Rome remains one of the most influential food cities in the world, deeply rooted in simplicity and respect for ingredients. Roman cuisine celebrates a small number of elements used with precision, from pecorino cheese and guanciale to fresh pasta made daily. Classic dishes such as carbonara, cacio e pepe, and amatriciana continue to define comfort food on a global scale. In 2025, Rome’s food scene thrives not only in historic trattorias but also in modern kitchens that reinterpret tradition without losing its soul.
