Lovely evening!

Renae_H, Oct 2025

This was a wonderful experience. The service was awesome & the singers were so lovely & wonderful. The view from the patio was breathtaking. Only complaint, finding the place. The viator ticket didnt have the address on there & we struggled to find. Thank goodness we left early or we would have been late.

pamela_h, Jun 2025

this was the most brilliant evening. the location beautiful, predinner drink overlooking Navona Square which was so picturesque, the food was excellent and the opera singers and pianist made for a night go remember all with only 4couples. What an experience.

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Dear Pamela, Thank you so much for your wonderful message! I’m truly delighted that the evening was so special for you. Sharing music in such an intimate setting, with just a few couples and that incredible view over Piazza Navona, makes every moment feel unique—and knowing it left such a strong impression on you fills me with joy. I hope to welcome you again soon for another unforgettable night of music, beauty, and connection. Un abbraccio grande Paola

Best thing we did in Rome

Ryan_B, Apr 2024

This was one of our favorite things that we did in Rome. The food was incredible, wine was great, and the opera was incredible. Their voices were so powerful and full of emotion. I’d do this again! We both chose fish, and the first course had octopus which we’ve never had. And it was SO good! So tender and flavorful. Pro tip: you and your partner can order different wines! I didn’t realize this at the time, and me and my wife just ordered the one bottle of white even though I wanted red. We then saw other tables get both wines. The white wine was still amazing :)

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Awe inspiring evening

Leanne_B, Oct 2023

This was an elegant, outstanding evening. The location is awe inspiring. You are welcomed with a glass of champagne while on a Terrace overlooking Piazza Navona. The room in which the Opera and dinner are hosted is perfect for a small group. The two performers were so engaging with stunning voices. The food was very good but there were too many courses. In addition. BBQ ribs as an entree in Italy is odd. Overlooking the small detail this evening was one of our best.

Response from Host, Oct 2023

Desr Leanne, thank you for your kind words I'm so glad to hear that you enjoyed your evening with us! It was a pleasure for me to meet you and sing for you! Thank you for your suggestion I hope that your next trip to Rome is soon so that I may enjoy your company again! Un abbraccio grande! Paola

The singers were so personable, the venue lovely and because there were only five couples it was an intimate experience and lovely. The song choices were wonderful & the performers so good.

Disappointing overall

elena_g, Dec 2021

The address of the event for Piazza Navona, 14 was incorrect. I took Uber to the event, but was running around in pouring rain on piazza Navona for over 30 minutes trying to find the entrance. I stopped at the Brazilian consulate and was asked to leave. I called the phone number of the tour company in my ticket, but nobody picked up, so I left a message that I was not able to find the place. I asked waiters at restaurants until eventually one of them (at restaurant #3) called somewhere and was told that the entrance is NOT from pizza Navona, but from a different street. By that time my feet were fully wet and I had to sit like this throughout the event. I missed the beginning of the event and first three or four arias. The ticket said that we would have an access to the art gallery, but instead we were put in a very small room in a big palace and not offered to see anything else, and not even given a few line introduction for the history of the building or the room. Yes, I recognized a copy of Velasquez painting on the wall, but that was it. The artists were very nice and I enjoyed the opera a lot. The food and service were very good, but the food was not really that special given the price of the event. Overall not worth high price.

Response from Host, Dec 2021

Dear Elena, I'm Paola the soprano of the Roma Opera Omnia Ensemble I am very sorry about what happened and that you didn't find the place because the address was not correct on Viator where you booked the event. I'm so happy to hear that you enjoyed our concert It was a pleasure for me to have you at our event! We waited for you 10 minutes before starting so you missed only the first two musical pieces :) However I would like to point your attention in what is included in the "Opera Dinner" ticket. I copied it from your voucher of Viator where you booked. As you can see there is no guided tour listed because there isn't an art gallery to visit. -Exclusive and private entrance in the Innocenzo X Hall -Welcome Aperitif -Candlelight Dinner: two menus with Italian specialties, included a bottle of selected italian wines -Opera concert before Dinner and between courses, with final toast with the artists -Music presentation in English -Entry/Admission - Eitch Borromini Guaranteed to skip the lines Booking Source: Viator So I'm sorry about the misunderstanding and I hope to enjoy your company again! Un caro saluto Paola
