"This restaurant was not our first choice but we were directed here by another restaurant that was full. It did not disappoint. The service was very friendly, food was okay. You also get to see them change the table cloth every each customer. Even if you have to pay for this (called Coperto), it is worth it."

"Ristorante dall’ambiente classico, con tavoli esterni ed interni, quest’ultimi abbastanza concentrati, in uno spazio non molto ampio. Proposti sia piatti di mare che di terra. Le pietanze provate sono state molto gustose, ottimi i tordelli, così come l’abbinamento tra l’arrosto e il lardo di colonnata. L’antipasto toscano propone una buona varietà di prodotti e la torta di riso, fatta in casa, è deliziosa. Il servizio è professionale, unica pecca una tovaglia non proprio pulitissima. Prezzi corretti per quanto proposto. Coperto 2 € Acqua da 0,7 lt 3 € Antipasto Toscano 15 € Tordelli alla Carrarina 12 € Arrosto co lardo 14 € Torta di riso 6 € Caffè 2 €"

"A seguito della visita annuale alla elogiabile mostra di quadri esposta a Palazzo Cucchiari, abbiamo seguito il consiglio di una professoressa di Carrara per il pranzo: Ristorante Roma. Crostini di acciughe, Tordelli, Baccalà al forno, sformato di verdura, bevande e caffè. Il tutto ottimo! Presentato bene, cucinato al momento e servito in piatti caldi. Francesco ci ha accolti in modo gioviale e trattati con semplicità e professionalità. Rapporto qualità prezzo da appuntare. Complimenti. Ido e Daniela"
