Pasta in the Pan, Roman to the Core
Taverna Trilussa, located in the heart of Trastevere, has been a beloved Roman institution since 1910. Set behind a leafy, lantern-lit façade, the restaurant channels a nostalgic charm with exposed brickwork, vintage photographs, and a warm, bustling energy. Its enduring popularity among locals and visitors alike lies in its no-nonsense devotion to Roman tradition — hearty, generous, and unmistakably authentic.
The menu centres around classic pasta dishes, many of which are famously served in the pan they were cooked in. Favourites include tonnarelli cacio e pepe, rigatoni alla carbonara, and bucatini all’Amatriciana — each dish prepared with precision and a deep respect for local ingredients. The ravioli mimosa, a house secret for generations, is another signature, blending delicate pasta with a rich, creamy filling that keeps diners returning.
With its intimate courtyard seating, candlelit tables, and an extensive list of Italian wines, Taverna Trilussa offers a quintessential Roman dining experience. It’s a place to linger, laugh, and savour — where the traditions of the past are proudly carried into every plate.
