Restaurants near Holiday Inn Express Rome-East

Ray's on the River is the Go-To good restaurant for several of my friends. We are American but of English background and Ray's combines the highest food standards with European style classical decor and ambiance, functional and elegant. The service is especially good - what I would call International standard professional, attentive without being over-so; around when needed but not always interrupting conversation to ask how the food is. The menu is really good but not huge - they do what they know they do well. The upside of this is you get your good food unusually quickly. Not cheap but an excellent special lunch for two - shared starter, two mains, shared desert comes in at $60/$70.

Visited familiy in Rome. Our server, Mikayla, was awesome! Knowledgeable and attentive. The appetizers, salads, and entrees were delicious! Three of us had fish - trout, halibut, and grouper - excellent!!!! The Ahi Tuna Nachos and Duck prosciutto crostini were great! The pear salad and Cesar salad were very tasty. Wine and drinks were well done!! Bravo La Scala! Thanks for a great evening!!

Had a lovely dinner on a Sunday evening in Rome. Seared snapper entree, off menu, was excellent. Aviel took good care of us.
