My husband and I ate here on 15th February (My husband's birthday) We had a truely wonderful evening in very opulent surroundings. The seafood menu was really interesting and the food superb. Presentation of the food and service were both excellent. The staff even presented my husband with a small cake(delicious) including a candle. On arrival we had a complimentary glass of presecco and an amazing raw scallop starter. We live in a Cornish village and have been to Jamie Olivers 15 restaurant and Rick Steins so appreciate good seafood and can honestly say that Sa Tanca was a stunning restaurant with exceptional food. Thank you everyone there for making us feel so special! We will be back.

We had a great meal there last night in the run up to valentines weekend. The team here are very attentive, the food was very tasty, in particular the pineapple and almond raviolli dessert which was excellent. The restaurant is cosy with regal decor and the complimentary Presecco on entrance and mussels with the food were nice touches. If i could i'd give service and value both 4.5 stars so i split one 4 and one 5. Only minor issue is the service is very Italian in pace but this may be a plus for people who like to stay longer! Prices of dishes were reasonable and reflect the quality and overall restaurant but some may like them to be a little cheaper. Starters in the high teens (euros) and mains in the 20-30 range. When we're back in Rome we'll be sure to pop in again.

In order to erase the stress of everyday working life, the Sa Tanca Crostaceria helps you to make peace between the shades and the corpus using the sublime quality of the food and the excellent service. This is an experience not to be missed! Alfredo

We decided to celebrate my birthday there and we got the feeling than most Iatlians only go tjere in celebrations. I believe because of the price, which was fair but still pricy. We took the degustacion menu and it all costed 140 euros for the two of us. The food was good and the atmosphere was very Romantic. The service was nice although one of the employees spoke English while the girl could hardly be understood.

What a great discovery!

Had heard about this oyster bar so we thought we'd check it out. Great location as we were going to the theatre Eliseo. Not many oyster bars in Rome! We walked in and were greeted with a glass of prosecco. Then we sat at the bar and had our fill of oysters, raw shrimp and champagne. If you're into shellfish, this is a great place! Great decor and great staff. Next time we're coming back for dinner!
