"Ristorante economico, la location lascia molto a desiderare e la qualità del cibo è altalenante. A volte ottima e a volte media ma sempre in qualità abbondanti e con costi irrisori (menù di pesce a 15€) Principalmente la cucina è di pesce ma non disdegna la cucina di carne con a volte dei piatti della tradizione romana che si sono persi (rigatoni con la pajata per es.)"

"Mario con il suo cappello da cuoco è veramente unico. Il locale ricorda il litorale romano degli anni settanta. È da visitare ma soprattutto da gustarne i piatti molto abbondanti a base di pesce freschissimo e pieni di sapori. Il tutto presentato dal simpaticissimo Mario."

"Mario è l'accoglienza fatta persona. Sempre sorridente. Simona gentile e così disponibili tutti fanno che l'esperienza, diventi completa. Location "eclettica", qualche volta kitsch, non sono sicuro se è un ristorante all'interno di un bar o un bar all'interno di un ristorante, fatto sta che ogni volta che ci andiamo, ci si sente come andare a trovare dei parenti simpatici che ci fanno star bene, mangiar bene e... tutto a prezzi più che onesti."
