Best gnocchi in Rome?

My husband and I will be in Rome on a Thursday in October. Can anyone recommend the best restaurant(s) to try gnocchi for a Thursday lunch?

      We lived in Trastevere for 2 months a few years ago and went to Checco almost every Thursday for gnocchi........................here's their website

      I've posted a pic of one of our Thursday lunches - we asked for a tomato/roasted pepper sauce (not on the menu) which they were happy to do.

      Also - here's a link to our blog with more pics - I hope they don't yank it though.....

        In my opinion, you cannot beat La Piazzetta on Thursdays, the traditional gnocchi day in Rome.

          I recommend Matricianella (near the Senate). Their gnocchi were delicious. Also loved the gnocchi at Ditirambo in Campo de Fiori.
