"There was a time when we thought nothing could surpass a bowl of amatriciana. Then we tried the amatriciana pizza at Seu Pizza Illuminati. Its dough, topped with rich, tangy tomato sauce, crispy guanciale, shreds of pecorino, and cracks of black pepper, made us realize we were wrong. Located on the south side of Trastevere, this stylish pizzeria is famous for its creative menu and light dough. Don’t miss their pesto Trapanese pizza, with ripe and roasted tomatoes, crunchy almond slivers, and fragrant mix of garlic, basil, and fennel fronds, or the white pizza piled with fior di latte, sausage, and broccoletti. Their fried starters, like supplì and crispy zucchini flowers stuffed with mozzarella and anchovy, are particularly delicious, too." - annie replogle

"Cool and minimalist with Saarinen-style furniture and contemporary art, Seu Pizza Illuminati isn't your typical old-school pizzeria. The pies incorporate local products in nontraditional ways; even classics will surpass anything you've ever had. Keep an eye on the antipasti; the fritti and deep-fried tramezzino sandwich are both delicious. It's no surprise that the chef has been winning award after award for his amazing and creative work." - Maresa Manara
