Roscioli Salumeria con Cucina, Rome
There are plenty of reasonable restaurants in the tourist hub that is Rome, but one gem stands out in the Campo di Fiori neighborhood. This family-run establishment, which combines a deli and a restaurant, has garnered rave reviews for its authentic produce, impeccably executed classic dishes (such as the Sicilian "pasta con le sarde" or the crunchy, mouth-watering Roman carbonara), and innovative culinary creations that incorporate gourmet ingredients sourced from beyond Italy.
As you step inside, your senses are immediately captivated by a display of cured meats and all the components necessary for the most exceptional antipasto you can imagine. In the midst of all this, you'll find closely placed tables that offer better lighting than your typical trattoria. Booking a table here will keep you close to the action and the atmosphere, but there are other rooms as well, including the cellar which is a good choice for a bit more privacy and a cooler, quieter environment, surrounded by an impressive selection of wines, whiskeys, and gins.
For starters, indulge in their selection of meats and antipasti, and then explore the menu for pasta dishes or any other enticing options. When it comes to selecting the perfect wine to complement your meal, don't hesitate to seek assistance from the knowledgeable waitstaff. They will bring you a curated selection to try, introducing you to fantastic wines you may have never encountered before.
The place remains open until midnight, six nights a week, and even then, they reluctantly turn away guests as they close their doors. If you're seeking an experience that goes beyond the usual restaurant visit, if you crave an adventure and an educational culinary journey, it's advisable to book early (online reservations are convenient). Settle down near the counter, savor the delightful ambiance, and congratulate yourself on making an excellent choice.
