Enoteca Il Melograno

Southern Rome


This small, snug enoteca (wine bar) in Garbatella is run by two knowledgeable brothers who suggest the best wines from their 300-strong list without making you feel like a stupido. There’s a cheap set-dinner menu or you can choose dishes such as bruschette (grilled bread topped with tomatoes), crostini (toasts with toppings) and carpaccio (sliced cured meat) à la carte. Desserts are homemade and best accompanied by a fragrant dessert wine.
