Destination for Abruzzese arrosticini and bruschette with lively, casual vibes; great value if you lean into skewers, but service speed and occasional toughness/temperature issues can frustrate.
L'Arrosticinaro delivers what it promises: juicy, satisfying lamb arrosticini in a lively neighborhood setting with friendly, efficient service. However, quality varies noticeably across visits—some skewers arrive lukewarm or tough—and service pacing slows during peak hours, preventing the reliability expected of higher-rated establishments. It's a solid destination for arrosticini lovers and groups seeking casual, affordable Abruzzese fare, but execution inconsistency keeps it from competing with Rome's more polished dining options.
One caveat: Pacing can lag; skewers sometimes arrive after long gaps
