Restaurants near Tempio Maggiore di Roma

We had the best experience here! It was Christmas Day and I made the reservation as online it did not have a set menu, and this was something I didn’t want and most restaurants had. However, when we got there, it actually was a preset menu and I was unaware of this. I have many food restrictions and could not eat anything that they had. However, our waiter Luca, was so kind and he offered to make me their best pasta they had and I agreed. Meanwhile, he suggested we order the burrata, which we did and it was honestly the best cheese I’ve ever had, super creamy. The bread was also excellent that was given to us. Luca also gave us some sparkling wine as a Christmas gift which was was very good as well. The pasta I had was indeed the best meal! So delicious and the sauce was great. My family didn’t enjoy their meals as much, but still said it was good - three ordered the ravioli and one had the cod fish. Then, to make our evening even better, as another gift, we got cups of vin brûlée which was amazing. Luca was the best waiter, so attentive and accommodating and made our night so much better. I would definitely come back here!

The food was beyond interesting without being pretentious. The cocktails are amazing. Wine list is super interesting filled with heavy hitters and other lesser known producers, if you are in the mood to try something different. For a whimsical end to your meal, try the picnic box. Our server Umberto was very kind and knowledgeable, and the sommelier was very helpful. One of the best meals of my life. Gracie Giano!

We had a great Christmas early dinner, and it was a breath of fresh air to be able to communicate with our server in both English and Spanish. We are American on vacation in Rome, and at times there's a language barrier, but here it was non existent. Menu was offered in English. The service was excellent, our server was amazing and so caring. Greater experience than those in the States.

Just a little spot but it has big food and great service. All dishes we were served were excellent. Gnocchi with four cheeses, ravioli with spinach and cheese, pappardelle ragu, caprese salad and Borghese salad with pears and walnuts. Finished with grappa and complimentary limoncello. Delicious! I would also add this was a Christmas Day lunch and service did not falter. Would recommend.
