In planning the most romantic holiday of your life in Rome, the one thing you’ll need to know before you get there is where to eat. After all, what goes hand in hand with love and romance if not food?
The eternal city is full of restaurants and bars and whether it’s a trattoria, pizzeria, a gelato or Michelin star dining experience you’re after, you can bet you’ll find it in the eternal city.
But that special romantic occasion, say a proposal or an anniversary or for when you really want to impress on Valentine’s Day, make a booking in advance at the best restaurant in Rome – if not Italy – La Pergola. Located at the Cavalieri Waldorf Astoria, it boasts 3 Michelin Stars and is the only one of its kind in Rome. Featuring a terrace with a spectacular view of the city, not to mention the food and wine, this is a once in a lifetime dining experience.
Other favourites, also boasting a special star in the Michelin Guide include Francesco Apreda’s Imago, Cristina Bowerman’s Glass Hostaria and Riccardo Di Giacinto’s All’Oro. Each with their own personality, the atmosphere or the food won’t disappoint. For a stylish and casual rooftop affair, head to the newest in town at Pianoalto and for young, fresh and fun fine dining, you can’t go past Antonio Ziantoni’s Zia in Trastevere.
Happy eating in the city of love!
