 | |  |  | L'Archetto di Fontana di Trevi: How Many Ways To Serve Spaghetti? | Tip Rating:   Satisfaction:   |  |  | |  |
There are 105 items on the spaghetti section of the menu. All spaghetti. Please don’t ask for fusilli, vermicelli, rigatoni, capellini, fettuccine, linguine, tagliatelle, campanelle, farfalle, or penne. There is none of those. Although you can order other dishes such as pizza, fish, and meat, when it comes to pasta, you have only two choices here: spaghetti or bust. Low price, good portion, this is a good place if you travel with children or on a budget. The restaurant is large and always busy so do not expect any attention from the waitstaff. One thing to remember: Make sure the waiter knows you would like to have your change back. When we paid the bill, the waiter assumed the rest of the money (15% of the bill) was the tip. He took the notes, thanked us, and never came back with the change. I have found this kind of assumption and/or expectation exist in quite a few restaurants in Rome where tourists make up a large part of clientele. The waitstaffs who deal with tourists daily -- especially good tipper Americans who are not aware that service charge is already included in the bill -- take it for granted that they earn a gratuity just for bringing out the food. The restaurant is close on Mondays.
Some dishes are better than others. The bruschette are very good, the tomato-base sauces are decent, the cream-base sauces are passable, the pesto is mediocre.
