• Located in Rome.
• Food undercooked/soapy tasting; rude staff.

“The food was, simply put, not very good. I had a basic pasta dish and it tasted 'soapy/chemically'. My husband chicken was rare in the inside, which of course is a very dangerous preparation for chicken. We complained to the staff multiple times but our waiter (and the other waiters who we flagged down) remained indifferent to our requests, and at times down right rude. In a city that boasts some of the best restaurants in the world, please do not waste your time at this sub-bar establishment.”

• Proximity to piazza Novena.
• Bland flavor, rude service.

“Based on the recommendations on this site, my wife and I thought we would try this restaurant during a recent trip to Rome. We were severely disappointed. We tried a number of appetizers and ordered first and second courses and none of the items we tried on the menu were of the same quality as we found elsewhere in the city. The flavor was very bland and some dishes came out rather cold. Still we tried to enjoy the evening as it is close to beautiful piazza Novena, but our server was downright rude. My wife and I have both worked in the service industry in our youth so we're not expecting someone to dote on us hand and foot we just want common courtesy. And there wasn't a language barrier either he spoke very good English or we know some Italian. He was simply disinterested, brash and gave the impression that we were wasting his time. One last note, I am the kind of person who gets dirty silverware at a restaurant and just cleans it himself with a Napkin instead of complaining, but if this sort of offense bothers you, than Bram ante fails on this level as well. This is easily the worst food and dining experience we had in our three weeks in Rome. There are dozens of restaurants in the piazza Novena area a number of which we tried (but not mentioning here to keep the objectivity of this review in tact) and its a safe bet that you have a far superior experience by dining elsewhere.”
