Trattoria Settimio

"Asia argento ci ha portato Anthony bourdain"

@frittella

"Best old-school comeback: Cesare al Pellegrino (Roma Centro) But as much as Parla loves exploring Rome's outer quartieri, there are some restaurants in the city centre she believes are worth wading through the crowds… and you won't have to queue. Like her next pick, Cesare al Pellegrino, just off Piazza Navona. "It's always surprising to me how easy it is to get a reservation at Cesare al Pellegrino," says Parla. "It's on Via Pellegrino and in one direction, you have hundreds of people standing in line for Osteria Fernanda and on the other, you have dozens of people in line for Barnum. Barnum is very good, but I'm not waiting in line for coffee, sorry." Parla's Barnum hack! "You just walk up to the counter and order coffee and don't have to sit down and wait!" Cesare al Pellegrino is the current incarnation of the 1930s trattoria Settimio al Pellegrino. "It became super famous when [Anthony] Bourdain went there on Parts Unknown," says Parla. "When the couple [who ran it] retired, an incredible couple took it over – Maria Pia and Leonardo from Cesare al Casaletto." The tiny tavern stays true to its pre-war pedigree and serves satisfying classic Roman dishes like picchiapò and Roman-style cod. "What Cesare al Pellegrino provides is the dope wine list that Leonardo and Maria Pia are known for," says Parla. "It's not a super-ambitious menu that's trying to do everything. They have retained Settimio's meatballs, which are basically smash burgers. Yeah, that place rules. It has online booking, which is a game changer.""

"Excellent restaurant et serveurs agréable et très bon conseils"

@marine.cbd

"Qui servono un piccolo menu di piatti semplici e di mercato, fatti a dovere, come la minestra di broccoli e arzilla, i totanetti alla diavola, gricia, carbonara e gli altri primi classici romani, con qualche omaggio ai vecchi patron (con le mitiche polpette alla Teresa). Il servizio è cordiale, i vini ben scelti: ottima novità in pieno centro."

"Teresa cooks up basic Roman dishes while husband Mario schmoozes and serves good food with bad wine."

@keijsophie

"Walking into Settimio al Pellegrino feels a bit like stepping into Rome’s golden dolce vita heyday; there are a handful of tables, a couple of Roman posters on the walls, and a tiny kitchen where owner Teresa stirs vats of pasta as Mario, her husband, ferries orders back and forth. Crowd-wise, it’s all regulars, many of whom have been coming here since they were children. Now they bring their children’s children."
