Food
La Licata operates on the atmospheric Via dei Serpenti in Monti and covers unusually broad ground for a restaurant this size, with reviewers highlighting both a strong dinner service and a less common brunch offering that one visitor calls a rare find in Rome. Fast, attentive, and genuinely funny staff come up repeatedly in reviews, alongside a small, often crowded room that adds to the neighborhood charm. With 5,574 reviews at 4.5 stars, it has clearly built a wide and enthusiastic following. It's a flexible choice — good for an easygoing weekend brunch as much as a proper Monti dinner.

What people say
"Wow!! Just Wow!! Everything about this restaurant is excellent!! From the phenomenal service (your servers are the VERY best, fast, attentive, and funny!!), to the food (absolutely delicious with great portions) and to the view (you can look at the Colloseum from the outdoor seatings). La Licata is definitely one of the most memorable moments of our visit to Rome."
