Pepe | Ristorante San Giovanni

Excellent food excellent stuff highly recommend ?

Small meal and lots of taste. Very expensive. Friendly staff.

Very nice local restaurant, great risotto! Make sure you speak & understand Italian?

I am visiting Rome for a few days and on this first day I already love the food here! This restaurant has some amazing pizza's for a really affordable price(6-10 Euro's). The quality of the ingredients are very good which makes the pizzas so delicious! :) I didn't make a reservation but I think I can recommend to do so because during the busier hours the place was filled with people. The staff was very friendly and speaks English good. The place was really cozy with a warm but modern interior. Damn can't stop talking about all the good stuff, pizza will never be the same again back home :(

We arrived 30 minutes before they opened and they allowed us to stay anyways... so nice.. I like the restaurant .. The decor is simple but pretty. The attention was very friendly and fast. The food was good and also the price .. I will be back ..

Quality/price for Rome not good at all. Staff is nice, wine is good, food is sad.

Based on the high reviews we had rather high expectations but unfortunately we were a bit disappointed. The starters were great but the pizza and pasta was rather bland. Nothing spectacular unfortunately.

CRUEL AND UNUSUAL TREATMENT FOR NON ITALIANS We were visiting Italy and a friend told us to try this restaurant because it has amazing pizza. We booked a reservation online for 19:00 and made our way there. When we arrived, we were told that even though we made a reservation, the restaurant didn’t actually open until 19:30 and we had to wait. We were pleasant and left to have drinks and wait. When we came back at 19:30 we told a different waitress that we had reservations and as she prepared to seat us, the other waitress from before spoke to her in Italian and she then asked to check our green pass. My entire family is fully vaccinated and received boosters. My parents are brother senior citizens so they received vaccines on November 10th and the waitress told us that it was seven days past six months. We told her that no other restaurant or hotel in rome had asked for our green pass and she told us that didn’t matter. She was quite rude to my mother and we decided to leave because we didn’t want to be treated poorly. On our way out I asked some Italian customers if they had been asked for their green pass and they replied that it wasn’t necessary. I truly believe that the waitresses didn’t want us there because we were not Italian and we’re trying to come up with reasons not to let us eat there. It’s truly disappointing because we had a friend tell us that it would be an amazing experience. We googled the green pass rules for Italy and it said that anyone with a booster was allowed to be served any time after April 1st. The Italian embassy clearly states that the six month rule no longer applies. These wait staff do not deserve to work there if they are going to make up excuses to turn away business and I would highly recommend that tourists avoid this restaurant.
