Trattoria Da Teo

Nestled in the charming Trastevere neighborhood, Trattoria Da Teo is a beloved spot known for its genuine Roman flavors and warm atmosphere. This family-run trattoria captures the essence of traditional Roman cuisine, serving up dishes that have been passed down through generations.

An old-school Roman trattoria with a welcoming, laid-back vibe. Known for its fresh ingredients and home-cooked flavors, the carciofi alla giudia (fried artichokes) are a standout. It’s perfect for a classic Roman dining experience. They also have great seafood dishes.



A very old school, trattoria in Rome. Delicious carbonara, dessert, and of course - carciofi - to start. We were probably the only "English" speaking people in there. 

ROMAN CLASSICS IN TRASTEVERE

Offers classic pastas and seasonal artichokes (in both the Jewish and Roman styles). Reservations highly encouraged. 

This is a super popular place but the food will impress!

Classic trattoria with excellent pasta & a cozy vibe.
