The 25 Best Restaurants In Rome 2024

"Whether you’re looking to have a very late lunch or an early light dinner, Fafiuchè is the perfect place for apericena, the Italian word that combines aperitivo and cena and means something more than a snack but not quite a full dinner. They serve wines from Piedmont and Pugliese-inspired snacks, plus a few hot dishes like lasagna and the bagna cauda, a warm garlicky anchovy dip with vegetables. If you stay for dessert, order the bruschetta Fafiuchè—they take a slice of toasted bread and top it with thin shavings of cioccolato cremino, a drizzle of olive oil, and a sprinkle of sea salt." - gillian mcguire, annie replogle
