About the restaurant

Clorofilla is the new restaurant and cocktail oasis the locals can’t stop talking about. And who can blame them? Tucked away on a quiet side street footsteps from piazza Campo de’ Fiori, it’s the ultimate place for dinner and late night drinks.
Step inside this locale to be immersed in a completely different atmosphere…warm tones, good vibes, bricked walls, a stunning L-shaped bar with over 100 liquors, a cozy and trendy dining area and plants surrounding the whole setting. Not to mention a tree!
Stop by for aperitivo (€15) to indulge in a wide selection of drinks accompanied by cured meats and cheese boards. Italian gourmet cuisine as well as Roman delicacies with a twist are in store for you. From seasonal tartares to carbonara with truffle shavings, you’re in for a pleasant surprise at Clorofilla. And did I mention that everything is homemade – yes even the bread and sauces. And if you’ve got a sweet tooth, wait until you taste their desserts!

About the restaurant

COCKTAILS, CRUDO & PIZZA

The rarity of a Rome rooftop terrace with views of the city’s most iconic landmarks, makes W Rome's upper floor all the more exceptional. It’s here that Seu Pizza con Vista, it serves cocktails, crudo and pizza, bringing the later to a whole new level with Pier Daniele Seu, winner of the Best Pizzaiolo 2022 award.

Been here before. Pizza with a view! How can you beat that? The staff at the W Hotel as a whole are pretty great, friendly and upbeat. Wine list is pricey, but you can find good wines at your price point.

About the restaurant

Fine dining in Italy is an institution as secret recipes are passed down from generation to generation.

The dining experience at ALLEGRÍO gives a new flavor to traditional Italian cuisine represented by the combination of local and regional Roman dishes and Pizza Napoletana.

At Allegrío it is not the customer who adapts to the place, but it is the place that adapts to the customer! In fact, for each state of mind, a meeting point has been designed for atmosphere, design, and menu.

Each room stands out with wallpapers, decorations and the ad hoc hand-painted designs.

The sun, logo and symbol of ALLEGRÍO, has four souls that correspond to the four rooms of the restaurant: JOYFUL, LUCKY, INTREPID, IN LOVE.

About the restaurant

Il Ristorante Traiano domina il centro storico di Roma con la sua sala principale che si affaccia sui Fori e su Piazza Venezia e che è adiacente ai Mercati di Traiano e all’omonima colonna. Una nuova idea di esperienza gastronomica che fa della memoria il suo punto di partenza per una cucina elegante e raffinata.

La creatività e la professionalità della squadra, composta da chef Alessandro Zitelli, sommelier e personale di sala, rendono questo luogo un’occasione unica per scoprire la vera cucina italiana.

Ma Traiano non è solo cucina, è anche un luogo dove trascorrere una serata piacevole dopo cena, gustando un cocktail o un calice di vino selezionato con cura dalla carta che comprende etichette nazionali ed internazionali.

La Champagnerie, situata al piano inferiore del ristorante, è un’esperienza di lusso immersa nella storia di Roma, antica e moderna.

Il ristorante fa parte della storia di Roma e della sua cucina, essendo sorto sulle ceneri della vecchia Taberna Ulpia.
