Restaurants cuisine régionale Lazio

What a beautiful restaurant in the heart of the city! Ideal for a candlelit dinner in a neat and refined setting. The cuisine is traditional and creative, offering a combination of flavours that are always carefully studied. Among the suggestions: spaghetti with pork cheek and pecorino (the famous gricia sauce), cod soup, and the incredible pigeon in a saucepan where the presentation has its full part to play. The welcome is warm and the waiters are always ready to tell you the wine suitable for the dishes you will choose. To discover!

Don't expect haute cuisine, but unpretentious pizzas, salads, bruschettas and paninis at low prices. The Bismark salad (radish, lettuce, tomato, carrot, mushroom, artichoke, cooked ham) was delicious, but at a low price. The attraction here is the terrace, in the shade at midday and in the quiet, just behind the Pantheon, and a simple menu recommended for lunch, with friendly service. The place is very touristy during the day, but in the evening is a pub frequented by students, making it an authentic place to have a drink and nibble on a charcuterie-cheese board. Good range of draught beers.

Beautiful list of traditional dishes at Na Fojetta's table, a few steps from the cathedral. Pasta with asparagus, boletus or fried zucchini flowers, artichoke strudel: tasty dishes that follow the seasons and the arrival of the market. The restaurant also offers a wide choice of delicatessen and artisan cheeses as well as good wine from its own production. The plates are copious, everything is handmade, from pasta to desserts, and the welcome is smiling. A beautiful address in Frascati.

Located in the tourist streets around Piazza di Spagna, this restaurant is very popular, and its terrace is often packed. What sets it apart from its neighbors is its menu, which offers both Roman and Italian specialties, with a wide variety of meats and fish. Discover zucchini flowers and pan-fried chicory, pistachio-crusted pork tenderloin with smoked cheese... The menu is extensive, the dishes copious and reasonably priced for the area. What's more, the service is friendly.

Here is a gourmet address that will satisfy the biggest appetites! Everything here is indeed delicious, tasty and hearty, according to the canons of traditional Roman cuisine. But the real highlight of this address is of course its long-lasting (up to two or three days!) and oval-shaped pizza: the famous Roman pinsa. It seems that the ancient Romans were already eating it... Two other addresses in Rome in the San Lorenzo and Parioli districts.

A traditional restaurant open since 1870, La Matriciana serves Roman cuisine (as its name of pasta with tomato sauce and guanciale suggests!) on white tablecloths, with old-fashioned waiters, in a beautiful dining room or on a small, intimate terrace with trees in the Termini district. In short, the Italian cliché so sought-after in Rome, without being a tourist trap! A wide choice ofantipasti, as well as tasty black truffle tagliolini . The service is very friendly. All in all, a good address.

Here is an address like we would like to know more about. With its checkered tablecloths, rustic decor and refrigerated display case of all kinds of cold cuts, this osteria is a favourite of the locals. Here, the Romans come to queue up to taste the famous porchetta d'Ariccia (the roasted piglet, the speciality of Ariccia): a must! Antipasti, pasta, soups and other meats are devilishly good and served copiously. Only one question: will you still be hungry enough for dessert?

The cuisine here is popular, generous and tasty, in the art of the recipes of yesteryear. House specialties include the classic bucatini all'amatriciana (pasta with a tomato-based sauce, dried pork cheek and pecorino), as well as a wide selection of Roman-style fried dishes. In keeping with tradition, the menu will feature quinto quarto (offal) on Wednesday, gnocchi on Thursday, cod on Friday and tripe on Saturday. The wine list is dedicated to hand-picked Lazio vintages. Don't forget to book!

The oldest trattoria in the city, dear to the inhabitants of Viterbo. Lovers of authenticity will be delighted: the atmosphere is relaxed, the dishes simple and tasty and the addition more than correct! Not to be missed, the chicken alla viterbese, seasoned with garlic and spices. For the history, the restaurant is called Tre re in homage to its fresco representing three kings. This one is supposed to bring good luck to whoever touches it. It is said that during the Second World War, soldiers went in large numbers and that one of them even wanted to buy it!

Just a stone's throw from the Trevi Fountain, this very touristy restaurant distinguishes itself from its neighbors by the speed of its friendly service and its pleasant terrace in the heart of the pedestrian district. But what makes it original is its menu of Tuscan specialties, a change from Roman cuisine. Oven-roasted tomino cheese with croutons and fig jam or mashed beans with sautéed chicory can precede a hunter's rabbit, grilled lamb or suckling pig in the style of Firenze, washed down with a good Chianti of course.

A friendly wine bar in the heart of the medieval centre, managed by three brothers who offer a seasonal cuisine according to the market's arrivals. Simple but always tasty regional flavours, such as chicory soup, meatballs in tomato sauce or gnocchi with gorgonzola and red radishes, for a warm local brewery atmosphere. Also taste the very good antipasti of local delicatessen and cheeses, accompanied by a good wine from their selection. In summer, you can eat on the small terrace.

In the south-east of the city, a small wine bar with catering service faithful to the most authentic Italian culinary tradition. Among the best dishes (between € 5 and € 10) are peasant soups, homemade pasta, cold meats and cheeses with raw milk, as well as desserts as unusual as a chocolate foam and its compote compote or a chestnut cream to "minute" whipping.

This small Sicilian restaurant is ideally located just a few steps from the imperial forums, housed in a small, obscure, but very cool room in the summer whose entrance is discreet, from large stairs. Kitchen and family service, goguenardes of the boss, beautiful plates at reasonable prices, the address is perfect for a stopover at noon. Delicious antipasti plate.

Some like it, others find it overdone: The Cantinola is a tourist restaurant where prices are really affordable, but low-priced plates. The whole is nevertheless correct without being exceptional, especially fish dishes, and the boss who speaks all languages offers a rose to the ladies at the end of the meal. Practice on Sunday noon when everything is closed.

This fishmonger's restaurant is a novel and practical concept when you don't know the names of the shellfish, seafood and fish you're after. All you have to do is point to the fish on the display, because here, too, fish is sold by weight. It's bound to be ultra-fresh. We recommend tasting raw antipasti, tartars and carpacci of the highest quality, or cooked, according to your taste. If you like fish, this is an address to remember. Another address in Rome, via Appia 234, near the Re di Roma metro station.
