Rome restaurant reviews
-
Arco di S. Calisto
A short but varied menu, mostly consisting of Roman dishes, in Trastevere.
-
Ristorante Life
Opening just three years ago, Ristorante Life is already a very well-known Roman restaurant.
-
Ambasciata di Capri
Each room is covered with frescoes which evoke the atmosphere of the Italian island.
-
Enosteria Capolecase
A real Roman restaurant a stone’s throw from the Fountain of Trevi.
-
Ad Hoc
Just off the Corso is this reliable destination for taster platters of Roman and Mediterranean specialities.
-
Trattoria de ‘Gli Amici’
The provision of soft rugs over the back of each chair – just in case you needed to wrap up – was the first indication that this isn’t just any Trattoria.
-
Matricianella
Serving up classic Roman cooking for more than 50 years, it couldn’t look more traditional if it tried.
-
Vecchia Locanda
Small, charming, cosy, friendly restaurant with first class food and wonderful service.
-
Virginiae
Good home cooking Roman-style in this family run restaurant – Mamma is doing a sterling job in the kitchen.
-
Sette alle Sette
There’s a whole new world down some atmospheric candle-lit stairs in the basement – deliciously cool even on the hottest day.
-
La Focaccia
A genuinely Roman menu offers substantial dishes alongside a broad range of pizzas.
-
Caffé Novecento
Not so much a restaurant, more a place to go whenever you need to sit down and relax.
-
da Tonino
One of Rome’s best kept secrets; food doesn’t come more honest than this.
-
La Scaletta degli Artisti
One of Rome’s old established restaurants serving local specialities.
-
Caffé del Parco
Take a break from peering at animals with a long lunch at the zoo cafeteria.
-
Camponeschi
One of the most romantic restaurants in Rome, exquisitely set in Piazza Farnese, just to the side of Palazzo Farnese – the setting for Act II of Tosca.
-
Before
“Concept” restaurants are still a rarity in Rome, but Before is attempting to fill the niche.
-
Locanda Pasta e Ceci
Calabrian cuisine makes a great change from the standard Roman fare.
