An evening well spent! - From the moment we booked with the “Casa Club”, Nicolo, Daniela’s son, was so attentive to every detail. While we did help prepare delicious dishes with the D’Elia’s, the cultural experience and opportunity to connect with this authentic, loving family, was quite possibly the highlight of our 10 day trip. We looked at photos, told stories, laughed, and laughed some more. The food was outstanding but the relationships formed will last a lifetime. If you are considering booking, don’t hesitate, don’t delay. This is a must do if you are going to be in Rome!

This is really a private family cooking a meal with you - This was so much fun! Nicol, Daniela and Mario will make you feel like part of the family. You will spend time cooking a delicious meal and spend even more time talking, laughing, and getting to know each other. They were happy to provide tips to recreate this meal at home. After two weeks of rushing to meet trains, flights and tours this was a perfect way to relax and finish our vacation. Take advantage of the hotel pick up service. I think public transportation would be diffulicult and a taxi would be more expensive.

Experience like a local - Such a beautiful experience! Nicolo picked us up easily from our Airbnb, and we arrived in a quaint neighborhood outside the city centre. We enjoyed great conversation, and his mom and aunt kept the foods and drinks flowing the whole time! My teenagers said this was one of their favorite experiences in our two weeks in Italy. Learning how to make the meatballs, bruschetta, and pasta was really enjoyable! Then homemade limoncello! Will miss our new Italian familia!

The highlight of our trip - This will be a memory our family will cherish forever. Daniela and son Nicolo and husband Mario and his cousin were so welcoming and charming. Their home is beautiful and they are even more beautiful as a family. Enjoying a meal with them and getting to know the culture was a complete joy. We have friends for life!
