Pasta
These restaurants serve more than just pasta, but are worth coming to for pasta specifically.
Roscioli Salumeria con Cucina
@itslauraining
Roscioli has become quite popular in the past decade, expanding their brand in Rome and even opening a store front in New York in 2023.
It's popularity has made reservations hard to come by and they now require a 25 euro deposit when booking (which they never used to).
BUT, the food is excellent. I tried three pastas here and I recommend you do the same. Cacio e pepe and carbonara were great.

Roma Sparita
@itslauraining
Famously known as Anthony Bourdain's favorite restaurant in Rome when he was filming Parts Unknown (so much so that he didn't share the name in the episode).
The cacio e pepe is rich and comes in a homemade crispy Parmigiano bowl.

Matricianella
@itslauraining
Cute little restaurant in a busier part of town. I've been here multiple times for their amatriciana and Roman fried artichoke.

La Matriciana dal 1870

This place is very homey and always filled with locals. Per the name, get the amatriciana here.

Ristorante le Mani in Pasta
@itslauraining
Wonderful, intimate and cozy restaurant in Trastevere known for their pasta. The carbonara is a winner but you can't go wrong with any of the pastas here.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Laurain Aydinian
Available for hire
Curated guides, tailor-made itineraries, and insider travel tips for unforgettable adventures in Italy.
Specializing in local food, wine, cocktails, and unique exploration - particularly in Rome but also in regions and towns north to south. I have experience planning trips to destinations ranging from small towns in Tuscany with a population of 29, to Italy's largest cities.
My recommendations are carefully selected based on quality, location, and overall experience. Typically in centrally located areas so that you won't have to travel too far from any city center to find the best of the best - without falling into tourist traps!
Ideal for solo travelers or couples, whether you're seasoned visitors or first-timers, my guides cater to those seeking a less mainstream, more DIY adventure with a mix of traditional sightseeing and authentic local experiences that emphasize the flavors of the country.
What's included in my travel planning services?
ONE: Planning a trip to Italy can be overwhelming, especially when it comes to finding the best places to see, do, and, most importantly, eat. My goal is to help you get clarity on what places to visit and when.
TWO: Make expert recommendations based on your interests, travel needs, your travel pace, foods & drinks you love, and the experiences you enjoy.
THREE: Make planning less stressful by saving you hours of research and help you to stop second guessing, narrow down your choices, and choose the best options for you.
Looking forward to helping plan your next trip! Let's chat.
