What people say, in short
Tipo 00 draws recommendations for its food and pasta. One diner considers it better value than Osteria Ilaria, while another reports difficulty getting a seat. Dissent includes disappointing meals, a poor service experience and a commenter who thinks it has declined. The positive overall support does not erase those food and experience complaints or establish a current booking rule.
