Rome is a big city with a wide selection of places to eat. If you're looking for a budget meal or fast food, please avoid McDonald's and get an authentic slice of pizza from one of the many pizza shops – they’re on every corner!
If you prefer eating at a restaurant, try a typical Roman trattoria. Better still, trust the places our locals have recommended – we guarantee you’ll taste the best Italian food and simultaneously skip all the tourist traps. Dishes not to be missed include pizza with supplì (fried rice balls), homemade ice cream, carbonara and amatriciana pasta.

It's typical and it’s local. It’s always packed from 7–10 pm (aperitivo time) in both summer and winter. You can also enjoy a proper dinner here if you’re able to handle your drinks. It’s an amazing place full of vintage furniture and recycled objects, and it has a great atmosphere.

No matter what time you get hungry, this is a place you can count on. It’s a creative space that falls somewhere between an old Italian kitchen and a New York style loft.

If you love beer and appreciate quality and tradition, head to Rive Gauche to sample some tasty artisanal beers. The rum and whiskey selection is also great here. They serve real food such as salads, cheeses and piadine – not the standard greasy pub fare. What’s more, the prices are reasonable!

Open Baladin isn't just a pub, although it has that sort of informal, trendy atmosphere: it considers itself a part of the craft beer movement in Italy, and as such offers a multitude of Italian craft beers (which I didn't even know was a thing but there it is).

When you enter the Gregory's, you'll forget you're in the heart of Rome, just meters from the Spanish Steps. You'll feel you're somewhere in Brooklyn in a secret location where only a few lucky ones have the honor to sit and enjoy some top quality jazz in a very intimate setting. You go there to experience something different in the Eternal City.
