Rome Restaurants

Restaurants

For decades (centuries, some would say) the Roman restaurant scene remained static, stuck in a time and space best summed up by a singing owner and red-and-white-checked table clothes. But the 21st-century dining scene has turned out to be far less eternal. Sure, the traditional restaurants are still around (and many are worth going to), but Romans (and their visitors) can now indulge in modern takes on the local cuisine.
