Piatto Romano In Roma

Everything was delicious, nothing to complain about. It wasn't entirely fair that the waiter offered us a grilled porcini mushroom off the menu without specifying the price, which ended up costing 16 euros. An absolutely exaggerated price.

Everything was great. The best around the market.

Homely Italian atmosphere, delicious cuisine, be sure to try the oxtail🫶🏻 and homemade wine

we had a great dinner for two couples in Piatto Romano. My top recommendations are the sweet and sour onion on the starters, and the cacio e peppe for main course. The service was very friendly from everyone, especially with Ella. Thank you 🙏

Excellent dinner. Artichokes for an appetitzer were lovely, beef tartare was ground chuck and not quite the texture for us but the passionfruit sauce was lovely. Abeautiful bottle of red was recommended by the waiter. Cacio pepe was the best we had in Rome, rabbit was very nice, black garlic pasta was interesting a d enjoyable as well.

Amazing food, good selection of great wine, friendly service. You have got to try any and every vegetable they serve. Outdoor seating under the lights is the way to dine and take in the local atmosphere. Feels like a family friendly local restaurant.

It's not just the name :) Excellent Roman dishes, tradition, and the search for quality raw materials, and not the usual ones. An extension of home

In the Roman culinary landscape, where the line between authenticity and tourist hype is increasingly blurred, Piatto Romano stands out as a true oasis of culinary resilience. Located in the heart of Testaccio, the neighborhood that historically gave birth to the most visceral Roman cuisine, this restaurant is an essential reference point for gourmets seeking authentic flavors, those codified by time and memory. The setting exudes a sober elegance of times gone by, far removed from the fleeting trends of contemporary design. The warm and welcoming rooms evoke the atmosphere of historic 20th-century trattorias, where conviviality is a serious matter and the table becomes the center of the world. There is no room for superfluous frills: here, aesthetics are entirely at the service of hospitality, creating an ideal atmosphere for long Sunday family lunches or dinners where the food demands the utmost attention. The service moves with impeccable synchronicity, governed by a "Roman savoir faire" that combines professional composure with a profound, yet measured, cordiality. The dining room staff demonstrates an encyclopedic knowledge of the ingredients and local traditions; there's no flattery, but a dignified pride in describing the daily specials and recommending the most appropriate pairings, just as the innkeepers of old did, preserving the deep bond between guests and their kitchen. The culinary offering is a true monument to Lazio gastronomy, with an almost philological focus on the "fifth quarter" and seasonal dishes. The Cacio e Pepe is a testament to technical mastery: the creaminess, achieved exclusively by expertly balancing the pasta cooking water and the Pecorino Romano DOP, envelops the spaghetti flawlessly, enhancing the pungent note of freshly ground pepper. However, it's in the main courses that the cuisine reaches heights of absolute excellence. The Coda alla Vaccinara (Coda alla Vaccinara) is prepared according to the strictest traditional standards: the meat, slowly cooked for hours, is exceptionally tender and sits in a thick, velvety sauce, enriched with that subtle hint of cocoa that defines its ancient aromatic profile. Also noteworthy are the Carciofi alla Giudia (Jewish-style artichokes), golden and crispy like a rose of puff pastry, expertly fried without a trace of greasiness. Ultimately, Piatto Romano doesn't chase the flattery of avant-garde critics, but rather pursues the perfection of the classic with intellectual honesty. It's a precious address, a fundamental stop for anyone wishing to understand the true nobility of popular Roman cuisine, celebrated through rigor, respect for ingredients, and a passion that stands the test of time.

Excellent suggestions to round out our order at our request leisurely and delicious. Great use of ingredients feels very authentic simply prepared delicious.

Excellent dishes of authentic Roman cuisine. The rigatoni with pajata is phenomenal!
