Rome is an amazing city if you’re in search of some seriously good eating, but one of the tricky things as a tourist is working out which places are authentic and legitimate, and which are going to overcharge you for badly cooked pasta. As well as avoiding dining near tourist attractions such as the Forum and Colosseum, you can check out this list which offers you three of the best dining experiences in Rome.

Pro Loco Pinciano

Offering some seriously beautiful decor to go alongside its menu of classic Roman dishes, this restaurant sure knows how to feed you well. The pasta is all made in-house, so it tastes extra fresh and delicious. Go for a sharing bowl which will provide you with a selection of traditionally cured meats, olives, cheese, and other goodies, or choose a wood-fired pizza or one of those bowls of fresh pasta.

Altrove Ristorante

Offering some fresh new takes on traditional dishes, this bright and airy restaurant is located in the Ostiense district. With plenty on offer for vegetarians, lunch here is an unfussy, simple affair, whilst dinner offers a range of options, each of them as delicious as the last.

Cesare al Casaletto

This trattoria offers a stunning range of dishes, as well as authentic, thin-based pizzas. Starters include fried eggplant and shredded beef balls, whilst mains include a traditional dish of suckling pig cooked in a rich tomato sauce. If you’ve room for afters, try the lemon sorbet or an affogato.
