About Cacio e Pepe

The quiet garden space in the back is a popular choice for diners.

The restaurant has a pleasant vibe, and the staff and service are awesome. Customers have enjoyed sitting in the garden, even when the front of the restaurant was not busy. The homemade pasta, tossed with black pepper in the cheese wheel, is amazing, and the wine selection is great. The bread with homemade tomato sauce is also a highlight. Overall, Cacio e Pepe is a neighborhood gem that impresses both locals and visitors alike.
