Eating Out, Rome: 29 reviews and 13 photos
First evening, after I paid 88,00 euros for a simple dinner, my weiter told me, "food is expensive here but the cloths is cheap". Let me tell you what cost me so much in a simple trattoria; grilled meat for two, gnocchi with cheese for one, half liter of red wine, bottle of water and one caffee. I'll be polite and say, it was a robbery.
Day after day, four in a row, we went in a different restaurants and the food was too expensive and not good at all. The last day of our staying we had a simple lunch in one restaurant nearby Piazza della Spagna; seafood salate for two, glass of white wine for each and one coffee and the price was 47,00 euros. Just amazing!
Unique Suggestions: When travelling around, especially in Italy, I like to have good food and service. More or less I never look at the price list because complete lunch with drink and coffee, in whole of Italy, costs between 20-40 euros, with exeption of top class restaurants. Restaurants in Lombardy are more expensive than those in Veneto, restaurants in Veneto are more expensive than those in Emilia Romagna or Tuscany, so those in southern part of the country should be even less expensive. Rome, however, has the most expensive restaurants in Italy which offers food of law quality.
Most of the tourists avoid restaurants eating sandwiches out on the streets or ordering one pizza for two when in restaurants.
