Travel bucket list idea:

Last updated: 26 June, 2023
Expert travel writer: Rebecca Winke

Roman cuisine is more straightforward than many visitors expect, dominated by pastas and pizzas made using simple local ingredients.

In Rome, seasonal eating is a way of life. In winter find carciofi (artichokes) along with puntarelle: a green enjoyed with an olive oil/anchovy dressing. Lentils (lenticchie) are another wintertime staple.

Spring tables showcase meaty fava beans and zucchini flowers (fiori di zucca).

Summertime is focused on fruits like peaches (pesche) and watermelon (cocomero).

What to try

Tuck into Rome’s best-known dishes – spaghetti alla carbonara, amatriciana or gricia, and porchetta (roast suckling pig). Other star staples include saltimbocca, fried artichokes and courgette flowers.

Also see our round-up of traditional Italian foods to try in Italy.

The dining scene

As a general rule, Italians consider food sacred and something to be savoured and enjoyed with friends and family. The exception to the rule is Roman street food. A huge part of the Eternal City’s lifestyle, it’s wholly acceptable to have a stroll while licking a creamy gelato or munching on crunchy suppli.

Meals are best taken in an open-air trattoria (family-run restaurant), ideally with enough time to enjoy the conviviality of the experience and plenty of local wine.

Another way to experience Roman ‘fast food’ is by partaking in the apericena – a more substantial version of the pre-dinner aperitivo. For the price of a glass of wine or cocktail, you’ll have admission to a buffet of authentic Roman finger foods.

Getting there & doing it

Good food in Rome is pretty much ubiquitous. For the best service, value and quality, though, try and avoid the obvious tourist haunts.

The streets around Campo de Fiori and Piazza Santa Maria in Trastevere are crammed with good, relatively cheap trattorias. The Jewish Quarter and Via Portico d’Ottavia are full of restaurants serving traditional Jewish-Roman fare.

The most exclusive restaurants are usually found in the top hotels.

When to do it

Most Romans eat three meals a day. A typical breakfast consists of a cappuccino and cornetto taken at a local bar, while lunch is consumed at about 1:30pm. Commonly, dinnertime in Rome takes place at 8pm, therefore you shouldn’t expect to find restaurants open for business before 7:30pm.
