La Pergola
"Closed for refurbishment works until April 2024. Rome’s most famous roof garden, as well as the most international restaurant in Italy. From the terrace at La Pergola, Rome appears eternal and imperturbable, as it is so often described. The ambience here is hushed and elegant, with carpets and armchairs, silverware and fresh flowers, paintings and refined furniture all providing a magnificent setting for the superb views. Heinz Beck’s cuisine is classic and timeless, featuring much-loved favourites such as “fagottelle” filled with carbonara alongside more seasonal dishes such as broad bean and pea buttons with asparagus and nduja-flavoured baby squid, and turbot served with asparagus, seasonal mushrooms and wild garlic sauce. The cheese trolley and the desserts, including the delicious chocolate soufflé, are not to be missed. Choose between two separate wine lists: one dedicated to Italian labels, the other to wines from around the world, both featuring some excellent rare vintages (including classic labels from Tuscany and Bordeaux, some of which date from the beginning of the last century), as well as lesser-known labels selected by talented sommelier Marco Reitano." - Michelin Inspector
