Daniel says: Simply the best restaurant we have eaten in in many years. Exquisite food beautifully presented, an adequate and reasonably priced wine list, and excellent service. Two visits both equally impressive. True that it isn't cheap, but we felt it represented very good value for money.Des says: 
Very classy restaurant, very reasonable lunch (buffet, 20,000 lira). Also open evenings. We had lunch and they had a wide range of choices that were vegan (as far as we could make out), mostly cold, but a few hot. I didn't make it as far as the hot! It's waiter service in the evenings apparently. It's a lovely oasis 5 minutes from the Spanish Steps at the Piazza dei Populi end of the street. They take credit cards. For some reason it is one of those vegetarian restaurants upholstered in wall to wall leather (well furniture anyway). Never could figure that out.ernie says: this was our first restaurant we went to in rome. really a good choise. it is modern, clean, and the cuisine is creative and the staff is friendly. not on the cheap side though. i paid 40 euros for a 5-course menu (delicious!) and was still a bit hungry at the end.Kristen says: This restaurant was fantastic however it was not an inexpensive place to eat for any meal of the day (since the person who last rated the restaurant quoted the price in lire - this means it has been quite a while since the review was written). I took my friend for her birthday on a Wednesday evening in February and had to wait at the bar for 20 minutes (at least we had a glass of wine while waiting) so reservations any time of the week or year are certainly recommended.
Dinner for two (and two glasses of wine each) set us back around $110.00 US. Out of all of the vegetarian restaurants we ate at in Italy, this by far was our favorite.MDR says: Just got back from Rome and ate at Margutta- full name was along the lines of Margutta Restaruante Arte- in January 2006. It was fabulous. They had an English menu and a 5-course vegan dinner for 36 Euros! Main courses were anywhere from 9-15 euros. I had a canelli bean soup with stuffed cabbage leaves that was probably the best food I had in Rome.
