Piazza de’ Ricci, 144 , 00186 Rome
Nearly a century old, Pierluigi has always been a popular spot with locals and visitors. It's known for its super fresh oysters, seafood pastas and local fish: the kitchen sources produce exclusively from the nearby fishermen, before designing a menu around what’s been caught that day.

Whether you’re picking up fresh slices of cured meat from the deli or taking a seat amongst the shelves stacked with dried pasta for dinner, Roscioli is well worth stopping by. Dine on delicious Italian dishes like cacio e pepe, then buy a bottle of olive oil to take home.
Via dei Vascellari, 29, 00153 Rome
This family-run trattoria serves up Roman classics like carbonara, meatballs with tomato sauce, and oxtail stew in a cosy, rustic setting. Their excellent tiramisu is not to be missed.
Via di S. Cosimato, 14/A, 00153 Rome
For when you want a fresh scoop of creamy gelato, Otaleg is the place to go. Flavours change with the seasons, but the delicate, nutty pistachio ice cream remains a favourite all year round.
