Piccolo Buco Roma - set mere steps from Rome's famed Trevi Fountain - is where Cooper's Hawk Founder, Tim McEnery, first discovered Chef Luca Issa and his wonderful pizza. The ingredients were deceptively simple: creamy, indulgent mozzarella mingled with a bright and bold tomato sauce. But it was the extraordinary, tall crust - crisp on the outside yet cloud-like at the center - that won his heart. He couldn't wait to introduce America to a pizza this special!

    Food here is incredible. Server was friendly but not exceptional. Bussing was aggressive- removing plates as last bites were still being chewed and water glasses over filled. Dessert here is the best! Don’t miss the butter cake. One of my favorite restaurants around!

    We had a truly lovely time at Taurasi. Everyone was so friendly and competent, the food was absolutely delicious, and the ambiance was warm and inviting. Servoce was quick, but nobody made us feel rushed at any point. The noise level was moderate, loud enough so others couldn't hear you but you could still hear everyone in your party. We will definitely be back!
