've found, is the new address...Indeed I tried 2 navigators but to find this nice place I had to call, then everything was very fine. The two guys working there are very smart and kind: I've tried a very good starter with fish, and gnocchi with fish. Both meals were fresh, and very good, so I really enjoyed this meal, and yo can definitively go to La Coccinella and have a very nice lunch or dinner. I was there for lunch during a business trip, and waiting time has been onyl as just needed to cook with fresh infredients.

We were staying nearby at a B&B and our host strongly recommended this place. We were not disappointed. The locals all go here, it was packed and for good reason. Food was stunning and authentic. I had mozzarella and prosciutto to start, then an amazing pasta dish with a truffle and sausage sauce. My wife had a huge salad with grilled veggies and grilled salmon. Also had dessert (by an award winning chef), coffee and homemade limonecello of course. Our waiter was happy to speak with us in English and was lots of fun and really helpful. Best waiter I've had the pleasure of being served by in a long time. In short, if you are in this area, you have to go here.

Wonderful, authentic Roman food. Perfect pasta and grilled meats. I highly recommend the Carbonara and the Cacio Pepe.Just around the back of the airport in a quiet neighbourhood, it doesnt look much (will be refurbished shortly) but the food is absolutely first class.The crowd is mostly local workers and business people, prices are very affordable.

Cucina Romana
We were made to feel very welcome. The bread and nibbles which were brought to our table on arrival were tasty. The mixed antipasti starter was ok - just could have had more flavour and seasoning. Our pasta main courses were OK too - retrospectively (having eaten in several other restaurants in Rome since this visit), it wasn't at the highest end of the scale of tastiness or quality. The house red wine was amazing value and very drinkable. Portion sizes were generous.

First of all, the rating is not 5 out of 5 only because the menus were in Italian and the waiters couldn't speak English at all. We tried getting what we thought was a meat pizza and ended up with an eggplant pizza. The crust and the cheese were awesome though, so one would only assume the right choice in pizza would be a great lunch/dinner.

Cucina italiana, pinseria, carne chianina, pesce fresco, locale adatto a banchetti e ricevimenti. La nostra struttura sita nel centro di Ciampino è facilmente raggiungibile dall aeroporto. Abbiamo convenzioni con strutture alberghiere e servizio taxi.
We were here on our last day of the holiday, staying in a hotel ,handy for the airport and this restaurant was recommended by the hotel staff. It was frequented by locals and was rapidly filling up. I had marinated salmon as a starter which was light and refreshing then a wonderful plate of calamari. Pizza and pasta is second to none in Italy but it was great to see fish on the menu at a reasonable cost. I , now, would also advise people to stay in Ciampino and visit Rome as it is less frenetic and cheaper.

I called in here, as it was near to the apartments where I was staying. I previously thought that it was impossible to ruin Italian food but they managed it here. Bruschetta al tonno was dry bread with a bitter-tasting tuna paste. Terrible! The scalloppina were OK but very bland. The head waiter was fussing around people he obviously knew and didn't even wish me a "good evening" - the waitresses were good, however. Very attentive. I ate in the gazebo and this meant that the manager allowed people to smoke, presumably because it's "outside" but it wasn't really. It was terrible, having smoke wafting into my direction whilst eating. I'm sure the locals love it but as a tourist, avoid it.
