Al Chianti — Restaurant in Rome

Absolutely the best food we’ve had in Rome. Great local spot that has been around since 1914. Avoid the crowds and do yourself a favor and stop on by Al Chianti.

Hands down THE BEST CACIO E PEPE in all of Rome. ALL OF ROME! Alexandro will take great care of you and make the best recommendations on their menu.

Not only did we have lunch here 2 days in a row, I also left my gimbal on the chair in the afternoon. Even though I thought it was lost forever, when we came back in the evening (they shut down in the afternoon) Alexandro did not only recognize us, he had my gimbal handy and ready for me. $250 piece of equipment safe and sound!!! Amazing integrity!

Outside the wall, outside the tourist areas well worth the walk, taxi or bus. AN ABSOLUTE STOP!

My wife and I found Al Chianti while visiting Rome on our honeymoon. The wait staff were extremely friendly and we loved the atmosphere. It was quiet and relaxing.

We started by splitting the Tagliatelle ragú Lepre (rabbit). It was one of the best ragu pasta dishes I’ve ever had, it was meaty and the pasta was so fresh.

I then had the grilled sirloin and it came out on a sizzling hot skillet, sliced and cooked to perfection. There were roasted potatoes and charred rosemary, still burning as it came to the table. My wife had the eggplant parm and she said it was one of the best she’s ever had. It was creamy inside and charred on top to add additional texture.

By far the best meal I have had in Italy in a month. I had the Maltagliati Pasta w/ Chicory, Cheek Lad and Pecorino cheese. I truly had the food critic.moment from Ratatouille flashing back to when I was a child. I have tried the Eggplant Parmigiana (Parmigiane de Melanzane) at every restaurant I have been to and none of them come close to this one. Every dish was top notch and the service was just as great. The atmosphere was intimate but cozy. The dishes came out at the perfect time. I am truly astonished with this meal and am debating coming back every...
