Fodor's Review:
This is the closest you'll get to experiencing the tastes of ancient Pompeii, though the wines (fortunately) will be quantum leaps better. At times the food is so artistically presented that it seems boorish to pick up a knife and fork. Try the pasta vermiculata garo, otherwise known as spaghetti with garum pompeianum, a fish-based sauce consumed widely in Roman times. Round off the meal with the cassata Oplontis (a sweet made with ricotta cheese and honey), inspired by a famous still-life fresco found in a triclinium at the site of Oplontis. If you're overawed by the grandiose decor inside, opt for more informal outdoor dining.
