Bar del Fico Ristorante

"Bar del Fico is what you might call "approachably hip." The entrance is an unassuming door on a charming cobblestoned passage near Piazza Navona. Head back to the "salotto del fico," where potted trees fill every corner and mismatched chairs crowd bar tables topped by chess boards. It's an ice-cold-martini kind of place; the bartenders are, unsurprisingly, masters of their craft. Come aperitivo time, there’s a generous spread of potato chips, olives, and other small bites. Bring your intellectual chat and your dancing shoes for the DJ set later on." - Maresa Manara
