Ad Hoc Ristorante Review

Restaurant to discover or discover without moderation. The setting is surprising the refined cuisine and the quality welcome.
after walking the streets of Rome it is a very nice place where the dolce vita takes all its meaning!

Nothing to add
I'm only sorry for the kitchen products that are frozen.

Fantastic food and very friendly staff. Loved the experience.

This restaurant was my (large) family s first dinner upon arriving in Rome. We were a bit harried and a few minutes late and they were completely understanding. When we arrived we found that we had been put in a lovely semi-private room in the back of the restaurant. The entire family selected one of the many tasting menu options with or without pairings- each course was fabulous. The wine pairings were fantastic and the extra treats from the chef between courses were a fun and delicious way to modulate that Roman pacing during meals! It was also pretty reasonably priced, considering the quality, quantity, and service. Honestly, if you re interested in some Roman food in a slightly different atmosphere than the traditional trattoria, Ad Hoc is so very worth a visit!

Amazing restaurant. A+ service and food. The truffle menu was so good and the wine list is massive! Make sure you make a reservation in advance!

In these kitchens truffles reign, made in many different ways. The food here is special and refined. To try!

Amazing staff, great wine advice, great food, lovely setting. Will definitely return!

Excellent venue, food, service, atmosphere and all with a fantastic smoke from all staff. A must go, when in Rome.

Really nice resturant with very friendly staff. Wine selection is amazing and the staff really know their wine so a good place to try something different. Food excellent and the decor is done very well. Small so tables hard to get so book ahead of time if you want to go

Overall a very good experience. Lovely food, professional service, lovely atmosphere. The truffle dishes are a must try! However, the duck we ordered was not as tender as one might expect, and when we asked them to recommend a wine, they suggested one almost twice as expensive as what we had asked for.

It was a restaurant I stumbled upon, but the quality of the food (which Italian food is not salty and you can feel nice) is very satisfying thanks to the friendly staff. This is a very good restaurant where you will be greeted with a welcome drink as soon as you come to it, and you will be able to choose your wine, and try to match the taste of customers. Besides, I especially felt the sincerity, professionalism, and confidence in wine. Lastly, the customer VOC for Goodbye Drink Request was immediately implemented in the questionnaire at the time of payment, and I was 200% satisfied even when I left. Location, taste, service. Satisfaction in every way. The price is a bit expensive, but the burden is less.

Amazing food. Great service. Very good accommodations for gluten free. Definitely should be on the must do list!

Great wines and good food. Price a little more expensive ( 75 per person including wine - 4 course menu), but it was worth the evening!

Nice restaurant not too stuffy where the Roman cuisine is well executed. Booking essential!

Lovely food and atmosphere, me and my step daughter had a meal from the special selection with truffle and fillet beef spaghetti and it was delicious! My husband did enjoy his but wish he ordered ours! They took note on my husband commenting that it wash birthday so brought me a little desert too which was lovely and unexpected. All round would recommend but don't expect it not to cost you although worth every penny! Would happily go again and again xxx

Every time I go back to Rome it is an obligatory stop

Let me begin by saying I rarely give less than 4 stars however this place is an exception . I live in San Francisco and frequent a number of excellent high end restaurants in SF as well as France, Italy and Spain. I ordered the chef's special pasta which was way too salty and like another reviewer I was unable to finish it. My wife ordered the breaded cod but could not eat it because it was not fresh. When we explained this to the waitress she asked my wife if she had ever eaten cod before . She stated the cod was freshly flown in that day however on further questioning it appears it is dried and reconstituted. My wife is Norwegian and has been eating cod all of her life which is one of her favourite fish dishes. I am reluctant to recommend against coming to this restaurant because other reviewers seem to have had a better experience. The wine list is extensive and concentrates on Italian wines. The ambiance is wine cellar.

Amazing evening! Great food, wine and service. The staff was very friendly throughout the evening and food exquisite. Don't miss the burrata with Parma ham, a must! The meat was also great.

Great little restaurant. We had the tasting menu and everything was very good.

Very good food and absolutely excellent wine selection. Service very friendly and competent. Gladly again.

Amazing wines and dishes at a reasonable price regarding their quality. Excellent service and place too.

One of my reference sites in Italy. An exquisite treatment. Do not stop visiting it, do not disappoint.

our best choice restaurant in Rome

From service to decor Everything was perfect we could taste various masterpiece of the menu with truffles, delicious and generous. For 70 for two we had an amazing diner remarkable quality for price. we had lovely bottle of olive oil as a gift at the end. A must go!

Beautiful location not far from Piazza del Popolo. Great dishes and really amazing wine list! We will definitely return.

We took two menus to test. The food was excellent and the wine offered next to the food was the top choice for the type of dish. Get there hungry since the portions are big!

Nice environment, cozy.
My rating is 4.5
Interesting design (along all the walls there are bottles of Italian wine, including very good ones).
The wine list is not only large, but also coolly designed (each page is one wine with a picture of a sticker, a description of the wine and its composition).
The cuisine is delicious. The starter was delicious. But with pasta somehow average (in comparison with what it was during the day in Florence) for this minus 0.5.

Absolutely amazing. We booked here for a special meal while in Rome. It didn't dissapoint! Beautiful food, anything from the truffle menu is amazing... Make sure you try at least one item containing truffles, soooo good! The staff are at hand to talk you through the extensive wine menu, some reasonably price, but be prepared to spend a bit on wine. Up there with my best meals.

Very very good, slightly upscale restaurant. Had a wonderful evening with incredibly delicious food, great wine and very attentive service. In between there were even intermediate walks to the house and a goodbye gift! Keep it up! We will be happy to come back on our next visit! Price-performance ratio was also great!

Amazing tasting menu. We did not know how good fresh shaved truffle was. Great fancy dining experience at Rome. Eat at ADHOC instate of exclusion tour, $ we ll spend

One of the best meals that I have had in a very long time. The food and wine was paired perfectly

Excellent restaurant, taken fish tasting menu, very varied end dinner certainly satiated, fair price, location a little tight let's say intimate, surrounded by bottles of wine, nice staff, small place, however overall above average

One of my favourite restaurant in Rome. It's quite expensive but quality of dishes and service is outstanding. A plus for the well-stocked wine cellar. I suggest it for a romantic evening ;)

Eaten very well by spending the right. excellent wines

Very nice restaurant and nice atmosphere, but the place at the window was very draughty and cold. Overall, the quality of the food and the value for money did not meet our expectations. We have ordered different tasting variants. Here, the idea is nice that each course consists of various nicely arranged dishes and a matching wine is served per course. However, the stunning taste experience was missing. The components of the truffle tasting did not always fit well together. Simply sprinkling truffle slices on every dish does not make any finesse. Other tasting variants remained rather pale in taste. It was a pity that the wine was not poured at the table, where one could have glanced at the label and the vintage, but was put into glasses. We were a large group of 11 people and there was an exuberant mood, d. H. it was laughed a lot. That we - allegedly at the request of other guests - were asked, not to be so loud, we were a bit strange.

Lovely service, tasty food, a little disappointing atmosphere. Loved the special truffle menu. Amazing artichoke season. Thankful for the olive oil gift.

Fantastic food, very good wines and friendly service. They also listen to their customers, I was a bit cold because of the air conditioning and they immediately adjusted it. Fish menu is definitely recommended!

Nice wine selection. Awesome truffle food. Do recommend.

We had dinner for four, we came recommended off the place from friends. Staff was very forthcoming with professional input, humour and smile. The food was excellent. For their price range this place, staff and kitchen could easily bump the price a class up. 5 x Big stars in cost/ benefit. recommend

Quality wine cellar and excellent and special dishes, for a romantic and memorable dinner. You have to book a lot of time before, it's very popular :) vote 10

This is without a doubt the best restaurant in Rome, staff were very friendly and the food is second to none.

hated how all food and drinks were yellow. I give one star because of the cow brain with no yellow. It was highly enjoyable

Well-kept restaurant and fabulous dishes. Compliments

Really one of the best restaurants in Rome. Incredibly good food and very good service. At the end of the day I got a 100ml bottle of olive oil for free. You have to make a reservation in any case and then the evening will actually run smoothly. You will be welcomed nicely and immediately given a sparkling wine as a welcome drink. Afterwards we got a few more gifts and we were more than satisfied overall and had a relaxing evening in the Ristorante. Lg

Excellent restaurant, taken fish tasting menu, very varied end of dinner certainly satiated, fair price, a little tight location let's say intimate, surrounded by bottles of wine, via del Corso area precisely via ripetta, kind staff, small place, however overall superior to average

It was amazing experience. Book well ahead as this is no drop in restaurant. Hard to put our experience in words so just go ahead and book a table if you are considering this restaurant.

What a wonderful restaurant. I should say here that I am gluten intolerant. But, no worries here. The staff went out of their way to make sure my dishes were perfect. We were a large group of 9 and we were treated with the same care as a table of 2. One of our group even entertained some of the staff with napkin folds and some magic tricks. The wine list was extensive and we had the perfect guidance leading us to choose the perfect wines for our evening. When we returned home the owner even sent us copies of some of his favorite recipes. The experience was like dining at your very favorite restaurant in your very favorite city but this time in Rome. Thank you so much.

Excellent restaurant just a shame it only opens in the evening. If you arrived at noon for example? Because you didn't know, the ammo was in a nice little restaurant next to it with a scooter in its center).

Service and ambiance big 5 stars. Food could have just been better in terms of quality, especially considering the price. And slightly better on temperature. But given the ambiance and delicious wines, it is highly recommended for an evening of longer dining in Rome.

Made a reservation for 2 honeymoon couples on a Thursday night and specifically asked for the cabana/booth. They accommodated our request and throughout the meal they provided more than a few items on the house: sparkling wine, an appetizer, 2 desserts and small bottles of extra virgin olive oil for us to bring home! The service was impeccable and every item from the tasting menu we ordered were amazing. Highly recommended!!

Um ... I went to my reservation but did not expect it. I remember that I didn't eat much lamb because of the smell of lamb ... I was expecting it to be very good.

Excellent restaurant traditional Italian cuisine.
The dishes are tasty and hearty. Excellent pasta.
truffles in season (November)
Beautiful room. the walls are decorated with bottles of wine. Beautiful wine list.
A good address in Rome. Price in adequacy but remaining correct.

We came here for our anniversary and had the most incredible time. The service was top-notch, they welcomed us with a glass of sparkling white wine, pre-appetizer, and even a pre-dessert all on the house. The food and wine menu was excellent as well, we loved everything they served. To top this, they even gifted us their house olive oil which we will be taking home to cherish. Will definitely come back when we re in Rome again!

I went to a good restaurant the last day in Rome. There were no Koreans. The servers were very friendly. The atmosphere was good. It is very good to have a glass of sparkling wine as a service. Give it as a gift when you go oil like any other review. The downside is that it's cheaper than other stores, especially wine. Still, it's worth a visit for a good evening. Reservation is required !!!

Royal treatment at this intimate place. The food was very good and some was excellent (truffle pasta) but they delivered on the ambience and service.

The perfect venue for a special meal. Expensive and worth every penny.

The best restaurant serving truffle
Beautiful and delicious

Not up to our expectations, very ordinary food, and very long wait. Too expensive for what is presented even if the wines served as an accompaniment are a bit of a poor record.

i have decided for this trip to Rome that we choose restaurant based on Google rating which turned to be bad choice. The tasitng menu wasn't worth 65 euros, and it took nearly 4 hours to finish the courses. the paring wines was the only thing we could give a star on this resto.
would better go pizzeria to spend half the price we paid for.

I went on vacation to Rome this summer. My girlfriend and I were looking for a restaurant in the area and we decided to opt for this: great food, fast and very professional service. I absolutely recommend it

Nice restaurant with cozy interior. Very friendly staff. Food was so la la. Appetizer fried flowers was great with truffles, tartar not special, duck a bit too dry and scallops not very refined (a bit mushy). Great selection of wines.

Very nice experience .. staff very helpful and polite. .. they noticed us with the above! In the meantime, the dishes we tasted the carbonara fillet were great ... the pork I didn't go crazy .. other tastes are these. Especially for those who love truffle, it's an ideal choice! I think the best of what they ate in Rome.

My husband and I chose Ad Hoc as our last dining experience in Rome. It did not live up to our expectations (which were high given the reviews).
The restaurant is lovely, and our table was in a nice location. The server presented us with prosecco, a nice start.
Our orders were taken quickly (we did not choose the tasting menu, but a primi piatti and secondi). An unusually long time later, a
server came back to take our wine order (they were out of our choice) so we took a recommendation which was suitable.
My husband's trio of carbonara pasta were tasty but a bit "gunky", maybe they were not hot enough. My ravioli with an asparagus cream sauce had a nice flavor, but a were heavy for house made, compared with others I've eaten in Rome in which the dough was thin and light.
A very long time later, our second courses arrived. We chose dishes with black truffles as recommended. While the shaved truffles were generous, my duck was extremely tough and chewy, as if it had been sitting out of the pan/oven a long time. My husband's beef cheek was tasty but again, the dish seemed a bit leaden. We waited a LONG time for the check (mind you, it was a pretty quiet latish Sunday night and at the few tables around us also seemed to be anxious for their courses/the check).
In conclusion, if you are looking for a "fancy" dining experience with dishes not found at the usual Roman trattorias and restaurants, Ad Hoc fits the bill. We just expected the service and especially the food itself to be better.

Was here with his wife on Tuesday evening, December 25, 2018.

Really great restaurant.

Situation. The first impression is a small restaurant. So it is, in fact, but in the depths there are still places. All the walls have racks of wine from different years. The light is rather dim. The tables are large enough to sit comfortably behind them.

Food. They took cheese, main meat and ala Carbonara for a snack. Everything was really delicious. For food 5 +/- 5

Price policy. The price policy is probably slightly higher than ordinary cafes, but this is not a cafe, but a restaurant. For two, without alcohol, it turned out 130 euros.

Service. As well as eating 5 +/- 5. Very nice staff, all very savvy on the menu and on the pitch. There is a Russian-speaking employee.

From bonuses: with a gift to women give a jar of oil. And they give cookies to tea.

In general - uniquely 5 out of 5. I would even put 6/5

great evening, very good food
recommended

Over priced and not worth it.
Good service and great wine selection, but just go to better places.

Excellent address! Lantipasti parfait with digestivo!

Worst experience I ve had in Rome.
It took one hour for the apetizer to artive and then 2 hours for the 1st plate, which was just pasta, nothing complicated.

I ve had the home cooked salmon for apetizer, which was tasteless; asked for some lemon and then took 15 minutes for it to arrive.

Afterward, I had the pasta with octupus, on which they added parmigiano. Octopus + parmigiano taste like something went bad.

The service was nice, but obviously overwhelmed.

lost my earrings here 10 outta 10 good times tnx hoc

Just the best restaurant! Great service and really tasty menu, the truffle dishes are a must try. Love the fact they make their own pasta and produce their own olive oil and truffle items to buy! And lots of little free treats between courses. We ll definitely be back!

Good wine selection

Food could have been better - but did have good offerings for gluten-free diners

Great location near Plaza del Populo

Fantastic from start to finish. Great food and very friendly staff

One of the best meals and absolutely the best service we had in Italy.

Wow! What an experience. Everything was great and everyone enjoyed their dishes. Wine selection excellent.

I had dinner here with some friends, very good and above all kindness from all the employees

We had a fantastic dinner last night at Ad Hoc. Our favorite dish was the Spaghetti with king prawns, as well as the beef tartar with truffle. Service was a bit slow at the end, but it was a late Sunday night and with a short staff we understood. :)

I love this restaurant. It is elegant, the cutomer service is excellent and the food is very refined and deliscious.
