Eating Out in Rome
Edit ThisTre Scalini
Gaynor Andrews
Trastevere is Rome’s traditional restaurant ghetto – touristy now, but still the home of some fine and reasonably priced Rome restaurants. Testaccio is also a popular evening place with a good selection of restaurants and pizzerias. Of course there is a huge selection of both Italian and international restaurants, but we live for the "good in Italy" version and warmly recommend the local cuisine.

Special flavors near the holidays.

Spirito di Vino
Edit ThisSpirito di Vino - Wine Cellar
This restaurant is recommended by several guides and rightly so.
The owner, Romeo (who waited on us), his wife (who is a scientist when she's not making magic in the kitchen) and their son Francesco (the sommelier) have a gem of a restaurant just a few blocks off Via Trastevere.
Everything we had to eat was fantastic, as was the wine. And the diners around us - some of whom we got to know over the course of our three-hour meal - seemed equally impressed.

Ristorante Abruzzi
Edit ThisA best buy. Located about mid-way between the Trevi Fountain and Trajan's Column. Small restaurant. Run by same family for all of the 35 years we've been going there. Quite inexpensive. Cannelloni Abruzzi the specialty, but everything well prepared. (Get there early for the specialty; they run out early!)

San Remo Pizzeria
Edit ThisLocated in one of Rome's hottest nightlife districts -- Testaccio, San Remo Pizzeria is the best place in Rome for pizza. Patrons can choose from an assortment of toppings to pile onto a big thin-crust pie. San Remo is extremely popular, so get here early or you may have to wait in a long line -- especially if you want a seat outside. Hours: 6:30 p.m.-1:00 a.m.

Renowned for its absolutely remarkable “tartufo”.
Located in the vibrant and bustling Piazza Navona where you can watch local artists and entertainers play while you eat and drink, is just the perfect way to relax and while away some very happy hours.
Delicious Roman and Italian recipes served up by some very lively and welcoming waiters who go out of their way to be helpful. they are very entertaining in their own right!
"Crazy butterflies" - farfalle in a rich creamy sauce are particularly mouthwatering and the Tre more..
