Evangelista In Roma

Nowadays it is so hard to find a truly authentic, quiet and really so tasteful restaurant in Rome’s historical center. Evangelista is just that and all that. Everything we had was so delicious, beautifully prepared and served. Unfussy, just classy old school Italian historical establishment.

An extraordinary experience in a historic, elegant venue, filled with, among other things, great works of art (Sughi, Chagall, De Chirico, Tofano). With professionalism, refined taste, and elegance, the owner guided us through the selection of highly refined dishes made with the highest-quality ingredients. The artichokes baked in a brick oven and the vignarola (a kind of tomato sauce) are particularly noteworthy...and everything else, right down to the extraordinary desserts! Bravo!

An excellent family-run Roman restaurant, now in its third generation. The signature dish is the artichoke al mattone (cooked between two bricks), a true delight. The menu features a few excellent seasonal dishes. I absolutely loved the lamb roll with potatoes and the truly excellent spiced dark chocolate sorbet. The restaurant is small and very quiet. A true gem not to be missed.
