Bar Rio
Just around the corner the other direction, at Via Tuscolana and Via Saluzzo.
Smaller, more traditional quick cafe taken at the bar style place.

La Cannoleria Siciliana
A little farther, at Piazza Re Di Roma. Also a pastry shop, so sweets do not sell out like a regular bar. They are slightly more expensive, but carry cornetti with almond, hazelnut, or pistachio cream filling — very special even in Italy and highly recommended!

Lunch / Dinner
In Our Neighborhood

Pizzeria dal Bersagliere
One of Rome’s best pizzerias is very close. Wood oven pizza is normally only for dinner, and that’s the case with this place, too. Very casual (slow service).

Dar Bruttone
Roman style dishes.

Locanda Rigatoni
By San Giovanni cathedral. They are delicious.
Right now if you make a reservation via The Fork website you get 1/2 off your total — which is a real steal.

Pizzeria Sanremo
Pizza and Kebab. Few tables but mostly to-go. Open all day. Great pizza by the slice or round pizza to order. Falafel and kebab also good.

Re Di Roma Pizza – La Casa del Supplì
Pizzeria at Piazza Re Di Roma. Tables, but no table service.
Famous for their suppli (fried rice balls). Besides pizza, there is a good selection of other ready foods.

Lunch / Dinner
Outside Our Neighborhood

La Villetta dal 1940
Near the Piramide Metro. Famous for Roman food (you could bump into an Italian celebrity or soccer player here). Highly recommend the pasta (but don’t get pizza here).

Il Margutta
High quality vegetarian place between the Spanish Steps and Piazza Popolo.
This is vegetarian food than anyone can appreciate.
They do a buffet for lunch and regular menu ordering for dinner.
