Dining out is one of the things that Romans enjoy doing. So ready your appetite and sense of adventure when visiting the city.

Capo Boi has a glamorous, high­end ambience that is reminiscent of the 1920s. It is a Sardinian ­kitchen restaurant that that serves exquisite seafood dishes.

If you crave for pizza, Farinè is the place. This husband and wife­run locale is exceptional given their training at the National School of Pizza. The menu consists of different options with dough that is divine! It is located at Via degli Aurunci, 6/8.
