places offering typical Roman fare to suit a range of budgets, as
well as some good, restaurants offering international cuisines such
as Indian, Chinese, Vietnamese and Japanase.
Restaurants usually open for lunch from 12.30 to 3 pm, but many are
not keen to take orders after 2 pm. In the evening, restaurants open
from 8 pm, although in tourist areas they will often open erlier. |

The best areas to look for good "Trattorie" are Trastevere
and between Piazza Navona and the Tevere.
Generally, the restaurants near Stazione Termini are to be avoided
if you want to pay reasonable prices for good-quality food.
The side streets around Piazza Navona and Campo de' fiori harbour
many good-quality, low-priced trattorie and pizzerie, and the areas
of San Lorenzo (to the east of Termini, near the university) and
Testaccio (south of the city centre near the Piramide di Cestio
mausoleum) are popular eating districts with the locals.
Trastevere offers an excellent selection of rustic.style eating
places hidden in tiny piazzas, and pizzerie where it doesn't cost
the earth to sit at table on the street.

| Bear in mind that pizzerie are usually
open only in the evenings. |
