The story
Tucked away in Rome’s Piazzale degli Eroi, this tiny tramezzini spot has earned a devoted following. Franchino Er Criminale calls it easily one of his top five tramezzini in the city, awarding a 9-minus for its “strong and well-balanced” flavors. The portions are small, he notes, but every euro feels well spent—a testament to the kitchen’s focus on quality over quantity.
The menu leans inventive, with standouts like the *Frittata alle Cipolle con Formaggio Erborinato* and the *Uovo Marinato alla Soia con Insalata di Patate e Cowy*. A *Pastrami con Pan Brioche, Cetriolini e Salsa Becco* rounds out the trio, each dish earning Franchino’s thumbs-up. For a quick, trend-conscious bite that punches above its size, this casual takeout spot is a local treasure.

“The onion frittata is delicate and nice, and the blue cheese really pushes through — it has a lot of character. The bread is small, only two bites, but the filling is generous in the front. Good flavour, very savoury.”

A 9 minus — the quality is top, easily in my top five tramezzini in Rome. The flavours are strong and well-balanced, though the portions are small. Worth every euro.

Frittata alle Cipolle con Formaggio Erborinato
The onion frittata is delicate and nice, and the blue cheese really pushes through — it has a lot of character. The bread is small, only two bites, but the filling is generous in the front. Good flavour, very savoury.
Uovo Marinato alla Soia con Insalata di Patate e Cowy
The marinated egg is amazing — it's turned slightly pink from the soy. The crunchiness of the raw veg is great, and the freshness around it is really well built. This is a 9 minus for me, honestly top quality.
Pastrami con Pan Brioche, Cetriolini e Salsa Becco
This one is a mix of strong flavours — the pastrami is good, the gherkins are big and tasty. It's a bit more delicate than the blue cheese one, but still very good. I'd say it's a solid 8.5.
