In a 'hood riddled with tourist traps, this backstreet eatery – tucked inside a little house next to grandiose Palazzo Scanderberg – stands out. The kitchen mixes Roman classics with more contemporary options and, unusually, includes a hefty number of seafood choices – the linguini alla pescatora (handmade pasta with shellfish and baby tomatoes) and fried fillet of baccalà (cod) are simply sensational.
Tables spill onto the quaint cobbled street in summer.
