The Best Restaurant in Trastevere, Rome

Background Illustration for Restaurants

Trastevere has always been known for its Left Bank bohemian appeal. A hip expat enclave with working-class Roman roots, the neighborhood is now lined with an almost overabundance of trattorias and wine bars. The Gianicolo area, at the top of the hill, is more subdued, with breathtaking views.

L'Osteria di Monteverde

$$ | Monteverde

Romans are starting to recognize Monteverde as a foodie hub, and this trattoria is one of the neighborhood's outstanding spots. The food ranges from the classics to carefully thought-out modern creations, but whatever you order, the quality of the produce shines. Dishes include hearty pastas, toasted veal tongue, and delicious onion soup. Desserts like cinnamon and pear cheesecake or tiramisu pair well with the selection of local dessert wines, like moscato from Terracina, a coastal town not far from Rome.
