What people say, in short

People recommend Armando al Pantheon: many diners rate the cooking highly, a couple single out the amatriciana, and a couple the tripe. Many say tables are hard to get, so book ahead. Not everyone agrees: two diners found the food underseasoned or the pasta overcooked, some think it has slipped from its earlier standard. One diner finds it acceptable but unremarkable, and one commenter calls it overrated.
