Ristorante El Norteño

"I'm half latino, and finding this place made me feel memories from when I was a child, I really loved the spices that were used perfectly, I recommend pabellòn and everything with Platano, the juices were phenomenal, I will surely return if I go to Rome again! Good job guys!"

"I was visiting Italy for 2 weeks from NYC, so going without any Latin food was so hard. Thankfully my mom and I found this spot by accident! The food was delicious and the atmosphere felt like home. As Latinas, we were pleasantly surprised with the food, so we decided to have dinner here 3 nights in a row. I definitely recommend everyone to try this lovely restaurant!"

"I had the pleasure of trying the ceviche at this cozy and vibrant spot on Via del Castro Pretorio, and it did not disappoint. The presentation was colorful and inviting, served on a generous platter with a variety of traditional accompaniments—lettuce, sweet potato, cassava, Peruvian corn, and boiled potatoes—making for a well-rounded and authentic Peruvian dish. The ceviche itself was fresh and flavorful, with tender fish cubes marinated in a zesty, citrusy leche de tigre sauce, topped with red onion and herbs. The balance between acidity and spice was just right—bright without being overpowering. The side elements added texture and depth, especially the smooth sweet potato and firm cassava. I paired it with a cold beer, which complemented the dish perfectly on a warm day out on the patio. The service was relaxed but friendly, and the atmosphere—outdoor seating under the shade—made for an enjoyable dining experience. The only reason I’m giving it 4 out of 5 stars is that while the dish was delicious, the flavors could have been dialed up just a notch for an extra punch. Still, this is a place I would happily return to, especially to explore more of their Peruvian menu. Highly recommended if you’re in Rome and craving Latin American flavors!"

"We were so glad to have found this gem! We needed a break of having pasta everyday and were blessed enough to find this latin food restaurant right by the Roma Termini station. The staff was so nice and attentive and everything was very very delicious, hurry and go now!"
