hi my name is Olivia and this is my trip to Italy today’s video is going to be a little bit different than the previous ones I’m currently spending a few days in Rome and whenever I think about real I think about history and food so I thought it would be a great idea to test the highest and the lowest rated restaurant in the entire city and see if the reviews are correct is the highest rated restaurant really the best are the one star reviews really accurate well today we will find out I’m really hoping none of these restaurants is going to be fine dining in order to find the restaurants I’m going to use trp visor because I think it’s got the best ranking system when it comes to clearly stating which one is the best and which one is the worst and I’m also going to double check with Google to see if the rating matches and without further Ado let’s find out so if we’re going to Rome and if we’re going to [Music] restaurant okay so we have a winner number one on sh advisor is adeso vineria bistro this has got 242 reviews and it has got a five out of five they Nam them bubbles not stars and it seems like more of a wine bar but they do have dinner so that’s good we can test [Music] out wonderful wine bar dinner this little gy was a total surprise to us we delicious food friendly stuff highly recommend cute dinner dates one of our best meals amazing experience wonderfully special meal genuine Italian food and great atmosphere so everyone seems to agree on both having a wonderful experience and appreciating the lovely staff I didn’t double check with Google and the reviews were also a five out of five and this is located in central room close to Patza naona so we got a winner the highest rated restaurant was located close to petan naona one of Rome’s most vibrant and Ling squares this stunning pza is a hub of activity filled with Street artists performers and plenty of cafes and restaurants in the center you’ll find the Magnificent Fontana di quatro fumi or Fountain of the four rivers designed by Johan Lorenzo Bernini this masterpiece features Four River Gods representing the Nile danu Ganges and Rio de La Plata the restaurant was only a 5minute walk from the Lively square and as we left behind the vibrant energy of P naona the atmosphere transformed en into a quaint Italian [Music] [Applause] charm and there it was at deso vabra a Charming spot with a stylish yet unated facade with large windows that allowed the glimpse of the inviting [Music] interior stepping inside we were greeted by an Ambiance that perfectly Blended modern Chic with rustic charmm the shelves were lined with an extensive selection of wines which added a touch of sophistication and highlighted The Bistro dedication to Fine Wine I thought the prices were slightly above average for a central ROM restaurant and the food options seem slightly fancier rather than traditional with dishes like tuna tartar or dishes with fresh truffles with not too many choices [Music] and a glass of wine ranged from 7 to [Music] 21 got our appetizers we got the vegetable clatter got sunry Tomatoes purple cabbage rot and caramelized onion I think the vegetarian platter was good however I didn’t find it distinctive or special in any way and we got rot M this really good kind of sweet this is very much like a dessert our choices for the main courses were the lasagna of the day with fresh Truffles and the tuna tartar [Music] the internet has spoken and I agree for my main course I ordered lasagna with mozzarella arti choke and truffles you need to to pay extra for the truffles which will make your lasagna double the price so let’s see this I think this is a vegetarian dish really nice there’s a lot of cheese it’s very different from a normal Las so it tasted like melted cheese basically with truffles I’m can’t really feel the vegetables and thring a little bit of the tuna as well okay this is really good really really good so I got two amoros on the house they’re different I do not remember the description of each but I try [Music] reminds me of yger meister and I know I’m a very amateure person to say this but that’s what makes me think of M this is amazing imagine almond as a strong drink very almondy and amazing and I’m taking this one and you’re getting the Jagger Meister marsipan it tastes like marsipan and then I got this huge terisu I happen to be a terisu conosur based on my Italian trips so let’s see oh my God yes this has got that so the best I ever had in my life was in Rome and it was not just in one place in Rome it was in most places in Rome and I feel like Teru from Rome does not compare to other terish around the world and this matches that you get the more yellowy mascaron that tastes like egg I don’t know it’s just different it’s terisu in Rome it’s just different and this is this is that this is one of the best terus out there honestly I don’t think my main course was the best I ever had like it was good it was very good but distinctive enough to classify it as the best but theu this this competes to the bestu I had and as I said I am Enthusiast my microphone decided to stop working when I film my Impressions after the meal so here are my conclusions the food was good but it was not a meal I would remember or want to go back for as I didn’t find it distinctive or impressive enough however it was good enough that nobody would leave a bad review the service was absolutely amazing and we also got two amarettos and some biscuits on the house which I think was really nice so is this the best restaurant in Rome probably not however I think it has the highest rating not because it is the best but because nobody had anything bad to say about it or any reason to complain which I completely understand now moving on to the low R restaurant now let’s see the worst one so I can only sort it by the highest rating not the lowest rating which means I might have to go through 10,000 restaurants to get to the last one okay I can change the number in the browser and I can get to the last page without actually having to go through 10,000 restaurants and I think we have a winner so there are many restaurants at the bottom that don’t have any ratings so I’m not going to take those into consideration but I think we have a winner in place 8,972 we got l Bera it looks fine from the pictures let’s see what the problem is worst experience in all of Italy ripoff do not eat here the owner learned Us in with promise of American breakfast and charged €17 for two eggs with sausage toast with Nutella a horrible pizza and two cappuccinos he smiles lies and presents a h bill that has no support and will not change total con artist do not this place should be in business worst experience ever I went with my girlfriend and her family and we originally walked by and the owner was out on a stool talking about how his wife makes the pasta homemade and how it was his birthday so he wanted to give us a free bottle of wine we came back a little later to take up the offer and not only did he charge us for the free wine he charged us €335 for four people okay so I was expecting the lowest radio restaurant to just have bad quality food but it seems like everyone is complaining about the same thing and it seems pretty bad scammed and angry we were charged significantly more than we were scammed I’ve never been so upset about a dining experience food was underwhelming and owner recommended the Bretta for a table of four it wasn’t on the menu so when we asked the price 15 we ordered it and he charged us each €1 15 for a total of 60 it’s a basic restaurant fairly standard average prices on the menu the owner sits on a stool in the doorway walking and shouting across the street like a mafia character out of an Italian gangster film when we’re looking at the menu the owner recommended the best bisa in Rome and for Mains meat B and carbonara went in Rome we also ordered a small beer each total approximately 4548 the B was served as two full portions of antiy So based on antiy at other places these should have been approximately each then the bill arrived wow 93 I also double checked with Google and the restaurant had 1.6 out of five stars with 1,000 reviews okay this is a different day and uh it’s a last in Rome and there is no better time to test the worst restaurant in the whole city so that’s what we’re doing we’re heading towards the restaurant now it’s uh next to get and uh I’ve never been anxious to go to a restaurant until now basically the purpose of this video is not to get scammed the comments are saying should be looking out for someone just trying to get some extra money for things that are not on the menu or that are supposed to be quy so let’s go just around the corner so the plan is to act clueless try and look at the menu not seem suspicious look at go right I’m not L on I have wine that’s English translation this is in is it is it Romano or tet Romano Romano what this one before my father my name is romano my father is dead come back Romano so off to questionable start we were greeted by the same man from the reviews and the description matched perfectly however they changed the name of the restaurant which probably happened recently since they still had a lot of Rea menus the man said the restaurant used to be Vera before when he was run by his father he also kept saying that the pasta was made by his wife just like the reviews mentioned oh okay my restaurant 89 yeah okay look this from 90 as well familiar restaurant should we get a family restaur yes you want to give it a go very clean very yeah so far we got some still water and uh apparently it’s going to show off on the Bale so far it is all true I’m going to order some tortellini we also got some water for my main course I ordered the tortellini with cream and mushroom for 9 and I thought the prices seemed really affordable for a central R restaurant we were also brought some bread for the table which the review said was going to cost us €10 and Matt got a glass of wine that is not priced on menu so we we don’t know for sure could be anything both The Men Who greeted us and the waiter were desperately trying to lure in more customers throughout our meal loudly talking to everyone passing by which made our experience uncomfortable so far it seems very accurate these are my tortillini with mushroom and this is lasagna [Music] I actually like it it’s cuz it’s his uh mother’s recipe so hot yeah the must be actually like really good so now the important moment PE [Music] this is like pre-made or like packaged kind of J not all made so we did not actually get scammed however we did pay for water which I believe was tap water off it as bottled we were brought bread for the table without requesting it and were charged for it and we also got store bought jisu for 8 it was actually difficult to speak in the restaurant because the waiters were right by our table and the owner was also right there the reviews are kind of right but it wasn’t that bad the owner did actually tell everyone that the Past end restaurant was made by his own life and was desperately trying to get more and more people in one of the waiters had the exact same approach I was not enjoying my experience and they were desperately trying to get more Customs secondly and the most important thing is the fact that they changed the name of the restaurant so on Google Maps it shows us L Vera and they still have the old ven news with l on menus however they changed their name to Restaurante Romano so there’s no sign OFA on their actual restaurant when we asked them they said we used to be called that I don’t think my tortillini were actually homemade I think they were pre packaged tortillini but the sauce was really good and the combination the whole dish I actually really enjoy it so I’m not going to complain about that the theriso on the other hand was absolutely horrible so maybe the guy is trying to to lay low with his scamming at the moment as a conclusion did I think the highest rated restaurant in Rome is really the best one in Rome maybe not it was good it was up there but I don’t think it was the best do I think the worst restaurant in Rome was really that bad it was pretty bad but probably not the worst it was a little bit better than I expected anyway this is it for today I hope you enjoy this video and I’ll see you in the next one n [Music]

hmmm… I would probably not choose the highest ranked one (and of course not the lowest one either)… what I find a good 'compass' is if there seem to be quite some locals eating and chatting happily… restaurants that try to pull/convince me to come in, would be directly dismissed… of course a great help is to know someone, who's living there – they usually know the hidden gems… however: you seem to not have been too disappointed, maybe a bit annoyed that you couldn't enjoy to be in the last one due to the loud & pushy atmosphere…
I hope that Roma overall was worth it… where are you going next? I think it was Naples?! There were very recently some earth quakes reported in that region, up to 4.4 on the Richter-scale, and there could be coming some more…
play it safe, Olive! 🙏🧡😎
I went to Adesso but they didn't do beans on toast so I left
Great video! Keep them coming 😁
That second restaurant's atmosphere made me cringe so much, my social anxiety could never 😂 It deserves that rating just for that tiramisu, not to mention the bread they charged you for 😡
i enjoyed watching your video while eating lunch! thank you very entertaining!! 🙂
Excellent video! Super idea! Good reporting. Involving … especially the tension in the second restaurant: would they cheat you? would the food be inedible? would a truck run into you out on the sidewalk? This was a great idea to expand your channel beyond through hiking. I hope you come up with additional ideas and topics and continue growing your channel. Also, ask your boyfriend to be on camera, at least briefly? 😉
