Appia Trattoria

A warm, unpretentious Italian meal in a space that feels more like someone’s home than a restaurant. I ordered the carbonara, served with rigatoni rather than spaghetti, and it was refreshingly different from the usual creamy versions. The sauce was egg-based, glossy and restrained, with black pepper and cured pork clearly present. The pasta was firmly al dente, closer to how carbonara is prepared in Rome rather than the cream-heavy adaptations often found elsewhere. It may surprise some diners, but it feels honest and confident. My dining companion ordered a tomato-based spaghetti, which was generous and comforting, though more in the classic Italian or Italian-American style than Roman. The chicken pâté was excellent and extremely generous in portion, rich and rustic, and served with very good grilled bread. The quantity was ample enough that we had to take some home. The bread service overall was simple and well done. The atmosphere is one of the restaurant’s strengths. With its painted plates and relaxed setting, it feels more like a dining room than a formal Italian restaurant — comfortable, sincere, and quietly assured. A place that focuses on substance over show, with cooking that respects tradition rather than trying to impress.

Visited for Sunday dinner. The meal started strong with their burrata salad featuring exceptionally fresh, sweet tomatoes that elevated the creamy cheese - simple but done right. The porchetta (550 THB) was the evening’s star, arriving with crackling-crisp skin and tender meat, served with an unexpected apple sauce that cut through the richness nicely. The Mazara del Vallo red prawn risotto (1,590 THB) showed proper technique with al dente rice and a balanced, not overly heavy sauce that let the prawn flavor shine through. Paolo’s Mother Tiramisu (350 THB) kept things light rather than heavy - a refreshing take on the classic that won’t leave you overstuffed. Service was attentive for our party of two, and the Sunday dinner atmosphere felt relaxed without being rushed. At around 2,000 baht for two with this quality, it’s fair value for well-executed Italian standards.

Great atmosphere with a mostly international crowd—not many locals here. It’s the perfect spot to sit back, have a meal, and chill with friends. The food was delicious, but the service was the real highlight. We came for a friend’s birthday, and when the staff brought out the cake we prepared, the whole restaurant joined in singing Happy Birthday! It was such a heartwarming moment. We even got a complimentary dessert from the restaurant. Highly recommend!

This is my favorite Italian restaurant so far 🤍🇮🇹 The atmosphere is super cozy and comfortable, yet beautifully decorated. It feels warm and welcoming the moment you walk in. The staff were very friendly and attentive, which made the whole experience even better. We ordered the red prawn risotto and it was honestly the best I’ve ever had 🦐✨ The prawns were fresh, sweet, and perfectly cooked. Absolutely unforgettable.

This cozy Italian restaurant has a friendly staff and a pleasant ambiance. I’ve been waiting a bit longer for my pasta, but the salad arrived quickly. The white wine with shrimp was nice, but the other pasta dish was too salty and rich. However, their homemade pasta is cooked perfectly, and I’ll definitely be returning.

We came for semi-business lunch for the first time. The owner (chef) and staff are friendly and attention to detials. High quality ingredients and unique menu and selections as compared with other intalian restaurants. I love their burrata topping with cavier. Must try the fish and roasted pork. For dessert, recommend lemon capuccino.

We were here to celebrate our daughter’s 18th birthday and Christmas and the restaurant gave us their beautiful private room. We were very impressed with the service provided by Zaw - his friendly and attentive service made the night extra special. Food was delicious, especially the chicken liver parfait, oxtail stew, lamb ribs and big portion of salad. Will definitely be back the next time we’re in Bangkok

Great and big portion Italian family style cooking. The chicken liver pate with toast is my absolute favourite, smooth and flavourful. The amatriciana was great as well, al dente and fresh pasta with big chucks of salty guanciale and the sauce. The tiramisu is almost a lovely dessert, tho I wish it had more alc taste lol. Great service as well!!!
