About this place CiPASSO

CiPASSO is a restaurant on Via Metastasio in Rome's historic centre, a few minutes' walk from the Pantheon and Piazza Navona. It is mainstream and gay-friendly, not a gay venue. More than 5,000 Google reviews average 4.8, with the Roman cooking and the service often praised. Expect upper-mid prices for the area. The room is not large and the reviews show how popular it is, so book ahead for dinner. Rome's small gay strip on Via di San Giovanni in Laterano, near the Colosseum, is a taxi or about 30 minutes' walk away.

We were left underwhelmed by the food. Outstanding wine list. Truffle pasta was excellent. Burrata was low quality and the tomato portion bland. Greens were OK. Pork main was underwhelming. Service was excellent. Atmosphere was average although a bit bright and also a subtle, slightly stagnant smell. For the price and fame, you can find much better in Rome.

Lovely dinner experience! One of the best pastas I’ve had in Rome! Service was great and the food was even better! We ordered the tagliolini, scampi fettuccine and the tiramisu. 10/10

I had dinner here with a friend and I loved it. First, I'd like to highlight the friendliness of the staff, the booking process with a live chat that allowed us to tell them our exact arrival time, and of course, how attentive they were at all times and how they accommodated my companion's dietary needs and preferences, as she had some restrictions. The dishes, like the burrata, were delicious, the wine selection was excellent, and the panna cotta was truly exquisite. The atmosphere was relaxed and perfect for a date.

Excellent Roman specialties that you don't see everywhere!

A truly exceptional experience from start to finish. The service was particularly warm and attentive, with a real attention to detail: they even went out of their way to find us a French-speaking server so we felt completely at ease. You can feel the refinement and care, both in the welcome and the comfort, as well as in the food. Everything was delicious and very well thought out. A truly wonderful experience that I highly recommend!
