The 42 Best Restaurants in Rome

"You'll need to reserve a table at this moody hot spot in advance. The kitchen turns out thoughtful, poetic dishes that push culinary boundaries, and the best way to understand it all is by going for one of the no-holds-barred tasting menus. Expect seasonality, creativity, and traditional ingredients, but don't expect typical Roman dishes. Chefs Giuseppe Lo Iudice and Alessandro Miocchi are so dedicated to sourcing local products that they often spend their mornings foraging for goodies in the forests and fields just outside the city." - Maresa Manara
