    Right away, we were greeted and welcomed into this beautiful home. Debora was very personable and attentive. Fiamma is an incredible chef. She is very knowledgeable. My girlfriend and I both agreed this was one of the highlights of our short trip to Rome: authentic food and drinks, singing karaoke, and laughing around a table. Everyone was in fun spirits and added to this enjoyable experience! I would definitely recommend Debora and Fiamma to anyone who wants a new cultural experience while traveling. It was one of the best carbonara and Saltimbocca we’ve had and probably ever will until we return. Thank you again for everything!!

    Highly Recommend- Amazing Experience!

    Kelsey_S, Jul 2024
    My husband and I had an amazing experience, Debora and Fiamma were such wonderful hosts! We ate delicious traditional Roman foods and had such great conversation with everyone there! The panoramic view near their home is absolutely beautiful as well. I would highly recommend this experience while in Rome, it was the best start to our trip!

    Amazing experience

    Home cooked meal in charming neighborhood

    Monica_V, May 2024
    The home-hosted dinner in Giancolo Hill was a perfect way to wrap up our week in Rome. My husband and I (plus a very sweet group of 17 from North Carolina) had a fabulous evening at Fiamma's! We were greeted at the door by Fiamma's Aunt Valeria, who co-hosted the dinner. They talked about their family recipes and made us feel so welcomed. The meal, of course, was delicious. Antipasto, rigatoni with pecorino, saltimbocca (amazing!!), and tiramisu were accompanied by delicious wine and bread. Fiamma was able to accommodate my lactose intolerance (be sure to include all dietary restrictions when booking), so I didn't miss out on anything. There was music, singing, and lots of laughs. Some tips: Share dietary restrictions with the host well in advance. Arrive to the neighborhood early to enjoy the spectacular panoramic city view from Fontana dell' Acqua Paolo (just a short walk down the hill) and to sip a drink at the charming courtyard restaurant Antico Arco. The exact location of the home and instructions will be listed in your booking confirmation, so read it carefully. Uber to Antico Arco restaurant may be easier than the actual home's address (which is next door). Our driver was confused about where we were going. It was easy to get an Uber back to central Rome after the dinner. Ring the bell exactly at your assigned time, they need time to set up and won't be able to let you up early. Enjoy Rolly the most adorable dog, who loves everyone.

    The Most Fun I had in Rome!

    Jennifer_E, Oct 2023
    This was an unexpected surprise. It was the most fun I had in Rome and a great way to spend my last night. The family is warm, welcoming, fun and full of life and stories etc… the cutest dog in the world didn’t hurt either. An excellent meal to boot. We had some Champagne and wine and then they served a variety of after dinner liquors. The other participants were great, location was great…can’t recommend this experience enough!

    A True Taste of Rome

    Michael_P, Apr 2023
    What a great experience! So much more personable than a restaurant experience. The food was wonderful, the wine was great, the hostesses were fun, engaging, and friendly, and the conversation around the table was expertly led by the hostesses. We definitely recommend this experience for anyone who wants more of a "taste" of Rome.

    Eccellente

    Wonderful evening with a gracious host and her family. Fabulous homemade meal and conversation. Debra and her family go out of their way to ensure that you are having an amazing Italian experience in her lovely home. We would go back in a heartbeat!! Debra's fiance aka Google was very informative. Best homemade Limoncello we had all trip!
