A neighborhood like no other, Trastevere’s ivy-coated, cobblestone streets come alive at night, earning it comparisons to Greenwich Village and Paris’ Le Bank. This is where Romans choose to eat with their families and where young Romans go for nightlife. This old quartiere features some of Rome’s best loved foodie places, run by the same local families for generations.
Start the evening like all Romans do, with an aperitivo at one of Trastevere’s most adored trattorias.
