  Decided to drift in here because it was Close to our hotel and the Colosseum. Definitely was craving wood fire pizza and so glad I came here! The pizza was everything! Still thinking about that margarita pizza and fresh basil! Just Yum! Decided to try this place for dinner and ordered the lamb which I feel was a little bit overcooked and tomato basil pasta it was OK therefore I removed one star for that.

  Too big of a menu, the decor is inconsistent, (specifically the table cloths do not match the theme) and service could be better. However, the food for me was excellent! Huge kudos to the chef for dealing with the oversized menu and still making the food delicious. I "Wanted" (haha) more afterwards! If the restaurant makes some simple changes my review would easily be 5 stars, but for the small issues force me to give an honest 3/5. Fortunately, the food is the bottom line, and again, it is excellent.
  
  This is an edited review, I believe my old rating of 4 stars was too high because of the issues. I stand by that this could be a 5 star restaurant because the food is so good... but the issues are too large to overlook.

  So shocked by the low reviews! My boyfriend and I were referred by a local who loves Wanted's pizza, so we stopped by and split a house bottle of wine, calzone al prosciutto (€8 mozzarella and ham), and the pizza al salame piccante (€8.50 hot salami). It was all delicious! I could honestly say it was the best calzone I've ever eaten! The portions were huge and the meal was cheap. Service was a bit slow, but then again I'm used to NYC service speed. No real complaints!
  
  I would recommend Wanted to anyone visiting or living in Rome!

  This place was good enough for us to make it to another night of our trip. We each ordered a pizza, they are think crust and large enough to be a single serving. Could also be a good appetizer for the table. The crust is good and that's what makes a good pizza to me. we also ordered french fries, they were piping hot when we got them- what more could we ask for. They had a good beer selection and beer and pizza hit the spot after a day in coliseum, roman forum and general site seeing. it's a few blocks off the beaten path from trevi fountain to coliseum and totally worth it. Good service, good beer, good food.

  I thought that Wanted was so-so. While Wanted's location certainly ensured privacy in a romantic way due to it being tucked away on a narrow road that lead to the Coliseum, the food expectations didn't seem to be met during our visit. Pizza was on the list for lunch, and so my wife & I tried a four cheese pizza with pepperoni, as well as a sausage, onion & cheese pizza. To drink, we both had two Coca-Colas.
  
  Needless to say, both of our pizzas were underwhelming. Both pizzas seemed to be slightly gooey and soft, and without that crispness. Even more, it didn't seem to have entirely too much flavor. The four cheeses were a bit different, in that there was a blue cheese of some sorts added that really downgraded the flavor some.
  
  The two of us sat around for awhile and reluctantly finished our pizzas. Given that it was raining at the time, we were in no hurry to walk back to our hotel on Via Cavour. While our server was friendly and attentive, we took in the restaurant interior & exterior scenery (which I must say is very good). The pricing for our lunch was reasonable, yet I would prefer to return for dinner than order pizza again.
  
  Given the extraordinary number of pizzerias within Rome as it is, I would have to give Wanted's neighbors a try before ordering their pizza again. 5 stars for the scenery and location, 4 stars for the service, yet 2 stars for the lunch.
