"Dining at this quintessential Roman trattoria-pizzeria is a delight. With a crowded interior and tables spilling onto the pretty piazza outside, it serves Roman-style thin-crust pizzas and also has a better-than-average wine list."

"We ordered the Capricciosa – a toothsome pizza filled with generous toppings of tomato, mozzarella, mushrooms, prosciutto, artichoke, and olives. As far as we are concerned, this is the best we’ve had in Rome and it was supremely delicious that we would give anything to have another serving right about now. Da Francesco dishes out authentic Italian cuisine at affordable prices."

"They make the best Roman-style thin crust pizza in different flavors than a regular Italian pizzeria—things like buffalo mozzarella with porcini mushrooms and truffles, or buffalo mozzarella with white truffles."

"Located on the vibrant Piazza del Fico, Da Francesco is one of the most famous pizzerias in Rome. Expect perfectly-crafted pizzas and a crowd of people queueing throughout the day at this simple local eaterie."

"This trattoria is rustic, packed with cheeky waiters and located in a gorgeous piazza where people-watching hits its peak between 10 pm and midnight. Order a wood-fired pizza and you will get an idea why Roman dishes are best when served simply without fuss."

"Da Francesco restaurant, Piazza del Fico in Rome, has become one of Rome’s best-loved downtown eateries for honest pizza and pasta. As much an institution in Piazza del Fico as the eponymous fig tree, the old men playing chess under its boughs, and the cheerful Bar del Fico, Da Francesco Rome is unmissable for a hearty pit-stop when visiting the city."

"There’s a lot of bad pizza in Rome -- be careful! Or be prepared, and stop at Da Francesco in Piazza Navona. A spot that draws both sightseers and natives, plan to arrive for an earlier lunch and enjoy their crisp, Roman-style pizza. When you’ve had good pizza, you’ll never go back."

"We started with a pizza topped with basil, sun-dried cherry tomatoes, and burrata. I’m convinced that fresh basil makes everything taste better. And the burrata… It’s fresh mozzarella (which is nothing like the stuff you’re probably used to seeing at the supermarket to begin with) and add cream. If that sounds delicious, its because it is."
