Baccanale

Got pulled into this trap walking around the market. Then, saw the yelp ratings and thought, too late now, let's give this a chance.

My husband ordered gnocchi and I got Alfredo. When the gnocchi came out, we were shocked. It looked so strange. They looked like Cheeto puff chip balls. We tasted and we both agreed the taste was so familiar, but couldn't think of what it tasted like. Then we realized what it was.... Spaghettios from a can... identical flavors. I feel like the sauce on the gnocchi was literally that sauce lol.

It was so bad my husband took one bite and didn't finish. Our worst experience in Italy.

This was a cool place on the Campo! Our server Flori was great! She recommended a pasta dish that was fabulous. The service was good N i loved all the variety of bruschetta and other appetizers.

Just don't!! Extremely long wait for breakfast. After 30 minutes we were told they didn't have what we ordered. Ordered again. Another 30 minutes with no food. Had to get to a tour we had tickets for so we asked to just pay for our drinks. They said it was ready and brought out raw sausage and the nastiest eggs you can get. Walk the extra distance to somewhere else.

Sayed is the best waitress! Food and drinks were great!

First don't eat at any trattoria or restaurant on the square. If someone has to stand outside to "lure" you in that's a red flag.

However, they have a sandwich or panini place with the same name on the side street. You walk up and choose from many including porcheta. I had a cheese, mushroom and arugula panini and my husband had the porcheta. They were both delicious and 5 stars. It was about 11 euros for two huge sandwiches and a coke. They had the friendliest service. No seating because it's to go. We ate at some of the finest restaurants but these sandwiches were a highlight! Locals buying them too....

Came here with a group of 6 for lunch. Service was good and the prices reasonable. I was surprised at how large the portions were. Not typical for Italian restaurants. Everyone enjoyed their meal especially the grilled Octopus. Really delicious.

I would recommend this restaurant. It is in a great location and great for people watching entertainment.

Baccanale is a bit of a tourist trap on Campo di Fiore. Seating is both inside and on the piazza under an awning. Tables are jammed together, making it difficult to squeeze between them. Service is slow, and the food is just OK. Drink prices are relatively high compared to other bar restaurants -- e.g , a Nigroni and an Americano cost 8,00€ each. Within a 5 minute walk, one can find same drinks for 5,00€.

Had a fabulous time dining at Baccanale with my hubby and great friends! Our server, Mohamed, was the best! He was very attentive, had quite the sense of humor and provided superior service to ensure we had an exceptional dining experience! Generous portions of tasty entrees and cocktail drinks. Thanks so much Mohamed, highly recommend this restaurant!

We stopped by this restaurant after taking a glance at the menus at the restaurants around the plaza. It seemed reasonably priced, and the food looked good. The waiters were okay, and service was average-paced. Not too great, but not bad either. To be fair, we wandered in not speaking Italian, so I guess a lukewarm welcome is to be expected.

For an appetizer, we ordered a caprese salad with buffalo mozzarella; the veggies were super fresh, and the buffalo mozzarella was delicious. My fiance has rigatoni with ham and bacon-- it was pretty good, and the ham was bursting with flavor. I ordered a salad with tomato and buffalo mozzarella (yes, the mozzarella was THAT good). I'd say the food is above average.

Ambiance is pretty good, too; overlooking the piazza at night was fun, and it felt quite quaint.

I can not say enough about this pace. This one restuarant made our whole trip!!! While roaming the streets in rome stumbled upon this lovely restaurant and decided to sit down for "a" drink. 3 hours later we had multiple drinks and the best chicken carbonara ive ever had!!!! All said and done i was in shock our meal was so cheap! We really enjoyed the street preformer aswell!!!
