"Simple and austere: the rightfully earned fame of this restaurant is due to the search for the best regional (but not only) products. A real passion of the owner who, like an archangel, will guide you to the paradise of the palate and gastronomic niches." - Michelin Inspector

"L’Arcangelo Casually chic, L’Arcangelo is a small bistro styled like a yesteryear living room: Think credenzas, leather banquettes, and framed photos. The gorgeous wooden bar serves up chef Arcangelo Dandini’s creations in a friendly, accommodating, and just a tiny bit cluttered atmosphere—exactly the kind of place your nonno would love. Chef Dandini is the patron saint of la cucina romana , and his menu shows off his flair for traditional recipes, like gnocchi all'Amatriciana , the restaurant's Thursday specialty."

"L’Arcangelo is the restaurant for when you want to be stylishly low profile. Located in the Prati neighborhood, the restaurant is essentially a stylized salotto—an open living room of leather couches and low tables—where chef and owner Arcangelo Dandini entertains with his unforgettable supplì, carbonara, and gnocchi."

Viaggio a Rocca Priora is the perfect Antipasto, made with daily fresh herbs and anchovies on top on a soft egg: simply delicious. I would definitely recommend to finish with the white chocolate and olive oil desert. Arcangelo and Fabrizio are truly the perfect hosts! Keep rocking!

We saw this restaurant on the blog Rome Wise and loved it. The perfectly cooked and the sauce delicious. They had a few different/out there dishes that we also enjoyed trying - especially the dessert with white chocolate, ginger, capers and olive oil. The wine was delicious and the staff attentive and warm. Would recommend booking if you’re thinking of visiting

Restaurant had a few free tables inside, however we were refused to sit inside and it was offered to sit outside in cold weather. It took forever to bring any food. They brought water much later when it was not needed. It was no heater outside or no blankets to offer. Food was delicious. A waiter took away unfinished food without asking. They charged for bread that was never given. Some local woman came inside the restaurant and was able to occupy 4 chair table almost 2 hours later.

The food was not good. Ordered for first course soup of the day it was ok flavours were not special. The carbonara was under cooked they replaced it woth al dante, the meat was mostly fat and chewi. The pork with cacoa was cooked well it was a bit bitter. Wine was expensive, we took by the glass hoped to get lower cost choise.

I’ve been here before and the food was great, however, this time they were racist. They sat us outside while it was freezing with no heaters, as well as another American, who had a reservation, while all the Italian sat inside. They didn’t bring us water for 30 minutes. There were many empty tables inside and one Italian with no reservation who walked by sat at a table for 4. They did not ask if we were finished before taking the food away. They also charged us for bread we never received and the waitress had a huge attitude while taking away empty bottles. Even though the food was good, I wouldn’t come back because of the atrocious service

I want to begin by saying that if you are seeing the negative reviews and are feeling hesitant - please read mine! I recommend ignoring the negative reviews. As someone who has food allergies I am usually a little more cautious when choosing places to eat. The staff was extremely welcoming and I felt very assured that they understood my allergies (I speak little to no conversational italian) and they made sure that each dish I was interested in did not contain any allergens. We came for the carbonara and wow did it deliver - the pasta was a perfect al dente (to those saying the pasta was too hard, I disagree) and the flavor of the sauce was incredible. Perfect portion size for the rich sauce, and honestly not significantly more expensive than other nice meals we have had on our Italy trip. The restaurant does take card - not sure why a recent review says they do not. Overall highly recommend as it was one of the best meals of our whole trip!

Came for the carbonara but was disappointed when it came super hard (not al dente at all) and when request for it be be softer told that this is how they like it….. not cool.For the price point not that good. The other dishes were ok and Tiramisu good 👍 Paid for the bill and 0 thanks at all.. We are English speaking! Service 3/10 Food 6/10 (octopus was good)

The appetizer was good, suppli. I didn't care for the carbonara, no flavor and the guanciale was hard. The service was very nice. The ricotta dessert was nothing special. They almost forgot about the espresso.
