Roma (eat + drink)

Welcome to Rome! I know this city can be overwhelming, so I'm here to help! I've divided this guide in various sections (neighbourhood names). These are my favorite places to eat and drink in the Eternal City Please remember it is always best to make reservations while in Rome. If you show up to a restaurant and they are fully booked, they most likely send you away, there is no concept of waiting in line for the next table to free up in Rome (there are some exceptions like most pizza places) Tipping in restaurants is not expected, but it is always very much appreciated! Please remember that tips can only be left in cash so make sure to always have some smaller pieces on hand (it is also preferred when paying for small things like a coffee or water bottle in a bar)

Discover the Top Areas to Travel to in Italy and Why

Italy’s natural beauty and cultural richness have inspired wanderers and artists for centuries.

Rome

Rome, the Eternal City, is a paradise for history-lovers and art enthusiasts. This magnificent city is home to some of the world’s most iconic landmarks, like the Colosseum, the Pantheon, and the Vatican City, where the jaw-dropping Sistine Chapel is located. Rome’s cobblestone streets, picturesque piazzas, and quaint alleys are filled with chic cafes, pizzerias, and gelato shops, where you can taste the mouth-watering Italian delicacies.

Tuscany

If you’re looking to unwind in rolling hills, surrounded by vineyards and rolling hills, then Tuscany is the place to visit. This region offers visitors an opportunity to savor some of Italy’s finest wines and olive oils, as well as admire breathtaking views of scenic villages and gardens.
