Where to eat Mediterranean food in Vatican City: The Best Restaurants and Bars
Find out what Mediterranean restaurants to try in Vatican City. 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.

Really looked forward to dinner here based on write ups. We didnât get what the reviews suggested. Ordered sparking water as usual, got the water - the sparkle had gone. Maybe a hint of gas in the water, but would need scientific evidence. Ordered wine, the wine cork split - normally that would mean either a new bottle or at least decant it. Nup - we drank wine and cork pieces. Not great. I ordered pig cheek and pasta dish, got the pasta in spades, again, would need a DNA test for the pig part of it. My wife had mushroom and squid in a pasta - could have come out of a can.Overall very disappointed. I hate writing bad reviews when everyone else has had a great night out, so maybe it was just an off night. Iâll never know, we wonât do it again.Thank you Chrisk I m sorry you doesnât enjoy your meal at ToccoFerro I hope to see you again Give us another chance

I cannot imagine a dining experience more perfect than this. The ambience was so cozy and intimate. The owner is a wonderful man who is so much fun to talk to. And the food... simply incredible. I ordered the Carbonara and it was the best meal I've ever had Rome

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.

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.

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.
