Reviews Summary

Ristorante Il Pesciolino Innamorato is celebrated for its divine fish dishes, exceptional quality ingredients, and artistic presentation, creating a truly memorable culinary experience. While the intimate setting and passionate chef are highly praised, some guests note minor service attentiveness and occasional environmental comfort issues. Despite these small points, the overwhelming sentiment is one of delight and a strong desire to return for the exquisite food.

"(Translated by Google) The restaurant is small but the food is divine. The raw materials are of high quality, each course was an explosion of flavours, the plating was also beautiful. The chef is young and ambitious. This restaurant is run with so much passion. Congratulations indeed. We will be back soon. The only flaw was that it was too hot inside despite the air conditioning being on.

(Original)
Il ristorante è piccolino ma il cibo è divino. La materia prima è di qualità, ogni portata era un esplosione di sapori, bello anche impiatamento. Lo chef è giovane e ambizioso. Questo ristorante è gestito con tanta passione. Complimenti davvero. Torneremo presto. Unica pecca che al interno faceva troppo caldo nonostante aria condizionata accesa."

"(Translated by Google) Culinary experience with nothing to complain about. Flavors, smells and presentations worthy of a high-level restaurant. Heartfelt compliments to the chef. And for such a refined, studied and valorising cuisine, I cannot say the same for the environment and the service. Small tips (not criticisms) that can perhaps help you achieve more:
- In the dining room you need a smile with customers and, since there are only a few tables, greater attention. We should not call, but be attentive before the request.
- small attentions to the outside of the restaurant to accentuate and illuminate the entrance making it a little more visible and attractive
- small, meticulous measures have an effect in a small place, and a burnt out light bulb is very out of place.

You guys are young and the food is really good, we will definitely be back, so a little more effort.

I wish you a lot of luck 🍀

(Original)
Esperienza culinaria senza nulla a cui eccepire. Sapori odori e presentazioni degne di un ristorante di alto livello. Complimenti vivissimi allo chef. E per una cucina così ricercata studiata e valorizzante, non posso dire altrettanto per l’ambiente ed il servizio. Piccoli consigli (non critiche) che magari possono aiutarvi ad ottenere di più:
- In sala ci vuole un sorriso con i clienti ed essendo anche pochi tavoli , un’attenzione maggiore. Non dovremmo chiamare , ma essere attenzionati prima della richiesta.
- piccole attenzioni all’esterno del ristornate per accentuare ed illuminare l’entrata rendendola un po’ più visibile e attrattiva
- piccoli accorgimenti minuziosi in un posto piccolo hanno effetto, ed una lampadina fulminata stona molto.

Ragazzi siete giovani e la cucina è veramente buona, ci torneremo sicuramente, per cui un pizzico di impegno in più.

Vi auguro tanta fortuna 🍀"

Roberta Campana

"(Translated by Google) Well-kept environment, small but welcoming. Despite not being a fish lover, I really appreciated the flavours, combinations and attention to detail that the chef gave to each course.

(Original)
Ambiente ben curato, piccolo ma accogliente. Nonostante non sia un amante del pesce, ho apprezzato tantissimo i sapori, gli accostamenti e l’attenzione al dettaglio che lo chef ha donato a ogni portata."

The Chosen Table

Wondering Where to Eat in Fiumicino, Italy? 18 Places From Simple to Fine Dining

Il Pesciolino Innamorato is a very pleasant intimate restaurant with just a few tables in a back road, parallel to Via Torre Clementina. It was originally opened about a decade ago as an antipasteria (appetizer restaurant) which is a first of its kind in Fiumicino, by Chef Diego Gioia, wherein you can order a succession of appetizer dishes instead of the regular Italian courses. After a few years, the menu widened to more courses of pasta, risotto and main.
