Fiore di Zucca's Secret?

Question

So, I ate at Fiore di Zucca last week, amazing food, seriously. The pasta was incredible, I should of taken pictures. Anyway, the waiter told me about this secret back room...apparently only locals know about it. He said it's much smaller, more intimate and they serve different dishes. Anyone been there? I'm dying to try it next time I'm in Rome.

the back room is legit, but honestly i think the regular menu is just as good. the tasting menu back there is like 60 euros and you're kinda locked into whatever they're doing that night, some of it's great but i had a squid ink thing once that was way too salty. if you go, ask for the table by the kitchen door, it's the best spot in that tiny room

Yeah it's real, I've been a couple times. The back room is tiny, maybe four tables, and they do a tasting menu that changes based on what's fresh that day. You have to email them directly to book it, can't do it through the normal reservation system.

Nah, I've never heard of a secret back room at Fiore di Zucca. Sounds like a bit of a tall tale spun by a charming waiter trying to boost their tips, maybe? It wouldn't surprise me though, Rome is full of hidden places. If it *is* real, I'm officially jealous. Let us know if you find it! Good luck on your next trip to Rome!

it's real but it's not some huge secret tbh. the back room is just their smaller tasting menu space, they do a set menu back there with stuff like raw shrimp and artichoke that's not on the regular menu. you gotta book it specifically though, just asking for a table won't get you in there
