Reviewers rave about Tiella’s pizza al taglio con porchetta e patate, calling it a masterful, savory slice. The overall vibe is of rustic, comforting Roman street food executed with warmth and precision.
“I discovered another nice place called Tiella, and here they have nothing to envy of some sacred monsters of Roman pizza. The dough is truly surprising, it seems even thinner than average. Their porchetta and potatoes pizza is absurd: you taste it and you'd never stop. They do a really good job here, also with the fried stuff. Tiella is not to be missed.”

Dishes mentioned
Lingottino Alla Cacio e Pepe
This fried lingottino has a really strong pepper flavour, and the breading is crunchy like cornflakes — it stays crunchy even after a few minutes. It's fried well, cooked well, dry, and the breading is done right. You get a nice kick of chili pepper. Way better than the McDonald's ones, honestly. I'd come back just for these.
Lingottino All'Amatriciana
Another great fried lingottino. The bucatini inside is a bit overcooked, so it breaks easily — that's my only criticism. But the guanciale is excellent, you really taste the amatriciana flavour. The breading is incredible, I'd ask him to teach me.
Supplì
The breading is amazing, you can feel it under your fingers. The sauce is good, but I found it a bit bland. The mozzarella inside was a little cold. Still, it's good overall.
Pizza Ripiena con Capocollo
This stuffed pizza is incredible. Even the last piece that had been sitting on the counter for two hours was still crunchy. The crunch is consistent on both the stuffed and regular pizzas, which is rare. The breading is crunchy but then melts in your mouth. Every bite is crunchy, like a disco in your mouth.
Pizza con Polpo e Patate
The octopus looks like it's been grilled, not just boiled and thrown on top. It's tender, cooked well, not chewy at all. You can see the perlage on top, little bubbles. It's good. Underneath there's a layer of stracchino cheese that adds flavor.
