Casa Bleve — Restaurant in Rome

Tucked away in a 16th-century palazzo near Piazza Navona, Casa Bleve is more than just a restaurant—it’s an experience. From the moment we stepped inside, we were struck by the elegance of the high vaulted ceilings and grand archways, creating an atmosphere that felt both historic and intimate.

One of the most fascinating aspects of dining here is knowing that beneath our feet lies a beautifully restored Roman wall from the Augustan age, visible in the restaurant’s stunning wine cellar. The sense of history is everywhere, yet it blends seamlessly with warm hospitality and outstanding cuisine.

The menu is a celebration of Italian flavors, with highlights like creamy burrata from Puglia served with fruit compote and delicate roasted sweet pepper rolls filled with tuna, capers, and anchovy pâté. Every dish felt carefully curated, and the wine selection was just as impressive. The staff were knowledgeable and passionate about their wines, helping us choose the perfect pairings to enhance our meal.

Casa Bleve isn’t just a place to eat—it’s a place to linger, savor, and enjoy. Whether you’re looking for a special evening out or simply want to experience Roman dining at its finest, this is a spot we’d return to again and again.

DO NOT GO! THIS RESTAURANT IS A PRETTY SCAM. We were 5 this evening at Casa Bleve. We could not have been more shocked and terribly disappointed from the fraudulent food that they serve: 2 of us got lamb chops - both orders were terrible because the lamb chops were pre-cooked. I tried a piece myself after hearing the complaints from both my father and my Daugther. Shame!!! The taste was horrible and the meat not worthy of the name. What a horrible way to cheat people. My 'fresh' pasta in lamb Raghu sounded great but was simply completely tasteless. My sons's fossili pasta was as he put it "much worse than any pasta I had in any Italian restaurant". I tasted it too and I agree. My wife's ravioli was 4 pieces of what she said 'tastes like nothing' Ouch! They made us very upset because we know we were SCAMMED. I'm not sure how it is that they have many reviews on tripadvisor and some on Yelp, which are most positive. I booked it based on these reviews. Unfortunately I must conclude that many of the reviews are fake. I hope my review helps others avoid these crooks! SHAME ON...

Ate at Casa Bleve for mine and my girlfriends' anniversary upon recommendation from a local family friend of ours. Our first night in Rome and wanted to try some classically roman food - this restaurant certainly fit the bill...

To start went for the Seabass Carpaccio with pine nuts and mint. This was delicate, the fish was fresh and the perfect start to the evening.

For mains, we went for the catch of the day with clams and fennel. The ingredients were clearly all very fresh and delicate tasting.

Desert, the Tiramasu was everything we could have wanted. Nothing like the alcohol soaked variety we're used to in the UK.

Our server (albeit not being able to speak English that clearly) was super attentive and made us feel very at home. Clearly an expert at picking out a suitable bottle of wine whilst also being kind enough to give us a few slices of Panattoni.

Would personally recommend Casa Bleve to anyone who is looking for a higher end restaurant offering classically...
