Best Italian food near Vatican City, Lazio, Italy
Reviews on Italian food in Vatican City, Lazio, Italy. Sure, Vatican City is tiny—110 acres—but it houses the world's largest Catholic church (St. Peter's Basilica) and has perhaps the best collection of artistic masterpieces in the world (the Sistine Chapel, Michelangelo's Pieta, the Laocoon Group, etc.). And maybe only 800 people live here, but one of them's the Pope. It's a pretty good argument for quality over quantity.

We had a lovely meal here recently. They have a mixture of genuine and unique Italian dishes along with the tried and true favorites, such as meatballs. All tasted home made. Service was impeccable. Prices extremely reasonable. I will go again before I leave.

Very close to te Vatican museum, a typical Roman fast food. You can taste the traditional food of Rome like Porchetta, specialities from Italy like Prosciutto crudo San Daniele, buffalo mozzarella. You can drink draft beer or a glass of best Italian wine

Lovely little restaurant that is run by amazing and friendly staff. Recommended family members who are visiting Rome to come in for food as it was delicious! Perfect place to come and eat after a long day of sightseeing. Atmosphere was nice and relaxed and the decor is lovely and very trendy. Will be back next time Iâm in Rome!!

We went today there and the food was absolutely amazing! I had some pasta with clams (10 euro) and my boyfriend lasagna (8 euro). They were both on the menu of the day and it was the best choice we could have made. And then, we got an extraordinary tiramisu (I have no words to describe it - I do not usually eat tiramisu, but this one... I could not stop ). I think we are going back for sure. They also have very good artizanal beer (5 euro). A must try!

This was a nice little shop close to our hotel and not too far from the Vatican. The pizza is not too expensive and is very fresh. It's not the classic pizza you would have elsewhere, but it is definitely tasty.

Not far from St. Peter's church.Nice café, customers are nearly all foreign travelers and tourists. Good cappuccino! The croissants that we had weren't something special, they were a little too inflated and puffy, but it was ok.There also a large seating area, but you will be charged a service fee for table service.A bit on the pricy side. But the staff was very friendly and quick to serve.All in all, it was nothing sensational but you may try it if you are in the area.

After Vatican Museums we went to Pizza Zizza. Worth every cent. Can't believe how good it can be beside bussy street, small tables. They treat you like a family. They brought us everything we asked. Mixed pizza platter, some extra slices, some taste examples.... After all that rubber duck sound when you leave some tip is just awesome. Roberto is crazy guy who makes great Pizza.

Popped in for a snack after a long tour of The Vatican. Only had a Lasagna but it was the best one I had the whole time we were in Rome.

Itâs a perfect place for the people who like tasty sandwiches with fresh ingredients cooked fast. To be well satisfied be sure that your wishes are transferred to the barman before you got the order;) we came here on the October 17-th, 2019 expecting itâs a fastfood and was not disappointed! It was the best panini ever (Parma and Modena, coka cola and beer - â¬14 in total for two persons). The barman was very positive and friendly, he take care of you needs cooking from the heart and his please keeping it clean. At the end weâve got a compliment from the barman and I would say that it is one of the thing needs to be tasted. Do not listen feedbacks from the people who visited this place thinking itâs a restaurant and was disappointed! I recommend.

We dined here two nights ago and had fabulous food and service. The grilled octopus was the best Iâve ever had. We ate outside in the upstairs patio. We recommended the place to some acquaintances last night and they enjoyed it immensely. We just finished dinner there again and weâre not disappointed.
