Borghiciana Pastificio Artigianale

Great restaurant in Vatican city! This small restaurant with only 7 tables serves incredible pasta dishes.
We came at 4pm so there weren't any queues.
My tip is to only come in a pair, because the restaurant would have trouble accommodating if you have more people. We ordered the lemon-orange and carbonara pasta dishes and they both sublime! And surprisingly I really like the lemon orange pasta as it is refreshing and delicious.
I would absolutely order these two again if I visit next time.
To be honest, this place just serves great pasta and you won't go wrong ordering any other pasta dishes. Highly recommend if you are in the area!

This was by far one of the best meals I've ever had.
They have strict rules on when they close, and they abide by them no matter how many people are left in line.
The space is small, but it's well worth the potential wait time.
Everything we tried was exceptionally made, and you could taste the love/quality of the food.
The owner was extremely hospitable and gracious, and we had a great conversation with him as he buzzed around serving all the tables.
Definitely make this a destination for your lunch or dinner plans in Rome!

What can I say about this dainty restaurant in close proximity to the Vatican city? Simply exceptional! Yes, it's small with only a few tables and you might have to wait to be seated when it's busy, but truth be told, it's worth the wait! The atmosphere was absorbing as the host was interactive and entertaining.
Cosy too. The food was tasty and delicious and exceeded our expectations.
Above all, despite the location, it was very affordable. A must go on a visit to the Vatican city!
