Hostaria de Pastini In Roma

Next to the Pantheon, quiet atmosphere and great food

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Wonderful Surprise Near the Pantheon! After visiting the Pantheon with our tour group, we had about 40 minutes to grab a quick bite before heading to the Spanish Steps. All the nearby restaurants were packed with tourists, so my husband and I decided to stop at the first place that had an open table — Hostaria de’Pastini. At first, we were seated outside, but with so many people walking by, we asked if we could move inside. The waiter, Lorenzo, was very kind and immediately showed us to a table indoors. To our surprise, the inside was calm and cozy, with soft Italian music playing in the background — a perfect little escape from the busy streets. Lorenzo spoke excellent English and was wonderfully attentive throughout our meal. Our food arrived quickly: my husband ordered the roasted lamb with roasted potatoes, and I had the roasted chicken. We also shared a Mediterranean salad. The portions were generous, and both dishes were seasoned beautifully — tender, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. Bravo to the chef! (We were so hungry we forgot to take pictures!) For dessert, we enjoyed ricotta cheesecake and latte macchiato, and Lorenzo even brought us a little limoncello to taste. The whole experience was so pleasant that we ended up skipping our group’s trip to the Spanish Steps and rejoined them later at the Trevi Fountain instead! If you’re in the Pantheon area, we highly recommend Hostaria de’Pastini — delicious food, warm service, and a peaceful atmosphere right in the heart of Rome.

Friendly and delicious! The seafood risotto was delicious. The carbonara and vongole had a unique, thick, Italian-style noodle texture. They were delicious. I asked for less salt, and they made it less salty. The service was excellent. I asked for the sauce to be less salty. The sauce was delicious ...

Alice was wonderful, food was delicious, and atmosphere was inviting.

Alicia is a wonderful person who gave us excellent service! We ordered ravioli with truffle butter, delicious! Paired with a very smooth and rich Pinot Grigio wine, similar to Verdejo.
